willed

Willed describes something done through deliberate exercise of will or determination.

A willed effort or willed change happens because someone consciously chose to make it happen, not through natural occurrence or accident.

The word often appears in compounds: strong-willed people are resolute and determined; weak-willed ones lack resolve.

Self-willed suggests stubborn independence, while ill-willed indicates malicious intent.

Her success was entirely willed, not accidental.
