It probably has less to do with a weakness of will and more to do with perhaps realizing later down the road that this, too, is the wrong path. I guess I'm not the kind of person who sticks with something simply because that's what they've been doing and have decided they will do so long as it is reasonable to do so. But I digress...
The Myth of Sisyphus is actually a philosophy book by Albert Camus. He basically explains how even from nihilism there are clear ways to reason out of nihilism. What he actually ends up doing is making another philosophy, called Absurdism, which is basically nihilism but makes a big deal about the conflict between the human search for meaning and the inability to find any. I'm mostly interested how he reasons around the solution of suicide (to handling this situation), but as typical of philosophers the logical trip there is rather dry and boring.
