In 1907, William James complains that psychologists have ignored the topic of "the energies of men"—that is, the practical stamina available for "running one's mental and moral operations".
Have good frameworks emerged for this in the past century?

Are you familiar with spoon theory? It's primarily used in chronic illness and disability communities, to describe life on the low-end of the spectrum of "practical stamina."

Yes! A useful practical framework, though I'm still hoping for an mechanistic/explanatory theory.
