Regarding Jake his state of mind really did play a role into not being compatible with Order, Jake believed himself to be so UTTERLY HELPLESS that any chance of getting Power seemed out of reach, when Ella found him and gave him a pill he was doing exactly that, he absolutely believes he is incapable of doing anything, of having the power to do something, even when he struggled he believed it was useless.
So when he got the ability to influence others to do his will he jumped into that, no need to do something, just control others to do it for you, how would someone like that develop Power as trait.
Now compare that to Michael, his core belief is to gain a strength of his own, to not rely on anyone else, there is no need to make others do something for him, he can and he will do things by himself, this guy's mindset is made for Power.
Now as for Jake losing his chance at Order i think the main reason is simply because we can kill him, i don't expect characters who can die to have a lot of importance on the plot, unless we are talking about Mc bringing people back from death, in that case maybe.
But considering Jake's path on the otherworld he is still on the same mindset, controled by strings pulled by something much more powerfull, he still believes he is helpless, now if you help him things are interesting, Mc is being held back by a will against hiw own, he has the means to escape but a opposing will stops him, Jake can use his authorithy to command Mc to escape using all his power to even things out, by helping Jake he mentions how this was the first time he managed to escape.
If this is a change in mindset i don't know but i think i'ts interesting how Jake lacked Power and Mc was held back by Authorithy so when Jake helped he gave Mc Authorithy to escape and in exchange achieved the Power he needed to escape too.
