Well, the computer term came from "bootstrap loader" which was a very short program that could hand off to something more complex.
In turn, "bootstrap loader" came from the idiom to pull oneself up by the bootstraps, meaning to get going, put in extra effort, and solve the problem yourself. More modern slang might be "get over it," "deal with it," or "suck it up."
The bootstrap idiom comes from a story by Baron Munchausen who claimed to have pulled himself up by the bootstraps to carry himself out of a swamp where he was sinking.
