The Cascade from Thought to Action

The actions I take often begin with a single thought arising in my mind... If I am mindful and my will is fully intact, there is a pause in between the thought and the action, deciding whether or not to follow up on the thought.

But my mind also has a tendency to jump from track to track, resulting in either very short abbreviated actions (following each thought to proceeding action briefly), or doing nothing at all, stuck in jumping from thought to thought without any action to follow.

If I want to take a course of action, it is often a challenge to stay on the track, the path that leads to the desired action.
