Motion vs Action Flowchart
flowchartThis flowchart visualizes the difference between being in motion and taking action. Motion involves planning and strategizing but doesn't directly produce results. Action, on the other hand, leads to a tangible outcome.

A[Motion: Planning, Strategizing, Learning] --> B{Produces Result?}
B -- No --> C[No Outcome]
B -- Yes --> D[Action: Behavior delivering outcome]
D --> E[Desired Outcome]Habit Formation Cycle
flowchartThis diagram illustrates the habit formation process, starting with repetition, leading to neural changes and automaticity.
