I think the distinction between mental and physical is of the utmost importance.
Deciding I need to lose weight is a mental process. Medically, I have a doctor who tells me that every time I see him, so the decision is based on scientific fact.
I accept the suggestion of the doctor. It is true that I need to lose weight.
It is very true that the logical next step is to take subsequent actions to accomplish that.
But I'm a human being. What is logical is not always what I will do.
Thus, the decision means nothing without action.

PD, what you have done now is criticize the action and declare it invalid...not prove that it wasn't an action. It was an action lacking the necessary subsequent actions.
