This might also be why I once said I didn't have an understanding of how people did things they didn't feel like doing.

Do you still feel this way, or do you feel that you understand what I meant in Action and Habit? Have you changed any of your decision-making methods?

I think I understand, sort of, but I haven't actually changed my decision-making methods. I don't even know how I would begin to go about doing that. Also, would changing my decision-making methods tend to increase or reduce urge-satisfaction?
