Procedural Executive Function is my name for a frame of understanding executive function as a series of steps, which I believe can be individually understood and zero’d in on when people fail to act on their ostensible goals.

This sequence goes over what PEF is, and how to problem-solve what’s going wrong when Executive Dysfunction occurs, from the philosophical base of “how sure are you that you actually want to do the thing you think you want to do?” to the final problem solving steps involved in actually accomplishing your goals.
