implementation intentions
type: Concept
broader: action control
definition: A goal intention specifies a desired future state in the form of “I intend to perform/achieve Z!” (e.g., to exercise frequently/to be thin). However, merely setting a goal, or wanting very much to achieve it, is not sufficient to actually attain it. [Source: Encyclopedia of Social Psychology; Implementation Intentions]
