In your arm, there is a series of unconscious processes. The conscious point where you think you're doing it is a good half second after your brain has already prepared the action. In that particular instance, that would be an example where your conscious self is actually not initiated in the movement,. It's actually occurring to some extent after it. We experience consciousness as immediate, don't we? I mean, we have this sense of being in the here and now. And certainly motor acts have to be built up over time.
