Volition is the actual exercise of the power the mind has to order the consideration of any idea, or the forbearing to consider it. --Locke.

When an immanent, or settled state of, choice, is one which controls or governs a series of actions, we call that state a predominant volition; while we give the name of subordinate volitions to those particular acts of choice which carry into effect the object sought for by the governing or ``predominant volition.'
