In response to the OP,
I believe the flaw you're detecting is in your definition of want. If you define want as something we do for a desired outcome that adds complexity with conflicting desires, instincts and threats. If you define want as to feel a need, then I believe that simplifies the equation. We have lots of wants. Wanting something is the detection of the need which lights the fuse on the decision. I believe action come from volition, cause and affect, a want is one potential case and the act is the volition or implementation of the decision.
IMO, I would have said I only do what I decide to do, whether I want to or not.

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
