Hi everyone

I hope I'm in the right place to ask this question. I just looked for a forum about the book in many places and couldn't find it.
I would appreciate your help!

I have a question about what is written at the beginning of the book:

To change a habit there needs to be a meeting point between knowledge, skills, and desire

I didn't quite understand what it means: knowledge and skills.
The knowledge - the theoretical paradigm / what to do / why
Skills - how to do
The motivators - the drive/motivation/wanting to do

What is meant by knowledge - the theoretical paradigm?
And what do the skills mean? What is their definition?

Let's say someone wants to quit smoking - how do the knowledge and skills come into play?
I would appreciate an explanation and examples
Thank you very much everyone!

motisocial86,

Just a reply to "Let's say someone wants to quit smoking - how do the knowledge and skills come into play?"

Since GTD is very much a healthy methodology for "Getting Things Done" as easily as possible then the opposite principle would seem to be true for 'NOT Getting Things Done' and that would be to make "getting something done" as difficult as possible . . . to the point its simply way more trouble than it would be worth by sapping so much energy [time] . . . mostly energy . . . that one simply can't . . . over time . . . be bothered?

As you see GTD fit
