Habit is the intersection of knowledge (what to do), skill (how to do), and desire (want to do). Habit is formed when you practice doing something over and over again. It becomes easier each time until it becomes automatic. Habits are formed when you do something regularly enough that it becomes second nature, like brushing your teeth or washing your hands.
