This may have some connection to the akrasia discussions-- what are non-destructive methods (or even beneficial methods) for getting from thought to action? I'm assuming that thinking well is as much an action as physical movement-- there's some difference since a lot of people have preferences and talent for one or the other-- but subjectively, I find there's an overlap.

Is there a qualitative difference between the methods that work to change your own behavior and methods to change other people's?
