A '''skill''' is the learned [[capacity]] to carry out pre-determined results often with the minimum outlay of [[time]], [[energy]], or both. Skills can often be divided into [[domain]]-general and domain-specific skills. For example, in the domain of [[work]], some general skills would include time management, teamwork and [[leadership]], self [[motivation]] and others, whereas domain-specific skills would be useful only for a certain job. Skill usually requires certain environmental [[stimuli]] and situations to assess the level of skill being shown and used.
