Lesson 2

Habits

In psychology, habit is a behavior pattern ac-

quired by frequent repetition or physiological

exposure that shows itself in regularity or in-

creased facility of performance. A habit can be

a part of any activity, ranging from eating and

sleeping to thinking and reacting. However,

every individual carries good and bad habits.

Therefore, it is one’s responsibility to keep the

good habits and to reduce the bad habits.
