"Habits are habits", they never spare us so easily. Interests and hobbies are good things but what is habit and why does it stick with us so badly? Are habits always so bad thing? , oh well.... there are too many questions arise in one's mind when we talk about issues related to us and 'Habit' are one of them. lets find some answers first.
Habit is a Bad Habit?
No man and no habit is bad. It is the outcomes of a habit that decide if habit is useful or not for a person. For example: Habit of liquor is a good thing for your government sometimes as it contributes in economy in form of tax on every bad bottle of alcohol you purchase but it is a bad thing for your liver health! even you are healthy after drinking it, still scientifically its food value is null so actually you pay lot of money daily and for nothing!! so promise to leave this habit this instance. If you are having a habit of wake up early then it will not a benefit for others and not many people observe it around you but you will have very good benefits from it like a better health, better efficiency and more time to accomplish your day tasks.
So next time please don't blame your habits but try to keep up with habits which are prolific for you.

What is the difference between hobby, interest and a habit?
Hobby- A habit of useful acts that you do daily because of your intense interest. These are generally observed by people around you and very prolific, sometimes career-wise also! Writing, gardening, reading, playing, watching movies or seasons, being a gamer, climb mountains, collecting rare things, helping others all kind of hobbies you can see in peoples around the world.
Interests- these aren't habits, it is just things which you like to do or want to experience on some point of life but it is generally not regular like a hobby.
Habit- when an act become inseparable part of your life simply it is known as habit. Habit is nothing to do with good or bad. Everyone has habits. The result of habit matters most in one's life but sometime some habits are just neither useful nor bad for anyone which is so interesting, we'll discuss in last of the article.
As our brain accept those acts which we like to do again and again because our brain chemical 'Dopamine' drives us to do so. We feel intense pleasure to do those things like drinking that feels like it relaxes us and same for smoking, these are bad habits according to people but this is applicable for drinking tea and coffee also, those aren't good for health either but they have some clinically proven benefits also. The case of liquor and smoking weeds are the worst as you pay for a material that ultimately ruin you and sometimes everyone's life related to you. A very general habit that sometimes do good and bad both, is-Waking up late in the morning- it is bad as you know since very long time but study shows that most achievers of the history worked very late in night and they generally woke up very late, in our teen age it is general habit for all of us. I leave it on you that it is bad or a good habit.
Some habits which are proved to be neither useful nor harmful are like following cases-:
1.Einstein never completely grew out of his odd habits. His chauffeur reports that he once plucked a grasshopper off the ground and ate it. He would also take his violin along on birdwatching treks, playing music with tears streaming down his face.
2.Thomas Edison’s research associates had to pass a tough interview process, which included eating a bowl of soup under the famous inventor’s eye. Edison’s soup scrutiny checked whether potential employees seasoned food before tasting it. If they added salt to soup they hadn’t tried, Edison automatically dismissed them. The test aimed to weed out those who started out with too many assumptions.
3.An employee reported that Charles Dickens couldn’t stand to have a hair out of place, so the writer kept his comb nearby and ran it through his hair hundreds of times a day.
4.Steve jobs dabbled his feet into toilet to soak for relieving his work stress.
So do you see how habits can change you sometimes and sometimes they are nothing but a part of daily routine like we eat and breath. Finally we can say that have a habit but always aware of their outcomes, that way you can keep up with your habit in a good sense.
Stay Habitual!
