Even though most people know that what they are doing is not good for other

people or themselves, they unconsciously continue to do the same thing over and over again.

Their bad habit makes them unpleasant to other people. It is difficult to break our bad habits.

Most habits are built from early childhood. Many parents try to fix children's bad habits, but

our bad habits often live with us to the death. Actually, bad habits are comfortable in a

order something. Some superiors always used dirty words to us without any reasons or to get

rid of their stress. I thought that the people's character had some problems, but the behavior
