My habits and Me

Hello steemians,

Greetings to you all, I'm delighted to participate on this fantastic contest titled: My habits and Me organized by @ruthjoe on this wonderful community of steem4nigeria. So let's get straight to point,

What is your opinion on habits

In my opinion, habit can be seen as a learned behavior or characters that an individual continuously or time to time exhibit that eventually affects his or her well-being in the society. And that could be positive or negative.

Are there habits you have that people around you have complained about? Mention them.

Yeah, I have some habits that people around me often complained about, coz we are humans, we are bound to have habits, so my habits are;

• Procrastinating: This is one of the negative habits that has been dealing with me, for sometime now and that, eventually makes people around me complained alot, especially my loved ones, though it's never a good habit or character but I'm trusting the Almighty to help me out of it.

• Gossiping: Before, it's women that we all know to be the champions of amebo (gossiping) but to be honest Men are taking over or we are already on the mission of taking over, or perhaps champions now, speaking from my perspective, I'm one of them, I sometimes loved to hear talk and talk, like gisting for cruising sometimes though, thus, a lot of my female friends, often refers to me as amebo, and classified me as part of their gender. No way😊 I'm a Man though.

• And lastly Over lateness to events or an important meetings: This occur to me as a result of my African mentality, on the popular used of Africa time, and that affects me negatively, coz each time there's gonna be an important event, I do say to myself, I'm not the anchor, so let me take my time and the habits is dealing with me now. These and many more.

To this important question, I would gladly say, the habits of active listening, yes active listening has really really helped my life a lot, irrespective of other negative aforementioned habits, but I can attest active listening helped my whole life alot even people around me like @owulama, @vickyson and @dave-hanny can also testify about that.

Because, I hardly give wrong information or impressions on what I heard from friends and families, despite the amebo (gossip) in me,
Active listening would be my number one on this topic and any other one follows like reading, forgiveness, adequate sleeping, balance diet etc, actually helped me over the years in life.

Do you think habits can be learnt or do you think all the habits we have came from our parents as a result of birth?

Habits are not solely depend by birth or inherited from parents, but is a learned behavior it can be developed and changed from time to time, and depend on individual desires to make it change for good or bad. So habits is a learnt behavior.
