Actually, you can control your habits!One way is just to think about what rewards they give you. What do you get from the habits, or what do they help you avoid? You can also think about whether you can get the rewards you want in other ways. For example, instead of avoiding homework, you might take on the challenge and feel the reward of getting it done! Besides, think how great it would be if you didn't have the habits. Let yourself know that you will have a great feeling of happiness when you get out of a habit.
When a habit tempts(诱惑) you, take a few deep breaths in and out. Remind yourself of your goal. Give yourself a little encouragement, and tell yourself, “You've got this.”

Is Watching TV a Waste of Time?
Our parents care about us, they believe we should keep on studying all the time then we can get good grades. So they always forbid us to watch TV. They think that watching TV is a waste of time.
Now television is playing a very important role in our life. In my opinion, a television is like a book. We can learn a lot of knowledge from it. Some programs can help us to know the news around the world. Some can teach us how to do a scientific experiment.
So I don’t think that watching TV is a waste of time. Our parents should not stop us from watching TV. They should help us choose the interesting, healthy and helpful programs.

You can also think about whether you can get the rewards you want in other ways. For example, instead of avoiding homework, you might take on the challenge and feel the reward of getting it done! Besides, think how great it would be if you didn't have the habits. Let yourself know that you will have a great feeling of happiness when you get out of a habit.
