August is ending in one week. Your mind is not still on vacation, is it? I wonder how to stop idling time immediately -But to stop what we want to stop, the easiest way is to become keenly aware that stopping such bad habit is more advantageous than continuing it, I suppose
: I started drinking like others when I became twenty after I obeyed the law honestly until I became twenty. (in our country, drinking alcohol is legal from twenty)
But when I became psychotic depression, I stopped drinking alcohol readily. Giving up drinking was better for me than going for a drink with office members after work. At that time, medication was a convenient excuse to turn down invitations to go for a drink with office members.
Another experience: Just after I recovered from psychotic depression, I started to work at a public corporation as a temporary personnel staff. There weregroupof women who were always exchanging slander and complaint at lunch time. At first, I thought I had to get along well and I was having lunch with them, but I couldn't stand abusing fight, so one day, I rejected to have lunch with them and left the group. This was the first time I learned how important and easy to get rid of bad habits and stressful relationship immediately, and realized the silliness of abusing
. I still cannot always practice getting rid of bad habits I must stop, though. Unfortunately, psychotic depression came back due to the sudden change of environment, and I was fired in three months. Sometimes, external change can lead to stop habits we want to stop
: I hear there are people who didn't buy new digital TV sets and stopped watching TVafter Or we can choose something more positive and better to do instead of what we want to stop
: For example, drink barley tea instead of sweet juice.
Then, some people might wonder how to have others stop what we want them to stop. If you conclude that it's no use trying to oblige others to change, all there is to it, though... stopsmoking to the smokers' face. At best, I can think of keeping away physically from people who smoke or exchange slander and expect that I'm feeling annoyed... I remember seeing a rough advice on newspaper recommending parents to destroy game machine accidentally on purpose if their children are absorbed in video game neglecting studies
. I hear this article was attacked and blamed -but if such children are in great distress with homework for the summer at the end of summer vacation, this is divine justice, so don't help them until children learn a lesson. -Me? As a child less than ten, when I played video game at a friend's place for the first time, I played too poor and, and video game became one of the causes of an inferiority complex. Since then, I've never thought that I want video games. As for this, -both video games and online games-
to set a system to show warning sign if players keep on playing for more than forty-five minutes or so? If they want to avoid criticism from parents and teachers, that is. Because not only children but also adults carry a risk to fall into game addiction and neglect work, study and daily life until they end up in cripple. Cases of such addiction and crime like sticky fingers and sex crime can be already illness out of control, so report to the medical institution or other proper organization, or as the case may be, the police. -Well... it was a free will of each of us to start bad habits, then it's also a free will of each of us to put an end to such bad habits
. At least, some addictive things are already known as addictive things -like tobacco and drug-, so it's a wise choice to avoid touching them from the beginning. As Iconfessed, the reason I still haven't dabbled in smartphone and social networking service and microblog is that I'm afraid that there is a possibility to fall into addiction or stressed out as is already reported.
