Habits change into character. Now, this is something powerful. Something that can change the way we lead our lives, ain’t it?  Let us today have a look at some more questions related to habits, that might be asked in iELTS Speaking Section.

How can you develop a good habit?

In my opinion, the only way to develop a good habit is by repetition. One needs to do the thing again and again, until it becomes a habit, until it comes out naturally. One needs to be prepared for tough times, rough times, when one feels like giving up, one needs to have a support system to move them forward.

If someone makes an annoying sound what do you say?

In my case, I would say, depends on my mood at that point of time. If I am normal, not pissed off at anything, I would ignore it, annoying sounds rarely irritate me. However, if I am annoyed over something, I might just ask the other person to keep shut.

How can we get rid of bad habits?

I think lot of patience and perseverance is required to leave a bad habit. One need to tell oneself why they want to leave the habit. And steps to avoid doing the habit need to made every moment. Just before doing it, one needs to tell themselves that they are better off without the habit.

I think reminders can be of great help in getting rid of bad habit. Like, if someone is addicted to smoking, a wallpaper that smoking is bad for health can help. Or, a self written note on the cigarette packets kept at home, of the ill effects of smoking might also be of help.Even more joining with those people who are trying to leave the same habit, helps leaving it more easier. Because in moments when the person becomes weak, it is the support group that tends to help the person in moving ahead from the habit.

Which bad habit do you think would be the most difficult to get rid of? Why?

I think smoking is that one habit that is most difficult to get rid of. Because, by the time people think about leaving the habit, they already become so much acquainted with it and so much habitual to it that leaving the habit is very difficult.

Which good habit do you think would be the most difficult to develop? Why?

For me, getting up early is that one habit that is becoming very difficult to develop. It has been for such a long time that I never thought about getting up early, that doing it in a consistent manner is that one thing I have been trying for so long. Also, by the time I complete my work and think off sleeping it is already quite late in the night, making it more difficult to get up early.

Which habit is the most important for parents to set as an example of for their children?

I think the habit of saying truth is very important for parents to set an example for their children. We need to tell the world that although truth has the longer path, it is the only one that prevails and that can be done only with the help of parents.

Do you cut people off in the middle of there stories and conversations?

No, I rarely do that. For most part I try to understand the other person story or point of view but when I realise that no matter what, the conversation is not going to lead us anywhere I tend to cut off the conversation.

Are we be born with our bad habits? Or do we acquire them from the environment surrounding us?

Definitely not. We as humans are born with nothing except the body. It is through practice and the environment that we get, that children develop habits. For example, a person who grows up in a family where the mother is beaten off and there is no respect for females tend to be disrespect women in his later lives. Of for example, some one born in a family where drinking and smoking are very natural and obvious things to do, will more likely adopt these habits in his or her life, than the peer.

Do you think beauty is the same for every person?

I believe beauty is independent of everything. So, everyone sees it in a different way. For example, may be a bright coloured gown be beautiful for me but someone who likes cold colours might not love it. Or, someone may find peace and beauty while admiring a beach while for some it might bring in the waves of fear.

Do you think that different cultures think about beauty differently?

When it comes to outer appearance of beautiful, I think definitely yes. Cultures have their own implications of beautiful. For a country like India, may be a fair, long hair, traditional clothes kind of a girl might be beautiful but for someone in may be America, the beauty could be defined by some other parameter. Or like, people in the western find the eastern and south eastern countries beautiful and vice versa. But, in the end, when it comes to inner beauty, irrespective of the culture people have the same opinion.

What do you think of plastic surgery?

I think when it comes down to doing it for medical reasons, it is good, it is a boon. Like people who get burn, if they do it, I think it is acceptable. But, when it comes to enhancing yourself and trying to be someone you are not, I won’t prefer plastic surgery. It brings with it lot of complications. It might be possible that one does not like the changes after plastic surgery or may be plastic surgery does not goes well.

In my opinion, for physical appearance, a beautiful smile, innocence in the eyes does makes people beautiful. Other than that, a lovely caring heart with no ego and lots of love for people makes people beautiful.

Do you think science can measure beauty?

Too an extent logically it can, but when it comes down to measuring actual beauty the one that lies within, I really don’t think so. Because it is so diverse and different for everybody that measuring it and bringing it down to some written parameters might not be possible.
