The Impact of Bad Habits on My Life It is very hard for people to accept their mistakes, but the hardest part is to correct them since no one is perfect and it might take some time as well.

permanently removed from my system is my habit of cramming. Each person has his own set of habits—may it be good or bad. It is a natural manner or steady tendency of how a person behaves. Which is why cramming, being a usual part of my routine, is what I believe makes it quite difficult to get rid of. I am downright ashamed of my being a crammer. I am well aware that this habit of mine inevitably leads to inefficiency, low grades and failure. My chronic habit of cramming is seemingly inescapable.

Portia and the Art of Justice In Shakespeare controversial play, The Merchant of Venice, the character, Antonio calls this world "a stage where every man must play a part". He really cannot imagine that it will be a woman that will play the leading role on his "sad" stage. If not for a woman, Antonio would have found himself as a hunk of flesh in Shylock's trophy room.

has many bad qualities including one of his favorite pastimes getting rip-roaring drunk. A good example of this is one of the many bar scenes when he gets quite drunk and asks the waiter to complement the singer.
