A personal habit that helps define me as an individual is that I need to roam around and study. In other words, I cannot sit at one place and study. This trait helps to define me a lot. The constant moving around hows that I am restless and don't like to sit idle. I always want to keep doing something that will keep me occupied. I don't like being lazy and always want to channel my excess energy into something constructive. The constant roaming around also shows that I do not like to be confined into one place. I like to roam around and be free. I do not like to be forced to do something. It also shows that I like to study a lot. I like reading books and thus most of the time when I read a chapter, I read it as a story. This not only helps to simplify the chapter but also makes me ask questions to myself. In this way I am able to understand any new topic quickly. The constant roaming around also helps my brain to work faster. If I sit at one place and try to study I feel lazy and thus eventually fall asleep. But when I roam around my mind keeps me alert and thus I do not fall asleep. It also shows my negative characters. I am restless and generally cannot sit in one place for too long. One of my teachers even called me a boy with roller skates on his legs. This restlessness has always been my drawback but I have improved it a lot. From meditation to taking long exams. All these have helped me get my restlessness under control. Now teachers no longer feel I am restless. However I still cannot sit and one place and study. I guess thats how I am. But I look at it in a positive way. Maybe it represents my zeal to pursue higher education and travel all over the world with the help of that education.
My sister has the same habit. She cannot sit in one place and study she has to move around. I use to get really irritated and yell at her, but soon I realized she isn't going to change. I like how you say both the positive and the negative things about this habit. You also use the negatives to see the positive, and you realize that this habit is who you are.
