Consider the situations for understanding the question only and give your views in general.
Many time we like watching TV serials knowing that we are wasting out time.
We like eating junk food/fast food but it is not good for our health.
Most people like drinking or smoking knowing that it is harmful for both body and brain.
Most of us like Bike Racing but it is dangerous as it can cause accident.
etc...
Why have all 78 viewers of your question over the last 4 months felt guilty about the time they were spending on ResearchGate and turned to their research rather than answering your question? :-)
Even I was wondering about the same one month back and I was also astonished about this. :-)

Researchers seem to understand the relationship between action and effect. :-)
Higher animals have the play-impulse, the drive to match their power against their milieu to the maximum possible. See the classic study Johan Huizinga, Homo Ludens. A Study of the Play Element in Culture. Play is a disinterested effort performed within a prescribed space at a specific time. I live in the country where squirrels, without warning, run into the middle of the street under passing automobiles to test their own speed. Speedbike racing and racecar racing are comparable.
since we have no goal set, no vision to achieve, no friends to help, and no world that is ours.,
We fight with each other for supremacy, we fight with each other to be ahead of others,
We fight with each other for small diferences, In short we live in a hostile world.
How then can we live without harming others and do something useful
Hi Nitish,
Bandura's social learning theory has 3 core concepts. Bandura’s third concept is that learning does Not Necessarily produce a permanent change in behavior. So you can figure out the rest. I give you a link to my thread on keeping healthy, once you have reached 30 years :)

Thanks Miranda,
Nice thread. I will definitely read it completely.

Thanks Nitish. For some of us who were well disciplined since childhood, we learn to avoid the habits that aren't too helpful. Do you know that Chinese parents are such great disciplinarians? And when I grow up, I appreciate all the discipline :))
Dear Miranda,
Almost same case exists in India also.
My family is also a great disciplinarians. In my childhood I don't like some of rules and regulations enforced by them but now I know the importance of those rules.
Regards,
Nitish
