There are two types of people: people, who drink occasionally and not much and people, who are binge drinkers. To drink a little wine is not bad for health, but if a person cant cut down on drinking alcohol and does it regularly, it can lead to an addiction. These people are deeply involved in the situation and cant quit drinking. It becomes not only a bad habit, but it is already an illness, that mandatory should be treated. I suppose, that everybody should be very careful with alcohol, because regularity causes an addiction. Resist the temptation of booze and stay healthy, physically and mental!

So... learning english is still my new year's resolution and I haven't quit it yet since the last year.
When I firts started this resolution one year ago I didn't know one word in english and now I'm able to watch these videos without the subtitles most of the times.
Besides that, everybody must know any time is a good time for starting doing good things for you and leaving back the bad stuff, You don't need to wait 'till the next new year comes.

I quitted alcohol at many years ago then got into healthier habits like going to bed earlier, going to gym and so on, I advise everyone to give it a go.
