How you use "in"and "on"depends on what you want to say and what other words you use with them.

As for your examples, try:

He put a lot of effort into it.

He set an example for teaching the next generation.

Thanks you ..

I don't have habit on/in/for sleeping early.
In this situation, which one can I use and why?

Why we always say "Diploma in Business Management" Why we won't use "Diploma on/for"?

 

[Matthew Wai]

I don't have the habit of sleeping early.

 

[GoesStation]

Ask "Why do we always say..." and "Why don't we use...."

 

[Matthew Wai]

Why we always say "Diploma in Business Management" Why we won't use "Diploma on/for"?

Because 'in' is 'used to say what specific thing your statement is related to.'── quoted from www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/in_1

 

[Tarheel]

Two things.

Say "Thank you" or "Thanks" but please don't say "Thanks you" again.

Do you know how to use the "Thank" and "Like" buttons?

 

[Tarheel]

Thanks you ..

I don't have habit on/in/for sleeping early.

You can't use any of them. Instead say:

I'm not in the habit of getting up early.

 

[Matthew Wai]

How about 'I'm not in the habit of going to bed early'?

 

[Tarheel]

Do we ask why is it that rain falls from the sky?
Do we say why oh why oh why do birds fly?
Do we see a dog bark and ask why?

Sometimes there is an an answer to the question "Why?" but often there is not.

 

[Tarheel]

How about 'I'm not in the habit of going to bed early'?

Yes! In fact a person will say he's going to bed early because he's not used to going bed at that time.

(In English we say a person slept late, but we never say a person slept early. I think I have an answer for that one, but it will have to wait because it's time for my morning coffee.)

 

[Matthew Wai]

we never say a person slept early.

I think 'went to sleep early' is okay.

 

[Tarheel]

A person might have to get up by a certain time, but nobody ever has to sleep until a certain time. Thus we have words like "overslept" and phrases like "slept late" but nothing similar for the opposite thing.

 

[Tarheel]

It's a stage kids go through. They learn the word "why" and then they want to use it. Every time Mom or Dad says something they say "Why?" Even the most patient parents get tired of hearing that sooner or later. That's what leads to statements such as "Because I said so!"
