When talking about things you usually do, such as habits, you can say that you "have the habit of" doing that task. For example:
- I have the habit of using the dictionary to look up words that I don't know.
- I have the habit of brushing my teeth every day after lunch.
- I have the habit of making my bed before I leave for work in the morning.
Then again, you could always leave out the word "habit" and say:
- I usually use the dictionary to look up words I don't know.
- I usually brush my teeth every day after lunch.
If it is something that you are currently training yourself to do as a habit, you can say:
- I make it a habit to use the dictionary to look up words I don't know.
- I make it a habit to make my bed before I leave for work in the morning.
I hope this helps! ^^

I feel compelled to look up any English words I haven't been exposed to yet.
"Feeling compelled" means that you have an almost uncontrollable desire to do something. It would be, in my opinion, a more natural phrasing as opposed to saying you have a habit of looking up words.
"Feeling compelled" （強く感じる）とは、ほとんどコントロールできない何かをしたいという欲求があることを意味します。これはyou have a habit of looking up words（言葉を探す習慣がある）よりも自然な表現だと私は思います。
