Do Earth have booster to circle around the Sun?

The Earth orbits the Sun because (1) the force of gravity between the two keeps the Earth in an almost circular orbit, and (2) there is almost nothing (in space) to slow down its speed. The second reason is one of Newton's laws of motion - An object set in motion will continue that motion (inertia) unless acted upon by a force in opposition. The force of gravity from the Sun is at right angles to the orbital motion, so it is not acting against the Earth's motion.

The solar circles the earth because of the fact you are the centre of the completed universe and are not shifting. because of the fact you're on earth, the solar is compelled to circle the earth with the intention to be on the fringe of you, the centre of the universe. after all, once you stand on earth, you're no longer shifting are you?

There is no friction in the vacuum of space, so anything in motion just keeps going and going and going without ever slowing down. It is just coasting. Like a puck on an air hockey table, only with even less friction than that.

No. Gravity of the Sun balances centrifugal acceleration.

The earth simply orbits the sun, one full orbit of the sun every 365 days (one earth year).

Gravity is a theory not a fact. Be openminded. Just because someone says it is doesn't mean it is or that it isnt.

It is because of the gravity of the planet(s) if you lare physics you will know more!
