Make these a part of your personality.

PLAY OUTDOOR GAMES
Computer games are good. They sharpen your intellect, but what about the rest of your
body?
You do need some exercise, don't you?
Go cycling, play Ludo, Snake and Ladder, catch, hide n' seek, Etc…… anything that will make
you run.

younger brothers and sisters. You can surely be of some help around the house and try to
wash your own plates after every meal.
7.
FAMILY CHIT-CHAT
A great Chit- Chat with your precious family is possible when you sit and share your
thoughts with your family. Learn to have at least two meals a day with your parents. Your
