Please look at my family photo.

    Those are my grandparents. These are my parents. My mother is Mona. She likes red. She likes hamburgers for breakfast. And she often plays ping—pong. That is my brother. His name is Jack. He doesn't like red. He just likes yellow. He often has milk and bread for breakfast and then plays soccer. Now this is me. my name is Tony. I like blue very much. My sweaters, my T—shirts, my pants, my shoes are all blue. For my breakfast, I like eggs. I don't like soccer. It's so boring. I just like tennis. It's so fun. This is my family. I love my family.

    Almost all of us have unpleasant habits. We all want to get rid of(摆脱) them, but we don't know proper ways. Here's some advice.

    ●Write down all the reasons why you want to stop some behavior. Look at the reasons very often.

    ●It's clever to do something else when you want to stop your bad habits. If you get angry easily, for example, you can go out for a walk.

    ●Decide what you'll do to reward(奖励) yourself if you really get rid of your bad habits.

    ●If you get too heavy, keep junk food out of your house.

    ●Bad habits develop over years, so you can't get rid of them very soon. So you should be patient.

    ●Don't be afraid to ask others for support. You can talk to your friends, family or other people. When you talk to them, they might be able to provide some advice that you can't get from yourself.

    Remember when you were a little child trying to learn to walk？

    First, you had to learn how to balance (平衡) yourself and stand. You fell down, and then got back up. You laughed sometimes and cried at other times. After much practice, you finally learned how to balance yourself. You got much pleasure from this new feeling of power—you'd stand everywhere you could. It was a happy time—you did it!

    Now the next step—walking. You'd seen others do it. It didn't look that hard—just move your legs while you were standing. Wrong—more difficult than you ever imagined. But after you tried again and again and again, you understood how to walk.

    If people found you walking, they cheered, "Oh, look at what the kid is doing." This encouraged you! But look back on those days when you were the little child—how many times did you try when no one was watching, or when no one was cheering？ You couldn't wait for someone to encourage you to take the next steps. You learned how to encourage yourself.

    So, keep trying and encouraging yourself as you learned to walk if you want to succeed in doing something.
