Do you sometimes wonder if life will always be the same? Perhaps nothing ever (seem) to change? You wake up in the morning, get ready for school and then somehow, by the time your head hits the pillow at night, it's as if you've just lived a repetition of the day before. It might not seem like it, but whether you are sure it or not, you do move forward every single day. Here's a fun way to see all progress you are making.
Keep a record!
Before you go to bed tonight, take out a fresh notebook (a larger size will work better for this) . Write down the date at the top of the (one) page, then go over the day in your mind. Think of all the things you did, saw, (hear) tasted, smelled, or touched. Maybe you learned a new concept in Maths, a handy skill in the kitchen, an easier way to draw faces, and an awesome skateboard trick. While (exercise) , did you lift heavier weights, run longer, walk (far) or stretch better? Everything counts, even if a tiny step.
Next, describe what happened during the day and what you learned. It could be just a few words or several paragraphs. Add whatever mattered most to you—it might be a (teacher) praise or a good grade, and it could also be (congratulate) from a friend. Perhaps you finally found the courage to act on something troubled you, or decided to take part in an activity for the first time.
