(C) GIVING RIGHT
DIRECTION TO YOUR DEDICATION.
Dear
students, you know that if we want to reach our destination then we should move
in the right direction too. If we move in the opposite direction we could never
reach our aim. There are many things that influence our mind and attract us. In
these times, drugs are influencing students in a negative manner and taking
them towards a wrong direction. It is a social problem. Misuse of social media
is also having a negative impact.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Drugs
give a momentary pleasure but affects our Lives. The students who enter vicious
circle of drugs, damage their lives and their loved ones too. It is very difficult
to come out of this Verious Circle. We should channelize our energy towards
sports. Sports give us health, which is the real wealth. If one is fit
physically only then he or she can enjoy life physical fitness make us look
good, feel good and we are resistant to diseases
·
We
should be aware of our destination, like when we start from our home to school we
know we have to reach school but if we have to
visit our friend or some new place, then what happens? Write about it.

·
In the same way fix a high goal and start
moving towards it firmly.
