Changes.

A change is to make or become different. Changes happen all the time, even within us. There are different things changing around us. Be it by nature or by us, mankind. They can be either positive or negative. Some positive changes are widening the circle of friends you have or maybe even being more optimistic towards things in life. While deforesting or the addition to smoking are some examples of the negative ones.

Personally, I feel that positive internal changes are vital for a person to be disciplined and to lead a happy & enjoyable life. One of the many examples of positive internal changes is having a good attitude. The attitude that one has, reflects a lot on one's character. A person who has a good attitude would be well respected by the people around him or her. If one have a good attitude, one will be able to accomplish all tasks given on time. In this case, people will like this person and treat him or her better. But if one has a bad attitude towards things, people will turn away and not look up to him or her.

Having a good attitude has changed me into a different person in a positive way. I will try to behave when it is time to be serious and not play a fool. When it is time for fun, I will make myself enjoy very much. I used to be quite lazy to do my homework from school and sometimes get punished in the past. But I realized that it is the wrong behaviour one should have. Thus, I changed myself and pass up my assignments on time. In this matter, the teacher will not be angry and look up to you.

I feel that a good attitude must start from oneself. When one go out to work in the outside world, he or she will not face so many problems when working with one's colleagues. The boss will see one as a person with a good character.

To me, a person should have the correct attitude towards things in life and be optimistic for everything in life to be fine. As the saying goes, for things to change, first, I must change.
