第二篇:英語口語演講稿 節(jié)日
Hello, everyone!My name is Tofu.Today, I ’m going to talk about how one can develop a good habit.Everybody here knows that it’s so important for us to form a good habit.Because since we are born, we have been being told over and over again that we are supposed to develop good habits, which are good for all our life.But the fact is that we always find that it’s so difficult for us to develop a good habit.So, what should we do? Don’t worry!I will give you some suggestions immediately.First, you can make a contract with yourself.For example, if you want to develop a habit of going exercise everyday, then ,you have to write down that if you success, you can award yourself a travel to your favorite place or else;but if you fail, you must punish yourself that you can’t eat your favorite food for a month or even longer.Do follow my idea, you will have both the pressure and motive power to form a good habit.Second, you can ask someone who likes exercise to be your partner.It can be your good friends, your roommates or even your teacher.Then, if one day you have the will to give up, your partner will push you to continue.With a partner, you can encourage each other, supervise each
other and you are supposed to success easier.Third, you have to stick to it.Always remember that willpower is the most important element for individual success.As the saying goes: work with perseverance, can be used in the stone.So, never give up, just do it!
