1. Have faith in Yourself
One must have faith in oneself. Faith in oneself helps in increasing one’s
confidence. When a person is confident of himself, he can accomplish
difficult tasks by staying positive in such circumstances. One should do
one’s best in every situation and should avoid blaming others. One should
also avoid comparing oneself with others and make an attempt to better
oneself every day. So, instead of comparing with others, one should
compete with oneself. Self-faith and belief in God can do wonders.
2. The Morning Assembly
The morning assembly in a school should be short. It should start with a
prayer. The prayer should be followed by the news. Apart from the news,
some interesting facts can also be shared in the school assembly. A short
quiz can also be conducted in the assembly. The assembly should end
with the singing of the school song.
