How to Beat a Bully Without Using Your Fists.

Some bullies want to provoke you just to see how you'll react. How then,can you beat a bully without using your fists?

1.TAKE A LIGHTHEARTED APPROACH. If a taunt is simply an attempt at humor, try to laugh it off instead of getting offended. "Sometimes it's just a matter of not taking aggresive statements so seriously, "says a student name Jack. If a bully sees that his words have little effect,he
may stop the harassment.
2. BE MILD. A kind reply is what the bully least expects,and it
can defuse a tense situation.True,keeping coolheaded when under attack takes self-control. But it's always the better course. Mildness is a sign of strenght. The mild person isn't easily thrown off balance, while the bully is often insecure, frustrated, or even desperate.
3.PROTECT YOURSELF. If a situation seems out of control,you may need
to find an escape route.So if violence appears imminent,walk or run
away.If escape is impossible,you may need to ward off violence the best way you can.


The bottom line?
A Bully can't win if you refuse to play his game. So don't get sucked into the flames of his anger. Instead, take control of the situation by employing the above suggestions.
Share with others if you love this.

Students ask, How can i do better at school?

Imagine that you're trapped in a dense,dark jungle.Virtually all

sunlight is blocked by the lush canopy overhead.Surrounded by thick

vegetation,you can barely move.To escape,you must cut your way through

with a machete.

Some would say that the experience of school is similar to the scene

described above.After all,you're trapped all day in the classroom and

hemmed in at night by hours of homework.Is that how you feel?Here are

some tools,you can use to clear a path through the jungle

¤TOOL1:A HEALTHY ATTITUDE TOWARD LEARNING.It's hard to be motivated to

do well in school if you have a negative view of learning.So try to be

positive towards learning

¤TOOL2:A POSITIVE VIEW OF YOUR ABILITIES.School can reveal your hidden

talents.Don't set yourself up for disaster by thinking that you're

simply not capable of improving.When beset with negative thoughts

about your abilities,replace them with positive thoughts.

¤TOOL 3:GOOD STUDY HABITS. There's no shortcut to success at

school.sooner or later,you have to study.Granted,that very word might

have an unpleasant ring to it.However,study is beneficial.In fact,

with a little effort,you may find it enjoyable.

ACTION PLAN

Find a study area: It should be free of distractions.Use a desk if

possible.dont have the TV on.

Set priorities: Since your schooling is important,resolve that you

won't turn on your TV.until your homework is done.
