Title	How to be a Good Son/Daughter
Introduction	Are you a good son or daughter? Some kids aren’t sure. In order to be a good son or daughter you need to be sure to listen, help out and be thankful.
Information 1st idea	Listen.  One thing parents hate is when their kid doesn’t listen to them, and that doesn’t just mean hearing. Listening is when you look at your parents when they talk and actually process what they’re saying. Then once you’ve processed what they’ve said, actually go and do it.
Information 2nd idea	Help Out  Parents love it when they’re kids are helpful around the house. Especially when you do it without being asked. Try little things, like washing the dishes or even just bringing in the groceries and it’ll make things a lot easier for your parents. Helping around truly has its advantages.
Information 3rd idea	Be Thankful  Your parents do a lot for you. They feed you, clothe you, put a roof over your heads. That’s just a tiny portion of how much love your parents put into you. So say thank you and show it through your actions. Maybe even give your parents a massage when they come home from work, or give them breakfast in bed in the morning. Your parents want to feel loved and appreciated too.
Conclusion	So now that you’ve read my story about “Role Models” are you strong, powerful and motivational enough to be a good role model? Everyone has the strength to be a role model. So use your strength and become a better role model then you already are!

Being a good UFC fighter

Being a good ufc fighter means you have to train and tend to try to diet down within about 10% of their weight class.I am going to tell more information about how to be a good Ufc fighter.

Being a good UFC fighter takes a long time because you have to train each day without stopping.If the President of UFC Dana White recognizes you and comes to watch a couple of your fights and is proud, of the way you handle your opponents and the way you move around.He could ask if you want a contract to sign for UFC.

If you want to earn a Title shot which is having a go at being a UFC Champ is by Showing them you want this fight and that you can beat your opponents.Being a UFC champion is lots of pressure because it would be the first time being a world champion.Having to much pressure on yourself means you could lose your belt,but if you take your time and have faith in yourself and won't have to much pressure.

There you have it how to be a good UFC fighter.

Making sure you are going to every training and eating healthy food not food with lots of calories.
