Hobbies and pastimes - life skills resource

Have you ever think that having some appropriate hobbies will bring us a lot of beneficial impact? I’m fond of some pastimes which not only help me to entertain myself in my spare time but also teach me invaluable skills. Firstly, reading books grew on me when I find it fundamental for my observing and analytical ability. Whenever I read an engaging book, I pay my attention to it and started to consider thoroughly about what I am reading or what I can refer from those sentences in that book. In my view, reading books in a precise way is an efficient method to improve my reading skills when I do my English assignments. Added to that, taking a slow stroll around the park can also reduce stress and made me feel calm. I feel like my pace of life become slower when I do it. Taking a deep breath, enjoying the little things in my life and that peacefulness helps me a lot to control my emotion, not easily lose my temper and hold back my tears. In conclusion, reading books and taking a slow stroll have made great progress in my life.
