Small Habits, Big Leaders by Soha Saleem-3B

Do you know that every child can be a leader? Yes — even you! Being a leader doesn’t mean being the boss. It means making good choices, helping others, and becoming the best version of yourself.

Here are the 7 effective habits that can make you a true leader:

⭐ Habit 1: Be Proactive – I Am in Charge of Me!

This habit teaches us to take responsibility.
It means thinking before acting, speaking kindly, and choosing the right thing — even when no one is watching.

⭐ Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind – Have a Goal

Leaders always know where they are going.
Set small goals like, “I will finish my homework on time” or “I will read for 20 minutes today.”
Goals give you direction!

⭐ Habit 3: Put First Things First – Work Before Play

This habit is all about prioritizing.
Finish homework, clean your room, and prepare your school bag before you play.
When you complete important tasks first, fun feels even better!

⭐ Habit 4: Think Win-Win – Everyone Can Win

Good leaders try to make sure everyone is happy, not just themselves.
Share, take turns, and look for solutions that help you and others.

⭐ Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood – Listen First!

Great leaders are great listeners.
Before speaking, try to understand how others feel.
Listening shows respect and helps you communicate better.

⭐ Habit 6: Synergize – Together Is Better!

Teamwork makes everything easier!
When you work with friends or classmates, you combine ideas and make something even more amazing.

⭐ Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw – Take Care of Yourself

A leader stays healthy and happy.
Eat well, sleep well, play, read, and relax.
Taking care of your mind and body helps you stay strong and confident.

Remember- Leadership Starts with YOU!

You don’t need a badge or a title to be a leader.
You just need good habits, a kind heart, and a positive attitude.
Start practicing these habits today — and watch the leader in you shine!
