Changing One Habit 📖✨

Daniel used to spend most of his free time on his phone after school. He watched videos, checked messages and played games before starting his homework. The problem was that he often finished his schoolwork very late and felt tired the next morning. A few weeks ago, he decided to change his routine. Now he usually puts his phone in another room while he studies. He prefers doing homework first because he can relax later without worrying about unfinished work. He still uses his phone every day, but he is spending less time on it during the week. Daniel says the new routine is not always easy, but he feels more organized and less stressed.
