There is no doubt that sometimes it has become very difficult to encourage someone to do something that he or she not want to do. In this topic I would like to talk about time when I encouraged one of my friends to do an adventurous activity which he did not want to do. Actually my friend is Raman and we know each other since my childhood. last year we went to Manali to try some local dishes and exploring the city. Actually my friend is a travel freak but he is very skilled of trying extreme sports. But when we went to the Manali we were in the lakeside, riverside area I told my friend that I would like to try Scuba diving but he tried to ignore my idea but I never gave up at that time. I told him that everything would go fine because the experience the divers over there they would tell us all the safety guidelines and procedures that was essential to do the Scuba diving At the end he was able to do this activity with me and we enjoyed this cobertiving a lot and at the end he thanked me a lot that I was able to overcome his fear by doing this Now, whenever he meets me, we always tell him about the activity that we did. And he told me that we can now do extreme sports without any fears.

There is no doubt that sometimes it becomes very difficult to encourage someone to do something that he or she does not want to do. In this topic, I would like to talk about a time when I encouraged one of my friends to do an adventurous activity that he did not want to do. My friend is Raman, and we have known each other since childhood. Last year, we went to Manali to try some local dishes and explore the city. My friend is a travel enthusiast, but he is not very skilled at trying extreme sports. When we were in the lakeside, riverside area of Manali, I told my friend that I would like to try scuba diving, but he tried to ignore my idea. However, I never gave up at that time. I told him that everything would be fine because the divers there would explain all the safety guidelines and procedures that were essential for scuba diving. In the end, he was able to do this activity with me, and we enjoyed scuba diving a lot. At the end, he thanked me for helping him overcome his fear. Now, whenever he meets me, we always talk about the activity we did, and he tells me that he can now do extreme sports without any fears.
