If you want the boy to like you, then it's not all about making him think that you're a fascinating, awesome person. You have to show that you're interested in him, too. To do this, you have to ask him a few questions about his life to keep him interested and to show that you're more than just a pretty face. Make sure there's a balance in the conversation between talking about yourself and asking him questions, and he'll see that he likes talking to you a lot. Here are some questions you can ask him about:  What he did over the weekend His plans for the summer or upcoming holidays His pets His favorite bands, TV shows, movies, or books His hobbies and interests Another way to keep the boy interested is to not overwhelm him by coming on too strong. You can compliment him and make it pretty clear that you like him if he shares your interests, but you shouldn't glue yourself to him or constantly spend time with him. Give him time to miss you, to wonder what you're doing, and to appreciate that you have your own life. If you make your life all about him, then he'll lose interest pretty soon. You don't want him to think that you're too intense. Even if you really, really like him, you should wait for the relationship to deepen before you share your true feelings. One way to avoid coming on too strong is to avoid texting him or checking in on him all the time. You can check in with him to say hi, but don't make it seem like all you do is think about him when you're not together. If you want to hold a guy's interest, then you have to make him feel like he's special to you – without coming on too strong, of course. If he starts treating you like you're special to him, then you should do the same, by paying a bit more attention to him in groups, asking him how he's doing, or even giving him a subtle complement about his clothes or something that isn't overly personal. If you want to keep the boy around, then he has to know that you care for him. You don't have to come right out and say it, but you can let your actions...

If you’re talking to a girl that you’ve never met before, you’ll want to learn more about her. Ask open-ended questions that don’t require a “yes” or “no” answer to give her a chance to show more of her interests and personality.  For a girl you just met, you can ask, “Have you had any good adventures lately?” or, “What’s something that you find really interesting?” If you know her, ask her about things that you might have in common, like, "What did you do this weekend?" or, "How did you do on that history project?" That will give her a chance to talk and give you an opportunity to respond. Paying attention when a girl talks is a great way to show her that you’re interested and nice. Eye contact is the best way to communicate that you’re engaged in the conversation, and be sure to throw in affirming comments at the appropriate times. If you have something to add to the conversation, make sure you wait until there’s a pause to jump in with your comment. No one likes to be interrupted while they talk! Girls love a guy who has a sense of humor and can make them laugh. Think about something funny that happened to you recently and bring it up in conversation if it goes with the topic that you’re talking about.  For example, if you’re talking about school being tough, you might say something like, “Yesterday, I got my Spanish test back and saw that my teacher circled my name at the top of the test. I was so confused for a second, but then I realized I spelled my own name wrong!” Try to avoid randomly bringing up a funny story, because that can make it seem like you’re trying too hard. Keep the story short to avoid boring the girl, and keep an eye out to make sure she isn’t bored. If you notice her staring off, wrap up your story and change the subject to something else. Many girls respond positively to small gestures like a touch on the arm, sitting close, or brushing her hair behind her ear. Make excuses to have physical contact with her, which will make her feel more comfortable and at ease around you.  A great...

What is this group interested in? What do they like? Are are they like? If this group could be a kind of dessert, what would she be? Just find fun and light things to chat about to see what she, and the rest of the group, are interested in. Here are some good group questions, if you're not familiar with the group:  How do you all know each other? How often do you all hang out? What are you all drinking? Who has the best one? Conversation is about finding doors and opening them. Listen to what they're talking about and respond to the subject positively and kindly with something of your own. If the group is taking about a movie, ask what everyone thought. If someone says, "Boring," say, "Oh really? What movies do you like?" Keep the conversation flowing and positive, to show that you're an interesting person that this girl should want to talk to. The follow up is the most important part of a conversation. Nobody knows how to talk to a stranger without listening to what they say and responding. If one member of the group is giving her opinion about a particular topic, turn to the girl you want to talk to and say, "What do you think?" This is an excellent way of contributing to the break in the conversation and including her in it as well. It also signals to everyone that you're interested in talking to her specifically. If you know she's in a particular club, likes a certain band, or is particularity interested in something, focus your conversation by asking her about it. Ask how long she's been interested in that hobby, why she likes it, and let it lead to finding out more about her and seeing what you guys have in common. Conversation is give and take. If you only talk about her, she might feel like you're prying. So, after asking her about herself, think about something that has to do with what she says, and then respond. At the same time, don't only talk about yourself. Self-absorbmant is a pretty big turn-off. While you're talking to a group, try to keep things light and positive. Encourage others in their...

It's normal to be confused about why, where, and how you're moving. Talking to your parents about the move keeps you informed and can make you understand why you're moving more.   Your parents should be able to tell you the primary reasons why you're moving. It may be because of a new job, changing financial circumstances, or maybe divorce or separation. When you talk to your parents about moving, try not to be accusatory. Instead, understand the move from their perspective and why they think it's necessary. Sometimes, it helps to see your new home before moving to it. Then, you can realize that there will be plenty to do and see in your new hometown.  A pre-move visit is a good idea both for parents and children. It can be fun to look at the local schools, shops, and different attractions in your new home. If possible, go to your actual new home. Walking around in the place before everything is moved in can be a good way to imagine your new life there. Moving can be a lot of work, but it can be good for kids to help out. Helping out doesn't have to be a major task, but can just be something to stay involved in the process.   If you're an older teen, you can be the one to pack up your room. It's important to get rid of anything non-essential first, but packing up your room and setting it up at your new home can be a good activity to do to stay busy during your move. Even if you can't pack up your entire room, your parents will likely have some tasks for you to do. Anything you can do to help will be useful to them and likely make you feel better and more involved in moving. When you move, you'll likely leave behind some good friends that you've made. Even if you'll no longer see them everyday, there are still plenty of ways to stay in touch with old friends.  You can have your parents buy you an address book so you can stay in touch with your friends. If you have their address, e-mail, and phone number, it should be easy to find ways to talk to your friends often. Staying in touch with friends is easier now...

This is the most important part of keeping a conversation going with anyone, from your girlfriend, to you grandfather, to the kid next door. People like to talk about themselves as a general rule, and if you open that conversational door, most will walk through it. Try to ask more open-ended questions, and avoid ones with yes or no answer. The idea is to ask things that will lead naturally into conversation, not to pepper her with interview questions.  Ask about her day. This is an obvious place to start. When asked simply, “How was your day?” many of us automatically respond, “Fine thanks,” without even thinking about it. This probably won’t lead anywhere. Instead, try something a little more pointed, like, “Did you do anything interesting today?” or “Did you make it to work before that storm started this morning?” It may not lead to anything particularly fascinating, but it will ease you both into the conversation. Ask about mutual interests and acquaintances. More than likely, you and your girlfriend share various interests. This is a great way to introduce a subject you can both talk about, while still framing it as a question. Try asking what she thought of latest episode of a TV show you both like, or if she read a recent interview with a mutual favorite author, or if she’s seen so-and-so lately. Ask for support or advice. It is important to offer your girlfriend a sympathetic ear and a shoulder to cry on when she needs it, but if she feels like you never need support from her in return, she may begin to feel like a burden. No one wants to date an emotionless robot who never needs help. Don’t invent problems if none exist, but if you are struggling with something, don’t be afraid to get vulnerable and turn to her for advice or validation. Ask what she wanted to be when she grew up when she was 7. This is a bit of an unusual question. It will show her that you are interested in learning more about her, and give you some new perspective. If something particularly funny or interesting happened to you...

Being able to keep the conversation going is important when you're flirting. And people love to talk about themselves. Let your crush do most of the talking by asking questions about what they did last weekend, who their favorite band is, or how they like to spend their free time. Focus on questions that require more than a “yes” or “no” so the conversation continues flowing.  Ask a question like, "If you could be an animal, what would you be?" instead of "Would you want to be a cat?" Or ask, "What do you think about the book we're reading in English?" instead of "Do you like the book?" Don't force questions into the conversation. Too many questions will feel more like an interview than flirting. Ask them whenever it feels natural and choose questions that follow the topic of conversation. If they say they love pizza, for example, ask something related like, "What are your favorite toppings?" instead of jumping to a random question like "What's your favorite song?" You're definitely not the one who's going to make the first move, and that's okay. Get them to do the asking by strategically including signs in your next conversation. If the two of you are talking about favorite movies and they mention one they're looking forward to seeing in theaters, say, “I can't wait to see that one, either!” or even, “I really want to see that but none of my friends will go with me.” That leaves the perfect opening for them to ask if you want to go with them.  Don't be discouraged if they don't pick up on your hints. That's the thing about being subtle: It doesn't always work. It works both ways, too. If you notice that they're dropping hints about hanging out, realize it might be a sign they want you to ask them out. Don't say, “We should hang out sometime.” It's vague and likely means it will never happen. Know exactly what you want to do and when so they can either say yes or no. For example, say, “Do you want to go to midnight bowling with me on Saturday night?” instead of “Maybe we can go bowling soon.” If they aren't...

Asking open-ended questions will open the other person up and help you understand their point of view. Acknowledge their feelings and listen to what they have to say, then respond by asking them questions about that require more than a one-word answer. Focus your questions on how they feel and what you can do to prevent arguments in the future.  You can say something like, "So how did the experience make you feel?" You can say something like, “I get why you would be angry. What would you prefer me to do in the future?” Practice active listening and avoid interrupting the other person. Concentrate on what they are saying rather than thinking about how you're going to respond. The more that you listen to them, the more that you'll understand their point of view.  Understanding the other person's point of view may help you realize that your anger was misplaced and that they really meant no offense. Active listening takes practice. Don't beat yourself up if you struggle with it at first. Just try your best to listen to what the other person is saying and take mental notes. High emotions can make people irrational. After you listen to the person, try to take a step back from your emotions and look at the argument from a third person's perspective. This may help you see their point of view and may assist you in understanding why they may be angry. Don't look at the argument from your perspective or their perspective. Rather, pretend that you just walked in on the argument as a stranger. What does it look like to you? Many times arguments arise out of miscommunication. Taking someone’s argument and saying it back to them will let the person know that you’re actively listening to them and care about how they feel. It will also allow them the opportunity to explain their side of things and can prevent miscommunication.  You can say something like, "So what you're saying is that you don't like the way my friends talk to you. Is that right?" If you rephrase their side of the argument incorrectly, that's okay! Give them...

This technique is essential regardless of who you're talking to and what your end purpose is. An open-ended question will demand a more elaborate answer, while a yes or no question can be answered with a single word. If you want to keep a conversation going, open ended questions are more effective than questions that can be answered using one word.  Find ways to rephrase yes/no questions into open-ended questions. For example, instead of asking the guy if he enjoyed the movie you watched together, ask him what he thought of the cinematography or the story. You can coax his answer out by mentioning your own thoughts on the topic, but make sure you're leaving room for him to talk. In other words, use the information he provides to extend the conversation. If you're attentive, you can usually find something that he may elaborate on in greater detail. You can either use this method to extend the conversation in the same direction, or to change the subject to a new, related direction.  If you can't think of more specific questions, you can say, “That sounds interesting. Tell me more.” Don't interrupt him while he's talking. Wait until he finishes a thought, then ask additional questions. A guy might stop talking about a topic if he thinks it would bore you. The beauty of asking him to elaborate on what he brings up is that it keeps the conversation going while boosting his confidence about his ability to keep you interested. Most people appreciate a compliment when it seems genuine, and if the guy in front of you looks like he might be tongue-tied in front of you, he could probably benefit from the boost in confidence a bit of truthful flattery can provide.  Avoid overly seductive or suggestive compliments. For instance, telling a guy “You have great eyes” is preferred over telling him “You have bedroom eyes.” The best compliments will make him feel better about the circumstances as a whole. For example, try something like, “I'm really glad you've been keeping me company here. I think I would be bored out of my...

Ask your date questions without “yes” or “no” answers so that they don’t feel like they’re being interrogated. Get to know your date’s personality and lifestyle. Does this person seem like someone who shares your goals and complements your personality? See if your date likes the same things that you do, or if your date could introduce you to something you’ve always wanted to try. Here’s a list of questions to get you started:  What do you like to do on weekends? What is one thing on your bucket list? What’s the best book you’ve read in the past six months? What in your life are you proud of?  “What do you do? Do you enjoy your job?” “What is your best friend like?” “Do you want to try some of my food?” “Are you a morning person?” “Do you have roommates? Who are they?” Give your date realistic information about yourself, your life, your interests, and your thoughts. Your date is here to get to know you. Don’t dominate the conversation, but do express yourself as you would in typical conversations with friends or potential partners. Find connections between your date and yourself. Make eye contact with your date. Smile. Practice good posture. Nod at what the other person is saying. Occasionally, summarize what the other person says and show an interest in the other person’s interests.  For example, you could say, “It sounds like you have a great relationship with your mother! When was the last time you saw her?” Or, “You seem like you really love your job. How did you get interested in public service?” Tell your date if you want to see them again. Get their number and call them within a couple of days. If you don’t want to see your date again, tell them that you had a nice time and that you hope they have a good rest of their evening. Don’t be overtly cruel about rejecting someone, but don’t feel as though you have to give them false hope by saying you want to see them again when you don’t.

Just like any other type of conversation, the best way to ensure that the conversation continues to flow is to ask open-ended questions.  This means asking questions that cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no” so that your partner is encouraged to elaborate.  This will help keep the conversation going. There are even certain questions you can ask that may help to bring you and your partner closer together.  Some good questions to ask include:  “What would your perfect day be like?” “What are three things that you think we have in common?” “Do you have a dream that you have not yet had a chance to do anything about? If so, what is it?" Once you have initiated the conversation with some romantic questions, another way to encourage a romantic conversation is to increase the intimacy between the two of you.  A great way to do this is to cutely confess something to your partner that really elaborates on your feelings for them.  This is a subtle way to say something romantic without being overwhelming.  Just be sure the thing you “confess” is light and romantic in nature.  For example:  “I have to admit something.  I've wanted to hold your hand like this since the moment we met.” “I have always wanted to know where you got that scar on your knee from.” “I really want to tell you that I love the perfume you are wearing.” As you carry on the conversation, be sure to keep the conversation topics light and positive.  Talking about things like money, work, or any problems in your relationship will ruin the romantic mood. Instead, stick to positive subjects like your future, what you love about your partner, and intimate aspects of your relationship.   Tell your partner about your goals and dreams and ask him or her to share these as well. Focus on showing your positive personality traits in the conversation as well. Are you outgoing? Accepting? Honest? Hard working? Whatever your positive personality traits are, try to find a few opportunities to showcase them. Using “I" statements has been shown to help keep a...

The more questions you ask them, especially questions requiring depth and detail, the more uncomfortable they will become because they will have to make up more and more. They may contradict themselves or lead themselves into a trap.  It is very hard to completely fabricate a detailed story on the spot so look for chinks in their armor. If you really give them the third degree they might even eventually crumble and admit they are lying (though don't rely too heavily on this happening). Ask them several times to explain the sequence of events. This is very hard to keep straight for someone who is lying and it is likely they will make a mistake. Ask them small details about the thing they’re lying about – like what color their shirt was or how they felt when they saw someone. If the person you suspect of lying has lied before, they are more likely to be lying now. Think about how the person would normally act in this situation and compare it to their suspected lie. Try reflecting on the kind of excuses they have come up with for specific situations in the past. For example, if you are a teacher and you think your student is lying about why they haven't done their homework again, compare their excuse to previous excuses to see if they always tend to be elaborate, far-fetched, or related to a particular reason. If you’re having trouble figuring something out, an honest person will help you brainstorm to come up with an answer. A liar will not want to give you any more details or information than they are required to. Try asking questions like, “Can you think of anyone else who might have had access to this computer?” If the person tries to help you figure out another possibility, they are probably telling the truth. But if they say they have no idea or react negatively/aggressively, they are likely telling a lie.

It takes at least two people to have a great conversation. Make sure to do your part and actively participate in the discussion. One of the best ways to do this is to ask questions that will allow the discussion to develop naturally.  Ask open-ended questions. Instead of saying, "It's a nice day, isn't it?" Say, "How are you planning to enjoy this beautiful weather?" The first example only requires a yes or no answer, which could be a dead end for the conversation. Ask questions that require more than 1 word. Ask questions that clarify what the other person is saying. If you are having a talk about rules with your teenager, try saying, "I hear you saying that you're frustrated because you feel like you don't have enough freedom. What can we do to find a solution that works for both of us?" . Being an active listener means that you are responding to your conversation partner and demonstrating that you are engaged in the discussion. You can indicate that you are actively listening through both physical and verbal cues. Active listening makes the other person feel valued and respected, which is very important when trying to develop effective conversations.  You can let someone know that you are listening by using positive body language. Make sure to make eye contact throughout the conversation. Also, try nodding or shaking your head at appropriate times. You can provide verbal cues to let someone know that you are engaged in the conversation. They can be as simple as "That's interesting!" or more substantial, such as "I didn't know that. Can you tell me more about what it physically feels like when you're running a marathon?" Another way to indicate that you are actively listening is to restate some of the conversation. Try paraphrasing. For example, you can say, "How interesting that you are exploring some new volunteer opportunities. It sounds like you are really excited about trying something new." Remember that active listening is about retaining and thinking about what the other person is saying. Instead of...

What is it that you are doing with your apologies? Trying to minimize yourself or come off differently? Maybe you are trying to avoid conflict or seek approval. Explore these questions thoroughly. Try free-writing your answers to see your knee jerk opinions about the issue. Also consider who you apologize to most often. Your significant other? Your boss? Examine these relationships and what your apologies are accomplishing with those specific people. When you apologize too often, you may end up with a stifled internal sense of your feelings. The apology may become about the end result of being seen differently by someone else and less about your your own feelings of the situation. Dig into your feelings when you are tempted to apologize and notice what you find.  Oftentimes apologies correspond to feelings of inadequacy which can be resolved through acceptance of oneself and a renewed look at your power and worth.  When working on adjusting longstanding habits tied to self-esteem, the assistance of a therapist or other mental health professional can be useful. As we know, everyone makes mistakes. This means you don't need to apologize for having a stain on your shirt or needing three tries to get your parallel parking just right. These mistakes may be silly or embarrassing, but knowing that everyone is fallible will help you realize that making mistakes is not a big deal, and we don't need to be hyper-focused on our errors. This focus holds us back from growth and change. Recognize that your mistakes are what help you grow. If a mistake causes you inconvenience or even pain, there is always the opportunity to learn from the experience and grow from it. . Endless apologies and self-recrimination are an indication that you have become a guilty person rather than just feeling guilty for wrongdoings. Start working through your guilt by making efforts to be more compassionate toward yourself, adjusting unrealistic standards, and recognizing that which you cannot control.  For example, you may believe that you...

When you are engaged in a conversation, ask questions that require an expanded response, instead of a one-word response. Make the question applicable to the ongoing conversation. For example, ask someone about a movie, when she found time to travel or what did actually happen in the situation.  Open ended questions force people to extensively speak, which carries the conversation further. Ask questions about the person you are talking to. Everyone likes to talk about themselves, and the easiest way to become charismatic, is to be the person to which others can boast about themselves with. If you are meeting someone for the first time, ask them about their goals, their journey to their career choice or their significant other. If you know a person well enough to avoid those “ice-breaker” questions, ask about the trip they recently took or how their significant other is feeling. Others might wish to congratulate you on a recent achievement. Accept their praises modestly by thanking them but also by giving credit to others. For example, you could thank someone for noticing your hard work and add that this work project couldn't have been done without the help of your colleagues. This kind of response shows that you are proud of your work, but not boastful.  You should find the line between too much humility and too little. If you are too humble with statements which undermine yourself, one may think that you didn't do anything at all. But, if you are overly confidence, people may perceive you as conceited or arrogant, such as if you respond by saying that you worked on this project day and night and that it turned out awesome.   By having appropriately humble responses and giving credit where credit is due, you begin to show and your character as a gracious and appreciate person. People like to know they are being listened to. During your conversation, restate in your own words, what you have been talking about. For example, after someone told you about their family troubles, answer by admitting that this person...

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Employers are most interested in candidates which ask questions during an interview. There are very good questions to follow up a question about your personality, work ethic, or ability to work with others such as:  "What skills and experiences would make an ideal candidate for your company?" This is a good chance for your potential employer to lay all cards on the table and describe exactly what they are looking for. It can be a good way for you to follow up with more answers about yourself and your work ethic that you haven't covered yet. "Do you offer professional training or continuing education?" This is a good way to show that you are interested in continuing to learn new ways of doing your job and that you are willing to grow with the company. This shows you are interested in being part of a successful team and thinking of ways how your skills might contribute.  "Can you tell me about the team I'll be working with?" This question shows that you know you'll be working in a team environment and might lead to ways in which you can describe how well you have worked with others in the past. " Describe how your attitude and approach to work fits in with the company or team philosophy. You might say "I'm an effective team player. I first evaluate where in a team project my skills would be most effective and offer strategies in that area. I offer support and positive feedback to my coworkers." It is not a good idea to ask questions about benefits, time off, changing your work schedule, gossip you might have heard, or too many personal questions about your interviewer.  Stick to specific questions about your potential jobs, the company in general, and the team you'll be working with. Questions about benefits and salary can be addressed later in the hiring process rather than in an initial interview.

You don't want to go too deep too quickly, but you do want to open up a dialogue. Try some interesting questions. As an example, you could ask "What's your favorite book of all time? Why do you like it?" or "Where did you grow up? What was it like?" That is, don't hide truths about yourself if he or she asks. Everyone tells little white lies, but if you say you're a doctor when you're really only a nursing assistant, that will come back to bite you later. " Becoming too intimate too quickly can scare people off. Keep it cool and casual for the first date. You wouldn't talk about every mistake you've made on the job in the past on a job interview. The same holds true for a first date. You don't have to lay out all your personal flaws and mistakes on the first date. In fact, it's a good idea not to. You just want to make a connection with the other person, and saying too much too soon can push her or him away. That is, your date does want to hear about you. Don't always deflect the question back to your date. Tell him or her about who you are. As an example, if your date asks, "What's your favorite type of movie?," don't just say, "Oh, you know, I like most movies." Instead, you could say, "I really enjoy a wide spectrum, everything from goofy musicals to horror flicks. In fact, last night I watched Hairspray and Woman in Black. What do you like?" Saying goodbye is the last impression you leave your date with. Don't just say a quick goodbye. Take a minute to give your date a hug, kiss, or handshake, and talk about plans for getting in touch in the future. As an example, you could say, "I really enjoyed our date. I loved talking about baseball with you. When can I get in touch with you again?"


Задавайте человеку вопросы о нем. Не осуждайте. Не бойтесь быть собой. Плывите по течению. Не заваливайте человека сообщениями, если он не отвечает.

If you're unsure of what to talk about, you can ask them about themselves. Read what they have to say and ask them questions that relate to what they are texting you. The more that they open up and text you about their lives, the more often they will want to text. Once a level of trust has been built, they will likely open up to you and talk about more serious things. The worst thing that you can do is to be judgemental about the things they are sharing with you. Try to be understanding instead of judging them. If you're judgemental, they may be afraid to open up to you in the future and may not want to text you anymore. Don't second guess every text you want to send. If you find yourself typing out long texts and deleting them, stop and try to relax. The more that you act like yourself in the texts, the less pressure you'll have in future conversations. Be yourself and don't filter what you are going to say. A text conversation can sometimes get interesting and there's no way to direct the conversation. Instead of trying to force things, just go with the flow and text naturally. Listen to what they have to say and open up when they start opening up to you. If you want to ask for a date or to ask a deeper or more intimate question, wait until it feels appropriate to do so. Don't get personal too fast or else they may be turned off by you. Being pushy or sending too many texts in a row can turn a person off and cause them to ignore you. Instead, play it cool and wait for them to respond. If they don't initially respond quickly, it could be because they are busy. As a rule of thumb, you should wait for a response after sending two texts.


Задавайтесь большими вопросами. Придите с вашей верой к высшей силе. Говорите и учитесь в других верующих. Подумайте о том, чтобы принять религию.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you suspect you might have a desire for knowledge and for satisfaction that can't be easily answered, you might need to turn to deeper questions to find solace. Whether you consider yourself a spiritual person or not, considering the big questions can lead many people to a new sense of purpose and fulfillment, helping to realign priorities and perspectives. Why are we here? What does it mean to lead a good life? Embrace the difficulty and the mystery of these questions. Whether you want to call it "god" or not, learning to give up some of your ego and embrace the idea of a higher power can be a powerful experience for a lot of people. It can be enough to save yourself. If you're not interested in religion, that doesn't mean you can't find a way to live faithfully and with a deep sense of purpose. Physicists, artists, and people in lots of different fields are serious to the point of deep spirituality regarding knowledge. Throw yourself into something entirely and find redemption in work. An essential part of any religious practice is worshipping with like-minded believers. To learn more about whatever purpose, practice, or religion you're thinking of adopting, the best way to learn isn't from a book or from a video, but from real interactions with other believers. try to practice as they practice and bring your questions and concerns to the table. Deepen your questions into beliefs and a daily practice that you can comfort yourself with. Spiritual practice should be a daily activity. Even if you only go to church once a week, or if you choose not to go to church at all, try to build some kind of daily devotion into your life. Meditating for a few minutes every day can help you keep you tied back into those deep questions you're interested in. If you want to grow in your renewed sense of purpose and your interest in the divine, it may be appropriate to devote yourself to an organized religion. Start by learning as much as you can about different modes of worship and experimenting with different theologies...

The best questions are neither too open-ended nor too limited. "Yes or No" questions halt discussion, while overly broad questions (such as "What do you think about Romeo and Juliet?") questions also tend to discourage discussion. The best questions are balanced; they are open enough that there seem to be a few good answers, yet closed enough that people know how to approach them, and feel motivated to start talking. For example, suppose you're discussing Romeo and Juliet. You may start by asking, "In what ways does the Friar make mistakes in guiding Romeo? In what ways does he succeed?" This question doesn't feed any answers, but leads students in a productive direction. As the discussion leader, you should come into the meeting with several "big" questions. Be prepared to ask the next one when discussion dies down, when people need more food for thought. The more prepared you feel when you walk into a classroom, the more confident you'll look. If you look confident in your ideas and your approach, students will be more likely to respect you and to cooperate.  It can be helpful to give participants 1-2 questions in advance to give them more time to provide thoughtful contributions when the discussion comes. Also, it can be helpful to give participants the questions you'll discuss in class, on paper, or on the board. Some students learn better and think more effectively if they have the questions out in front of them. This can also be an excellent reminder of the main question for the day. In a 2 hour discussion, 2-5 good questions should suffice. It is also good to have 2 or 3 smaller sub-questions for each main question. However, you should prepare for at least 1.5 times as much material as you think you'll cover, just in case students are particularly reticent that day or in case one line of inquiry wasn't as fruitful as you thought it was. Everyone knows how to have a conversation; but a thoughtful discussion is more intentional and more focused than just a chat.  If you want to start the conversation off...


Задайте вопросы, на которые вам важно получить ответы. Обсудите, что вы чувствуете по отношению к этой интрижке. Выслушайте, что чувствует супруг. Создайте границы для разговоров об интрижке. Определите результат отношений.

Some partners prefer not to hear the details of the affair, but if knowing them will help you forgive and recover, ask. Try to focus on emotional questions rather than logistical questions. For example, instead of asking which hotel they met in, ask your husband why he decided to cheat. This is a healthier way to move towards forgiveness.  Ask questions you need to know the answers to. For example, ask your husband if he’s been tested or is willing to be tested for STIs (also known as STDs). Ask your husband if he intends to leave you or if he wants to stay and make the relationship work. Clarifying this as soon as possible will help you prepare for the future and move forward. Affairs can bring up many feelings, fears, and insecurities. For example, if you’re worried about him cheating again, you’re concerned he doesn’t love you, or you can’t get over how unfair this is toward you, say this to him. It’s important for him to know how the affair affects you and what difficulties you are facing in moving forward. When talking about your feelings, keep them focused on yourself by using “I” statements. This will allow you to express yourself without going into blaming or shaming your husband. For example, say, “I feel so hurt and disappointed.” He may have excuses or he may have a lot of regret, sorrow and self-loathing to share with you. Hearing your husband take responsibility for his actions and express empathy toward you can be comforting.  It can take some time to accept his words as meaningful and truthful. If you both want your marriage to continue, it is important your husband shows remorse for his actions. While you should try to support his needs in the marriage, you should not have to accept blame for his cheating. Ideally, you do not want the affair to be the center of your relationship. You don’t want to completely ignore the affair, yet you also don’t want it to be the only thing you discuss together. Boundaries can help you discuss it in a healthy and productive way. For example, if one of you...

Once you have spent some time thinking about your personal values, it's time to figure out how to integrate them with the rest of your family. In order to do that, you all need to effectively communicate with each other. Begin the process by asking questions.  Ask your family to join you for a discussion about values. Begin by asking open ended questions such as, "What is most important to our family?" You can also try, "What brings you happiness? How does that affect our family?" Other good questions to ask include, "What makes you most proud about our family?" or "What do you look forward to when you come home?" You could also try "What embarrasses you about our family?" and "What does our family provide for you that you don't get from friends?" Consider having each family member answer these questions individually. Then you can openly and honestly compare answers. Encourage your family members to ask questions, too. During your family discussion, it is important that you all practice good listening skills. To indicate that you are listening, ask follow up questions. For example, if your partner says he values honesty, ask him how that can become more of a focus for the family.  You can also use non-verbal cues to indicate that you are listening. Nod your head when someone is speaking, and smile to indicate you appreciate what is being said. Try to limit interruptions. Ask everyone to put away their cell phones and turn off the tv while you are having this important conversation. Once you have spent some time discussing your family values and enjoying quality time together, you can begin the process of more clearly defining your family values. Take some time to sit down together and make a list of the values that are most important. You can think of these values as firm guidelines that your family is agreeing to live by.  Writing things down can help your family gain mental clarity about shared values. Try writing down items such as "help society" or "religion/spirituality" or "honest communication with...

Spend some time thinking about why you are considering investing in stocks. Are you investing to build an emergency fund for the future, to buy a home, or pay for college expenses? Are you investing for retirement?  It's a good idea to write out your motivation. Try quantify it in dollars, considering how much money you need for your goals. For example, purchasing a home might require a down-payment and closing costs of $40,000. Retirement might cost $1 million or more. Most people have more than one investment goal. Those goals often vary in priority and timing. For example, you may want to buy a house in three years, pay for a child’s education in fifteen years, and retire in thirty-five years. Documenting your investment goals will clarify your thinking and help you focus on the goal. Your investment goals will determine the time during which your investments will remain in place. The longer investments can stay in place, the greater the probability of positive returns.  If your goal is to have money to buy a house in three years, your time frame, or "investment horizon" is relatively short.  If you are investing to fund your retirement 30 years from now, your investment horizon is much longer. The S&P 500 is a collection of 500 of the most widely held stocks. There were only four ten year periods between 1926 and 2011 where the S&P 500 as a whole produced a loss. For holding periods of fifteen years or more, there were no losses. If you bought and held these stocks over the long term, you would have made money. By contrast, holding the S&P 500 for just a single year would have produced a loss 24 times in the 85-year period between 1926 and 2014. Over a short period, stock are extremely volatile. As a consequence, investing for short time periods is riskier than investing for longer time periods. You can gain more if you've invested well. You can lose everything if you've invested poorly. All investments have risks because there is always a possibility that you will lose some of your money. Stocks are no...

If you enjoy more serious seduction, select a dimly lit room, or use candles and lamps instead of overhead lighting. If you want something more fun and lighthearted, keep things more brightly lit and put on some music with a beat. Men's clothing options are often less varied than women's. You can strip from an ordinary outfit, but if you want something more unique, try finding props or costumes that fit a masculine theme, such as cowboy or policeman. If you know how to dance sexily, you can show your sexual partner some moves between items of clothing, or even while you're removing one. If you aren't a dance floor god, however, stick with the occasional hip sway, and turn occasionally to give your partner a view from a different angle. Men's shoes and socks don't tend toward the sexy side, so get rid of these before you get into the swing of things. Toss these aside, somewhere out of the way. If you're wearing a tie, untie it and toss it away, or at your partner, quickly and aggressively. While you can go for the slow, sensuous striptease if you're comfortable with it, most men may prefer a more energetic, aggressive style. Pull the shirt over your head quickly, then yank it off your arms and throw it to the side or at your partner. Alternatively, you can grab the shirt by the lower hem instead of the collar, then use the same motion. If you're wearing a button up shirt, unbutton it from top to bottom while keeping eye contact with your partner. Leave it on until after you've removed your trousers, to give your partner something else to look forward to, or keep it on if your partner likes the "shirt half on" look. Pull off your belt, then step out of them one leg at a time. Take this slowly, to avoid getting your foot caught and reducing the sexiness considerably. Don't try to shimmy out of trousers sexily; due to mysterious laws of the universe, this only works for women. At this point, invite your partner to get the next stage started by removing your boxer briefs, along with your button up shirt if that's...

By far the quickest, most direct way to see if a DJ name is taken is to do a thorough search on your search engine of choice. If another DJ has already chosen your name, his or her website or social media page will usually be included in the results. Keep in mind, however, that obscure artists may not appear on the very first page. Remember that the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence. While seeing another DJ pop up in the search results can be a strong hint that the name you've chosen is already taken, not seeing another DJ isn't necessarily proof that the name isn't taken. For definitive proof, it's best to couple your initial search with one of the other methods below. One way to check whether a certain name has been taken is to use an online name-finding site. These sites usually check large databases of site listings to tell whether the domain name you input has already been registered. Best of all, many of the best name-finders are 100% free. Note again, however, that just because someone hasn't already purchased a website that uses your stage name in its address doesn't mean that no DJ has already taken your name — someone using your name may just not have a strong online presence. In the modern world, even the smallest bands and musical artists often have pages on social network sites like Facebook. Searching popular social networks for usernames or pages that match your DJ name is one great way to check whether it's been taken. Since the most popular social networks are free to join, you have a good chance of uncovering even the most obscure artists this way. While Facebook is the most popular social network site on the planet, it's far from the only one. Thus, you'll save lots of time by using one of several online utilities that instantly search multiple social network sites (like namechk.com) rather than searching each individually. Musical artists' names can legally be trademarked by their owners — this includes names like R.E.M., which have alternate meanings, names like Paul...

If you have been planning to ask them for a while, don’t come on too strong. Keep yourself calm so that when you ask them to hang out it doesn’t come across as desperate. Take a breath and use your regular conversational tone.  You’ll sound too eager if you say, “You are so cool and I really want to spend more time with you.” Be casual when you ask a classmate by saying, “Man everytime we talk, this guy is droning on in the background. We should chill outside of class sometime.” If you had fun with someone at a party, say, “It’s been a great meeting, do you want to catch up later on sometime?” You may have a hard time asking someone to hang out without a specific reason. If you’re asking someone you know you have a common interest with, use that to your advantage. Tell them it would be fun to do the activity together sometime.  If you always talk to a coworker about the Walking Dead, ask them if they want to come over and watch it with you. You know you’re both free when it’s on, and the hangout has a set time frame so they can split when it’s over. You might meet someone that works out at your gym. Since you are probably there around the same time, ask them if they’d want to work out together. Say, “We could both have a spotter and  push each other to work harder.” Say to someone, “I’ve noticed we always seem to be painting in this studio at the same time, would you want to meet up and actually paint together sometime?” It’s no good to ask someone to hang out if you tell yourself they won’t want to. Get in the mindset that you are fun to hang out with and that the person you ask will say yes. If you are confident in yourself and make a direct ask, the person will be more open than if you seem timid when you ask.  Don’t say, “You’re probably busy most of the time and have a lot of other friends already, but we could hang out sometime if you want to it. It’s okay if you would rather not.” For an example, think about a co-worker you’d like to hang out with. Catch them in the break room and say, “We should find...

Instead of asking yourself, “what do I want to do?,” start asking yourself, “who do I want to be?” That answer will provide you with insight on the type of work you will most likely find fulfilling. Imagine that someone is delivering the eulogy for your funeral. What do you hope that person could say about your life and your accomplishments?    Write down a list of possible careers and career fields. Do not be afraid to get wild and creative with this initial list. The idea behind the exercise is simply to brainstorm; you can narrow down the list to a more productive one later on.  Let yourself daydream. Come up with half a dozen or more “ideal” images of the future. Even if the work you are doing in those images seems silly or unrealistic, mark the idea down. It could provide you with some insight on ideas that are more achievable while still being fulfilling.     Ask yourself what others thank you for. If you want to do work that is fulfilling, ask yourself why your loved ones, peers, and colleagues are grateful for you. The actions you naturally take that enrich the lives of others can provide you with clues on how you can figure out career paths that are enjoyable for you and meaningful to others.     Look for patterns in your past. Think about the tasks you have enjoyed doing in the past, even if they are not tasks you do often or are not things that you would usually include among your list of passions. As long as you found some fulfillment in the work before, mark it down as an option of something you might be fulfilled working on in the future.    Once you create your initial list, take a closer look at it. Begin knocking things off that do not seem realistic or appealing and prepare to focus in on the options that may actually lead you to fulfilling work.  Exercise a little realism. At this stage, you need to seriously ask yourself whether or not something you would like to do can be accomplished. Be honest with yourself about your limitations. For instance, if you would like to create a sanctuary...

It can be difficult when you are going through a rough patch, or are in a big fight, to not feel like your relationship is doomed. Before you go about separating yourself from the relationship, make sure you aren't jumping to inaccurate conclusions. Evaluate where your relationship really stands and where you think it is going. Figure out where you are emotionally and maybe where your partner is, before you start mentally detaching from the relationship. Once you begin to distance yourself it can be hard to come back. Ask yourself about the quality of your relationship. Are there more good times than bad times? Are you exhausted or unhappy because of the constant ups and downs? Consider what you have done to try and address whatever problems you have had. Be honest about who, if anyone, is committed to making the relationship successful. If the answer isn't both partners, then the relationship is likely not going to be saved.   Have you talked about it with each other? How many times have you both tried to change things? Have you tried counseling? If you have determined that your relationship is past the point of saving, then begin to accept that it will end. Instead of waiting for it to end, spend time focusing on the good things in the moment and the good things about your relationship. Use this time to discover what good memories you have, what you can learn, or what you can take away from this experience.

Do you often feel like you are the only grown up when dealing with your parents? Are they fixated only on their needs, asking you to help fulfill them instead of taking care of themselves?? Has it been this way for a very long time If this is the case, then your parents may be emotionally immature and you will need to set strong boundaries, work on your own reactions, and stop expecting them to change. If you feel like your parent has become more needy due to declining heath and being unable to functionally take care of themselves, then you will need a different approach. This will require greater sensitivity, and you will likely need the support of siblings and any other family members, as well as outside help. If your parents' neediness is something new, you need to take their overall health into consideration. New behaviors indicate that something has changed in their lives. Ultimately, your parents may want or need extra emotional support because of their deteriorating health. When thinking about this, consider:  Do they have a medical problem? A recent diagnosis of a potentially life-threatening disease may cause a parent to seem more emotionally needy. In the end, they may just want to spend more time with you, or they may need extra support. Have they been diagnosed with a cognitive or psychological problem? Parents with Alzheimer's or other cognitive problems may need extra help and may come off as needy. Do they have mobility limitations? For instance, are they wheelchair-bound or have a related problem? If a parent is unable to move themselves around, they may feel frustrated and want more emotional support. When putting together your plan of how to deal with your emotionally needy parents, you need to consider basic logistical facts. Ultimately, logistics will determine a large part of how you'll deal with your parents. Consider:  How close you live. If you live far away, you may have to attend to your parents over the phone and via email. Let them know that you simply can't visit them as often as...

There are strong arguments on either side — both for and against clipping. Those who caution against it say that birds were meant to fly and we should not interfere with a parrot’s natural inclinations. Clipping the parrot's wings deprives them of this basic freedom. Consider other options first. If you are planning to show your bird, it should never be clipped. Parrots respond very well to clicker training, and you can train your parrot to return to you when called. You can also use clicker training to modify unwanted behaviors, which can help your parrot stay happy and safe. If you are not willing to do the work to train a parrot, then you may want to reconsider if getting a bird is right for you. There are some dangers to letting your bird fly free in your home. They can potentially damage their feathers, knock things over, and consume things that they should not. Many household items can be dangerous to parrots, including toilets and other standing water, lightbulbs and stoves that get hot, ceiling fans, cords to blinds, and windows and mirrors. Ask yourself why you want a bird if you don't want it to fly or don't feel that your home is a safe environment. Consider that a different pet may be more appropriate. Parrots are quick and can take advantage of any open door or window to get out. Once outside, it may be difficult to get bird back if you have not trained them. With clipped wings, the chance of escape is reduced. And if your bird does get out, it’s much easier to get them back. Bird wings should not be clipped until the bird can fly. Clipping too early can stunt the regular growth of the feathers. If you’ve never done it before, it’s advisable to have your vet do it the first time. That way you can see how it works and then decide if you want to continue to do it at home.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It is important to understand the motivation behind wanting to get a cat in the first place in order to choose the best possible cat to bring home.  Some common reasons include:  Wanting unconditional love and constant companionship To fill a void created by the loss of another pet or companion Wanting a friend for your child while also teaching them about responsibility Wanting to take care of someone every day Owning a pet is a big responsibility, and the decision to get a cat can mean signing up for these responsibilities for about 15 to 18 years. It is important to be aware that over the next decade plus, this cat will be in your life as a constant companion, but also as a constant obligation.  Be sure you are willing to take care of a cat throughout your life and theirs before going any further in the process. In addition to the initial cost of the cat, which can be very high if you choose to go to a breeder, you also need to consider other ownership expenses.  Keep in mind you will also need to pay for food, visits to the veterinarian, identification tags, microchipping, and other incidentals, which can really add up quickly.  The ASPCA estimates that the first year alone will cost a cat owner about $1,035. You may really want to get a cat, and you may have the means to do so, but there are a few other requirements you should consider before deciding that a cat is the right choice at this point in your life:  Do you have any other pets and will they react well to a new cat? Are you allowed to have cats at your current residence? Will your work and social life allow time to care for, and interact with, a new cat? What would you do with your cat if you went on vacation? Do you, or anyone else that would commonly interact with the cat, have allergies to cats, cat hair, dirt, or dander? Do you have children who may need a cat with a particular type of temperament?


Задайтесь вопросом, может ли ваш заблуждающийся друг принять правду. Открыто высказывайте свое неодобрение. Сконцентрируйтесь на поведении, а не на личности своего друга. Будьте добры.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Some people will not be willing to hear the truth no matter what.  Think about your friend’s personality in order to gauge whether informing them of your true feelings is a good idea.  Are they willing to accept criticism?  Do they readily admit to being wrong when confronted with compelling evidence?  Do they take responsibility for their actions when wrong?  If so, sharing the truth with your friend is a good idea and will likely make a positive change. If, conversely, your friend is frequently defensive and shifts blame onto others when confronted with evidence of his or her shortcomings, your honest efforts at helping them see that they were in error will be wasted. In the case of a defensive friend, try to broach the subject in a variety of ways.  If they don’t understand that what they did was wrong the first time you explain it, maybe they need to hear it a different way.  Perhaps the first time you broach the subject, you’re indirect: “Do you think that what you said to Sam was kind?”  If they blow you off, make a stronger declaration next time: “You were very rude to Sam.  He deserves an apology.” Do not try to qualify your point of view by agreeing half-heartedly to your friend’s insistence that the other person is wrong.  Do not begin with a statement of praise before delivering the reality-check that your friend is in the wrong.  Finally, do not employ phrases like “With all due respect” or “No offense, but...”  Be direct and honest in your evaluation of your friend and explain why he or she is wrong.  For example, if Sam called Armin stupid directly or indirectly, and Armin (rightfully) refuses to hang out Sam, you should tell Sam “It was unkind and wrong of you to call Armin stupid.  You owe him/her an apology .  That’s the best way to put this conflict behind you.” Do not cover up your feelings of disappointment or frustration.

Once you've recognized areas where you need to improve, you can take the steps to do so. Make positive changes in your life where necessary:  Write out a study schedule and follow it routinely. Consider other activities and obligations you have and allow for plenty of time to complete each assignment. A regular schedule can significantly reduce anxiety and improve performance. Just be sure to avoid procrastination. Get more sleep. The amount of sleep you get heavily affects your mood and ability to absorb and retain information.   Eliminate distractions. Prioritize the things that matter most. Oftentimes, teachers just want to see that you’re willing to put effort into your work. Ask if they’d be willing to let you improve your grade by completing extra assignments. If you can’t change your grade, maybe you can supplement it. It’s a good idea to calculate your grade and figure out what scores you’ll need on the remaining assignments and exams to achieve the final grade you desire in the course. Tutoring centers, teacher office hours, and study groups all exist to help you succeed. Consider restructuring your future study habits by incorporating some of these resources into your routine. While you may not be able to change the grade you’ve received, you can take the necessary steps to improve. Try to consider it a learning experience. Forgive yourself for your mistakes. One bad grade isn’t going to determine your future, and it isn’t going to define your aptitude as a student either.

a rectangle with a height of 6 cm, and a rectangle with a height of 54 cm.  Create a ratio comparing the two heights. Scaling up, the ratio is Scale Factor=546{\displaystyle {\text{Scale Factor}}={\frac {54}{6}}}. Scaling down, the ratio is Scale Factor=654{\displaystyle {\text{Scale Factor}}={\frac {6}{54}}}. Simplify the ratio. The ratio 546{\displaystyle {\frac {54}{6}}} simplifies to 91=9{\displaystyle {\frac {9}{1}}=9}. The ratio 654{\displaystyle {\frac {6}{54}}} simplifies to 19{\displaystyle {\frac {1}{9}}}. So the two rectangles have a scale factor of 9{\displaystyle 9} or 19{\displaystyle {\frac {1}{9}}}. An irregular polygon is 14 cm long at its widest point. A similar irregular polygon is 8 inches at its widest point. What is the scale factor?  Irregular figures can be similar if all of their sides are in proportion. Thus, you can calculate a scale factor using any dimension you are given.  Since you know the width of each polygon, you can set up a ratio comparing them. Scaling up, the ratio is Scale Factor=148{\displaystyle {\text{Scale Factor}}={\frac {14}{8}}}. Scaling down, the ratio is Scale Factor=814{\displaystyle {\text{Scale Factor}}={\frac {8}{14}}}. Simplify the ratio. The ratio 148{\displaystyle {\frac {14}{8}}} simplifies to 74=134=1.75{\displaystyle {\frac {7}{4}}=1{\frac {3}{4}}=1.75}. The ratio 814{\displaystyle {\frac {8}{14}}} simplifies to 47{\displaystyle {\frac {4}{7}}}. So the two irregular polygons have a scale factor of 1.75{\displaystyle 1.75} or 47{\displaystyle {\frac {4}{7}}}. Rectangle ABCD is 8cm x 3cm. Rectangle EFGH is a larger, similar rectangle. Using a scale factor of 2.5, what is the area of Rectangle EFGH?  Multiply the height of Rectangle ABCD by the scale factor. This will give you the height of Rectangle EFGH: 3×2.5=7.5{\displaystyle 3\times 2.5=7.5}. Multiply the width of Rectangle ABCD by the scale factor. This will give you the width of Rectangle EFGH: 8×2.5=20{\displaystyle 8\times 2.5=20}. Multiply the height and width of Rectangle EFGH to find the...

Even if the game requires relative quickness, like speed chess or sports, the player that keeps their cool is usually the one that walks away victorious. Make a habit of controlled, regular breathing while you play, taking your time to make the absolute best choice every time you're up. If you're relaxed and calm you'll have a much easier time sorting through the options and choosing the best one. Instead of trying to think, "what is my opponent thinking?", break the question down into simpler and more effective questions. First, what does my opponent need to win? And secondly, if I was my opponent, what would I be worried about -- what is my weakness? The answer to these two questions almost always points to a worthwhile strategy:  In a game of tennis, imagine you're playing someone with an amazing serve, but poor net play. They will want to hit it hard, keeping you back on the baseline to avoid the net, but you should flip this on it's head and force them to the front-court with short shots and slices. In a board, card, or strategy game, ask yourself each turn what your opponent still needs to do to win. How can you prevent them from getting this? If you're a chess player, there are hundreds of books detailing moves, how to read opponents, and successful long-term strategies. If you're playing cards, mathematicians and game theorists have broken down the proven ways to win for almost any game created, often detailed for free online. Don't try to learn everything through experience -- read up on the success of past players and use it to your advantage.  More than just giving you strategies, reading up on a game's news and tips helps you recognize your opponent's strategy as they try it, helping you cut it off quickly. Even athletes should constantly read up on new advancements. Look no further, for example, than US triple jumper Christian Taylor. After reading up on research and science, he broke conventional wisdom by taking shorter, faster jumps instead of long, slow ones. He then won the gold medal at the...

The sense of smell is very sensitive to the aromas of food and other fragrances. Make something sweet in the morning and the nose will arouse the body to discover what smells so delicious.  Prepare scented tea or strong coffee in the morning. A whiff is sure to motivate them to get out of bed and enjoy a tasty cup-o-Joe or herbal tea. Fill the room with one of their favorite scents. Try citrus smells or one of a variety of popular aerosols used for refreshing the smell of a room. Bake or fry a sweet or bitter dish. Few people can resist the smell of home cooked food. Deliver breakfast in bed. They might not get out of bed, but they will certainly wake up. Whether you need to gently shake the bed, body, pillow, or have natural sunlight hit their face, the sense of touch is another good way to help a deaf or hard of hearing person get up in the morning.  A spouse, parent, child, or roommate can carry out this task if they are reliable. They should take seriously waking up a deaf/hard of hearing friend or family member. Try flashing the bedroom lights on and off quickly to get their attention. Pull back the drapes to let sunlight hit them in the face or on their body. If all else fails, give them a light tap on the arm or gently shake their shoulder until they wake up. Remember, just because you are performing this task as a favor, don’t be rude, insulting, or impatient with your responsibility. Refrain from splashing cold water on their face, whipping off their covers, or pushing them out of the bed. It will only cause resentment. You might be busy getting ready in the morning or perhaps your schedules don’t match up and you are unavailable to help out in the morning. In this case, consider getting a trained hearing dog to perform the duty of wake-up call. Hearing dogs are trained to assist deaf or hard of hearing people by physically alerting their partner to common sounds like an alarm clock.  When the alarm sounds, the hearing dog will nudge their body until they wake up and shut off the alarm. Hearing dogs...

Your rod cells take about 30 to 45 minutes to adapt to a change of light around you. Rod cells can only see black and white and have poor resolution but are very sensitive in night vision circumstances.  Photopigments are chemicals contained in both rod and cone cells that are light-sensitive and convert what you see into a language that your brain can understand. Rhodopsin is a photopigment found in rod cells that is critical to night vision. Your ability to adapt to darkness depends on some things that may be out of your control, such as your age, previous eye injury or damage, and any existing eye conditions. In order to see in the darkness, you need to understand what it takes to improve your utilisation of the rod cells and manipulate your eyes to more quickly adapt to a sudden change in light. If you are trying to look at a dim light, don't look directly at it. By doing this, you are utilising your rod cells instead of your cone cells which would happen if you look directly at the dim light. This trick is often used by astronomers. Rod cells don't pick up the color red, so 20–30 minutes of wearing red tinted glasses before you go into a dark area can help you to detect motion around you more quickly.  By blocking everything in the visible spectrum except red, the glasses will allow your rods to adjust to “darkness” of a sort before you head out. This is a common trick that aviators use when they don't have time to sit in perfect darkness and adjust before night-flying. Light sources will force your pupils to contract and diminish your night vision.  The pupil works like the aperture part of a camera, getting smaller or larger depending on the amount of light that is entering the eye. The more light, the smaller the pupil gets. In lower light situations, your pupil opens wide to let in as much light as possible. By looking directly into a light source, you are extending the amount of time it will take for your vision to adjust, or readjust, to the low light. If you can't avoid looking at a light source,...

Ensure your teen feels like he/she is participating in the rule-building process. Don’t let him/her have the final say or craft his/her own rules entirely, but let him/her know that you’re aware that he/she is growing up and deserves more autonomy.  For example, you might let your child stay out later on weekends. When allowing him/her to do so, do not vaguely say “Don’t stay out too late.” Instead, let him/her know exactly when you expect her to be home. “Be home at 10:00” is a good directive when setting a curfew. When he/she gets his/her driver’s license, you might let him/her drive on his/her own over short distances, then allow longer trips as she gains more experience on the road. Staying connected to your teen can be hard. Teens typically do not want to bond with their parents, but by acknowledging their perspectives and desires, you can help you maintain a strong relationship with them. Bringing your teen into the disciplinary process shows that you respect his/her burgeoning independence, and he/she will appreciate this (even if he/she does not admit it). While a great deal of teen discipline relies on negotiating with your teen in order to reach a win-win situation, there are some things you need to hold the line on. For instance, you might insist that your child never drinks, does drugs, or brings friends over to the house when you or another adult is not home. Let your child know these are unacceptable and nonnegotiable.  If your child violates one of your hard rules, your response can vary. You should first ask your child is he/she knows that you’re uncomfortable with the fact that he/she broke the rule in question. Talk to him/her in a clear, calm way about why you have insisted upon the given rule. For instance, if you tell your child not to drink, you might explain before and after he or she does so that drinking could lead to being taken advantage of, humiliated, or driving drunk and getting seriously hurt or hurting someone else. If your teen refuses to abide by your rules, start with a form...

You may start with tangible rewards (stickers, popsicles, little toys) for every success. Over time, you can gradually wean down to sporadic praise (“great job!” or a hug), but do continue providing positive feedback well after your child has developed good habits that result in regular successes.  Making your child feel good about what they do is one key strategy to avoiding the need to discipline them in the first place. Do not be stingy on rewards. ADHD children need a lot of positive feedback. A lot of small, frequent rewards throughout the day work better than one large reward at the end of the day. Use a low, firm tone of voice when you need to discipline. Using a firm but even voice, say as few words as possible when giving instructions. The more you say, the less they will remember.  One expert reminds parents to “act, don’t yak!” Lecturing a child with ADHD is pointless, while powerful consequences say it all.  Avoid responding to child's behavior emotionally. If you get angry or yell, it may increase your child’s anxieties, fueling their belief that they're a bad kid who never does anything right. In addition, it may also invite your child have the feeling that they are in control since you lost your composure. Children with ADHD need more discipline than average kids, not less. While it might be tempting to give your child a pass on disciplining their behavior because of ADHD, this in fact only increases the likelihood that the behavior will continue.  As with most things in life, If you ignore it, it will escalate and get worse. Your best bet is to deal with the problem behavior the first time it occurs and right away. Enact discipline immediately after the behavior so that your child can connect their behavior with the discipline and your response. In this way, they will learn over time that this behavior comes with consequences, and hopefully stop engaging in the specific behavior. Children with ADHD can be impulsive and often do not consider the consequences to their actions. They often fail to...

Most people could stand to be a little healthier. See if your family wants to get in on the action. Talk to your parents about making healthier changes for the whole family. For instance, you could say to your parents, "I don't feel like I'm at a healthy weight, and I'd like to make some changes. What do you think about getting the whole family involved? I think we could all be a little healthier." If possible, it's best to keep junk food out of your house completely. However, if other people in your house still eat it, then you obviously can't do that. You can ask them to hide it away from you, though. Maybe the rest of the family could have a special cabinet for junk food that you don't go into, or maybe they could keep special snacks in their rooms, when possible. If you can't see it, you'll be less likely to eat it. You're going to not do what you're supposed to sometimes. It's just human nature. The key is to do it in moderation. Try to do the right thing about 90 percent of the time, and you'll be fine. Beating yourself up isn't going to help the situation. It's best if you can sit down to a meal with your family, as you can all enjoy a healthy meal together. However, even just sitting down for a meal instead of eating standing up or in front of the television can help you pay attention to what you're eating and learn not to mindlessly plow through your food. If your parents aren't much into cooking, maybe you can learn a few simple, healthy meals to cook for your family once and a while. For instance, baking fish in the oven is fairly simple, and perhaps you can learn how to boil vegetables. If you're interested, ask your parents if you can take a basic cooking class. Breakfast gives you enough energy to start your day. Plus, when you eat breakfast, you won't be as hungry later. That means you won't be as tempted to snack throughout the day. Include a little bit of protein, whole grains, and a fruit or veggie if you can. For instance, try a bowl of oatmeal with some low-fat yogurt and blueberries. You...

Studies show that humor can effectively help deflect criticism and improve social relations. A well-timed joke can derail an argumentative exchange and increase your rapport with the other person.  Joke about something that's present to you both and will distract from the hostility, such as the weather or something funny about the room. Make sure the joke isn't at the other person's expense! Fogging is an assertive communication technique that allows you to give a little ground without giving too much. You can use this to let the other person know that you're willing to take an honest look at yourself and not block their criticism out completely, even if you disagree with it overall. Example: If the person says you're always late to meetings, you can reply with yes, I was late to the meeting yesterday. You can use "negative assertions" if the person has a genuine point about your behavior and you want to let them know that you agree with the specific criticism, without allowing the criticism to define you as a person. Admitting fault doesn't have to reflect on you as a person, especially if you recognize the behavior is negative and have a desire to change. Example: If you are frequently late to meetings, you can say yes, I've been late to a lot of meetings recently. I'm sorry about that. I'll try to be on time from now on. One way to make sure people recognize your integrity and grace is to ask them if they have any other criticisms you could address together. This shows your willingness to be honest with yourself as well as your lack of need to be defensive, because you accept yourself even if you have critics, because you can see them as opportunities for improvement Sometimes, the most graceful method of dealing with hostile criticism is to leave the room. This will allow the other person to cool down and protect yourself from danger. Defending yourself by avoiding challenges can be just as productive and healthy as facing them, under the right circumstances.

Let's take Steve Jobs. A really powerful guy. Eloquent, charming, rich as hell. Now imagine him at a meeting where he's slumped over, ignoring everyone, and just playing on his iPhone, face adorned with a slight scowl. Not exactly a guy you'd peg for having presence, huh? So even if you are the one in the room with the most presence, you gotta show it. So spread out. The room is yours. Feel free to spread out her legs. People who are more confident are more comfortable taking up a bit more room. Put your arms on the table. Lean forward a bit, into the person who's talking to show you're engaged. Nod when it's clear they're trying to get a not-so-crystal point across. Look them in the eye. Be there in mind, spirit, and body. If you've never thought about your walk before, it's time to start. In fact, it's time to experiment! Your mind takes cues from your body, so you may even feel the confidence ooze through you when you walk more confidently. Go on, try it!  Walk back and forth across the room with your head held a bit above 90 degrees and your shoulders back. Walk at a moderate pace. How's it feel? Now walk back and forth across the room with your head down and your shoulders hunched over a bit. Walk slowly. At the end of your walk, hold that position. How do things feel different? A huge part in engaging with people, in showing them that you're listening because women hate being ignored and to show that you don't care, is eye contact. Plenty of nice guys don't get the girl because they can't look at her, plenty of salesmen don't make the sale because their sideways glances give them away, and plenty of people don't seem confident and put together because they're too afraid to make that connection. People see you regardless of whether or not you're looking at them, so why not look back? For the record, there's a huge difference between eye contact and staring. A good rule of thumb is to look at the person (and do blink!) while they're making a point. If you're responding, switch it up a little, or if the...

Mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime. Walk around your house and make note of any cracks, holes, vents, openings, or other access points. Seal these with metal or cement to keep mice and other rodents from entering. It’s also a good idea to put screens around chimneys, to use weather stripping on doors and windows, and to repair all window screen holes. Mice and other rodents often hide or make homes in woodpiles, shrubbery, and other items that are stored near your house. Keep shrubs and long grass trimmed, trim branches that are overhanging your roof, and store firewood, barbecues, patio furniture, and other items at least 20 feet away from your house. Mice will eat all sorts of things, including scraps, garbage, crumbs, pet food, seeds, fruit, and more. To ensure mice don’t find a food source in or around your home, there are many steps you can take:  Store food in airtight glass containers Clean floors, counters, and pantries regularly Store pet-food and trash in rodent-proof containers Clean up fallen birdseed Pick fresh fruits and vegetables immediately Address leaks, moisture problems, and other fresh water sources

Use waterproof silicone caulk or sealant to fill in cracks or holes. Windows or doors are popular entry points for ants.  This will make it more difficult for ants to find a way inside. Try to seal as many holes or cracks as possible. You may not be able to get every single spot, but this will help with overall ant prevention. The ants will be attracted to the bait, then get stuck and die. Baits come in either gels, granules, or stations. Most baits also come in two forms: sugar-based or protein/grease-based. You can use any type of bait, though it is recommended to use one that has both sugar and protein bases. Use insecticide around where the ants are entering your house to deter them from coming back. Keep about 4 inches (10 cm) between your spray and the surface you are spraying. This will prevent more ants from coming inside.  You want to spray enough to wet the surface, but not soak it. Use an insecticide that contains bifenthrin, permethrin, or deltamethrin. For more serious ant issues, you can also spray around the perimeter of your house. Exterminators can help assess the problem and catalogue the extent of the damage. For severe carpenter ant infestations, an exterminator is your best bet to help remove the repeat infestations and apply insecticide as needed.  Call a few exterminators to compare prices and make sure you're getting the best deal possible. You might have carpenter ants if you have any damaged or wet wood in the house.

Earwigs can gain access to your home by way of tiny entry points on your window screens. Use superglue to patch up any small holes and tears on your screens. Fix any gaps that are bigger than 1 inch (2.5 cm) by gluing on patches of screen material using a strong adhesive.  If your screen is very damaged, replace it entirely to prevent pests from entering your home. Earwigs are likely to gain access to your home through gaps around your doorways or windows.  Use a caulking gun to fill in small gaps in these areas. Do this yearly to avoid unwanted pests from entering. Dampness is the ideal condition for earwigs to live and reproduce. Prevent this condition by checking your water sources in the bathroom, kitchen, basement, and outdoors to make sure that there are no leaks. Fix leaking pipes on your own or call a plumber for assistance. Most light bulbs emit a blue wavelength that attracts bugs. Sodium lights, which are often used as grow lamps for seeding plants, emit a more yellow hue. Replace light bulbs on your porch or around your windows with sodium light bulbs. Purchase sodium lightbulbs at hardware stores or online.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Run a bead of silicone along the leak area using a caulking gun. Then smooth that bead out, with a damp finger or a caulking tool, so that the silicone is smoothed out and it completely covers the seam that leaked.  Check with a professional aquarium supply for recommended repair products. Make sure that if you use silicone, it is labeled "nontoxic" and "100% silicone". Also make sure that the silicone sealant has NO fungicide in it and is a High Modulus product. You may be tempted to try and repair the leak from the outside of the tank, but usually the repair is more effective if made on the inside. A repair on the inside will hold better, since water pressure will "tighten" the seal pressing the silicone against the glass. If it is applied on the outside, the water pushes the silicone away from the glass. Silicone needs to dry and cure for a minimum of 24 hours. If you are applying it in a cool and dry environment, you may need to wait closer to 48 hours. This time will allow it to set completely, assuring that it attaches properly to the glass and does not leak. You may use a heat lamp or other portable heat source to help cure the sealant, but do not heat above 110 degrees (F). Refill the tank enough so that there is some water in contact with the repaired seam. Wait a few hours and then fill the tank even further and then look for leaks. Finally, fill the tank all the way and then look for leaks. Take a close look at the area that was leaking and wait awhile to make sure that the water pressure inside the tank doesn't reopen the leak.  Try taping a paper towel to the outside of the tank where the leak was and leaving it there for an hour or so. If the towel remains dry, your leak is fixed. Keep towels and a bucket nearby, in case of continued leaking. This will allow you to quickly remove the water from the aquarium once again. the tank back up. If you have removed everything from the tank, including gravel, fish, and plants, you will need to replace them when you are confident the leak is repaired....
