You will get hot if it's not. You need to have confidence on the field. Keep a positive attitude. Above, softball is mentioned as being a mental game. You cannot give the other team your mind. Make sure you vision yourself doing whatever you do in a game. Take a deep breath and do not get stressed over one mistake, because one can turn into six, and so on. Concentrate, no matter who is watching or what someone is saying. Recognize what your error is when your not pitching or playing well. The faster you recognize and fix your errors without stressing out over them, the better you will become. (as long as you practice frequently) No matter what, don't lose your confidence.

Q: The criteria for becoming a Microsoft MVP is intentionally vaguethere isn't a specific checklist of qualifications you should aim for. Generally speaking, however, you need to possess the following 3 attributes in order to be a legitimate candidate for an MVP award: 1) You are not a current Microsoft employee. 2) You're an expert on some aspect of Microsoft products, tech, research, etc. 3) You have a proven passion for sharing your Microsoft expertise widely. Basically, if you don't work for Microsoft but lots of people look to you for Microsoft-related advice, you might have what it takes to be an MVP. MVP awards are category-based, but the list of categories is extensive. The category list also changes from time to time, so check out the most recent listing at https://mvp.microsoft.com/en-us/Pages/mvp-award-update. There are currently 11 award categories, including "Windows Development," "AI," and "Developer Technologies." Each category has 5-15+ "contribution areas" within it, which means that you can target your expertise very specifically. The "Microsoft Azure" category has contribution areas like "Azure Backup & Recovery" and "Enterprise Integration." This is one of the easiest ways to show your passion for helping others with their Microsoft-related questions. It's also one of the best ways to get your name out there as a trusted resource for large numbers of Microsoft users. Since MVP awards are category-based, focus your energies on your areas of expertise. It can't hurt to provide helpful answers in areas that are outside of your main field, howeverthis shows your passion! This is a great way to put your expertise out there for consumption by the Microsoft community. You can reach dozens or even hundreds of people at once, and it's easy to document your role as a conference speaker or panelist for the awards committee. Keep records of the conferences you've spoken at, including the location, date, topic, and estimated audience. Taking the time to share your passion and knowledge in writing is another great way to impress both potential nominators and the awards committee. As with any conference activities, keep detailed records of all your written content. Being able to say, for example, that you literally "wrote the book" on OneDrive will certainly help your case! Don't discount publishing blog posts in comparison to traditional publication routes, though. It's a great way to reach a big audience. If you have a knack for explaining Office 365 to your co-workers, for instance, why not share your talents more widely? Posting tutorials, reviews, or other videos in your area of expertise can help you build a big following that will get you noticed. Connecting with the community in a variety of ways looks good on your candidacy profile, but the sheer number of people you connect with is probably even more vital. If, for instance, you get large numbers of views on your YouTube videos, focus more of your energies there.
A: Share your Microsoft expertise, passion, and knowledge widely. Target your expertise toward current MVP award categories. Answer tech message board questions in your area of expertise. Speak or take part in panels at tech conferences. Write blogs, journal articles, or books in your area of expertise. Post videos for tech consumers on platforms like YouTube.

Article: Measure the 4 interior sides of your box and write the measurements down on a piece of paper so that you can easily refer to them later when you're cutting. You are going to build a railing for the base of your planter to rest flat, so the railing has to run from each interior edge of your legs to the adjacent interior edges. Your length should be 33 inches (84cm) and your width 10.5 inches (27cm) if you're building a medium-sized planter box. Using your 2in 2in (5.1cm 5.1cm) cedar boards, cut 2 longer pieces and 3 shorter pieces. Push your longer pieces in between the legs on the 2 longer sides, using the tension between the legs to hold them in place against the side. Push 2 smaller pieces in between the interior edges of the legs at both ends, and push 1 smaller piece in between the two sides in the middle, relying on tension to hold them still. You need the third piece in the middle to support the weight in the center of your box. Lay a level on top of each section of railing to make sure that they're flat. If they aren't, tap each section lightly with a mallet until they're level. With your pieces forced into place and level, screw your railings into place with 212in (6.4cm) wood screws placed 68 inches (1520cm) apart across each side of your railing. Hold each screw on the outside of your box, and place them so that they're level with the center of the railing. Drill a pilot hole using both hands to guide the screw into the correct location. Once the screw punctures the exterior, brace the inside of the railing with your nondominant hand and hold it in place while the screw goes all the way through the wood. A pilot hole refers to any small incision that you make with a drill head or screw to make the threading on the screw catch easily. To drill a pilot hole in your planter, simply take your drill head and pull the trigger for 1-2 seconds at the exact location where you want your screw to go. Brace the railing 612 inches (1530cm) away from the location that you're drilling so you don't drill into your hand. Make sure that you drill through the center of your center railing. If your center railing seems loose, you can use wood glue to provide some additional support.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Measure the interior sides of your box from leg to leg. Cut your pieces using your circular saw and fit them in by hand. Use wood screws to attach the railings to the frame.
