Article: No successful person has gotten where they are without pushing through "perceived" limitations and failures. Winston Churchill flunked the sixth grade. Oprah Winfrey was told she wasn't fit enough for television. Colombia Pictures thought that Marilyn Monroe wasn't pretty enough, and Walt Disney was told he lacked imagination! However, none of these individuals sat around and sulked in their apparent faults. They went out and made it happen and you can, too! Join a group that has the same interests as you, like veganism or chess. When you see someone you would like to meet, be natural and ask him or her about something that pertains to the moment. Does this cheese have rennet or is it a vegan cheese? Volunteering is another great way to meet people. It gets you out of your normal routine and helping others is a good feeling, too. For all kinds of reasons, someone may not want to get to know you, and you may never know why. Try not to take it personally because they really don't know you. Perhaps he or she is a particular religion or race and has been raised to only become friends with people from his or her community. It's okay to fail. It's how we learn what works and what doesn't. Whether it's an inspired idea, a blind date or an unexpected career opportunity, embrace it as a chance to grow. Too many people live in fear, and never tap into how great they really are! Most people have lots of opinions. Take into consideration what others say, but you don't always have to believe what they say about you. Often, it's just projections based on their own fears! Many are fine going unnoticed in the world, not straying from the opinions of others, and not ruffling any feathers. On the inside, though, these are the ones hoping for positive change. Be the lone duck from the crowd, and stay true to yourself. As long as you're not hurting anyone or yourself, then it's fine. The most important thing is you tried. It takes confidence to put yourself out there, so pat yourself on the back for it! There are many people on the planet. Eventually, you will find your tribe.

Article: Fill your cleaned perfume bottle with lukewarm tap water. Put a few slim buds, such as baby breath sprigs, into the bottle as a pretty decorative accent. Place your perfume-bottle vase on a windowsill, your vanity, or the kitchen table to add some cheer to your home. Create your own custom scent by blending essential oils that appeal to you most. Dilute your oil mix with vodka or another neutral alcohol, and dab it on pulse points behind your ears or on your wrists for a subtle scent. A little essential oil goes a long way. Typically for perfume you dilute 10-12 drops of essential oil in half as many drops of water and add 2 fluid ounces (59ml) of alcohol. Shake the homemade perfume before applying it to mix the oil and to dilute the solution. You can cap your bottle with a small cork from a craft shop. Use pretty empty perfume bottles as table decor for a wedding or baby shower. You can mix the old bottles among vases of different sizes filled with flowers for a refined, eclectic look. Bottles for timeless scents, such as Chanel No. 5, can provide a touch of classic elegance to your event. Place almost-empty perfume bottles in your lingerie drawer to give your clothes a subtle scent. The residual perfume in the bottle is just enough to add a delicate fragrance to your closet. For this use, it's best to keep the nozzle on your perfume rather than removing it. Simply pop off the cap of the perfume and place the near-empty bottle of fragrance in your drawer. Tie a decorative string around the neck of your perfume bottle in a loop to turn your vessel into a hanging ornament. You can hang it on the Christmas tree or on a hook in your window as a pretty suncatcher. Bottles with ridges or exterior patterns in the glass refract lots of light and make great suncatchers. Place a slim birthday candle in the open top of your perfume bottle for a small, elegant light. You can use these candles as an alternative to tea lights in a meditation room or on your dining room table for some mealtime ambiance. Use a candle that fits securely in the open hole of your perfume bottle for the best fit. When the candle is lit, it will drip wax down the bottle. Replace your candle with a new one when it has burned out completely. The layers of wax on the bottle can add a romantic flair to your candleholders. Fill your perfume bottle halfway with aromatic essential oils or room spray. Place a few wooden skewers into the perfume sharp end down. The oils will creep up the skewers and slowly diffuse a pleasing scent into your room. A powder room is a great spot for an elegant room diffuser. Create your own custom blend of essential oils that suits your taste. You can buy essential oils online or at your local health food store.

Article: Compare data from multiple areas, and use the contrasting population densities to make observations about those areas. For example: if the city of Boonesville includes 60,000 people overs its 8 square miles, then its population density is 7,500/square mile. You can see that the population density of Auburn is far higher than the population density of Boonesville. Consider whether you can use this difference to draw any conclusions about the two cities. Even if you calculate the population density of an area as dense as a large city, the resulting figure will not tell you much about the differences between individual neighborhoods. You may need to find the density for various area scales in order to fully understand a place. Calculate the projected population growth for a given area, then compare the current population density with the predicted future density. Look for census data from the past, and try comparing past population densities with the current figure. Try to understand how a place has changed and will change. It is simple and straightforward to calculate population density in this way, but it may not reveal more intricate details about an area. This is highly dependent upon the size and type of the area for which you are calculating population density. The formula sometimes says more about smaller, densely-inhabited areas than it does about larger areas that include both inhabited and uninhabited land. Say that you calculate the population density of a county that is home to a huge amount of open land and national forest, but also to a very large city. The population density of the county at large will not tell you much about the density of the city: the actual space where people live. Remember that population density is just an average. It may not correspond exactly to the population count of an area. If not, consider why. Try calculating the density for a smaller area within the original area. Make predictions about an area given when you know about high and low population densities. For instance, areas with high population densities tend to have higher crime rates and higher prices for housing and goods. Low-density areas tend to feature more agriculture, and they often include more wilderness or open space. The conclusions that you draw about a given area or areas will depend upon your purposes. Think about how you can make this data insightful.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Compare population density. Try including population growth. Be aware of the limitations. Think about the data.
