Write an article based on this "Write down your plan. Tell someone. Make up a reward system."
article: This is a two-fold action: what you're looking to change and what you're looking to become. You can't have one without the other. This is a huge endeavor to accomplish; you'll need to know the battle you're picking before you begin. How will your projected new character contribute towards your development as a person? Many people will at this stage come to the conclusion that a personality change is not needed, but rather one small habit that has a negative effect on your interactions with others. Would just a tweak do the trick? If there is someone you wish you were more like, distinguish what is it you want to emulate. Don't just look at a person and say "Yes, I want to be like that." Find out exactly what it is that you admire -- is it how they handle situations? Their manner of speaking? How they walk or, move? More importantly, how does this contribute to their well being? Part of the reason Alcoholics Anonymous is said to be successful is because you take something you wouldn't usually talk about, and you put it out in the open. Having someone else hold you accountable provides you with an extrinsic motivation you wouldn't otherwise have. Talk to a friend about what you're looking to accomplish. If they're a trusted confidante, they'll be able to prod you in the right direction (either by telling you that you're being ridiculous or by keeping you on track). The extra brain power and set of eyes a little bit farther away from the painting, if you will, can help you see how you should behave and what impression you're giving off. This can be absolutely anything. Anything. It could be as small as moving marbles from one pocket to the other or as large as a vacation. Whatever it is, make it worth it to you. And set up checkpoints while you're at it. If you walk up to that beautiful girl or handsome guy and get one word out, fantastic. That's something. If, the next week you walk up to her and get out a whole anecdote, great! Have rewards for everything; it's all a challenge.

Write an article based on this "Find herbs that have similar watering and sunlight needs. Pick 3 to 4 herbs that you like to cook with. Try some aromatic or flowering herbs. Consider different varieties of the same herb. Get young plants from the nursery rather than seed packets. Choose herbs that vary in height for a more pleasing display."
article: Since you will be planting your herbs in the same pot, you have to make sure that they are compatible. Some herbs, such as parsley, love water and need soil that is constantly moist. Other herbs, such as rosemary, prefer when soil is left to dry between watering. If your herbs don't have the same watering and sunlight needs, you should plant them in separate pots. Thyme is another herb that doesn't like too much water, and would make a great pot-mate for rosemary. You should also take lighting needs into consideration as well. Most herbs require about 6 hours of sunlight, but some need more. Once you have narrowed your list down to compatible herbs, pick 3 to 4 herbs from that list that you like to cook with. For example, if you find yourself using a lot of basil in your cooking, but hate the taste of chives--pick the basil and skip the chives. If you can't decide what type of herbs to grow, consider any of these popular choices: Basil Mint Oregano Parsley Rosemary Thyme Most herbs will flower, including basil and rosemary, but some herbs are actual flowers, such as chamomile and lavender. You can add these into the same pot as the rest of your culinary herbs, or you can put them into their own pot. Most flowering herbs are safe to use in cooking, such as lavender. They are more popular in tea, however, such as chamomile. Some herbs aren't actual flowers, like chamomile, but still have a nice fragrance. Sage is a great example. Did you know that there are different species of both mint and basil? If you really like to cook with a certain herb, research the different varieties that this herb comes in, and plant them all in the same pot. Mint: chocolate mint, peppermint, spearmint, and sweet mint Oregano: Greek oregano, Italian oregano, and hot & spicy oregano Parsley: Flat Italian parsley and curled parsley Thyme: English thyme, French thyme, German thyme, and lemon thyme While you can certainly start herbs from seeds, it is much easier to start them from young plants bought at a nursery. Not only are they easier to take care of, but you'll be able to harvest them sooner. Nurseries are not the only place to buy herbs. Many grocery and natural food stores also set potted herbs. Starting herbs from seeds is more time consuming, but costs less money. If desired, you can start seeds in a small pot on a sunny windowsill indoors. Much like other plants and flowers, herbs don't all grow to be the same height. Some herbs, such as thyme, are much shorter than other herbs, such as rosemary. Using herbs that grow to different heights will make your herb pot look more interesting than using herbs that all grow to be the same height. If you really want herbs that all grow to the same height, take texture into consideration. Rosemary is shrubby and spiky while chives are slender and thin. Different varieties of the same herb count. Many of them look different from each other.

article:
A cord clip can help prevent a tangled mess of cords and wires. You can purchase cord clips at your local hardware store or online. Try affixing the cord clips to the back of a table or desk. Then position the electrical cord in the clips. You can purchase a surge protector that also houses unsightly electrical cords. Try using a surge protector with cord storage. Mount it on the wall under a television, computer, or other appliance that is wrought with unsightly cords. If you can't hide the cords behind another object in the room, try wrapping it in a spiral cord cover. You can purchase electrical cord covers online or at your local hardware store. Choose a cover that matches your walls or floor, or buy a paintable cover for a custom fit. If you need to hide electrical cords on your walls, try disguising them with a flat wire covering. Once you have placed the flat wire covering over the electrical cord, attach the covering to the wall. Paint over the flat wire covering to help the cord and its covering blend into the wall. If you need to corral multiple electrical cords, try attaching them together with a binder clip. You can then hang the binder clip on a nail, screw or hook that is in an inconspicuous place, like the back of a piece of furniture.
