Problem: Article: Smiling makes you appear happier to other people, which in turn makes you more attractive. The act of smiling even makes you happier, so it's not just an act, because your brain releases neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin when you smile that make you feel good. In addition, seeing a person smile is actually coded as a reward in other people's brains. When you smile at them, they feel rewarded. In turn, they come to associate good things with you. Also, smiling at another person makes them want to smile, which will make them happier, getting you noticed. A person who is all tied up in themselves is a big turn off for most people. Being a giving person will get you noticed, especially if you are going out of your way to not be noticed. In other words, be generous, but don't flaunt it. People will notice anyway. Try volunteering. Volunteering will help others see you as a selfless person, plus it will get you out in the community to meet people. Also, volunteering will help you feel better about yourself and help you build confidence. Confidence is often very attractive to people, even more so than good looks. However, there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Confidence is knowing that you have good qualities but not spouting off about them every chance you get. If you know you have confidence in yourself, it will show in your mannerisms, so you don't have to talk about it. One way to build self-confidence is to take some time to list your strengths, achievements, and good qualities. Try to consider all the good things about yourself. If you can't get started, ask a friend to help, or think about compliments you've received in the past. Another way to build confidence is stop talking negatively about yourself or at least, try to change the conversation into something somewhat good. For example, if you want to say, "I feel ugly," you could say instead, "I don't feel very attractive today, but I'm thankful this body is living and breathing and is letting me enjoy life." Fake confidence. If you can't bring yourself to feel confident yet, start acting confident. Faking confidence is mostly about the way you present yourself, such as speaking clearly, talking in a loud enough tone for the situation, and looking people in the eye. Also, stand up straight, as slouching implies a lack of confidence. Even if you aren't the most beautiful person on the planet, having good hygiene and staying sharp-looking go a long way towards attractiveness. Maintaining a good appearance tells other people that you are confident in yourself, even if you're not. Confidence is a big attraction for most girls. Part of taking care of yourself is just making sure you're practicing good hygiene. Take a shower once a day or at least once every other day, brush your teeth twice a day, floss, and clean under your fingernails. Presenting yourself as unkempt is often a turn off. Deodorant and cologne can also help. Take care of your hair. You don't need a trendy haircut. However, it's good to get regular haircuts to rid yourself of dead ends and to keep your hair from being unruly. In addition, make sure to comb and style it every day so it's not out of control. Pick clothing that fits you well and looks good on your body. Plus, make sure you are comfortable in whatever clothing you choose.
Summary: Smile at girls. Be selfless. Work on your confidence. Take care of yourself.

Problem: Article: The wheels of cars, trucks, and other vehicles will be affixed to the axle with between four and eight lug nuts, used to center the wheel and secure it onto the vehicle. Some European cars will have lug bolts instead of nuts, though the removal process should be exactly the same. On some cars, locking lugs are used to keep the wheels from being stolen. This is usually only necessary for one lug nut per wheel, and it should look different than the others. These require a special key to unlock require the use of a key to loosen the lock on the end of the lug nut. On some locking lug nuts you can hammer on a 12 point socket and remove the locking lug bolt instead of using the special key. The hardest part is that you also need a vice to put the socket in to hit the locking lug nut off with a punch. A lug wrench, sometimes called a tire iron, tire tool, or a t-bar, should be provided in your vehicle's tire kit, along with a jack and a spare tire. Lug wrenches should fit the lug nuts used on your wheel assembly perfectly, and in most cases you shouldn't need other tools to remove them. Lug wrenches can be either a straight bar or two crossed bars, which is sometimes called a "spider wrench." The crossed bars give you extra strength, because you can grab onto either side with your hands and twist with all your arm strength. If your lug nuts are stuck on because of rust, over-tightening, or some other factor, read the next section for tips on loosening especially tenacious lug nuts. Don't jack up the car before you attempt to loosen lug nuts. Instead, use the resistance created by the tire's contact with the ground to help you loosen the nuts. They won't spin if they're on the ground, which means you'll be able to remove them much more easily.
Summary: Park the car on a level surface, and set the parking brake. Examine the lug nuts. Use a lug wrench to remove lug nuts. Begin loosening the lug nuts while the car is still on the ground.

Problem: Article: A podiatrist is an expert on foot conditions. They'll examine your foot and may take X-rays so you get the proper treatment.

The doctor will order the orthotics on your behalf, then they'll make sure the inserts fit properly. Use your orthotics according to your doctor's recommendations. You'll need to remember to wear them with whatever shoes you choose each day. It's best to work with a physical therapist if you want to strengthen your arches and the muscles around them.
