article: Acoustic panels or drywall padding can make the sound produced by drums far less likely to bleed through the room that houses the kit. However, sound insulation is expensive, and often requires a fair amount of work and restructuring of the room itself. Cheaper options for soundproofing your room include sound absorbing strips that can be placed along the ceiling, the bottom of doors, and walls. If you can't afford acoustic foam, hang blankets or quilts on your walls. The fabric may not be ideal, but will help absorb the sound. Further sound insulation to a room requires more exhaustive changes to the structure of the room, such as decoupling the sheetrock from the wall framing. Contact a carpenter (and your landlord) if you plan on making such changes. Make sure the doors and windows are sealed properly to keep sound from escaping. Sound-isolated rooms built correctly are airtight, so ventilation is a must for such rooms. Makes sure you look for a ventilation system that doesn't compromise your sound isolation. Drum screens, also called drum shields, redirect the sounds created by drums. The hinged plastic sheets can be angled to direct the sound exactly where you desire, such as away from your parents' bedroom. Drum screens are useful for practice, but note that the overall sound produced will be different than an open drum. Remember that these screens redirect sound often reverberating right back into your ears. Invest in some ear buds to save your hearing when using a shield. Try coupling the shield with any sound absorbing material you've placed in your room. Aim the shield so that the sound is redirected into the material.

article: Aside from countless other health benefits associated with meditation, you can give yourself an oxytocin boost by focusing on positive thoughts about someone. To do so, sit down somewhere quiet and free of distraction. Close your eyes and simply think complimentary or hopeful things about one person in particular. You may even want to focus on one mantra, such as "Sebastian is wonderful." Simply repeat this thought to yourself over and over, while pushing away any other thoughts that arise. The oxytocin boosts associated with physical contact are not limited to contact with other humans. In fact, another surefire way to increase your oxytocin levels is by petting a dog. Always ask before petting a stranger's dog, of course. Note that you may find yourself talking to the person as wellyou are more likely to have positive social interactions with the people around you when a dog is around. You can get massive oxytocin spikes by participating in moderately stressful activities. This is especially true when you share such an experience with other people. Classic examples include activities like riding a roller coaster or skydiving. By experiencing something exhilarating together, you are quickly bonded to those around you. This occurs in part because of a flood of oxytocin released by your brain after an activity that feels dangerous. In fact, any sort of "adventure" with someone else can boost both of your oxytocin levels. Even a walk around the block with someone will have positive effects on your brain chemistry, as well as your feelings towards one another. If you're on your own and looking for an oxytocin boost, audio can help. Whether you put on some relaxing music or sing along to your favorite tune, both will positively affect your brain chemistry. Giving time or money to another person or organization can boost your oxytocin too. In short, being more generous will wind up making you feel more appreciated. Positive feedback loops form when people work together for a common interest and are grateful for one another's contributions.

article:
A resume is the initial mode of communication to an employer that you are interested in an open position. Your resume should clearly reflect who you are and that you possess the skills and abilities that merit an interview. Resumes should summarize your education, work history, and any other experience, volunteer work, or responsibility that make an excellent candidate for the position. There are plenty of websites dedicated to writing an excellent resume. Try to choose one from an academic or recently updated source since strategies change frequently on the job market. The design of your resume should be clear, crisp, and without error. Refuse using colors other than white and unless you want an artsy position, keep your resume professional and aesthetically pleasing. Proofread your resume several times and then have someone else do it once or twice. Employers will certainly find your errors. Never lie or exaggerate anything on your resume. Even if an employer does not catch it before they hire you, they can still fire you if they catch it later. Focus on skills and abilities that you possess if you have little or no work experience. Good networking starts with a plan. A good plan starts by realizing what talents, strengths, and skills you possess or could add value to the position you desire. Think about it deeply and write them down. One of the most important strategies in networking is to start early and make sure that you keep a balanced approach. Remember, you have to not only look for a job but be able to convey what you can do to help your potential employer. Be sure to make your own business cards and, if possible, update your online profiles in case a potential employer wants to search for you at a later date. Follow up on any leads and stay in touch with the people who you networked with. A position might open up at a later date and you don't want people to forget who you are. An interview is an opportunity to convince a potential employer that you the necessary skills, knowledge, and experience for the position. Be prepared, dress well, be on time, and smile. Make sure you research the internet for all there is to know about your potential employer. This will demonstrate that you are interested in the business and make you stand out as an applicant. Think about what questions they might ask you based on the profession and your research. Reread your resume, they will ask you several questions about it. Dress appropriately. Don't be too formal or too casual, wear neutral colors, and make sure you are not too wrinkly. Prepare extra copies of your resume, buy a notepad and pen, a portfolio of your work, and any other information you might need to complete an application form. Try to prepare all of these items the night before so you are not scurrying around the house minutes before you have to leave. Prepare a list of questions for the end of the interview. Employers will always ask if you have any questions. If you say "no" this could be seen as rude, not prepared, or uninterested. Once you arrive, be mindful of your actions in the waiting room, sit up straight, be attentive, project confidence, and be respectful and courteous. Otherwise, you will have no chance.
