Q: As soon as you bury the statue, you should say a prayer to St. Joseph, asking for his intercession. The exact prayer can vary, and you can go with a pre-written prayer or a prayer from your own heart. Some prayers "threaten" St. Joseph, essentially stating that he should sell your home for you if he wants to get out of the ground. These prayers somewhat undermine the value of asking for intercession, however, so they are generally not preferred. Consider using a simple, humble prayer, like the following: "O Blessed St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I pray you to join with me in praising God the Father through his divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the holy name of Jesus, pray that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask for: our home sale. We have been unfaithful to the unfailing love of God the Father; beg of Jesus mercy for us his brothers and sisters. Amid the splendors of God's loving presence, do not forget the sorrows of whose who weep. By your prayers and those of your most holy spouse, our blessed Lady, may the love of Jesus answer our call of confident hope. Amen." While saying a single prayer at the time of burial is good, repeating a prayer for intercession each day from that point on demonstrates a greater degree of faith and earnestness. You can say the same prayer each day or offer a different one. Instead of saying a standard prayer each day, you could try saying a novena. A novena is a set of prayers recited over the course of nine days. There are different variations, but essentially, you say a different prayer each day and follow each prayer with an "Our Father." Consider using the following novena: Day One: O God, guide of those who listen and helper of those who hear your voice, speak to me, as you did to St. Joseph, and help me accomplish the things you give me to do. Day Two: O God, you love your people and bless the ordinary lives we quietly live. As you blessed St. Joseph, bless what I do, however hidden and simple it may be, and let all I do be done with love. Day Three: O God, ever faithful, you remember us always and in time reveal your blessings. Help me trust in you, as St. Joseph faithfully trusted, and never let me lose faith in the wonderful gifts you promise me. Day Four: God of families, bless the family that's mine. Keep us safe from harm, and never let evil come between us. Let peace remain in our hearts. Day Five: O God, who loves children, be kind to our children today. Give them eyes of faith for seeing far, a loving heart for welcoming life, and a place always at your side. Day Six: God of our heavenly home, bless our home on earth. Let the spirit of Mary and Joseph rest at our table, shape our words and actions, and bring blessing to our children. Day Seven: God, our Father, give your fatherly spirit to those who are fathers now. Like Joseph, give them hearts of devoted love for their wives and children and strength for forgiveness and patience. Day Eight: Give shelter, O God, to those who need it, and bring together families divided. Give us enough to eat, and decent work to earn our bread. Care for us, O God. Day 9: Bless all families, O Lord, especially those in need. Remembering the life of your Son, we pray for the poor, for those who lack a good home, for those in exile. Grant them a protector like Joseph, O God.
A: Pray upon burial. Say a prayer each day until the house sells. Try a nine-day novena.

Q: If you still receive a call more than 31 days after joining the Registry, visit https://www.donotcall.gov/ to report the violation. Click continue and follow the prompts to report the telemarketer. You will need the following information: Your phone number Date you received the call Time you received the call (optional may penalize the telemarketer if before 8 am or after 9 pm) Whether the caller was a real person or not Whether it was a phone call or text message Your report is more likely to lead to penalties for the telemarketer if you can provide extra information. This includes the telephone number of the telemarketer, the name of the company, and a description of your interactions with them (in the "Comments" section). This is all optional. You may also provide your personal contact information. If you do this, the FTC may contact you with more questions to help their investigation. Instead of using the website, you may call the same number you used to add your number to the register. Follow the recorded prompts to file your complain, or skip through them using these steps: Call 1-888-382-1222 (or 1-866-290-4236 for TTY) Press 1 for English or 2 for Spanish Press 3 Press 1 Enter the requested information on your keypad when prompted. The Do Not Call Registry does not apply to charities, political organizations, and surveys. It also does not prevent calls from organizations you have done business with (for 18 months after your last transaction), or organizations you've sent an inquiry to (for 3 months). If you are receiving calls under one of these circumstances and would like them to stop, respond as follows: Ask the company not to call you again. Write down the date of this request. If the company calls again, you can report it as described above. Watch for any other violations you can report. This includes calling before 8 am or after 9 pm; failure to identify the organization and purpose of the call; lying about an offer; failure to provide a number to your caller ID; and prerecorded sales pitches. Debt collectors may still legally call you. You can report them for harassment, lying, threatening arrest, or other unfair practices, using the website https://www.consumer.ftc.gov/articles/0149-debt-collection. . Unfortunately, modern technology allows many telemarketers to hide their identity and avoid Do Not Call fines. If you continue to receive unwanted phone calls from a specific number, you may want to request a block from your phone service provider. This may or may not cost money depending on your provider's policies.
A: Report a violation online. Include optional information. File a complaint by phone instead. Identify legal calls. Block a phone call

Q: Personality, in psychological terms, describes individual characteristics that are unique to one person. These include ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. These combine to determine how the person responds to certain situations. Some examples of personality traits include: honest, moody, outgoing, friendly, or impulsive. There are many different theories to explain how personalities develop and why some people have certain characteristics and not others. Many of these theories are based on beliefs that personality is biologically or environmentally based (the "nature versus nurture" theory). Once a personality develops, the traits are usually stable across time. Allport's trait theory argues that personality traits are biologically determined, but formed by environmental experience. Eysenck's personality theory believes that personality can be understood by looking at a few dimensions of a person's entire behavior. Realize that all parts of your personality have value. Sometimes it can be difficult to recognize subtle personality traits, since strong characteristics are dominant. These subtle traits, such as predictability, generosity, and sympathy, are just as important as the prominent ones. Don't forget that more subdued personality traits are very strong in certain situations or roles. For example, empathy and conscientiousness are vital during major life events, like weddings or funerals. Realize that not everyone has a unique assortment of personality traits. Appreciating the differences in personality traits between people can benefit you when you are working on a team or are a manager. Valuing more subtle, but strong traits like empathy and generosity can help strengthen relationships and make working as a team easier. The most effective leaders and managers are able to appreciate, enhance, and effectively use different personality types. For example, if you notice that someone on your team is soft spoken, but very informed on a subject, have that person create detailed project materials or programs. This will put the person's skills to use without causing the person anxiety.
A:
Understand what personality describes. Recognize basic personality theory. Appreciate your unique personality traits. Value other people's personality traits.
