Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Make a list of daily chores. Create a cleaning schedule for weekly chores. Wash your linens weekly. Do laundry as soon as you have a full load. Keep a garbage can in your room and use it. Vacuum and dust weekly. Don't put off cleaning.

Answer: Keeping your room clean is about getting into a good routine, and there are some things you should be doing every day. Make a list of these daily chores, and post the list somewhere visible. Set aside about 10 minutes every day to address these cleaning tasks. Daily chores should include: Making the bed Putting away clothes Tidying up toys, papers, and other items Throwing out garbage On top of your daily chores, there are other cleaning tasks you should address regularly. Make a list of all those tasks, and make a schedule where you tackle a different weekly cleaning task each day of the week. Here's a sample list: Pull the blankets, top sheet, fitted sheet, pillow cases, and other linens from your bed. Throw them in the hamper and take them to the laundry room for washing. It's important to wash your linens weekly to control dust, dirt, and other allergens. It can be easy to just let the dirty laundry pile up for weeks. However, keeping your room clean means staying on top of dirty laundry. As soon as you have a full hamper or enough for a load of laundry, get to the laundry room and wash a load. Some people find it easier to follow a set schedule when it comes to doing laundry. For example, some people do their laundry in the beginning of each month. Garbage is one reason rooms get messy quickly. To stop this from happening, keep a garbage bin in your room, either beside the bed or desk, and make sure you always throw trash out rather than leaving it lying around. As soon as the garbage can is full, take it to the garage or shed until collection day. Use a damp microfiber cloth to dust all the surfaces in your room, including furniture, fixtures, fans, pictures, shelves, and tables. Vacuum the floors and baseboards to suck up dirt and dust. If you have pets or allergies, vacuum and dust two to three times a week. Ignoring your cleaning duties for just a few days can create an overwhelming list of chores. Before you know it, your room will be messy again and you'll have a major cleaning job on your hands. Once you create your daily and weekly cleaning schedules, keep to it to make sure your good cleaning habits sink in and stick. If you miss a day of cleaning for whatever reason, address the chores you missed as soon as possible the next day to prevent duties and messes from building up. Try to turn cleaning into a game if you really don't like it. Challenge yourself to clean your room as fast as possible and try to beat your previous best.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Determine who you are trying to hide your feelings from. Understand that some feelings should not be contained. Know when your feelings are a warning sign of something deeper.

Answer: Are you hiding them from just one friend? Other friends? Both? Everyone? This is going to determine how you proceed and to what degree you must hide your feelings. Hiding your feelings from everyone works only if the feelings are temporary and not likely to affect other aspects of your life. For instance, if you are angry at your parents for grounding you, but you know that you will get over it soon, you can choose to ignore and hide those feelings from everyone. But if you are angry at your parents for abusing you, this is not something you are likely to overcome without telling someone in authority, discussing it with friends, and eventually confronting your parents about it (when you are older, assuming you want to maintain a relationship with them). It is often helpful if you have a trusted friend you can confide in. This person may be able to help you sort through your complex emotions and understand your options. Someone who has no connection to the person you have feelings for is ideal. Sometimes, the healthiest choice for you is to express your feelings and deal with the fallout. Often, containing the way you feel causes those feelings to grow instead of recede, and eventually you have to let them out. Tell your friend if you have romantic feelings for them, if those feelings are making it difficult for you to be a good and supportive friend. Your friend has the right to know and if you have a strong enough friendship, you can work through the way you are feeling together. Most often, feelings of hurt or betrayal at the hands of someone you love should be dealt with. If someone has caused you pain, you deserve to let them know and give them the chance to make it right. If they care about you, they would want to know that you are hurting. If they don't care about you, then you deserve to know that, too, so that you can move on with your life. Containing or hiding your feelings is not the best answer if your feelings are an indication that you need to seek help. In those rare cases, it's important to recognize that your feelings are a symptom of something else. If you have an urge to hurt yourself or others, seek help immediately. Self-harm and/or violent tendencies can signal underlying disorders and you don't have to live like that! If you're in the United States, call 911 or the National Suicide Prevention Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255), or search online for your country's resources. If your feelings are inappropriate or illegal-- for example, sexual feelings for minors or an overwhelming urge to use illegal drugs-- please seek help from a licensed counselor or psychologist. There are treatment plans available for you. If you don't have a mental health care provider, your general practitioner can give you a recommendation. If you have ongoing feelings of despair, sadness, or like life does not have the same meaning it used to have, you may be experiencing depression. Seek help from a licensed mental health care provider, who can help you with a personalized treatment plan. Ask your general practitioner for a recommendation.

Answer:
This is a professional relationship that has very real implications for your financial health. It is important to select an accountant that you respect, that listens to your needs, and can answer your questions. How are they at communicating? Can you reach them when it's necessary? Do you feel comfortable sharing the intimate details of your finances with them? Obviously you want an accountant who knows his or her stuff, but the mark of a good professional is that they can translate that esoteric and complicated jargon into information that you can understand. Look for someone that you can build a long-term relationship with. Spend time looking over the websites of accountants that you have received referrals for and learn more about them. Consider your company needs based on the specialty of the accountant or firm. You may want to choose an accountant who specializes in small business issues, has a good deal of experience, and represents other companies in your industry. Industry experience gives an accountant a leg up on others. An accountant should be able to discuss your business's needs with you to render their best services. Do you prefer to work with an accountant who operates their own small firm, or would you rather work with a larger firm? Larger firms may be equipped to handle and offer different services than smaller firms. If you need help with a very specialized task, you will need to inquire whether the firm or individual is equipped and licensed to handle this task. Larger corporations or individuals with more complex financial situations may need more than one accountant working on their financials so you should look at and interview the larger firm and the team that they are working on. For smaller needs, keep in mind that many sole practitioners work from home it's fairly common for them to communicate remotely or even keep your books at their home office. They may also ask to meet you at a neutral site like a coffee shop. Don't be alarmed by this. Make sure to check any potential accountant's credentials. Afterwards, where the work takes place is not all that important. In fact, the lack of an office or suite can mean lower overhead costs and lower fees. It is important to find an accountant that is within your budget, but you may need to adjust your budget if your finances require more attention or are more complicated. If you are using an accounting firm, rates for services will vary depending on the size of the firm, the accountant's experience, and the firm's location. A junior account can initially handle your tax return preparation and write-up work. In this case, a CPA may review tax returns after the junior accountant prepares them. The firm partners will generally handle the consulting work. The greater the responsibility, the higher the rate per hour a professional charges will be.
