Give your time to people who really need it and help out in your community by working at a soup kitchen, library, homeless shelter, or another place where you can help people in need. Do this at least once a week and see how much of an impact you can have on the people around you and how much they can change your life for the better. You should volunteer because you really feel like making a difference, and you will see how much more gracious you become when you see all of the challenges that other people had to face to be where they are. You'll see that the people you are helping will be helping you out as much as you're helping them. Volunteering can make you feel more grateful for all of the advantages you have and will give you a fresh perspective. If you really want to be gracious, then you shouldn't just help out your friends when they really need you; you should do them favors just to say thank you, just because they've been good friends, or because you know they need a little bit of cheering up. Pick up lunch for your friends, help them do laundry, or give them a ride to their work when their car breaks down. Help your mom clean the floor. You'll be all the more gracious for it. If you have a good relationship, then you'll receive some favors in return, and you'll feel happy about the reciprocation. Truly gracious people know that they aren't perfect and are ready to admit their shortcomings. Whether you've hurt a friend, said something you didn't mean, or messed up at work, it's important to acknowledge the fact that you aren't perfect and make a goal to improve the next time around. It's far more important to admit to your flaws than to be in denial in order to save face and look tough. Sure, it won't be pleasant, but you'll be all the more gracious for giving the people around you the respect they deserve by admitting your mistakes and apologizing for them. When you do apologize, make sure that you are sincere and really mean it, so the people around you don't think you're apologizing just to get it over with. Sending "thank you" cards to people is another great way to show your gratitude. Thank your professors, colleagues, or other important people who have improved your life, and make it a habit. You don't even have to be so formal: thank your best friends, your significant other, or even your neighbors for helping you out during a difficult time. Try to send at least one "thank you" card each month and you'll be even more aware of all that you have to be thankful for. Doing this makes people feel important. Get good grades to show your teachers that you respect them and follow their good teaching rules. Follow your parent's advice on what to do, and hear their opinions on things. Doing things like this will leave you, and other people feeling great. They will really feel important that you are taking the time to learn from them.

summary: Volunteer. Do favors for other people. Admit your mistakes. Write "thank you" cards. Show people that you really care.

Summarize the following:
Carry it with you and have it filled with water at all times. Drink fat-free milk to help yourself meet your dairy requirements, or add calorie-free flavor packets to water. Switch from sugary sodas to diet soda. For instance, so that alcohol doesn't stimulate your appetite, consume it with a meal or with very low or low CD foods. For instance, certain friends or family members may encourage bad habits, or keeping candy in your desk at your office may trigger unnecessary grazing. Make plans with people that don't involve eating, and replace your candy stash with healthy Category 1 and 2 snacks.
summary: Purchase a sports bottle or a travel container. Develop strategies to eliminate sugary drinks. Decide how to manage alcohol calories so that they fit into your goals. Evaluate which situations trigger mindless eating.
