This tool is designed specifically for the task, and will enable you to do the job in the least time with minimum effort. There are a few things you need to consider, however, before starting. Check the soil consistency. Rocky soils are difficult to use post hole diggers in, since a relatively small stone will prevent the cutting edge of the diggers from penetrating the soil. You can use a steel rock bar to loosen the rocks before using the post hole digger. Very loose, sandy, and dry soils, or otherwise stubborn ground, are hard to remove from the hole, as the clamping action of the jaws is not as effective on these non-cohesive materials. If you have time, start the holes one day, fill them with water and come back to remove the much softened soil the next day. Measure and mark the location of each fence post. Post hole diggers have a maximum effective depth of about 3/4 of their handle length, so a five foot pair will dig about 3 1/2 half deep. Very hard earth like clay is extremely difficult to dig with a manual pair of post hole diggers. A rock bar may work on dry clay. If it is a single hole for a project like installing a flagpole, you can eyeball the location, but for fences and other projects requiring multiple holes, you may want to lay out the locations of you holes more accurately. Using stakes and a string line to guide you, and a long measuring tape to establish your spacing will help for this purpose. Plant the stakes on either end of the line that you want to dig along. Tie the string to one stake, pull taut, and tie to the other stake. The average spacing for posts is eight feet (2.4 m), though depending upon the structure you could space them further apart. For fencing around a field on private property, this may not be an issue, since the property owner should be aware of any utility right of ways on his land, but if there is any doubt, call your local utility locating service to be sure. Be sure to call your local utilities at least three days prior to digging to have your utility lines located. Depending upon your location, it may be illegal to begin digging without requesting a utility survey.

Summary: Obtain a pair of post hole diggers. Select the location for the hole you will dig. Determine if there is any possibility of underground utilities being in the area you are digging.

You may feel justified in expecting your mother to reach out to you, but don't be afraid to initiate contact. Your mother may want to reach out to you but not know how, or she may share similar feelings of fearing rejection. If you keep waiting for her to make the first move, don't be surprised if your relationship remains stuck. Before you decide to reach out, decide what you want to discuss first, and how you want to discuss it. Come in with a mindset of problem-solving, not accusation. Instead of internalizing anger and fear, realize that you don't have to react. Ask yourself, "What can I do to de-escalate this situation?" It's not your responsibility to manage her emotions, nor is it your job to make her anger or frustration your problem. Acknowledge her emotions without taking them on by simply saying, "I can tell that you are upset." If your mother tries to corner you into making decisions or make you feel like you don't have a choice, call the bluff. Remember that you always have choices, regardless of how powerless someone makes you feel. When you reach your point of no return, be firm on not giving in. Verbalize to your mother that you do have choices, and they are up to you to make. Thank her for her perspective, but feel free to make your own choice. Don't hold onto resentment. Forgiveness doesn't mean excusing her behavior, pretending a situation didn't happen, or letting her 'off the hook'. Forgiveness allows you to free yourself from holding on to any resentment or negative feelings toward your mother. And the sooner you are able to forgive, the faster you can begin repairing the damage.

Summary: Make the first move. Redirect the fear. Make choices. Forgive.

The thought of going up to your crush to say hello might be making you nervous. To help yourself find the courage to go up to them, remind yourself that your crush is a person just like you are, and talking to them shouldn't be any different than talking to anyone else. Put on a smile, take a deep breath, and focus on showing confidence. Count to three if you notice yourself hesitating to talk to your crush. Once you get to three, go right up to them! If you see your crush while you're walking somewhere and don't have time for a real conversation, say hello and then their name so they know you're talking to them. Smile as you say hello and try to make eye contact, showing that you're friendly and would like to talk some other time. For example, if you see your crush as you're walking to your seat, say, "Hey, Adam!" with a smile and keep walking. Speak loudly and clear enough so that your crush hears you. Not only does making eye contact make you look more confident, but it also helps spark a connection between the two of you. Going up to your crush to say hello can be nerve-racking, but if you see a moment when they're waiting outside of class or chatting with 1 or 2 people, go up to them! There's no need to overthink the timing, and being proactive about it will make you feel more confident and in control. Avoid going up to them if they're talking on the phone. If you don't mind talking to them when they're with their friends, great! Otherwise, wait for them to be alone, like when they're at their locker or waiting for a class to start. This puts less pressure on you and makes the conversation flow more naturally. If you just want to say a quick, "Hi, how are you?" instead of a longer conversation, it's okay to talk to them when they're around others. You might say something like, "Hi Jack, I wanted to ask you how your soccer game went last weekend! Did you guys win?" If the conversation goes well or you just want to continue talking to them, ask for their phone number if you don't already have it. You could also add them on social media like Instagram or Snapchat to talk to them there too. After talking about interesting books, you might say, "What's your phone number? I'll text you the names of a few other books I think you might like."
Summary: Gather the courage to talk to your crush by giving yourself a pep talk. Give a quick hello when you pass them in the hallways. Go up to your crush when they're free to talk to avoid interrupting them. Wait until they're alone to talk to them in more depth. Ask them for their social media handle or phone number.
