Article: Take a large pot and place a piece of cheese cloth or an old cloth on the bottom of the pan. Set your jar on top of this. Fill your pot with about 2 to 3 inches of water, making sure not to cover the jar. Place the water on the stove. Allow the water to warm up over low heat. Do not allow the water to boil. You just want the water to get warm. Keep the water temperature warm by leaving your pot on the heat. Allow the pot to sit for three to four hours. On occasion, remove the jar from the water and shake it to mix it. After the first three to four hours have passed, remove the pot from the heat. Cover the pot and jar with a cloth and allow it to sit covered for an addition one to three hours. Again, warm the jar in water over low heat. Allow it to sit for three to four hours, shaking the jar on occasion. After repeating the process, remove the pot from the heat. Cover your jar and pot and allow it to sit overnight. Place your pot and jar out of reach of children and pets. You do not want it disturbed overnight. Every day for three days, repeat the same process. Warm your water over low heat and allow the jar to sit in it. Shake it on occasion to mix the ingredients. Set it off the heat, covered, for one to three hours. Repeat the warning process once and let the jar and pot sit covered overnight. After three days have passed, the solid parts of the pine pitch will settle on the bottom of the jar. At this point, you can add beeswax to the mixture. Just pour it on top of the mixture and then heat everything up together. You should add one to two ounces of beeswax for every eight ounces of oil you used. Melt the beeswax into the oil by placing the jar in warm water again. Once melted, you can remove your salve from the heat and store it in tins and jars in a cool, dry part of your home.

Article: Set goals for how quickly employees should be able to complete their tasks, and offer incentives for meeting or exceeding those goals. This will help your employees understand what is expected of them, and it should encourage them to stay on task. Install software that will keep track of how much time your employees spend using apps and websites that aren't related to work. Monitor this usage to see if there are any areas where efficiency can be improved. Be transparent about the fact that you're keeping track of what your employees do on their computers. This will likely boost their productivity and will promote an atmosphere of honesty in your workplace. Save money by automating whatever you can. For instance, if you're still processing credit card payments by hand, you can save payroll hours by switching to a software like Quickbooks that will do it for you. You can save employees' time and office space by automating onboarding paperwork. Have new clients fill out paperwork online instead of in the office.

Set expectations for when tasks should be completed. Measure your employee's activity and productivity. Look for processes you can automate.
Article: Enlist friends, family, and classmates to help. Let them know the kind of job you're looking for so they can tell you when they see a position that might fit you. Start searching the job classifieds online. Craigslist, monster.com, indeed.com, and other regional sites (depending on where you live) are going to have a wide cross-section of jobs to which you could apply. If you are interested in particular companies, check their websites (usually the Human Resources section) to see if they have openings. If you don't have the qualifications they are looking for, don't apply. It's a waste of your time and their time. Most jobs now have so many applicants, anyone who is not completely what they are looking for will be disqualified. Make sure your letter properly reflects the job to which you are applying. You might get lucky and get your dream job right after you graduate from college, but most of us aren't so fortunate. Job searches often take a great deal of time and many applications before you find something. Applying to everything in your field for which you are qualified (even if you aren't sure it is a job you want) can help you gain valuable interviewing experience, even if you don't end up getting the job.
