Problem: Article: Encourage others to talk about themselves. Shine the spotlight on them. Give them your full attention and appreciation by focusing only on them. When we let people talk about themselves, it triggers pleasure responses in their brain. Put your stuff away. Don't check your phone. Don't glance at your monitor. Don't focus on anything else, even for a moment. Ask them about positive things in their life. When they reply, ask them how they are feeling about life in general. Since you've already gotten a positive answer to the first question, you are more likely to get a positive answer to the second one, leading to a positive overall experience with you. Become memorable and attractive through the way you let them express themselves to you. The words you use can have a huge impact on how you come across to others. Avoid being negative as much as possible. Prioritize positive words over negative ones. We all associate happy, enthusiastic, and fulfilled people with attractiveness. Say things like: "I believe in you." These four short words can have a huge impact on how people feel both about themselves and about you. "How can I help?" Offering assistance doesn't mean you have to go out of your way to help some, but often we cannot accomplish things alone. Saying this will show someone you are an ally. "Here's what's happening." No one wants to be left out. If you make an effort to include everyone, they will associate a positive connection with you. Share the information you have to become more likable. You can also use this phrase to demonstrate decisiveness in a positive way. "I'll find out." "You're welcome." Somewhere down the road we stopped saying, "You're welcome" and started saying "yep," and "no problem." Saying the former establishes that you have done a worthwhile favor, whereas the latter shows that what you have done was insignificant. Use the former to show a person how much you care. Laugh easily. Playfulness, as a personality trait can bring a bunch of positivity to your life and the lives of others. Not only can playfulness help reduce stress levels, but it will also help you appear more confident and comfortable. Take care to tease lightly and play close attention to the other people around you. No matter what your intentions, playfulness isn't attractive if you end up hurting someone's feelings. There is a time and place for playfulness. If you are in a professional environment, where playfulness is generally not encouraged, save it for when you leave work. However, you can still exercise kindness and warmth. Slowing down your speech can actually make you more interesting to others. This gives them a chance to digest what you are saying. Speaking slower also demonstrates confidences and a relaxed state, while speaking quickly might make you look overly excited, eager, or nervous. Especially if you are nervous, practice speaking slow. This will help you remain calm, and maintain control. You are also less likely to stumble over your words if you speak slowly.
Summary: Listen first. Respond with questions. Select your words carefully. Be playful. Speak slower.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can draw the design directly onto the paper itself, or you can find an image on the computer and print it out instead. Make sure that the lines are dark, otherwise they won't be visible behind the parchment paper. If you want to make a card, draw a straight line down the middle of the page. Place your outside design on the left, and the inside design on the right. Place the template onto a flat surface and tape down the edges. Set the parchment paper on top, and tape down the edges as well. If you're having trouble seeing the lines, remove the parchment paper, and trace over them with a black pen. Replace the parchment paper when you are done. Use scrapbooking parchment paper or vellum, not baking parchment paper. This is great for borders and frames. You can also use the pencil to sketch out other guidelines as well that are not part of the original outline. Periodically check your work by sliding a sheet of black paper under the template. If you are making a card, remember to trace the center, dividing line. If you are making a card, do the outside design on the left first, then flip the card over and do the inside design on the right. Not every line on your design needs to be embossed; some lines can be flat and colored. You can use any color of pen you want, as long as it fits your design and desired color scheme. Black will look the best, however. Check your progress by slipping a blank sheet of white paper under the parchment paper. Once again, if you are making a card, do the outside design first, then flip the card over and do the inside design. Peel off the tape first, then turn the parchment paper over. Rub the back with a drier sheet. This will prepare the parchment paper for embossing. If you are making a card, wipe the drier sheet over the back of each traced side.

SUMMARY: Create a template on a sheet of paper. Tape a sheet of parchment paper over your template. Trace any lines you want embossed with a white colored pencil. Trace over any desired outlines with a liner pen. Flip the parchment paper over and wipe the back with a drier sheet.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: A scaffold whorl is a set of 4 lateral branches that extend from the tree. This shape of branches provides structure and keeps the tree's shape balanced. In order to promote healthy growth in your tree, you must promote it's growth in this way. However, do not attempt this too early or you may hurt your young cherry tree. After a year has passed, you can take the steps to create a scaffold whorl. Find four to five branches that will form your scaffold whorl. Branches growing at a 45 to 60-degree angle to the cherry tree make the best branches. Find the healthiest looking branches that are growing from the main tree and use them to create your scaffold whorl. The lowest branch should be branch about 18 inches (45.7cm) above the ground. Make angled cuts 14 inch (0.6cm) above the buds on the four branches that you chose earlier. New growth will emerge where you make the cuts. Dispose of the cut branches in the waste bin. Look for two well-spaced, strong secondary branches to keep on each of the 4-5 branches that you just cut. Cut back the remaining branches flush with the base of the branch, leaving the two strongest branches remaining on each piece of your scaffold whorl. This will help the tree focus its energy on the branches that remain and produce a greater concentration of fruit. Make clean cuts flush against the main tree, so that only the branches that are part of the scaffold whorl remain. Any leftover branches excluding the main branches should be cut off. After another season of growth, the tree will be taller with more branches. Assess the tree and determine which branches you want to keep to create a second scaffold whorl about two feet higher than the first one. Choose branches that don't fall directly over the older primary branches. Create a scaffolded shape so that sunlight can reach all of the branches of the tree.
Summary:
Wait a year before pruning a scaffold. Choose 4-5 branches spaced 8 inches (20.32 cm) apart. Cut each of the four to five branches back to 24 inches (61.0cm). Keep two secondary branches on each branch on your scaffold whorl . Prune away the remaining branches. Create a second scaffold whorl the following winter.
