Article: If your personal life is happy, then chances are your professional life will follow suit. Make sure to spend plenty of time with family and friends so that it doesn't affect your ability to focus at work. Try to stick to a routine with work and home life. If you can, arrive at work and leave at the same time every day. Make sure to account for overtime work with some extra time to yourself for a long lunch or a walk. Let the truism "if you love what you do, you will never work a day in your life" guide you. You can't be truly successful or find balance in your work and personal lives unless you are passionate about your profession. Your job will feel like chore if you don't love it. This will make you more likely to be sloppy in your assignments and not take any initiative that would help you succeed. Changing your professional or personal course to put yourself on the path to success and happiness requires taking some risk. However, this doesn't mean making reckless decisions, rather that you should take a calculated risk. Take a calculated risk, not one that may derail your professional or personal life. You can't be well-rounded or balanced if you don't take care of your physical and mental health. Learn to focus on yourself and have a "me party." Exercise is an excellent way to relieve stress, and increase endorphins and energy. Taking a short walk twice a day will refresh your body and mind and can help you avoid burnout. For example, a 3-mile run will give you time to work out personal or professional problems if you need to while providing your body with needed exercise to maintain your health. In a world where you are easily contacted by cell phones, email, and social media, having unplugged alone time is vital to maintaining your health by minimizing how much input you need to process on a daily basis. For example, you can turn off all electronics at 10pm so that you have an hour or two all to yourself or with your family. Having time away from your job for everything from ten minutes a day to a full vacation is important to your success as well. Time away refreshes you, helps you avoid burnout, and can reset you on your path to success. Take breaks during the day. They give your brain and body a chance to relax and refresh. Schedule annual vacations to further help you refresh. While a ten-minute walk or a run will help you decompress throughout a workday, an annual vacation where you completely unplug from your job will refresh your body and mind. If you don't get paid vacations, then take weekend trips instead.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Focus on your life, not your job. Be passionate about what you do. Don't be afraid to take risks. Take care of your physical and mental health. Take breaks and vacations.
Article: To avoid getting overwhelmed by your meeting with the celebrity, you may want to sit down and plan out a few questions for them. Try to choose one main question you would like to ask the celebrity and/or one thought you would like to share with them. This will allow you to gather your thoughts and be prepared for the meet and greet. You may ask a simple question, like, "What inspired you to make this film/create this album/write this book?" Or, you may ask a more specific question that may be obscure to show the celebrity that you are a true fan. For example, you may ask, "Why do you always end your songs with two claps?" or "How did it feel to work with Mia Farrow in Deadweight?" Often, more obscure questions will impress the celebrity and help you stand out from the crowd of fans. Take a deep breath once it is your turn to speak to the celebrity. Greet them with a "hello" or "hi", as well as a handshake or a wave, if they initiate it. Smile and speak calmly to them, maintaining eye contact. Try to speak slowly and clearly, just like you would speak to a friend or someone you admire. Most meet and greets allow for only a few minutes with the celebrity. Once you greet the celebrity, you may transition quickly into a compliment about the celebrity's work. You may also ask your one question at this point, initiating conversation with the celebrity. Try to stick to one to two questions or compliments, as you do not want to take up too much of the celebrity's time. This is especially important if you are in front of a long line of fans and do not want to hog time with the celebrity. If the celebrity responds to your questions, be respectful and listen to their answers without interruption. Make sure you say "please" and "thank you" when appropriate, as this will show the celebrity you are treating them like a fellow human being who happens to be famous. Plus, it is just polite and good manners. You should bring an item you would like to be autographed, such as a picture of the celebrity or a copy of their work. Only ask for an autograph if it is permitted at the meet and greet. If there is a sign that clearly states no autographs, do not request one as this could seem rude or presumptuous. Consider asking for the celebrity's autograph at the end of the meeting as a way to close out your meet and greet with them. Make sure you bring a pen with you and have the item ready so you can easily hand it to the celebrity to sign.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Plan out your questions or thoughts in advance. Speak calmly and clearly to the celebrity. Compliment the celebrity's work. Request an autograph, if allowed.
Article: Ask her how she would like your relationship to change. She might have some great ideas in addition to the ones you've already considered. Make sure that you have this conversation in private and with plenty of time to talk. Find something that you both enjoy doing and make time to do it with her. Sometimes it's hard to find common interests, and it might be fun for you to try something new together and see if you both like it (or both hate it). Go to a movie Watch TV series Learn how to kayak Take a cooking class together Explore a new neighborhood Try a new restaurant A lot of siblings find that short texts and Facebook posts help keep them close, rather than lots of long conversations. Once you and your sister have established a strong relationship, keep it up through shorter, casual contact with long conversations every so often.

Tell her you want to make time to be a better sister. Do activities together. Keep in touch.
