Problem: Article: Personality, in psychological terms, describes individual characteristics that are unique to one person. These include ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. These combine to determine how the person responds to certain situations. Some examples of personality traits include: honest, moody, outgoing, friendly, or impulsive. There are many different theories to explain how personalities develop and why some people have certain characteristics and not others. Many of these theories are based on beliefs that personality is biologically or environmentally based (the "nature versus nurture" theory). Once a personality develops, the traits are usually stable across time. Allport's trait theory argues that personality traits are biologically determined, but formed by environmental experience. Eysenck's personality theory believes that personality can be understood by looking at a few dimensions of a person's entire behavior. Realize that all parts of your personality have value. Sometimes it can be difficult to recognize subtle personality traits, since strong characteristics are dominant. These subtle traits, such as predictability, generosity, and sympathy, are just as important as the prominent ones. Don't forget that more subdued personality traits are very strong in certain situations or roles. For example, empathy and conscientiousness are vital during major life events, like weddings or funerals. Realize that not everyone has a unique assortment of personality traits. Appreciating the differences in personality traits between people can benefit you when you are working on a team or are a manager. Valuing more subtle, but strong traits like empathy and generosity can help strengthen relationships and make working as a team easier. The most effective leaders and managers are able to appreciate, enhance, and effectively use different personality types. For example, if you notice that someone on your team is soft spoken, but very informed on a subject, have that person create detailed project materials or programs. This will put the person's skills to use without causing the person anxiety.
Summary: Understand what personality describes. Recognize basic personality theory. Appreciate your unique personality traits. Value other people's personality traits.

Problem: Article: If you want a classic hydrangea color, go for light blue, lavender, pale green, or pink. You could also select some green tissue paper if you want to make leaves. Cut your wire pieces at 6 to 8in (15 to 20cm) and bundle them together neatly. Wrap the bundle with floral tape about 2in (5.1cm) from the top of the wire. With hydrangeas, you shouldn't separate the petals too much, but try to separate the petals a bit and move the ends around after the glue has dried. This will make the flower appear fuller and more natural.
Summary: Choose several sheets of colored tissue paper for your flower. Cut and bundle 30 pieces of floral wire to make the flower's base. Fluff up the petals.

Problem: Article: An infestation of worms, such as tapeworms, can cause your cat to vomit. By deworming your cat, you will be able to either stop the vomiting from occurring, or at least rule out this as a cause. Deworm your cat more often once a month at minimum if they are allowed to hunt. If your cat is behind on their deworming, get them up to date. There are many dewormers available to purchase. Different products have different spectrums of effectiveness, thus deworming your cat is not a guarantee all the worms are gone. On occasions it is necessary for your vet to analyze a fecal specimen to identify any worms that have survived treatment. Use, selamectin (Revolution), for roundworms. Use, milbemycin (Interceptor), to remove many types of worms. Many cats have allergies, particularly to proteins. Your cat may have an intolerance to a component of their diet. Identify and remove any allergens from the cat's diet. Ask your vet about hypoallergenic diets. Use a hypoallergenic diet for at least eight weeks, to ensure the allergen has passed. Slowly introduce new foods, one at a time, and check for any that trigger vomiting. Some cats will vomit almost immediately after eating the allergen, but others may take hours to vomit. Generally, when the allergen reaches the stomach, irritation occurs, which results in vomiting. Cats are very sensitive to medications and many medications have the side-effect of causing vomiting. Take note of any medications you may have given your cat and see if they might be responsible for the vomiting. Your veterinarian will be able to tell you more about complications from medication. If a medication is the cause of the vomiting, ask your veterinarian for alternative. Cats are extremely sensitive to medications, home remedies should not be administered.
Summary:
Check when your cat was last dewormed. Be aware of potential allergens. Check if your cat has started any new medications.
