Article: Success is contagious. Make friends with people you admire. Join teams with people who have achieved things you want to achieve. If you meet someone whose success you admire, or are jealous of, swallow your jealousy and welcome their company. It may be tempting to hang out with people who make you look good, but you'll lose sight of your goals if the bar is set low everywhere you look. Besides, you'll enjoy your friendship more with people you truly admire. Compete with yourself as well as with others. When you have achieved a goal, set your next goal higher. For instance, if you got all A's and B's one semester, set the goal to get all A's the semester that follows. Take time to celebrate each goal as you achieve it, but avoid complacency. If you notice yourself feeling jealous or unsuccessful, that's a sign that you're ready to set a new goal. Identify the cause of the negative feeling, and set a goal that will catapult you beyond it. For instance, if you are jealous of your neighbor's new car, set goals for earning or saving more money so that you can buy a car you like. You may end up changing your mind about the car once you have achieved your goal. The satisfaction you get from setting a goal and achieving it will be greater than any satisfaction you can get from showing up someone else.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Surround yourself with winners. Outdo yourself. Turn negative feelings into motivation.
Article: Texting doesn't vary that much depending on the phone, but there can be some slight differences, especially between older cell phones and smart phones. For example, you might see "messaging" on a phone's menu to start the texting process. Or you might see "Send SMS" instead. It means the same thing. Newer smart phones will offer keyboards that are touch screens. You will use this to type the message. On older phones, you will need to use a keyboard built into the phone itself, that doubles as the buttons you press with numbers to call people. Be aware that you may have to pay to receive or send texts. Some cell phone plans have unlimited texting built into the plan. If you're going to be texting a lot, this might be a better idea. Some plans will only let you send a certain number of texts per month before incurring overcharges, though. If you don't have an unlimited plan, you could be charged something like 20 cents per text, so make sure you research the costs beforehand.

Research your own phone's manual. Check the cost with your phone service provider.
Article: You can strike the nose of your attacker if they are in front of you or behind you, but the movement you use will vary depending on your starting position. If your attacker is in front of you, you will need to move in a forward direction. If your attacker is behind you, you will need to attack as you turn to face them. When standing face-to-face with your attacker, open your hand and strike straight forward, hitting the base of the nose and shoving it back. Throw your weight into the attack in order to apply the most force. This move causes your attacker's head to snap back, pinching the nerves of the upper spinal column and, if done with enough force, causing the opponent to black out. If the attacker is behind you, bend and lift your arm so that your elbow points toward the attacker's face. Rotate your upper body enough to throw your elbow into the side of the attacker's nose. The center side of the nose, on either side, is another pressure point of the body. If you strike hard enough, you can cause the nose to break and the attacker to fall unconscious.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Assess the best way to strike depending on your position. Strike with the heel of your palm from the front. Strike with your elbow if the attacker is behind you.
