In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You will recall information more if you are engaged with it somehow. That is why it is important to know what moves or interests you. Try experimenting with creative ways of studying so that even if you have an exam on a subject you find boring you will succeed where regular cramming would fail. Some ways to make studying more interesting and engaging include: Make an idea map about the topic. Start by drawing a circle in the middle with the main topic written inside. Then draw circles that connect to this topic with the major factors of this topic. Continue branching off from the circles with new circles that go into greater detail. Discuss and debate the information with another person. Talking to someone else about what you're learning can be a great way to solidify the ideas in your head. Watch an interesting and visual film that deals with the information. Search online for an educational video about the topic you're learning about. Write a song about the topic. If you're into songwriting, this can be an effective way to greatly increase your engagement with the material. Songs stick in the mind a lot easier than book chapters. It's counter productive to stay up until the wee hours of the morning to tweak an essay due the next day, or to study "a bit more" information before an exam, because when the day arrives, you'll be exhausted and unable to perform at your best. At the same time, you also want to avoid procrastinating, and taking too many breaks, which will leave you with inadequate studying. Set yourself concrete amounts of studying and break time. This will prevent you from accidentally burning yourself out with too much non-stop focus, and keep you from falling into the temptation of procrastination. Experiment with different combinations of study and break time to find out what works best for you. For example, with some subjects you might study best in 30 minute increments with 10 minutes of break time, and others might work better with hour long increments and 15 minutes of break time. Sitting down and straining your eyes for long periods of time actually takes a toll on your body. Do yourself a favor and take a quick break to gently stretch your body, then go out and kick a soccer ball around, take the dog for a walk, or vacuum your room. You need to relax your mind and get your blood flowing. It's important to make a habit out of studying if you want to keep up with it. Start by studying for 10-15 mins at a time, and then work your way up to longer stretches of time. Find a quiet place to study with no distractions, preferably in a room other then one in which you watch TV, sleep, or do other distracting activities. Try to study around the same time each day. These kinds of habits will make studying easier to accomplish. Certain ways of studying are just better than others. Note memorization has been proven to be fairly ineffective for learning information.Instead, you should focus on trying to really understand the material, and one way to do that is to choose active ways of studying, rather than passive. All of the following study methods are better than just trying to memorize formulas or reread the same pages over and over: Test yourself with practice tests. Make and use flash cards. Summarize a chapter by writing the main points down in your own words. Try to identify links between different topics and concepts, and how they relate to each other.
Summary: Get engaged in whatever you're studying. Watch out for studying fatigue. Form a studying habit. Study smart, not hard.

Pop the hood of your car and check the positive and negative terminals of the battery. If there is any dirt or corrosion, it can cause a bad connection and a lack of power to the starter. If the terminals are dirty or corroded, you can disconnect the battery, clean the connections with a wire brush, and hook them up again. In newer cars, the battery terminals or even the entire battery may be covered with a plastic cap. Remove one or all of these caps to get a good look at the battery. But make sure nothing metal (tools, etc.) accidentally touches both terminals while you're working. Set your multimeter to its "DC" setting and its dial to 20 (to test from 0-20 volts). Place the red probe on the battery's positive (+) terminal, and the black probe on the negative (-) terminal. You'll get a reading above 12V if the battery is working properly. Whether or not the battery terminals look OK, there may be a problem with the wires that feed power to the starter and other components. While you're checking the voltage, make sure that the battery's earth strap is securely connected to the car's bodywork. This is necessary for the battery to operate properly. If you try to start the car and nothing happens, and the battery seems to be powering properly, then there is likely a connection problem with the solenoid. This device is a small cylinder usually attached to the top of the starter. Visually inspect it to make sure all of the wires running to it are connected properly. The solenoid won't work if its wires are hanging loose. Reconnect them and try starting the car again. If this doesn't help, the solenoid may not be powering up properly. Solenoid wires usually clip or bolt into place. If you're not sure where a loose wire goes or how it attaches, get a pro's help. Place one lead of the circuit tester (test lamp) to the feed terminal of the solenoid. Attach the other lead to bare bodywork metal. If the tester lights up, then the problem is with the solenoid or the starter itself, not the current getting to it. If the tester doesn't light up, then there is a bad connection and the wiring will need to be worked on. Another potential cause of this problem is a faulty ignition switch. Place one connector of a test lamp on the output of the solenoid and the other on the battery's ground (earth) terminal. The lamp should light. If not, you will need to take the starter/solenoid assembly off and bench test it.

One-sentence summary -- Visually inspect the battery terminals. Test the battery's voltage with a multimeter. Visually inspect the solenoid. Use a circuit tester to see if the current is getting to the solenoid. Check the solenoid output current.

Q: Many people experience stress from lack of sleep or poor sleep quality. Stress can also cause people to stay awake at night and ruin the natural sleep cycle. Learn to improve both your quantity and quality of sleep. Most adults require between 7.5 and 9 hours of sleep each night. Go to sleep and wake up at the same time every day. Try not to change your sleep cycle, even on the weekends when there is temptation to sleep in. Take a nap if you lose a few hours of sleep due to a late night. Spend time outside during the day. Get as much sunlight as possible and stay active. Avoid screens one to two hours before bed. Try not to be on the computer, watch TV, or be on your cell phone before going to sleep. Instead, read a book or get ready for the following day. A healthy diet can help you improve your sleep, energy, and mood. Examine your current diet and see where you can make some small changes. Drink water. Water helps keep the body free of toxins and boosts energy levels. Fill your water bottle regularly throughout your day. It is best to completely eliminate caffeine, alcohol, and simple sugars. If going cold turkey is difficult, strive to significantly reduce these stress inducing substances in your diet. Prepare your own meals. Focus on buying whole foods like fresh fruits, vegetables, proteins, and whole grains. Health food stores tend to carry foods with fewer additives and chemicals, but remember to read the packaging. Even packaged foods that appear to be healthy are sometimes filled with added sugars and unhealthy fats. Kombucha tea and chamomile tea may also be helpful for people under stress. Exercise is a known way to blow off steam and improve your mood. Regular exercise will also improve your physical health. You don't need to exhaust yourself. Choose something that works for you. Anything from yoga to a game of tennis can help with stress relief.
A: Get a good night's rest. Maintain a healthy diet. Exercise.
