Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Set a goal of getting one assignment done before the due date. Set goals for your other assignments. Limit distractions until you're finished working. Reward yourself for meeting your goals.

Answer: Beating procrastination takes a lot of work, and it's best to start with a small goal. Look through your planner for an assignment that's due in a few weeks. Set a personal goal to get that assignment completely finished at least three days before it's due. Write down the days you plan to work on the assignment in your planner, and stick to them. Once you've achieved the goal of getting one assignment done early, do it again! Keep setting new goals until all or of your assignments are scheduled to be done before they're due. Getting distracted with your phone, video games, or friends is a big part of why people procrastinate. If this is you, set a goal of being distracted as little as possible. Put your phone on silent and move it to another room, shut down any computer programs or apps you aren't using for work, and don't keep the TV on in the background. If you can, shut the door to the room you're in to prevent further distractions. Very few people can actually work effectively with music playing. If you like to listen to music while you work but find you aren't getting anything done, try going without it for an hour to see if your concentration improves. It's hard to get over procrastination, so make sure you reward yourself for a job well done! Rewards can be big or small. You can get yourself a cookie for working for an hour without looking at your phone, or you can splurge on a new outfit for handing in all of your assignments at least a day early.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Revisit your larger goals. Give yourself time before dating again. Model your behavior after someone else. Accept you will be sad for a while.

Answer: In the wake of loss, you often forget your bigger goals in life. You may think losing your first love means you've failed on the goal to find a loving relationship in life. However, look at your larger goals in terms of relationships. One failed relationship does not mean you've failed on your goals. Revisit what you want out of life. In addition to finding a loving partner, think of other goals. What kind of career or education do you want, for example? Remember that it's okay to take a break from relationships for a while. You don't have to focus on finding romance again right away. Give yourself time to heal and pursue other goals, then get back into dating when you're ready. One loss does not mean you have failed. In fact, the vast majority of people face a lot of loss and rejection on the path to larger goals. You do not need this one particular person to eventually reach your goals. Many people feel getting involved with someone else will help them forget their first love. While a new relationship can help distract you from thoughts of the current one, you're not likely to find relationship success this way. Instead of jumping into a new romance, take some time to reflect. Think about what you want out of a relationship. Think about the ways your need were and were not met. This will help you figure out how to find a more suitable partner in the future. Many people jump from romance to romance, hoping to find the right person. However, if you're not okay on your own, you will not be able to have a functional romance. You need to grieve your first love and figure out what you want for the future. When you're recovering from a recent breakup, you will probably be very emotionally vulnerable for a while. The feelings that you may develop for other people during this time will not always be rational. Be cautious about pursuing these feelings, since you may be at risk of being hurt or taken advantage of by someone who recognizes your vulnerability. Look for a friend, family member, or c-worker who has also suffered heartbreak, but moved on successfully. Try to model your behavior off of someone who does not need a relationship to feel fulfilled and happy. Find someone who does okay on their own. You want to lean on someone who does not need a relationship to feel fulfilled. Once you've found someone, think about how they cope with heartbreak. Look for the ways they stay independent and strong after a relationship ends. If you feel comfortable doing so, ask the person to be your mentor. Reach out to them for advice from time to time during your recovery process. However, take care not to become too needy or dependent on them. While you may want to move forward, it's important to acknowledge your feelings. Take steps to feel better, but accept sadness is a normal part of the process. Getting over a first love is hard, and even if you're doing everything right it will not happen over night. Do not beat yourself up for having bad days. This is normal and it will take time to move on. Don't panic if a reminder of your ex leaves you feeling bad. If you try to hard to avoid the bad feeling, you may make it worse. Instead, accept that you're going to feel sad for a bit. Let yourself cry if necessary. Get the bad feelings out so you can continue to move forward. To help you gain perspective, think about times when you've felt sad in the past, and remember that you eventually felt better. Remind yourself that the sadness will diminish, and that you will begin to have more good days again as time passes.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wait at least 5 minutes for the plastic to cool. Sand the welded joint down with 120-grit sandpaper. Finish the plastic with 180 and 320-grit sandpaper.

Answer: Let the plastic come back to room temperature before you continue working on it. Welded plastic doesn't take long to cool down, but you can wait as long as you please. Look for the welded plastic to turn solid. If you don't feel any heat coming off of it, you are ready to work on it. The best time to fix a weld is before it cools. A good weld looks relatively smooth and consistent. Add more of the welding rod or smooth out the melted plastic with your gun as needed. Set your welding gun aside when you're done. Remember to put it in a safe spot, such as in a heat-resistant holster, until it cools. Smooth out the rough ridges on the weld to make it look consistent with the rest of the plastic. Apply light pressure to the weld, rubbing the sandpaper back and forth across it. Try to get the weld to look level with the area around it, but be careful to avoid scratching the plastic around it. If you're looking for a speedier way to do this, use a sanding wheel on a rotary tool. Be careful, though, since plastic is relatively soft and easy to scratch. Switch to finer grits of sandpaper to neaten out the weld. Higher-grit sandpaper is finer and less abrasive, but it can still scratch the plastic if you're not careful. Rub the weld down like you did with the 120-grit sandpaper until it looks consistent and feels smooth to the touch. Always start with the lower-grit sandpaper. It is coarser, so it wears away more of the plastic. Save the higher-grit sandpaper for finishing.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Wipe your personal information through a "factory reset. Remove SD and SIM cards. Check your phone one last time prior to selling or recycling. Call or visit your cellular provider to arrange for new phone service.

Answer:
" Before getting rid of your phone, remove sensitive personal information like phone numbers, addresses, account numbers, passwords, voicemails, and text messages. Most phones let you clear this information using a "factory rest" or "hard reset." These options are typically located under your phone's "Settings" menu under the "Backup and Reset" section. Check your phone's owner's manual or device manufacturer website if you're having trouble finding the reset optionsdevices vary in their methods. The second method of information storage for phones is through SIM cards and external SD cards. If you're maintaining the same phone number, you can remove these cards and transfer them to your new phone (if the new device fits with your specific card specifications). If you're changing numbers, destroy them or erase their information via the "Settings" menu. SIM cards and SD cards can hold information like phone numbers, photos, and other sensitive data. If you're selling your phone to someone with the cards intact, be sure to wipe them. SIM cards are located underneath the battery and slide out of a small compartment. SD cards are thicker and are usually found on top of the SIM card pocket, or inserted into the side or top of your phone. After deleting your personal information, do one last check to make sure everything is clear. Look in the following areas: Phone book Voicemail Emails and text messages (sent and received) Folders (downloads, pictures, music) Search history Call or visit your provider to purchase a new phone. Once you have new phone, you will insert either a new or old SIM card connected to your account and effectively remove service from your old phone. Always get your new phone up and running before selling your old phone. If you have an online account, you can likely make arrangements to have a new phone (and a new SIM card if you're getting rid of your old one) shipped to you via your cellular provider's website.
