Write a list of your qualities and your achieved goals. Add detail, such as times that you surprised yourself, or challenges you were especially proud of getting through. List every time you feel you won, and every reason that was significant to you. Soon, you'll have written a portrait of yourself as a winner. If you want to win, you must avoid becoming anxious and obsessive about winning. Stay in the moment by paying attention to your thoughts, senses, and feelings without interpretation or judgement. If you get stressed, try paying attention to your senses. Ask yourself "what am I smelling, how am I moving, what am I hearing and seeing?" To feel like a winner, eat regular meals of a variety of foods. Rather than taking vitamin supplements, eat many different kinds of fruits, vegetables, and grains. Don't skip carbohydrates or protein, but don't go crazy on them either. Carbs give you energy, and protein helps your muscles grow and repair. Cut back on sugar and soda. One sugary drink, dessert, or snack a day is enough. Dress for the job you want. Wear clean clothing that lets everyone know you take yourself seriously. You don't have to buy expensive clothing, or even spend a lot of time getting dressed. Instead, wear clothing that is the right size, not too worn out, and laundered. Shower often, but use shampoo no more than three times a week. Wake up feeling like a winner after a good night's sleep. If you are an adult, get 7-8 hours of uninterrupted sleep each night. If you are a teenager or child, get 9-11 hours. Sleep deprivation can seriously slow you down, affecting your immune resistance, your weight, and your mental health.

Veterinarians are taught to consider the quality of life of their patients when considering euthanasia. This means that they should present to you all treatment options that they think could help your pet before suggesting euthanasia. Ask your veterinarian any questions you have, such as what the process will entail and what makes them sure that euthanasia is the right choice. If the veterinarian does not believe that there is a reasonable treatment that could help the pet then they will suggest euthanasia as a compassionate and caring option. Ask questions such as "Will I be allowed in the room with Rufus?" "Will he feel pain?" "How long will the process take?" A good vet will take the time to explain the process to you. Take time to consider your options. Deciding to euthanize your dog is a very difficult decision that requires some contemplation. Think about your dog, whether they are in pain, and whether they have any quality of life left. Use these questions to think and debate your options. In some cases you will not have very much time to debate your options. If your dog is in an emergency situation you may be required to make the decision quickly. Discuss the situation with those closest to you. Ask them if they have any experience with euthanasia and how they dealt with it. They can help console you and, in some cases, they can help you to make the hard decision to euthanize your dog. Small children in your family should be told that the pet will be gone soon. How you do this is up to you but it should take the children's feelings about the pet into consideration. You can try saying, "Sam hasn't been feeling well for a while. We don't want him to be in pain, so the vet is going to give him medicine that will ease his pain. Sam will die, but that is what is best for him." After you have decided to euthanize your dog you should spend some quality time with it. Take it to its favorite places or do activities that it loves if you can. This is a time to make some wonderful memories with your pet before you have to say goodbye to it. Quality time with a pet that is ill could just mean quiet times together. Pet your dog softly and keep it nice and warm. Feed it food it loves and pamper it in any way that you can.

Place the coated pieces on a plate. The fryer should be suitable for frying chicken. Heat on the stove at a medium setting. Watch to see that it does not get too hot and "spit". To test to see if the oil is hot, put your hands under the water faucet then flick the water from your fingers over the oil. If it sizzles, you know the oil is hot enough to add the chicken to fry. Serve with coleslaw, salad or steamed vegetables of choice. If you're going on a picnic, allow the fried chicken to cool down and pack in its own container, along with other food items ready for the outing.
