Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Scan the mirror for stains.

Answer: If it is a bathroom mirror, you may see a lot of toothpaste, hairspray and other stains from cosmetics. If it is a hallway mirror, there could be a lot of dust or dirt that has accumulated in certain areas. Take note of all the stains, since you will need to remove them first in order to avoid streaking.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Work in a well-ventilated area. Lay down a tarp under the area you'll be working in. Wear protective gear while you're working with the stain stripper.

Answer: Stain strippers contain harsh chemicals that are dangerous to use in closed-off spaces. Work outside if possible. If you can't work outside, work in a garage with the garage door open, or open all the windows in the room you'll be working in. Set up a box fan near a window to help blow fumes out of the room. Stain stripper can damage the floor if it gets on it. If you don't have a tarp, lay down newspaper or an old sheet instead. Put on safety goggles and chemical-resistant gloves. Wear a long sleeve shirt, long pants, and closed-toe shoes. You don't want any stain stripper getting on your skin. Read the manufacturer's instructions on your stain stripper for recommendations on which chemical-resistant gloves you should use. Then, visit your local hardware store or shop online for gloves made out of the recommended material.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Face reality. Consider your options carefully. Get advice from wise people. Let your conscience be your guide. Don't back down (unless you should).

Answer: Don't attempt to evade difficult situations by running away or pretending they aren't happening. The ability face reality head-on will help you make practical decisions that will ultimately lead to positive change. If you bury your head in the sand, your problems will just keep festering. Resist the temptation to ignore your problems by indulging in escapist behaviors. Using drugs and alcohol, watching too much TV, staying up all night online, gambling and other similar behaviors will make it harder to clearly see reality. With every situation you encounter, you have a choice to make. It's up to you to decide how you'll react and what actions you should take. Sometimes the right choice is obvious, and other times right and wrong seem impossible to distinguish from one another. Taking the time to think things through clearly will help you choose correctly. Let's say you get a piece of bad news: you weren't admitted into the program you applied for. What are the possible paths you can take from here? Is there a wrong way to react? What's the right way? It's not weak to admit you could use some advice. Other people's opinions can be valuable when you're faced with a situation that you haven't encountered before. Ask people you trust what they would do in your position. Remember, though, that only you can ultimately determine the best course. Other people's opinions are secondary to your own values. Trusted friends and family members are good people to confide in when you have a big decision to make. Take their advice with a grain of salt, though, since people who know you, even if they love you very much, might have their own personal stake in the decision you make. For example, your mom would prefer you didn't move to a different town, her advice about what college you should choose might be loaded with her emotions. Going to a therapist or counselor is a great idea when you feel a professional opinion could be useful. That little inner voice telling you what choice to make will become louder and stronger as you gain experience and wisdom. After examining a situation from all angles and getting a few outside opinions, it's time to act on your values. Being tough means acting with honor and courage, no matter how scary it might be to do so. Once you've made your decision, follow through with it and stay true to your values. The tough decision to make is often the least popular, so there will be times when it seems like other people are against you. Stay strong when others try to tear you down for doing what you believe is right. There are exceptions to this rule - like when the action you took was actually wrong. Don't automatically get defensive if you're accused of being in the wrong. Think clearly about what happened and decide if you're still on board with your original actions. If you realize that it would have been better to do something different, admit it.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Do at least 30 or 40 minutes of aerobic exercise 5 or 6 days a week. Choose a form of aerobic exercise you enjoy so you'll stick with it. Add strength training to your workout routine 3 times a week. Incorporate high-intensity interval training (HIIT). Work your core Incorporate exercise throughout the day

Answer:
Go for a jog, run, or brisk walk to burn calories and fat every day for the next 2 weeks. Aerobic exercise also releases endorphins, which will leave you feeling happier and more confident after a good sweat session. Feeling good will help you get through these 2 weeks since you'll be cutting calories and moving a lot moreit can be tiresome but don't give up! Always talk to your doctor before starting any new exercise program. If you are new to exercise, start slow and easy until you can work your way up to 30 or 40 minutes. For instance, start by jogging for 15 minutes and walking for the remaining 15 minutes. Then, after the first week, jog for the full 30 minutes, upping your speed and intensity. Picking something you enjoy is going to make the next 2 weeks a lot easier. Swimming, kickboxing, dancing, and various sports will count toward your daily 30 minutes (minimum) of aerobic exercise. Whatever activity you choose, make sure to get your heart pumping for at least 20 to 30 minutes so you work up a good sweat. Swimming is a great low-impact option that won't hurt your joints. Take a dance class with friends or family members to up the fun factor! Lifting weights will build lean muscle, which is necessary to rev your metabolism and burn fat throughout the day. A combination of strength training and aerobic exercise is more effective to lose weight faster than just doing one or the other. Strength training doesn't count toward the daily minimum of 30 minutes of aerobic activity. If you don't know the proper form for dumbbell exercises, use the weight machines. If you plan to weigh yourself every few days, keep in mind that muscle weighs more than fat. But don't worry, those muscles will help you blast more belly fat for the next 2 weeks! Start with simple and well-known exercises like bicep curls, push-ups, pull-ups, tricep curls, lateral raises, and chest presses. Do 3 sets of 8 to 10 reps. You should use enough weight so you can maintain good form for the full set but also need to rest between sets. HIIT elevates your heart rate and keeps your muscles guessing. It's also more effective at blasting more calories in a shorter period of time (as opposed to low intensity training with little to no variations). Work in HIIT at least 3 or 4 times a week (or you can do shorter HIIT routines every day in addition to aerobic exercise). For example, perform 30 to 60 second sprints while jogging. Recover with 2 to 4 minutes of jogging at a moderate pace before the next burst. Even walking can be adjusted for an HIIT workout by changing your speed and adding hills. Walking is a great alternative if you have bad knees or other joint problems. Try this 20 minute treadmill routine: 3 minute warmup at 5% incline 3 minute brisk walk at 7% incline 2 minute brisk walk at 12% incline 2 minute moderate walk at 7% incline 2 minute brisk walk at 12% incline 2 minute slow to moderate walk at 15% incline 1 minute moderate walk at 10% incline 2 minute brisk walk at 12% incline 3 minute cool down at 5% incline every day to increase strength, toning, and balance. Working your core will help build and tone your abdominal and back muscles. Keep in mind that there's no such thing as "spot" training, but the more you engage your core, the more lean muscle you'll build, and the more calories you'll burn throughout the day. As a plus, your posture will improve after just a week of core training (making you look leaner)! Try some common yoga moves like planks, warrior twists, and cobras to stretch and tone your core. . Make an effort to take the stairs or walk around more for the next 2 weeks. Take a 10 to 20 minute walk after eating to help your body digest, burn extra calories, and keep your metabolism running. Get off the bus or subway a few stops early and walk the rest of the way. Run errands on foot if you live close to your regular shops. If possible, walk or bike to work. Climb the stairs instead of using the elevator or escalator.
