Summarize the following:
Challenge your employees, allowing them to try new things that are beyond their current workload. Trust them to get the job done right. For example, allow junior employees to work on committees alongside senior employees. If you don't allow your staff to grow, they may seek other opportunities. Letting employees try new things can lead to innovation. You can also use it as a strategy to increase the number of people on your staff who are able to complete certain tasks. It's normal for people to hit roadblocks, especially if you're assigning tasks that stretch your employees. If an employee seems to have hit a barrier that they can't cross, work with them to get the job done. Don't take over for your employee. Instead, provide them with assistance, whether it's from you or another employee who can mentor them. You can provide training sessions, guest speakers, or training videos. If you have the resources, you could even send your employees to a conference or seminar. Monitor your employees to see if they are struggling to meet their work demands, especially if you work in a rapidly changing industry. Delegating helps you get more work done and creates a well-trained workforce. Once a task has been assigned, trust that employee to complete it without you hovering over them. For example, allow problems to work their way up a hierarchical chain before they reach you. This will empower your employees to make more of the day-to-day decisions. Stepping in to help an employee who truly needs direction is not the same as micromanaging. Good bosses remember that their employees aren't just cogs in a machine. They have goals, too. Know what your employees are working toward, and help them get there by assigning tasks and trainings that best suit those goals while also supporting your organization. Invest in your employees, and they'll invest in you. Supporting your employee's goals can help you retain your best employees rather than see them walk away to another company.

summary: Assign tasks that help your employees stretch and grow. Help your employees when they're struggling with a task. Provide your employees with the training they need. Delegate responsibility to avoid micromanaging. Support the career goals of your employees.

Doing the things you love to do is a simple way to feel great about yourself and appear unique and interesting to other people. Even if your hobbies don't seem like something other people would think are cool, spending some time doing them will make you happier and generally a nicer person to be around. For example, if you love to knit or crochet, spend a few minutes every day working on your latest creation. If you love playing the guitar, practice learning a few new songs. Bring up your hobbies in conversation when it's natural, but don't force other people to talk about them. For example, if someone mentions wanting to learn a musical instrument, you could say, "I play the guitar and it's so fun. I think you could be really good!" Try a new sport, join the band, or run for student council. Even if you're not very good, trying new things will help you meet new people, and make people see you as a girl who's willing to open herself up. Knowing what's going on in the world and in your community will help you contribute to conversations in an informed and mature way and help you show off your smarts without bragging. Use an online news roundup or catch the nightly news a few times a week. You can also use a news app or follow outlets on social media. Know what's going on around your school and hometown too, so that when someone has a question about any current news, you have your own unique perspective to provide. Try not to leave your old friends behind once you've started expanding your friend circle. Besides losing loyal friends, you'll come off as a social climber--people will see you as someone who just wants shallow popularity and doesn't care about making real connections.

summary: Immerse yourself in your interests. Join new activities. Stay up-to-date on news. Remember the friends who have been there from the start.

The batting and cushion should be right up against the fabric. Try to place the seat so that it is about 3 to 4 inches (7.6 to 10.2cm) from the edges of the fabric, but don't worry about getting it perfect. You can adjust it before you start cutting. You may want to opt for a dark fabric to make stains less visible, or get a water-resistant fabric to protect your chair from spills. You will need this much fabric all the way around the cushion to cover it. Measure or find where to cut by wrapping the edges of the fabric up and over the seat edges. Then, mark the fabric and cut it. Grasp the fabric on 1 side of the seat and pull it up and over the edge of the seat. Locate the center of the seat edge, and place a staple in the center of the edge to secure the fabric. Repeat this for the other 3 sides of the seat. If the seat is round, then staple the upholstery to the underside of the seat in 4 equidistant locations, such as at 12 o'clock, 3 o'clock, 6 o'clock, and 9 o'clock. Choose 1 side of the seat to work on first. Grasp the fabric on the inside of the seat next to where you placed the first staple. Then, start stapling along the edge going out towards the corner of the seat, and then do the other side of the staple. However, do not staple the fabric at the corners of the seat yet. Repeat this on all sides of the seat. Once the fabric is secured along the sides, choose a corner and fold the fabric over at the corner to gather it. Then, fold the fabric again, and staple the fabric a couple of times at the center of the fold to hold it in place. Repeat this for all of the corners. Once the fabric is secured at the corners, cut the fabric on the inside of the chair back 1 inch (2.5cm) from the staples. This will prevent the excess fabric from hanging down. Be careful not to cut the fabric too close to the staples or it may come loose. To finish the seat, cut a piece of dust cover fabric to the same dimensions as the seat. You can place the fabric over the back of the seat and cut along the edges. Be careful not to cut the upholstery fabric as you cut out the dust cover fabric. Fold the dust cover fabric on 1 side of the chair and staple it into place. Staple the center of 1 side of the fabric first and then work out towards the edge. Repeat this all the way around the edges of the chair to secure the dust cover. Once you have finished securing the fabric, your reupholstered dining chair is complete! Use the screws that you saved to reattach the chair to its base. If you have other chairs to reupholster, repeat the process for each of these chairs.
summary: Place the cushion on the fabric with the right (outer) side facing down. Cut the fabric 3 to 4 inches (7.6 to 10.2cm) from the edges of the cushion. Staple the upholstery in the center of each of the 4 sides of the seat. Pull and staple the fabric working out towards the corner. Fold the fabric at the corners and staple in the center of the fold. Cut the excess fabric 1in (2.5cm) from the staples on each side. Cut the dust cover fabric to the same dimensions as the seat. Fold the dust cover fabric under and staple the edges to the seat. Reattach the seat to the chair base.
