Breathable cotton socks help absorb some of the moisture from your feet, keeping your shoes a bit cleaner. If you're wearing flats or high heels, you can wear socks that won't show. They should be cut so that they only cover the back of your heel, the sides and bottom of your feet, and the front of your toes. Use running socks. They apply "moisture-wicking" technology which helps to keep your feet dry.

summary: Wear socks when possible.

There are lots of ways you can position yourself for this exercise, but standing up straight is a simple way to begin. Keep your back straight and your shoulders back so that you're not slumping, but avoid standing in a way that's uncomfortable. You can also do this exercise on your back, on your stomach, sitting down, or kneeling. Take a deep breath in, filling your lungs up with air. Go slowly, breathing in for roughly 3-5 seconds. If your nose is congested, breathe in slowly through your mouth. Exhale slowly as you pull your stomach muscles inward and hold until you are ready to inhale again. Then, relax your muscles. It's super important that you let out the air through your mouth instead of your nose, since this gives you more control over your breathing. Exhale slowly until there isn't any air left in your body. It may help you to try to exhale all of the air in roughly 3-5 seconds as well, helping time your breathing. You're able to get rid of more air in your body by exhaling through your mouth. You may also want to add a pelvic floor lift as you contract your abdominal muscles. While you are exhaling, suck in your stomach as far as it will go. To visualize what your stomach should look like, picture flattening your belly button against your backbone. If you can't suck your stomach in very far, that's okay! This step takes practice and will improve over time. If you're just learning this exercise, you may only be able to hold it for 5-10 seconds. It is important to continue breathing normally during the exercise, so don't hold your breath. Practicing this exercise regularly will help you increase the amount of time you can hold in your breath and stomach, eventually reaching as long as 60 seconds. Some people hold their breath the entire time they're holding the position, while others try to breathe normally. Do not relax your stomach muscles. Relax your muscles and take a nice breath in. Relax your stomach back to its original position, and allow it to expand as your lungs fill with air. Start over again with another stomach vacuum as you exhale and suck in your stomach. Make sure to breathe normally throughout this exercise. Remember to do this slowly and carefully, monitoring your breathing. People with more experience doing this exercise may do it 10 times before stopping, but start off with 5 times. Breathe in deeply and exhale deeply each time, counting the seconds of how long you're able to hold in your stomach. You may need to break up the stomach vacuums, doing 2 and then taking a 1- or 2-minute break before doing another 3.

summary: Start by standing up straight with your feet shoulder-width apart. Breathe in through your nose slowly. Exhale through your mouth so there's no air left in your lungs. Suck in your belly button as far as possible. Hold this position for roughly 20 seconds if you are going to continue inhales and exhales. Breathe in while releasing your stomach to repeat the process. Do this exercise 5 times before taking a break.

The best ideas are useless if you can't see a way to develop them into a fully-functioning business. When you've come up with several of them through brainstorming, assess your ideas using the following criteria: Are you the right person to build on this idea? Do you have the experience or technical know-how required to solve this problem better than your competitors? Will customers want this product or service? A product can be useful in theory, but not enough to make customers actually pay for it. Does this idea solve a problem that the customer has? Does it do so effectively and efficiently? Is the market ready? Consider your potential competitors and the barriers to entry that they may present. Also, think about whether there are enough prospective customers to keep your business afloat. Consider your operations. Can you make a business structure to build or provide this product or service? More importantly, can you gather the capital required to develop and build it? Be prepared for the challenges and opportunities that come with the small business ideas you are brainstorming. For example, think about the following: The money you will need to start. Brainstorm how much capital will be required to start your small business. Talk through the best ways to raise that money, whether through loans or investors. The logistical factors that are involved. List the operational aspects of your small business that will need attention, including staff, inventory, physical space for the business and marketing costs. Your timeline. Figure out how much time it will take to start the small business and turn it into a success. Your long-term plan. Figure out what needs to be done first, then the next steps after that. The best idea can be chosen according to a few important criteria. First, assess the cost. Can you come up with the money needed to pursue this idea? Then, consider your business's ability to create this product or service. Do you have the expertise, capability, and capacity needed? Finally, look for a competitive advantage in your ideas. Can you create this idea faster, better, or more cheaply than your competitors? Only once an idea passes these criteria should you move forward with it. Once you have completed your brainstorming and you have a vision for your small business, write it down. This will be an abbreviated business plan, which is simply a framework for your business with as much information as you currently have, rather than a full business plan. Start with a one-sentence description of your idea. What do you do and what will the effect of this product or service be? Then, write a short description of this product or service, using the information you have thus far. Write out what you know about your business organization, such as your management structure, distribution model, and pricing plan. Determine what it might cost to develop and produce your product or prepare to provide your service. Include all potential start-up costs. Then, include what you know about the market, from competitors and market share to trends and potential customer base. The only way to know if your business plan will work is to try it. Start asking around to your colleagues and connections to form a team to make your idea happen. Begin networking with people to the industry you are trying to enter. Come up with ways to finance your business. Most importantly, continually refine your idea or product until it is good enough to take to market.
summary: Assess your ideas. Define all the factors and details that need to be considered. Choose the best idea. Create a business plan. Get started.
