Problem: How to get inspired
Surround yourself with things that energize you.
Classical music is good for inspiration because it's so complex. It can put you in a better emotional state for absorbing information and help you relax.

Answer: When you're more relaxed and in a better frame of mind for learning, you're more receptive to new ideas that might be the perfect inspiration for the problem you're working on. If classical music isn't your style, pick another style more to your liking.

Problem: How to ash your cigarette
Watch where you ash.
Before attempting this method, make sure you have an acceptable place to ash. An ashtray is preferable, but in the absence of one you should ash in the sink, in a cup, on asphalt, or a surface that can be easily cleaned.

Answer: Avoid ashing on wood, carpet, tile, or cloth as these will be stained and/or burned. Hold your cigarette steadily between your index and middle finger.

Problem: How to be nice to your wife
Make the bed in the morning and prepare breakfast.
Start your wife's day off right by making the bed in the morning while she gets ready for the day so she does not have to do it. A small gesture like this can show her that you want to be helpful and make her day that much easier.
Answer: You can also improve her morning by making breakfast for her. This could be a nice cup of coffee and some eggs or setting out coffee in a travel mug and yogurt for her to grab on her way out.
