Problem: Article: Your chocolate filling should have been chilling for about 30-45 minutes. Once you have refrigerated the filling for this time period, remove it from the refrigerator. In order to fill the donuts with chocolate, you will need to create a hole on the side of it. Use the tip attached to the piping or pastry bag. Gently poke a hole in the side of the donut. Once you poke a hole in the side of the donut, firmly squeeze the piping or pastry bag. Keep squeezing until you have filled the center of the donut. Serve as soon as they are filled, as chocolate filled donuts are best enjoyed immediately!

Problem: Article: With most projects, the budget and schedule are the most important part of a status report. Your manager wants to know that the project will be completed on time, and ideally under budget. The overall information for the project will likely be broad. Find out what smaller things must be done to achieve the ultimate goal. For example, if your goal is to produce 1,000 T-shirts and your budget is $500, you need to know what materials are needed to produce the shirts and whether they are already on hand or must be ordered. If there are overall goals for the project, splitting them up into smaller goals allows you to better evaluate progress towards meeting those goals. Start with specific deadlines that have already been set, then try to build in time where you can to accommodate challenges. For example, if your goal is to produce 1,000 T-shirts in 4 months, you can break that goal down into smaller goals of 250 T-shirts each month. If the team produced 300 T-shirts in the first month, you could report that you were ahead of schedule. The purpose of a status report is to let your manager know quickly what is working and what isn't. Put accomplishments at the top, focusing on milestones. Include as many specific details as possible. If you're working on a team, talk to other team members about what's going well with the project. Include as many names in your report as possible. Use specific numbers where you can, as opposed to generalities. If you recognize issues with the project, don't try to hide them. Instead, be up front with your manager about the issues and suggest solutions. Try to come up with several options so they can choose the one they like best. For example, if your project is ahead of schedule but behind on budget, you might suggest speeding up production, adding another employee to the project, or boosting the budget. Through the lifetime of the project, smaller goals represent milestones that must be achieved by a certain point to keep the project on track. Using the current status of the project, predict when the next milestone will be reached. For example, suppose you produced 250 shirts in 28 days. You might predict that the next 250 shirts will be completed in 28 days from the date of the status report. Include a human element to your status report with information about team members whose work has been outstanding, or changes made that affected performance. For example, you might write "The project is ahead of schedule, in large part, thanks to the diligent efforts of Sally Sunshine. Sally worked overtime 3 days last week."
Summary: Gather budget and scheduling information. Break down large goals into smaller ones. List major accomplishments. Brainstorm fixes for problems. Identify key milestones and projections. Add any notes that are important to the project.

Problem: Article: Avoid crossing your legs or slouching while you sit. Bend your knees at 90-degree angles, and try to keep them aligned with your hips. Sit up straight, but maintain your back's natural curves, which resemble the curves of the letter S. Try using a lumbar pillow to support the curve in your lower back. Keep a small gap between the edge of your seat and the back of your knees. Maintain good posture throughout the day, whether you're at your desk, driving or walking. If you work in an office or have to sit for long periods, try to get up and stretch at least every half hour. Staying in the same position for long periods of time can cause your joints to lock up and creak. When you get up and move around, try doing neck stretches, shoulder stretches, and knee bends. If possible, go for a walk around your office or up and down a hallway. Maintain an upright position as you walk, and avoid slouching or staring down at your phone. Try not to let your ankles roll or allow your knees to collapse inward, and keep your hips from tilting up and down. Point your toes forward as you walk, and keep your knees aligned with your toes when you bend them. Improper walking posture can lead to long-term joint issues. If your knees, ankles, and hips fall out of alignment, you might hear your tendons crack and pop as they rub against bones. Over time, this friction can result in joint damage. Never bend over from your waist and lift objects with your back. Instead, face forward, keep your torso straight, bend your knees and stick your rear end out as you lower yourself toward the ground. Bring the object as close to your body as you can, and raise your body by steadily straightening your legs. Keep your legs in a wide stance when you lower yourself to pick up the object. When you lift, straighten your legs steadily instead of using jerking motions. Engage your abdominal muscles as you lift to maintain your core's stability. If you usually wake up with sore, creaking joints, changing your sleeping position might help. Sleeping on your stomach flattens your spine's natural alignment and can cause back pain. Instead, sleep on your side or back, and use pillows to cushion your legs. If you sleep on your side, place a pillow between your knees. If you sleep on your back, place a pillow under the backs of your knees.
Summary: Sit upright with your back supported and feet flat on the floor. Avoid sitting for more than 30 minutes at a time. Walk with your chest lifted and knees, hips, and feet aligned. Lift objects with your legs instead of your back. Sleep on your side or back instead of your stomach.
