Summarize the following:
This is an incredibly easy and rewarding habit to add to your personality. People love to talk about themselves and if you are a curious and insightful person you should always be able to find something interesting about the person. Imagine a metal detector on a beach. Keep asking questions until you get closer and closer to the topic that they like talking about the most. For many people, it's their work, or their family, or their children. Find out what makes them tick and you'll end up having an interesting and valuable discussion. For example, if you meet someone try to find out what makes them interesting. It doesn't have to be a constant stream of questions but balance talking about your own experiences with what they say. Maybe you really like mountain biking and you notice they have a mountain bike. Don't start talking about how good you are at mountain biking - ask them a lot about what they enjoy. You don't have to be someone you aren't, but confidence can take many forms. Being confident doesn't mean you have to suddenly be extremely extroverted and talkative. Reassure yourself every day that you are amazing. Just be confident in the personality that you have and other people will be drawn to you. There's no use faking it. People are attracted to those that are real. Practice vulnerability by showing your fears and desires without the fear of rejection. This can help you make better social connections. People will thank you for bringing some fun into their world. Don't make jokes at other people's expense. Just keep a generally positive outlook on the world. When you encounter a problem try to laugh at it with other people rather than mope and complain. Everyone will appreciate this part of your personality and you will probably be happier for it too. This is the most important step. No matter who you are, if you are nice, the only reason a person can dislike you is if they are jealous of you. Never be rude to people. If someone is being unkind to you, try to imagine what might be causing him or her to act this way. Maybe they are going through a really difficult situation in their life and in reality, they are a very good person. Try to assume the best in people. You don't have to be naive and it's okay to remain skeptical, but that doesn't mean you ever have an excuse to treat anyone poorly. You always have to remember to keep your cool. This will earn you an enormous amount of respects, especially if you keep calm in situations where everyone else panics. Just try to take things as they come and don't get too high or too low. This is something that you can do consciously and people will really respect your ability to keep everything together. For example, try to find a way to make people feel comfortable and less tense if something bad happens. If your teacher moves your paper forward a week don't moan and complain - make a joke! Don't pass judgment on anyone too quickly or assume you already have all the friends you need. Even if someone seems like they would be the type of person you normally really dislike, give them an opportunity. That's what you would want, right? It's the golden rule treat other people the way you would like to be treated. You don't need to try to make friends with people who are more popular than you or people you think can help you get ahead. Just deal with the people you meet on a case-by-case basis and surround yourself with the people you really enjoy. Always remain open to new friends and new relationships.

summary: Ask questions and take interest in others. Show your confidence. Remain humorous and lighthearted. Try to be nice. Remain cool, calm and collected. Remain open to new relationships.

Use two parts alcohol to one part distilled water. The alcohol provides more time to paint as it slows down the drying time, while also allowing the dye to spread and dry with a soft, fuzzy edge. To create designs or patterns on the silk, apply even strokes using a paintbrush dipped in the paint color of your choice. The size of the paintbrush you choose will correspond to how thick or thin the lines or designs are. While the silk is still wet, apply your second color. In general, always start with light shades then move on to darker colors (such as a darker shade of your primary color). Since the colors will be transparent, once you go dark, it's hard to go back to light. You may notice some of the colors separating or spreading, which is typical, and can create beautiful blended patterns. You can choose an even darker shade of your primary color or another color to paint on the dry silk next. These lines will dry with a hard edge and may also have a dark outline around them. To soften harsh lines, spray the silk with the diluted alcohol mixture. To add a mottled texture, sprinkle any kind of salt on the silk. Salt is a drying agent which draws the paint toward it, creating a neat effect. After the item has dried for 24 hours, brush off any remaining salt and remove it from the frame. Plug in an iron and heat it to the silk setting. Place the item you're painting facedown on a covered ironing board and cover it with an ironing cloth. Iron small sections, using a circular motion, for 2-3 minutes apiece so the paint sets fully.

summary: Spray the silk with a diluted mix of water and rubbing alcohol. Apply the first layer of paint while the silk is still wet. Add a darker color next to add dimension. Allow the item to dry for a few hours. Build your lines or add designs with a dark color. Create effects with alcohol or salt. Set the paint with an iron after 24 hours.

Healthy leaves will look large, green, have no ridges, and will be much bigger than the seedling leaves. Jackfruit seedlings can be sensitive and do not like to be disturbed. Make sure the seedling looks strong enough before considering transplanting it. Find an area at least 30 feet (9.1m) away from other trees to place the jackfruit plant. Since Jackfruit trees can grow up to 100 feet (30m) tall if left alone, the tree will need a big open space that receives full sun. Avoid planting the tree near your house since the roots will grow out and could cause damage. Find an area that is sheltered from strong wind so that your tree can develop safely. Once you have chosen your spot for the jackfruit tree, clear any surrounding weeds and debris. Be sure to remove any tree stumps and old roots to avoid potential root disease in your jackfruit plant. If necessary, you may need to plough the soil first to ensure it is soft and fertile. Use a shovel to dig a hole 2 x 2 x 2 feet (0.61 x 0.61 x 0.61 meters) deep for your tree. This hole can be square or circular. To check if the soil is well-draining, check to see whether it has any sand or clay. If it does not, you can make your soil drain better by mixing in sand or compost. To give your jackfruit a boost start with natural nutrients, add compost to the soil. Place one hand around the base of the jackfruit plant, on top of the potted soil. With your other hand, tip the pot over so that the plant and soil slide out together. You may need to twist the plant gently or tap the pot to loosen the soil from the edges. Try not to pull the plant out, as it may rip out part of its root system. If the roots have wrapped around the dirt to match the shape of the pot, use your fingers to gently tease the roots so that they are facing outwards. This will help them grow down into the surrounding soil. You don't want to bury the jackfruit itself, so if your hole is too deep, scoop a few handfuls of dirt in to give it a base. Then carefully pat in loose dirt around the roots until the hole is filled. Form a mound around the base of the plant so that the water can run off into the soil. Pat the soil so that it is solid, but be careful not to pack the soil in too tightly. Water the plant immediately. Thoroughly water the jackfruit plant to help it recover and get established in its new surroundings.
summary: Transplant the young jackfruit plant once it has gained four leaves. Choose a spacious, sunny, and sheltered area away from other trees. Clear the surrounding area of roots and weeds. Dig a hole for your jackfruit plant. Remove the plant gently from the pot. Place the plant in the hole and create a mound around the base.
