Show up when you say you’re going to show up. If you routinely pick her up half an hour late for your dates, she’ll think that you don’t think she’s so special, and she’ll be less likely to have sex with you. Don’t be a flake. If you say you’re going to take her to the beach over the weekend, do it. If you don’t stick to your word, she won’t be able to trust you....
Believe it or not, smiling and laughing—even when you don’t feel like it—can actually make you feel happier! In time, this leads to an overall more positive attitude. We attract the energy we give off, so if you manifest from a place of desperation or loneliness, you will attract only negative energy in return. Solidify what you want up front: don’t jump from “my ex who I want to get back together with” this week to “that hot guy who works at the food co-op” next week....
Leveraging for Your Relationships For most of us, relationships are extraordinarily important. Yet we’ve all seen or heard stories about the high-powered executive who can’t seem to make time for his family, yet professes that they’re the reason behind everything he does. What would it look like if work and family weren’t a zero-sum game, but instead represented a series of deliberate strategic choices? Phillip Van Nostrand is a high-end photographer in New York City, earning thousands to shoot weddings or events....
Don’t make it too obvious that you’re looking for people you know. You don’t want to appear closed off to making new friends. In other words, try not to look like you are only looking for one person. Look around calmly and casually. Enjoy the view, but as you do this, do a quick scan around the room to see if you already know people. If you see someone you know, but they’re talking to someone else, wait for a bit of a lull before catching the person’s eye and walking over....

If there are perishable items in the refrigerator, finish them or give them away. If you’re in the middle of a big move, it’s probably easier to just to toss the things you can’t finish now. If you want to move the fridge a short distance in the same room, to clean behind it or reorganize the kitchen, remove the items anyway, and place them on the counters. It’ll make it safer to move and you won’t risk tipping over the fridge....
Do you find that you lack any desire for or attraction to members of either gender? You may think some people are good looking, but do not feel “turned on” by looking at them the way your friends seem to be. Or are you attracted to some people of the same and/or opposite gender, but you do not actually want to have sex with those people? Did you try making out with, or having sex with people you felt attracted to, and find you did not enjoy the experience?...

Keep the “at home” binder or folders in an obvious place where they won’t get lost in clutter, such as on a bookshelf in your room.

Write the reason down on your paper. It could also be more than one reason––scribble them all down too. In order to change, you will need to set goals about changing your behavior. It will be easier to set concrete goals if you know exactly how much time you spend listening to music. During the day you track your listening time, listen to music as you normally would. You can be even more accurate by tracking your listening habits over a few days....

If you don’t have a large enough tarp, move the tarp with you as you paint. Remove any decorations on the fence, along with the nails or screws holding them up. You can add new screws and nails when you finish painting. It’s best to replace boards or panels if they’re splitting, bowing, or rotting. Garnet sandpaper works best for sanding wood.

You can stand on a ladder if you’d like to get closer to the gutters to clean them. Ensure your gutters aren’t loose or severely rusted prior to power-washing them to avoid potential damage. Do a thorough rinse of the gutters using the power washer, making sure you spray off any caked on dirt, debris, or flaking paint in the corners and underneath the gutters. You may find it easier to take off the gutters and place them on a flat surface to scrub them down....

Most furniture pieces only need 1 coat of primer. If you notice any areas missing the primer, go back over those spots. To help your paint stick even better, lightly sand over the dried primer. Be sure not to sand too hard and remove the white tinge of the primer....
