Q: Recognizing what you love about yourself first will make you much more comfortable in your own skin. Start by making a list of all of the things you love about yourself, whether it's your free spirit, your work ethic, or your shiny hair.  Find at least 10 things you like about yourself. Think about your talents, accomplishments, or characteristics. Appreciate what makes you unique. Perhaps you speak four languages, can walk on your hands, or can instantly make new friends. Not everyone can do that, but you can! Redirect negative thoughts into positive ones. For example, instead of thinking “I’m not pretty enough,” say “I look great today!” Actively giving thanks helps you recognize the wonderful people, things, and opportunities in your life. Make a daily habit of giving thanks to those you love. Appreciate your opportunities, strengths, skills, and blessings.  Keep a gratitude journal and write everything that you’re thankful for. You might include your family, friends, home, hobbies, opportunities, or health. Add 1 thing to this journal every day. If you’re feeling upset or down, try reading through the journal to cheer you up. Always say thank you, whether you're thanking your local barista for an amazing cup of coffee or your father for always being there for you. Always leave some room for laughter in your daily life. No matter how dire your life may seem at a given moment, never forget to take a break to laugh. You'll feel better in both the short-term and the long-term.  Be just plain silly. Tell a corny joke, make a bad pun, or just dance around like a fool. Why not? Laugh at your mistakes. This can defuse the situation and help you realize that things aren’t so bad. Watch a comedy or a comedian. This will make you laugh and can cheer you up. Be around people who love to laugh. Laughter is contagious! Confidence is the key to happiness, but everyone has flaws and weaknesses. Instead of obsessing over your perceived flaws, embrace them. If you want, ask yourself what you can do to improve yourself in this regard.  Make a list of things you want to work on. Make manageable goals to improve. If you hate that you’re always forgetting things, try getting a planner or download a calendar app. Set alarms for when you need to do something. Learn to live with some of your flaws. Perhaps you won’t ever get over your clumsiness, but that’s okay! Try to laugh when you stumble or brush it off as though it doesn’t matter. Forgive yourself. Let's face it: we've all done something we're less than proud of. Whatever you did, you should recognize that it was wrong and understand why you did it, but after that, it's time to let it go.
A: Identify what makes you unique and wonderful. Practice gratitude in your daily life. Fill your life with laughter. Come to terms with your flaws.

Q: Chrono is the mode you use to track your split and lap times. It’s the second option after the main clock. If you scroll too far and miss Chrono mode, keep pressing Mode to cycle through the watch options. The watch modes are Clock, Chrono, Timer, and Alarm. Cycle back to Chrono if you miss it the first time. You have 2 options for the Chrono setting. One displays the current lap time larger with the overall split time smaller. The other reverses the order, and shows the split time larger. Cycle between them with the Start/Split button. Then press Set/Recall again when you pick a format.  If you’re trying to improve your lap time, set the Lap to appear larger. This way, you can see how your laps are measuring up. If you’re just timing your run without tracking laps, then displaying Split larger is more useful. The watch keeps the format that you picked for every time you use the Chrono unless you change it again. This begins the timer. Start your workout and use the Chrono to check your current time. If you’re only measuring your overall run or exercise time, then just let the timer go. If you want a specific lap or split time, the Chrono can also measure this. If you’re tracking your lap progress, press the Start/Split button when you complete a lap. The timer display will show your lap time for 10 seconds so you can read it. The timer continues running in the background and switches back after 10 seconds.  You can use this feature for any measurement. Whether you’re tracking your time per lap, mile, kilometer, or another distance, the Chrono will measure it when you hit Start/Split. Repeat this for as many laps as you’re running to get the time for each lap. If you need a break or want to talk to someone, pause the timer by pressing Stop/Reset. Then when you’re ready to start again, press Start/Split to resume the timer where it paused. Be careful not to accidentally hit Stop/Reset again to start the timer. This will erase your current workout and you’ll have to start over. When you’re done, stop the timer by pressing Stop/Reset and then holding the same button to reset the data. If you want to store and review your workout results, hold Set/Recall to save the data. This brings you to the workout data menu. All the results you’ve stored are on this menu by date. To review your workouts, use + and – to scroll to the one you want to view. Then press Next (or Mode) to open a specific workout.  When on a specific workout, you can view each lap of your run plus the total time. To clear a workout, hold Stop/Reset for 5 seconds. When the watch beeps, the last stored workout is deleted. Continue holding the button to erase all workouts and free up all the watch memory.
A: Press Mode until “Chrono” appears on top of the screen. Set the Lap and Split setting by pressing Set/Recall. Start the Chrono with the Start/Split button. Get your current lap time by pressing the Start/Split button. Pause the timer with the Stop/Reset button. Store the workout by pressing Set/Recall when you’re done. Review your workout by pressing Set/Recall.

Q: Clothing can get in the way of measuring reach properly. It can also make the measurement inaccurate or inconsistent. To get accurate, consistent measurements every time, take off your upper body clothing whenever you are measured. Females can still wear a sports bra, as this won't interfere with the measurement. It's important for your muscles to be warm so that you can reach your best flexibility. Go for a fast walk, a light jog, or try some jumping jacks to spend a few minutes getting your heart rate up. You don't need to do any strenuous exercise. Cycling, skipping, and swimming are also good cardio workouts. Lift 1 arm at a time and stretch it across your body until you feel a comfortable stretch. Hold your arm parallel to the floor as it crosses over your body and then repeat the exercise with your other arm. This provides a good stretch for both your arms and shoulders, which helps you to maximize your reach. Stretching your arms and shoulders is the best way to release any tension in your shoulder joints and to prepare for the measurement.
A: Remove your upper body clothing to get an accurate measurement. Spend 2–3 minutes warming up with light cardiovascular activity. Stretch your arms across your body to reach your peak flexibility.

Q: They like to shred it, and can spend hours with a piece of paper, making it into a thousand small pieces! Just remember to use plain white paper with no dyes, since this could be harmful for your pet. Also, help the bird by having already cut the pieces of paper smaller, so that the bird can handle it. It's a funny thing actually. You can save your birds shed feathers (Do not pluck them off yourself, that's mean!) and when you have a reasonable amount, tie them to the end of a cotton twine or similar, and then you can tie it to the roof of your birds cage, and watch your pet have fun with the new "friend"!
A:
Birds really appreciate paper. Birds like feathers.
