Q: Date those steps to indicate when they should be put into motion.  Organize them into bulleted points with as much information as necessary. Make them accountable to you or other people, by asking them to submit a progress report on a specific day. Adjust your steps accordingly to account for adjustments in deadline or approach. Update the documents and share them whenever they change. Consider starting a Google Drive spreadsheet or document if you don’t have a common platform to use with other people in the strategic planning committee. Review it at that time. If it has been successful, consider using similar strategies in the future. If it hasn’t been successful, learn from your mistakes and try new steps each time.
A: Decide when your final deadline to achieve a strategy will be. Break down the strategy into 5 to 10 action steps between now and the final deadline. Mark those dates in your calendar, with extra reminders for projects that will take several weeks to complete. Break each step into sub-steps if necessary. Delegate tasks to others if it is a team strategy. Review the data every month. Share all strategy plans with people who are involved with the strategy. Make a date for the strategy to be complete.

Q: This may sound obvious, but if you really want to get those ollies higher, then you have to keep practicing. But you can't just practice any old technique, or you'll just be repeating the same mistakes again. If you do master the footwork, jumping higher, sucking your feet and board up, and all of the other techniques we've discussed, then continuing to practice definitely will make perfect. Though some people like to practice their ollies first without any speed, you can try rolling to gather a bit more momentum to help you jump higher in the air. It's hard to jump high if you're generating all of the height from your own body without any speed to help you along. So, once you've got the ollie down flat, you can try moving, or even going a bit faster, to help yourself get the momentum you need to jump higher. A lot of people do start their ollies with some speed already, so if this is you, you can just try to go a bit faster as you practice more and more, especially if you're going over objects. Start small, working on doing an ollie over a garden hose, and then work your way up to doing an ollie over a shoebox, or another object that can be easily toppled without hurting you. Once you master this, you can try two shoeboxes or another higher object. Just making visual contact with an object before you jump over it can motivate you to jump higher than if you have nothing to clear. Having this goal set out for yourself can definitely help you get those ollies higher. If you have an old board that isn't in the greatest condition, then you won't be maximizing your ollie potential. A fresh board with some fresh grip tape can help you keep your feet planted on the board, and can also help you suck the board up with you when you jump up, so if you really want to ollie higher, you may consider getting a fresh board.
A: Keep practicing. Pick up more speed. Practice jumping over objects. Get a fresh board.

Q: Chiropractors are doctors who specialize in the spine and other joints. They are trained to treat back problems in natural ways, such as with manual spinal manipulation. Manual manipulation, also called a spinal adjustment, is used to unjam or reposition spinal joints that are slightly misaligned, which triggers inflammation and sharp pain.  A single spinal adjustment can sometimes significantly relieve your lower back pain, but usually it takes three to five treatments to really feel much better. Keep in mind that your health insurance may not cover chiropractic care. Chiropractors also use therapies meant more for muscle strains and ligament sprains, which may be more appropriate for your lower back issue. Electronic muscle stimulation, therapeutic ultrasound and TENS treatments are examples of such therapies. Tractioning or stretching your spine with an inversion table can also help lower back pain. Some chiropractors use inversion tables, which allows you to recline your upper body and enlist the help of gravity to decompress your spine. . As noted above, not all lower back injuries are joint related. Many are related to muscle pulls or strains. A pulled muscle happens when the small muscle fibers tear, which causes pain, inflammation and muscle guarding or spasms. Thus, a deep tissue massage can be great for mild-to-moderate strains because it calms muscle spasms, reduces inflammation and promotes relaxation. Start with a 30 minute massage from a licensed massage therapist, focusing on your lower lumbar spine and pelvis.  A single 30-minute massage session may be enough to soothe your lower back pain, but it often takes a few more sessions to see significant results. For chronic back pain, consider increasing your sessions to an hour and include some mid back and/or leg work also. Drink lots of purified water after any massage in order to flush out inflammatory by-products from your body. Failure to do so might lead to muscle soreness, a headache or some mild nausea. As an alternative to a professional massage, place a tennis ball underneath your low back and roll on it slowly for 15 minutes a few times daily until the pain fades away. Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing art that involves sticking thin needles into specific points within your skin in efforts to reduce pain and inflammation. Acupuncture for lower back pain can be very helpful, especially if it's done when your symptoms are acute (fairly new). Acupuncture apparently works by triggering the release of many substances, including endorphins and serotonin, which act to eliminate the sensation of pain.  There is some research evidence that acupuncture really helps chronic lower back pain, but your results may vary.  Acupuncture points that provide back pain relief are not all located close to where you feel the pain — some are in distant areas, such as your hand. Acupuncture is now practiced by many health professionals — whoever you choose should be certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) attempts to identify your negative thoughts and beliefs, and then replaces them with more positive ones. More specifically, a CBT approach to treating back pain would focus on how you respond to or perceive your pain symptoms. CBT has shown to help reduce stress and chronic back pain in many people.  CBT can be a "last resort" treatment choice for low back pain when nothing else seems to be helpful. Consult your family physician, psychologist or insurance company representative for the names of CBT practitioners in your area. Consider interviewing a couple of them before you decide on which one to proceed with.
A: Make an appointment with a chiropractor. Get a lower back massage Try some acupuncture therapy. Consider cognitive-behavioral therapy.

Q: Spread it evenly onto a baking sheet. If the broccoli is frozen together in a clump, use a knife and fork to separate it. Sesame oil and grapeseed oil also work well. Sprinkle with additional spices like cayenne pepper, paprika, garlic powder or cumin if desired. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the florets have parts that are brown and crispy. Place it in a bowl and serve hot.
A:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C). Remove the broccoli from the freezer. Drizzle the broccoli with olive oil. Season the broccoli with salt and pepper. Place the broccoli in the oven. Remove the broccoli from the oven.
