Q: Try to cut as close to the root of the brush as possible, but you may have to remove very large brush, such as bushes, in sections. Take your time to ensure that the entire plant down to the root is removed before moving onto the next one. Make a small pile on a clear piece of land where all of your debris will be stacked for removal. You can create a compost box or pile if you would like to use the debris for fertilizing the land. If you aren't going to create a compost pile, you should bundle or bag the debris to be removed by waste management or taken to a dumpster. If there's a weed that can't be removed by pulling or cutting, use a shovel or spade to dig it out by the roots. Dig a circle around the base of the weed and reach under it using the spade or shovel. You can also try pulling on the weed occasionally to break the roots further. Tall grasses and other weeds can be cut down using a manual weed whip or gas-powered weed trimmer, which will maintain the integrity of the soil while giving your land a cleaner look. It's okay to leave short grasses because they help to keep nutrients in the soil. If you plan on farming the land, you will likely be tilling or digging which will remove the smaller grasses when you are ready for planting. This will help to gather most of the cut underbrush into one pile before placing it in containers for removal or adding it to the larger pile of debris. It's okay to leave some grass or sticks, because they will be mixed in with the soil during tilling or fertilizing. Most local waste management systems will accept yard debris if properly prepared for pickup. You can place your debris for pick up at the curb in a few different manners:  Loose containers, which can be dumped into a collection truck. Compostable plastic bags that can be found at most home improvement stores. Brown paper collection bags that can be found at most home improvement stores. Clear plastic bags, if your waste management company allows for this. You should check their website, as some companies will not pick up debris in non-biodegradable bags.
A: Cut down large underbrush with a pruning shear, chainsaw, or hatchet. Pull small weeds, and remove sticks and debris by hand. Dig out stubborn weeds with a shovel or spade. Use a weed removal tools to remove brush close to the ground. Use a rake to gather clippings and excess debris from the ground. Discard of any collected debris using a waste management system.

Q: Tell yourself that you are positive, good at what you do and ready to make changes when needed. Repeat often for maximum effect. Some affirmations you can start with include: "I'm a good person and I deserve to be loved and respected," "I am more than my insecurities," "I am doing the best that I can, and that is all I can do." The moment you let someone judge who you are, is the moment you have lost your happiness to someone else. Don't let other people tell you who you are. This is your life, not theirs. And while it is hard to stand up for what you believe in and to be your whole self, doing so is part of what defines your very best self. Surround yourself with people that make you happy. Being around negative people only drags you down. This may sound like a cliché, but think about how you feel when you're around positive people and how you feel when around negative people. It's two opposite extremes and you know how you'd rather be feeling.
A: Practice self-affirmations in the mirror. Disengage from others' judgmental or unmindful criticism of you.

Q: Choose a tall vase and place it next to your TV. Add some long branches (bare, leafy, or flowering) into the vase to make it taller than your TV. Choose something that is shorter than your TV, such as a lamp, and place it on the other side of your TV. Other great options include statues, busts, figurines, and picture frames. If you like symmetry, place identical items to either side of the TV instead. Potted plants or topiaries make great choices. Place matching lamps or vases to either side of your TV, and something long and skinny, such as a wooden planter, beneath it. Make sure that none of the items obstruct the screen.  If you put plants into the planter, keep them subtle, otherwise they will distract from the TV. Succulents or silk hydrangea blooms work great. Other great items to place below the screen include candle votives or pieces of driftwood. Drape evergreen branches or garlands along the top of the stand, just in front of the TV. Decorate the garland with ornaments and LED pillar candles. If you want to decorate for other holidays, try some of the following ideas:  Switch out the pine garland for one made from silk fall leaves. Decorate the garland with pinecones and acorns. Make paper garlands featuring images from whatever holiday you are celebrating, such as hearts, shamrocks, or bats. Drape a white tinsel garland over the TV stand, then decorate it with plastic Easter eggs. Push the electronics towards the back of the shelf to make some room. Fill the space in front of the electronics with books or decorative boxes. You can also install doors onto cabinet, then close them when you are not using the electronics. Examples of electronics include gaming counsels, DVD players, music players, etc. If you don't use these items more than once or twice a week, then consider hiding them. Choose something that is about the length of your TV, and tall enough to fit under the frame. Place this item in front of the TV to hide the stand. Make sure that the item does not obstruct the diode at the bottom of the TV frame, or you won't be able to use the remote.  This option only works for standing TVs. Wall-mounted TVs do not have a base on which to stand. Great options include long candle holders, drift wood, and garlands. You can even line up small items instead. Shelving units with open backs and fronts are great candidates for extra storage. Instead of stuffing them with plastic tubs or cardboard boxes, choose decorative storage baskets or boxes that match your décor, and use those instead.  You can find beautiful, decorative boxes in craft stores and fabric stores. Some are even made to look like decoupaged luggage! Baskets don't have to be woven. You can use fabric ones, crochet ones, or even metal ones! If you can't find a box that matches your décor, decoupage it!
A:
Place items to either side of your TV to create balance. Place items to the side and below the TV to frame it. Use garlands and ornaments if you want to get festive. Hide electronics that you don't use often. Place a long, skinny item in front of the TV if you want to hide the base. Fill open shelving units with decorative storage items.
