Q: When her kids are around, make it a point to say hi and get them to smile. Try complimenting some aspect of their appearance, like their favorite toy or new pair of shoes, or pointing out things you have in common, like your mutual love of ice cream. Getting her kids to like you is a surefire way to win her approval.  Having your own child or a younger sibling with you can provide you with a convenient icebreaker and help you make that initial introduction. Make sure it’s alright with her before you give her kids gifts. Instead of making the conversation all about her, bring up the little ones yourself. Ask about their names, ages, hobbies, and personalities. This will give her a chance to gush and reassure her that her responsibilities as a single parent won’t scare you off.  Try not to seem too eager to get to know her kids right off the bat. It will take time for her to feel comfortable enough with you to set up that first meeting.  Steer clear of sensitive or invasive questions, like why the child’s other parent is no longer in the picture. She might view this as a violation of her privacy. Put your best manners on display—smile politely, hold doors for strangers, and remember to say “please” and “thank you.” As a single mother, she spends most of her time tending to another person’s needs. The key to wowing her is to demonstrate that you’re capable of thinking of someone other than yourself. If you’re out for dinner or drinks, be polite to the waitstaff and tip generously. Your generosity won’t go unnoticed. If you’re guilty of a particular vice, such as smoking, drinking, or listening to inappropriate music, now may be the time to give it up. The same goes for harmless but inconvenient behaviors like staying out too late. There’s little chance of her thinking that things between you could ever work if your lifestyles are just too different. Avoid using curse words or making crude jokes when her kids are around. Keep the language PG.
A: Show her that you’re good with children. Take an interest in her kids. Treat the people around you well. Cut out habits that aren’t kid-friendly.

Article: Forget about trying to please. Fear of judgment shouldn’t keep you from letting the world know how you feel. Not everyone will always be interested or agree with what you’re saying. This shouldn’t discourage you from doing yourself justice. Ask yourself what’s the worst that could happen if you do speak up. Once you look closely at your reasons for keeping quiet, you’ll find that they begin to disappear. Stand by the validity of your views. In order for your words to have weight, you yourself have to acknowledge their worth. Even if you and the people around you don’t see eye-to-eye, the important thing is that you have the courage to make your position known. Anxiety about how you might be perceived shouldn’t keep you from standing behind what you think is right.  Stick to your guns. It's not always easy to muster up the courage to tell someone "you're being selfish," or "I don't think what you're doing is right." If you feel a pressing urge to speak up about a certain issue, however, that probably means it’s important. Express your opinions without shame, but don’t shove them down anyone’s throat. When an opportunity to speak comes, seize it. Be conscious to the discussions going on around you and wait for the right time to put in your two cents. Your listeners may be impressed by what you have to say, leading them to seek your input more often. Too many people hold back because they’re afraid of drawing attention or saying something stupid, but you never know when you’ll get another opening.  Making assertive statements and asking well thought out questions shows initiative. Even saying "I'm not sure I understood that last point. Could you explain it again?" shows that you're engaged and making an effort to promote equal discussion. By the time you work up the nerve to speak, someone else might have already said what you were going to say. Stop telling yourself “No one wants to know my opinion.” Your thoughts are as legitimate as anyone else’s.  In fact, they might actually be in line with a majority of people who are too timid to speak up themselves. When you expect to be laughed at or contradicted, you’re only undermining the way you feel. Witnessing your confidence and willingness to boldly state your claims can inspire others to champion their own beliefs more freely.

Q: The race starts at 5 am, so it's important to get there early. It's important to know the marathon route, as all streets are closed overnight and re-opened during certain hours throughout the day. Avoid thinking and concentrating on running like it's the only thing on your mind. There are lots of Pacific Ocean sights over Kalanianaole Highway and Diamond Head, so take a breath and enjoy the views. Take advantage of any water cups or sponges as you move along. Even if it's throwing the water on your hair or the back of your shirt, you will feel better and more energized. The marathon doubles up along Kalanianaole Highway, so cheer on encouragement to those on the other side of the road. There is a lot of Aloha spirit and even if it's cheering on a Japanese participant, everyone has fun.

Arrive at Ala Moana Beach Park. Take in the views. Hydrate yourself at all times. Cheer on others.
