Problem: Article: At some point, you may be caught in a lie and it is obvious you can’t get out of it. Someone may have found video that proves you lied, or documents of some kind. Rather than extend the lie and make things worse, admit what you did and face the consequences.  You will usually gain some credibility back with the person by admitting it rather than lying again. Learn from your mistakes and try to avoid them the next time you need to lie about something. This may seem counterintuitive, but you will soon find that a huge amount of weight will be lifted from you, and you won't have to keep in your lie. Once you admit the lie, you are likely to be questioned further. Do not try to justify why you lied, but explain what your thought process was. Tell the person why you felt you needed to lie and why the truth would not have worked for you. The person may not accept your explanation or may say it does not make sense or is not good enough. Do not argue, but affirm to them that you stand by your reasoning, even if it ended up being wrong. Lying is likely to cause damage in one way or another, so once you are caught, you will have to fix things. Give the person some concrete steps you plan to take to remedy the situation. Be honest about what you are going to do and then follow through on doing it. The things you need to fix may not be problems as much as strained relationships. You may need to do some emotional work to show your remorse and make up for the lie.
Summary: Admit that you lied and apologize. Explain why you lied without making it an excuse. Tell the person how you will make up for it.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Bring your hands a bit higher than your head.  Make sure they are about five inches in front of your forehead.  Your wrists and palms should be facing toward the ceiling.  Spread your fingers out wide.  Both your thumbs should be facing toward your forehead. Keep your hands at an angle so that the thumb and forefinger of each hand is about two to three inches away from the thumb and forefinger of the other hand. When the ball comes to you, catch it with all of your fingers.  Your ring and pinky fingers will help to keep the ball stable while your other fingers will help you to direct the ball.  Having all your fingers on the ball makes it easier to control.  Bend your elbows when you catch the ball to give your arms a wide range of motion. Don't hold the ball too long when you catch it or you will get called for a “lift.” Make sure both hands touch the volleyball at the same time or you may get called for a “double contact.” Finish your backset by pushing the ball up.  Straighten your arms and release the ball into the air.  Because you have already started the ball moving backwards, it will naturally travel behind you.  End your backset by pushing the ball straight up to give your attacker an easier target to spike.  The entire process from the catch to the release should be one quick motion.  If your set looks disjointed, you might get called for holding on to the ball. You should form a “J” with your hands when you pull the ball back and release it. Remember to follow through with your hands after you release the ball to help it travel where you want it to go.

SUMMARY: Position your hands. Catch the ball. Push the ball up.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: If little things are bothering you and you shove them down, they are just going to turn into an explosion at a bad time. If you deal with them as they happen, it won't be as big of a deal. If you find yourself starting a discussion while angry or getting angry while in the middle of a discussion, you may need to spend some time calming down. You know what calms you down. Maybe you need to take a short walk, listen to some music, or take a relaxing shower. You can also try counting to ten or taking a few deep breathes. Whatever you need to do, take a few minutes to calm down before continuing the discussion. Look for warning signs. If you find yourself feeling like you absolutely must win an argument, it's time to take a break. At that point, you're likely to say something you regret or keep the argument going long past the point that it's wise to do so. When you're angry, you're just thinking about how you've been wronged. However, as soon as you start forcing yourself to think about what the other person is going through, you start to pull yourself out of that mindset. Being empathetic can help drain your anger. It's important to respect what your partner is feeling, as he or she has a right to feel and express his or her emotions, whatever they are. Whether or not you think your partner is right about the problem, you should still validate what the person is feeling. Listening to what the other person has to say can help you develop empathy for what he or she is feeling. Don't just let the words pass over you. Actually think about what the person is saying, and maybe try to understand what is behind the words, as well.  One way to show you are listening is to try to summarize what the other person is saying. For example, you can say, "What I hear you saying is you get frustrated when you do more than your share of the housework." Another way to show you're listening is to ask relevant follow-up questions to make sure you understand what the other person is saying. You also have a right to discuss what you're feeling and thinking. The key is to keep a calm head. It's also important to be clear about what you're thinking and feeling. You can't expect your partner to read your mind when it comes to your thoughts and emotions.  Keep to talking about what you think about the problem, rather than placing blame. In other words, start with "I" instead of "You." For instance, you could say "I get anxious when the house isn't clean. Can we work on making a schedule for house cleaning so we can stay on top of it?" instead of "You never clean house with me!" The key to any relationship is learning to compromise. You can't just expect to win every argument, as relationships involve give and take. Compromising is about finding common ground and both of you giving a little on the issue.   Discuss your needs and wants.  If you can decide on what both you need, you can give a little in the "wants" section. Basically, you need to decide what areas are least and most important to you and learn to give in the areas that aren't as important. If you hate cleaning the bathroom but your spouse wants you to help out around the house more, maybe you can divide chores into ones you find more tolerable and ones he or she finds more tolerable. When you're arguing, it's tempting to name-call or make unfair remarks that drag up the past. You know how to push your partner's buttons because you know him or her so well. However, all that will serve to do is make everyone angrier, and may even damage the relationship irrevocably. Keep to the task at hand.
Summary:
Stop bottling it up. Keep emotions at bay. Think about what the other person is going through. Listen attentively. Discuss your point of view calmly and clearly. Find ways to compromise. Skip the past.
