If your team doesn't see the value or believe that working together cooperatively is a wise choice then the team will fail.  Whenever you are assembling a team each member must fully believe in and be committed to working together to achieve the aim of that group.  Any member or members who aren't convinced that teamwork is a good idea will hurt the entire team effort. Make sure each member is ready to fully work together towards the team's goals. Chances are a team member will already know their own role and skills that they bring to the team.  However it is just as important that each team member be aware of the strengths and skills of the other team members.  This allows for each team member to help others or fulfill other roles more effectively.  During any bonding or socializing events make sure to include a portion where everyone has an opportunity to present their skills or strengths. When each team member knows what the others are capable of team efficiency will benefit. A benefit of working together is the introduction of multiple ideas and view points, allowing the team to find solutions that an individual might have missed.  Unfortunately, team work can also cause conflict to arise when ideas or discussions clash.  Have your team work through conflict, using it to their benefit.  Conflict can cause team effectiveness to fail. Try to resolve conflict before it grows into a more serious issues. Part of being a human is having and feeling emotions.  While many emotions can lead to a positive and healthy team there are some that can pose a threat to the cohesion of the group.  By training your team in matters of emotional intelligence you can help avoid any emotional difficulties or outbursts that could injure the team effort.  The first step in emotional awareness is being aware and managing ones own emotions. Self motivation to work as a team is critical to the overall effort. Being aware of others emotional states is important when working with others constructively.

Summary: Express the value of cooperation. Share team members strengths. Manage conflict effectively. Cultivate emotional awareness in your team.


To begin recording, click “Start Recording” at the bottom-right corner of the OBS menu. It may take a while for the recording to actually begin and appear in the preview window. Once the recording has begun, open the World of Warcraft window and start playing. To end the recording, click the “Stop Recording” button that replaces “Start Recording.” Many videos contain content that is unnecessary, such as the character standing around waiting while the player is setting things up. These segments can be edited out to condense the file and make the video more interesting. This can be done using video-editing software that is included with the Windows OS, such as Windows Movie Maker.  Open Windows Movie Maker and select the box that reads “Click here to browse videos and photos.” Select the footage you would like to edit, and click “Open” in the bottom-right corner. Play the video, and when you see the beginning of the part you would like to cut, select the “Split” button on the bottom right of the video preview. This will split the video into sections. Continue playing the video until the end of the part you wish to remove. Then select “Split” again. Select the section in the middle that was just created, then hit Backspace on your keyboard to delete it.

Summary: Begin recording. Start playing. End the recording. Condense the video.


Shoes, tight shoes especially, do not allow for your tattoo to breathe. Instead, they trap your foot in sweat. Shoes can also rub against your tattoo in a bothersome manner. This friction can cause irritation. Irritation and perspiration are not only uncomfortable, in tandem they can lead to a foot infection. So, at least for the first two weeks, try to avoid wearing shoes.  If you wear socks regularly, then make sure you take them off for a few hours during the day. After these first few weeks, you can begin to wear shoes again. However, you should treat your feet as gently as possible. You should take your shoes off as soon as you get the chance, and then make sure to wash your feet thoroughly. If you have to wear footwear as part of your job, make sure that you take a break for the time that you need your feet to heal. If this is not possible, then you should consider wearing sandals. The sun can make your tattoo lose its luster. Therefore, it’s best to not expose your tattoo to the sun. When you can’t avoid the sun, make sure to apply sunscreen to your tattooed area. Restoring your feet is a process. Your body generally takes about three months in order to replace the skin cells over your tattoo. Due to their location, foot tattoos have a high potential for infection. Therefore, make sure you keep an open line of communication with your doctor. Continuous pain, yellowing, and bleeding are all signs of an infection.

Summary: Don’t wear shoes. Keep your tattoo away from the sun. Give your feet time. Communicate with your doctor.


Once you've given your body enough time to digest your dinner, you may still have to sleep with your upper body elevated to prevent the reflux of stomach acid into your esophagus. Sleep propped up in your bed with several pillows or a specially made foam wedge.  Plastic or wooden wedges are made to fit between your mattress and box spring to elevate your upper body. These are available online or at medical supply stores. If you suffer from back pain during your pregnancy, don't forget to support your low back curve with a firm pillow. To help keep food and digestive acids in your stomach, it's best not to bend over an hour or two after meals/snacks. Bending over at the waist puts pressure on your stomach and can squeeze some acid out into your esophagus. Instead, use your knees to bend down to pick up things or ask for assistance.  You may also have to temporarily stop exercises that involve lots of bending over, such as yoga, aerobics or martial arts. Keeping flexible during pregnancy is important, but avoid trying to touch your toes if you're experiencing heartburn flare ups. Finding the right clothes during pregnancy is difficult due to an expanding belly, but it's important not to wear shirts and pants too tight because they can push your growing baby into your stomach and trigger indigestion or heartburn. Instead, wear loose-fitting and comfortable clothing, especially during the last half of your pregnancy.  Consider wearing partially synthetic fabrics which have lots of stretch to them so your abdomen experiences less pressure. Avoid belts and opt for elastic waistbands on pants and shorts. Another strategy for coping with chronic indigestion and heartburn during pregnancy is chewing gum after meals. Chewing gum stimulates the production of more saliva from glands, which can help to neutralize acid reflux in your esophagus when you swallow it. Compounds in saliva are much more alkaline than stomach acid, so it helps to neutralize it and stop the burning sensations.  Avoid peppermint or wintergreen-flavored gum because mint and menthol can trigger or aggravate heartburn symptoms. Avoid gum sweetened with aspartame because it can bloat you and promote indigestion/heartburn. The sweetener xylitol is a better, safer choice. Most women know that cigarette smoking can harm developing babies, but most probably don't know that it also boosts stomach acid production. Smoking also decreases the esophageal sphincter's ability to open and close properly. Needless to say, stop smoking immediately if you're pregnant.  The lower esophageal sphincter is the valve between the tube that carries food (esophagus) and the stomach, where most of the digestion takes place. Babies born to mothers who smoke are smaller in weight and tend to have many more health problems.
Summary: Sleep with your head or upper body slightly elevated. Avoid bending over at the waist. Wear loose clothing and avoid anything tight around your stomach. Chew gum after meals. Don't smoke.
