Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Mix aloe vera gel with vitamin E oil if you have aging skin. Combine vitamin E oil and petroleum jelly if your skin is dry. Mix vitamin E oil with other natural ingredients to create face mask.

Answer: Spoon 3 to 4 teaspoons (15 to 20 mL) of aloe vera into a small bowl. Next, puncture a capsule of vitamin E oil with a safety pin or other sharp object so the oil can also be squeezed into the bowl with the aloe vera. Use a spoon to stir the ingredients together, creating a light green mixture. Coat your fingertips in this mixture and apply it to your face in small, circular motions.  This treatment is especially good if you’re trying to make your skin look dewy and youthful. You can find aloe vera gel at most grocery or health supply stores. Double, triple, or multiply this recipe however much you want to create a larger batch. Scoop 0.5 teaspoons (2.5 mL) of petroleum jelly into a small bowl. Don’t worry if you have to scrape the product onto the edges of the bowl—this serum will end up being very thick. Puncture and squeeze 1 capsule of vitamin E oil into the bowl of petroleum jelly, and stir the 2 substances together vigorously. Once both ingredients are thoroughly mixed, use the tips of your fingers to apply the serum around your face in round, circular movements. Add 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of plain yogurt and 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of honey into a small bowl. Next, pour in 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of lemon juice, as well as 4-5 drops of vitamin E oil. Mix these ingredients together until they form a paste. Apply this all over your face with a makeup brush, and rinse it off after 10 minutes with cool water. Try not to leave this mask on for too long, as it might make your skin feel irritated.

If you have more than one Google account used on your phone, you will have to select the account you wish to backup. If you do not want to back up a certain Google app, press on it to deselect it. The icon is located to the left of your Google account. Tapping on it will cause your apps to sync to the Google account you're signed into. All of the selected apps will be backed up. The sync should automatically happen when you open this menu, but you can ensure that your backup is up-to-date by tapping on the refresh icon.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be aware. Track your apologies. Re-learn when apologies are in order. Swap apologies for a silly word. Show gratitude. Try using empathy as an alternative. Laugh at yourself instead.

Answer: How much apologizing is too much? If the following sound familiar, you may be going overboard. Note how all of these apologies are all excuses for normal, non-harmful actions and states.  "I'm sorry, I don't want to bother you." "I'm sorry, I just went for a jog and now I'm all sweaty." "I'm sorry, my house is a mess right now." "I'm sorry, I think I forgot to put salt on the popcorn." Make a mental or written note of all the things you apologize for and take a good look at them. Ask yourself whether or not what you did was either intentional or harmful. After all, these are the conditions that really require apologies.  Try tracking your apologies in this way for a week. You might find that many of your apologies seem to be aimed at avoiding confrontation or maybe appearing more humble and sweet. Notice whether or not the apology feels as if you have cleared up something that offended another person or your standards for yourself. Try to get a sense for when it feels perfunctory, as if you have to cover your bases to make room or subtly ask permission for your actions and opinions.  If you feel lost, start by drawing the line at your role in an event and leave it at that. This can be particularly difficult if you are someone who apologizes on behalf of others in order to nip conflict in the bud. However, apologizing on others' behalf often leads to feelings of resentment, as you are taking on others' responsibilities in addition to your own.  When to apologize is always a judgment call; it won't be the same for everyone. As you begin to notice the unnecessary apologies, swap it for a word like "humdinger" or "beep-bop". This pairs unnecessary apologies with a feeling of ridiculousness that comes with the silly word and improves your ability to keep tracking your apologies   Without replacing frequent apologizing with other qualifiers, you run the risk of slipping back into apology land. Use this trick while you are tracking your apologies. Then you can begin replacing apologies with more meaningful expressions of care. In some situations, it may be more appropriate to simply say "thank you". For instance, say your friend goes to take out the trash before you get to it. In lieu of apologizing for not having done the chore fast enough, give credit where it is due. Focus on your friend having stepped up rather than what you think you should have done. This unburdens you from feeling responsible and creating guilt where it is not, and unburdens your friend from having to reassure you that taking out the trash wasn't a bother. Empathy is the ability to put yourself in others' shoes, and you can use it to build solidarity (as you may have been trying to do through apologizing). Empathy will be more highly valued to your loved ones than showing guilt because you are showing concern without effacing yourself in the process.  Instead of making those in your life feel that you are indebted to them, make them feel heard and understood.  You could try talking about how they may feel about a situation. For example, if a person has had a bad day at work, try saying something like, "That sounds like it was rough" instead of "I'm sorry." This allows the other person to know that you're paying attention to how she feels. There are many instances where we want to express an awareness of our own goofiness, and this can be done without apologizing. Say you accidentally spill some coffee or suggest a restaurant that you then find is closed. Instead of presenting your awareness of the accident with an apology, present it with laughter. Humor is a good way to soften tension in situations and help others feel at ease. If you laugh at mistakes instead of apologize, you and everyone around you will see that you have acknowledged a misstep. Laughing makes the best of this misstep by helping you take it a little less seriously.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Switch off when you leave. Remember you are not your job. Volunteer on the side. Indulge your hobbies and passions. Consider speaking to a therapist.

Answer:
If you find yourself thinking about your job after leaving work, try to avoid this. Think to yourself, "I did what I could today, and now I can relax." When you're not at work, focus on things like your hobbies, friends, family members, pets, and other aspects of life outside the office. You work hard and are entitled to unwind at the end of the day. Try to avoid talking or complaining about your job after work. This only exacerbates the issues, and it’s best not to bring work into your home life. If you're unsatisfied at work, you may internalize these feeling and start feeling negative about your life overall. Strive to remind yourself you are not your job. You have other things going on, like friendships and family obligations, outside the office. Place your focus here when you feel discouraged. Not everyone can work a job that fulfills their dreams. If you're not in the exact field you love, pursue your passions outside of work. Volunteer at an organization that could use extra help. For example, if you're working an office job, but your goal is to work with kids, volunteer at a daycare, library, or school to help tutor kids. Work doesn't have to be your only outlet in life. Think about your passions and find ways to indulge them on the side. Form a band with friends if you're interested in music. Join a local theater troupe if you're interested in acting. There are many things you can do to feel fulfilled outside of work. Sometimes, it’s not the job that’s the problem, and it may be that underlying issues are making you unhappy. Talking to a therapist can help you work through these problems and pinpoint if you are suffering from anxiety or depression.
