Problem: Article: Visiting spaces that have been designed by a professional interior designer or decorator will help train your eye, enabling you to learn more about the most desirable trends.  Pay attention to color schemes, space planning, and small details. Keep a notebook with you and record your observations, both positive and negative. This is a great way to grow and learn as a decorator. Keeping up-to-date with the most relevant decorating and design trends will help you build a decorating business that will attract your ideal clientele. You will always want to be one step ahead of your clients on the design front, suggesting to them the newest design concepts that are beyond their imagination.  Some magazines you should look at include: Architectural Digest, Better Homes and Gardens, Country Home, Design Directions, Elle Décor, Home Restoration & Remodeling Magazine, House and Garden, Interior Design, Interiors & Sources, Metropolitan Home, Style at Home, Traditional Home, and Victorian Homes. Make sure to review commercial interior design magazines as well as consumer-driven interior design. Understanding the way your space works is fundamental to interior decorating. Design is visual as well as physical. Elements of design include balance, emphasis, movement and patterns.   The single most important element of interior design is lighting. For example, there are three forms of lighting: ambient lighting, which provides overall illumination; task lighting, which provides light for specific activities; accent lighting adds focus to particular elements of the space. Focus on developing you own style and interests to give your decorating business a unique and personalized touch. Do this so that people will seek you out for your particular specialty.  Developing your particular niche interest will help your business be more marketable and attractive to your clients. Your business will do best if you're able to find a type of interior design that's being overlooked in your local market. Find every opportunity to practice trying out your ideas of interior design to improve your skills. Discuss your end visions with an experienced or professional decorator or designer. For example, take a random swatch of fabric or paint chip and attempt to design a room (either mentally, through sketching, or using a computer) that incorporates those details. Learning how to take pieces of a puzzle and create a full picture is an essential part of becoming an interior decorator.  Realize that learning more about interior design takes time. You'll learn more skills over time. One way to get training and practice in interior design is to find a job working for someone who has her own business. You'll learn more about what starting your own decorating business will be like.
Summary: Visit high-end spaces. Read relevant magazines. Know the basics of design. Find your focus. Practice your interior decorating skills.

Problem: Article: You should always keep in mind that it's not what you like, but what you have researched and know that your visitors/customers will like. Just because you like the name or think it sounds good does not mean everyone else is going to like it.  Run potential names by others in your organization. For example, if your website will sell goods, ask your sales managers. If you have a blog, ask other bloggers. If you have a small website, ask family members or friends what they think of your potential names. Hire a marketing or consulting firm to give you feedback or recommendations for names. Another way of researching potential names is to run an internet search to see what other people have. By exploring the internet and seeing what your competitors or even non-related businesses have chosen, you'll get a lot of ideas.  Search for websites that are in the same business as you. For example, if you sell tools online, look for other tool websites. Take a look at the names of the top 100, 500, or even 1000 websites. By doing this, you'll get an idea of what the most successful websites have in common. Use your search as an opportunity to rule out names that are already taken, or names that are very like those used by other companies. Be very careful not to register domain names that include trademarked names. Thus, you should search to see if your website does not violate someone's trademark.  Stay away from domain names in which part of the name is trademarked. You might wind up having to give up your domain name (and the brand you've built around it.) Even if you believe your domain name is untouchable by a business that has trademarked a name, do not take the chance. The cost of litigation is extremely high. Search for trademarks at: https://www.uspto.gov/trademarks-application-process/search-trademark-database. The extension you pick is very important, as it provides information about the type of business or website you are running. At the same time, the public has varying conceptions about different extensions. While most people trust “.com” extensions, they may be wary of “.biz” extensions.  The most popular and often preferred extension is the .com extension. Roughly 75% of websites have it. Many web experts advise that if the .com is too expensive or is taken, you should probably try the .net or .org extensions – whichever is more appropriate. The .org extension is best used for nonprofit organizations. The .net extension is often used by companies that offer internet services. Other popular extensions include .info .biz, and .us. The .info extension is best used for websites that offer information to the public, the .biz extension is best used for businesses, and the .us extension should be used by companies located in the United States. Stay away from obscure extensions like .cheap or .camera. Once you've got an idea of what you want your name to be, you should make a list of a variants. By doing this, you'll be able to experiment with different names that might be similar but could be more memorable.  Try simple changes in your name. For example, if your site will be called "MikesTools.com", you should also consider buying "MikeTools.com" and "MikeTool.com.” Try changing the subject of your name. For example, if the name of your company is Mike's Tools, you may want to consider domain names that target what you sell. For example, try "buyhammers.com.” Domain name generators will ask you to input a keyword and then will generate available names. While you may not like any of the names generated, they'll provide you with ideas.  Use Wordoid. While this is not a domain name generator, you can input a word and it will provide you with new or similar words. Experiment with DomainHole. This is a domain name generator that help you create new domain names based off a keyword you supply. Other popular sites that may help you come up with ideas for your domain name include: Name Mesh, Dot-o-mator, NameStation, and Domainr.
Summary: Ask others. Run a search for similar names. Make sure your name is not trademarked. Pick the right extension. Consider different names. Play with a domain name generator.

Problem: Article: Usually, you will get a drain after surgery to suction off fluid. Some doctors prefer to remove it at a specified time, such as 2 days after surgery. However, it can reduce how much drainage you have overall if your doctor waits until your drainage levels drop below 20 milliliters (0.68  fl oz) per 24-hour period before removing the drain. That means you may need to wear it home instead of having it come out in the hospital. However, if your doctor gives you a choice, it can be the better option. Your body needs time to recover, which means no cleaning, gardening, or even dog-walking while you're recovering. You should wait until at least 3 days after your drain has been removed to resume normal activities. Otherwise, you risk increasing the amount of drainage from your mastectomy. Also, skip exercising and anything that requires you to lift your arm more than 90 degrees. While some studies have shown complete immobilization to be helpful, more doctors agree that just delaying shoulder exercises can be beneficial. It may reduce the overall drainage you experience. Talk to your doctor about this option. Usually, you perform shoulder exercises after surgery to increase mobility. Sitting up straight may seem like strange advice after surgery. However, slouching or hunching over can actually delay your recovery, which means more drainage overall.
Summary:
Wait to remove the drain. Rest your arm and body until 3 days after your drain is removed. Ask about delayed shoulder therapy. Work on your posture.
