Article: . It’s important to pursue what makes you happy, both in your work and in your leisure time. Most people have hobbies or activities that they enjoy doing in their down time, but what about work? If you’re turning over a new leaf in your life, you may want to focus on finding work that makes you happy and fulfilled.  Instead of seeking status and money (which can be important, of course), focus on finding a job that challenges you and gives you some degree of responsibility. This will help you grow and better yourself with long-term results.  Do something you enjoy, or spend time with people you care about, every day. This will help you remember that you can create the future you want for yourself. Part of turning over a new leaf means letting go of what you once wanted for your life. You don’t have to abandon general life goals (like having a stable job or finding a supportive partner), but you may have to let go of the particulars of your old goals and adjust to your new circumstances. Learning to see this as a good thing, and as the beginning of a wonderful time in your life, will help you feel better about the transition. Work on developing S.M.A.R.T. goals, or goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, results-focused, and time-bound.  Specific — Your goal should have a concrete outline, motivation, and plan.  Measurable — Each goal should have a clearly-stated result and a way of measuring success along the way.  Achievable — Working towards your goal should be challenging, but ultimately realistic and achievable.  Results-focused — Your goal should measure specific outcomes and results, rather than just measuring actions. Focus on goals that allow you to see concrete results, and work hard until you see those results.  Time-bound — The timeline for achieving your goals should be compact enough to create a sense of urgency and motivation, but realistic enough to allow for inevitable complications or slip-ups. Research has shown that writing down your goals on a tangible piece of paper and looking at that reminder every day can help strengthen your resolve. No matter what your goals are, write them down and hang the paper in a prominent place that you'll see every day.  Having a concrete goal to work towards and being reminded of that goal on a regular basis tends to make people happier, regardless of their current circumstances.  Look at your written goals as often as you need to. This is an important step in working towards your goals and can help keep you motivated along the way. The path to success is invariably filled with plenty of ups and downs. It can be easy to lose sight of your goals when things aren’t going particularly well, which makes it all the more important to take stock in the little victories. See little victories in everything you do. Even if you suffer a loss, like losing your business, see it as a victory in its own right: you’re no longer shackled to the business, and you’re free to start over however you want. Inevitably there will be someone who tells you that you will not succeed, or who tells you that your efforts are pointless. Many people do not understand the importance of pushing yourself and trying to better yourself. Motivation and work ethic are obviously important, but it’s equally important to seek support and validation from the people you care about. Your friends and loved ones should be there to offer encouragement and also challenge you to help you grow.  If your friends or colleagues do not support your efforts to better yourself, you may want to seek out like-minded people who will support you. You can turn to individual people for support, or a larger community. Don’t be afraid to seek support from colleagues, people in your church (if you’re religious), or even people in your community.

Problem: Article: Stage makeup and latex is designed to give you a realistic look that you could use on stage. But, you can also use it for a costume, party, or simply for fun.  You will need:  Liquid latex. Ben Nye makes a good liquid latex that is often used in the theatre. Brushes. Fake blood. Tissue paper. Try to use plain tissue paper without etching or designs. Dark eyeshadow. It’s also a good idea to lay some newspaper down as liquid latex and the fake blood can get messy. Liquid latex dries pretty quickly so you want to work in smaller sections rather than one large area. Press the tissue paper down on the latex. The tissue paper will stick pretty well to the latex. You can then pull and tear away the edges of the tissue paper which aren’t attached.
Summary: Gather your materials. Add your tissue paper.

Place your pattern onto your chosen material and outline the edges of the panel. Before cutting any material, understand that the edges of each panel will need to be stuck together and then sewn. Once you have outlined your pattern onto your material, including battens and seams, you may now cut out your pattern. When creating a seam with shape, you want the shape to be about 35% from the luff. Move from panel to panel while leaving extra cloth at the external edges of the sail. It’s best to trim and adjust the sail shape once all panels are sewn together. Stick and sew two panels at a time until the sail is all in one piece. You can now trim it to your design on the table and draw on the batten pockets. Using dacron tape or reinforced monofilm tape, reinforce the seams. You can also glue a layer of cloth on either side of the material for added strength. There will be a high degree of force applied to these areas so ensure that they can withstand that amount of tension. Depending on the type of sail, attach the luff once you have dealt with the batten pockets. Measure the width of existing sails and adjust your sail accordingly. Sleeves can either be a single piece or made from a number of pieces of material but ensure that the head is reinforced and capable to withstand the strain from the mast tip. Create your sleeve so it fits down to the foot batten.  Create an adjustable head for your sleeve if this is your first attempt at a sail. Use pulleys from old sails or get them from a sail maker.
