Problem: Article: If you’re not sure about the conditions in your garden, spend a sunny day watching the way the shadows fall throughout the day, then pick the sunniest spot for your dill.  Dill is self-sowing, which means it produces seeds which will grow new plants, so choose a spot where you’ll want to grow dill for the next several years. If you don’t have a spot that gets 6-8 hours of sun each day, plant it in the sunniest spot you have available. Dill can tolerate some shade but it won’t be as bushy. Dill grows best in well-drained soil, and adding compost to your garden can help prevent standing water. If your soil isn’t the best quality, though, don’t worry; dill prefers somewhat poor, sandy conditions. You can make your own compost from the food scraps your family uses, or you can purchase compost from a co-op or garden shop.
Summary: Choose a location that gets 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. Add aged compost to the garden before you plant your dill.

Problem: Article: Pick a time each day to go through your backpack and sort your papers and other supplies. Move graded work and old handouts to a folder you keep at home, so you can use them to study later. Check that all your homework assignments are packed into the right folder in your binder. Some people remember to do this more often if they organize their binder right after they get home. Waiting too long can make you unwilling to return to "school mode." A daily planner or portable calendar makes keeping track of assignments much easier. Many people write down each assignment in the space provided for the day it is due. If you keep forgetting to look ahead at your assignment, however, you can try a different system that keeps all your current assignments in the same place:  Each time you are given a new assignment, write it down in your planner in the space for today' date. Write the due date next to the name of the assignment. Each evening after school, look at your planner's entry for yesterday's date. Cross out any assignments you've completed, then re-write the names of all uncompleted assignments in today's date. Notebooks, binders, and returned assignments can easily get lost in a pile of clutter when you leave them at home. Prevent this by clearing space on a bookshelf or drawer, and always keep your notebooks in the same place. Put all papers left at home in a special folder for that class, separate from the one in your binder. Ideally, you won't need extra notebooks, but some teachers will require you to use them. If they do, make it easy to remember which is which by keeping them color coded. For example, if you keep your math papers after a blue divider in your binder, use a blue notebook and supply case for your math class.
Summary: Organize your binder each night before class. Use a planner. Keep supplies left at home in a special place. Color code your other supplies to match your binder.

Problem: Article: Maybe you need to use a new technique or change your approach in order to love your job. When work becomes mundane, it can feel more difficult to face. In these situation, changing your approach might be helpful. This is sometimes called job enrichment.  Look for little opportunities to change up your routine at work. Making small changes may make work feel more fun and help keep things fresh. For example, if you are a teacher, try a new lesson plan now and then or test out a new teaching strategy. If you are a cashier, try asking each customer a different question to make small talk. If you are not enjoying your job, then you might be focused on all of the negative aspects of it. To start loving your job, you will need to identify what you like about your job and start focusing on those positive aspects instead. Try writing down all of the things that you like about your job. These can be small or big things. For example, you might like your hours, your coworkers, your responsibilities, and the location of your workplace. Try reading through this list whenever you are feeling down about your job. If you find that you are having negative thoughts about going to work each day, try keeping a list of the things that you are grateful for. Practicing gratitude can help you to feel happier overall and may also help you see your job in a more positive light. Try listing three things that you are grateful for at the end of each day. For example, you might feel grateful that your boss brought doughnuts into work for everyone, or that you got to work at your favorite station that day, or simply that you have a job. Sometimes work may become a chore if little things start to bother you more than they should. If you find yourself focusing in on minor issues at work, such as a rude customer or making a mistake, remind yourself that these are not important in the grand scheme of things. One way to put problems into perspective is to ask yourself, “Will I be thinking about this moment while I am on my death bed?” If the answer is no, then it is not worth your mental energy now either. Sometimes a job can be more difficult to engage with when other parts of your life are out of balance. Consider other aspects of your life that might be making you unhappy.  For example, are you having any relationship problems? Are you having financial difficulties? Do you feel depressed for no apparent reason? If you are struggling with something, seek help from a friend or family member or talk to a therapist.
Summary:
Change the way that you work. Focus the positive aspects of your job. Practice gratitude. Look at the big picture. Improve other parts of your life.
