Problem: Article: Take the time to build solid relationships with the people about whom you care. Listen to their problems. Help them when necessary. When you offend them, apologize and strive to do better. Practice kind gestures like giving people rides or birthday cards. See Have a Healthy Relationship for more advice. Additionally, practice these behaviors:  Build a circle of trust. Make sure your family members and friends know they can share their thoughts openly with you. Do not tell other people's secrets. If someone asks you to keep a confidence, do so. Be compassionate towards others. Even if someone wrongs you, if they are sincere in their repentance, show them forgiveness. Do not bring up their past transgressions in moments of anger. Be direct when speaking to others. Listen carefully and attentively. If you have disagreements, try to fight effectively. That is, do not call each other names. Instead, discuss your problems calmly. Make sure you listen to the other person's point of view.  For example, it might be wise during arguments to repeat the other person's point of view. This shows you understand. You might say, "What I'm hearing you say is that you are annoyed by the fact that I am always home so late." Ask rather than assume. If you feel a relationship is suffering in some way, talk to the other person openly and candidly. Part of living a good life comes from building a tight-knit local network. If you have neighbors, be helpful to them. Watch their cat when they go on vacation. Offer to shovel an elderly neighbor’s driveway. Practice neighborliness and you might find it is contagious. One way to live a good life is to contribute to the community in which you live. You might volunteer at a soup kitchen or run a clothes drive for refugees. Ask your local government representatives or religious organizations for tips on which causes could use help. You also could plan a fundraiser for a cause in the global community.
Summary: Build strong relationships with close ones. Promote healthy communication. Be a good neighbor. Serve your community.

Problem: Article: Healthy self-confidence is great, but there's a difference between being confident and being cocky. If you think this guy seems a little too confident in his efforts to win you over, it could be because he's had plenty of practice. Most people become at least a little nervous around people they're attracted to. A confident guy isn't necessarily a player, but if he doesn't break a sweat while asking you out or seems rather aloof about the whole deal, he might not be that serious about you. If the man is old enough to be your father, it could be a bad sign. Older players who are set in their ways frequently target younger, less experienced women who are easier to trick.  Not every older man is a player, of course, but if there's a huge age gap and he exhibits other signs of being a player, that age gap may work against him. Similarly, not every player is an older man. There are plenty of young players out in the world, too. When he's texting someone, lean in his direction and peek at his phone. You don't even need to see the screen; in fact, you'll learn more by keeping your eyes on him. If the guy's a player, he'll probably yank his phone away faster than you can blink.  Moreover, if he's always on his phone or looks at it more than he looks at you, that could be another bad sign. This piece of advice isn't an invitation to swipe his phone and look at his call log, though. Many people view that as an invasion of privacy, and even guys who aren't players might get upset at the breach of trust. You usually won't need his text or call history as evidence, anyway, since being overprotective of his phone is a bad enough sign on its own. Pay attention to the places he frequents when you're not around. If he still visits the same spots he went to when he was single and picking up women, there's a good chance that he's still in the habit of charming the ladies there. This does not mean that you should stalk him. A healthier way to find out where he's going is ask around and find out who might've seen him and where he was when it happened. You could also try visiting the spot you met him on an evening he might be there.
Summary: Watch out for over-confidence. Calculate the age gap. Glance at the phone. Track him down.

Problem: Article: Get rid of all surface dirt and crumbs that might make cleaning your grout more tedious by wiping down your tile before getting to the grout cleaning. Follow your regular cleaning regimen by sweeping and mopping floors or using a spray cleaner to wipe down countertops. Oxygen bleach is a safe bleach compound, which works to dissolve bacteria and grime while whitening grout. Mix equal parts of oxygen bleach with warm water and allow the mixture to dissolve. Choose your starting area, no larger than 1-2 square feet at a time, and pour on your bleach. Make sure the grout is thoroughly coated with the liquid; you can use a spray bottle if it makes it easier to do so. Leave the solution to work on the grout for 15-20 minutes. When the bleach has had time to set, you can begin scrubbing at the grout to work out the dirt and stains. Use a small brush, like a toothbrush, to rub the grout. You can add more bleach as you scrub to keep the area moist and expedite the cleaning process. Grab a dry towel and mop up the dirty bleach-water that pools on the tile when you finish scrubbing. If you get enough, wring the towel out between uses. Doing this, will make it easier to finish cleaning in the end. Repeat the process of applying bleach to the grout and scrubbing it out until you have finished all your tiled area. For particularly tough stains in the grout, you can apply the bleach for an hour or longer. The longer you let it soak, the easier it will be to scrub out the stain. Do a final mop-up of your tile before cleaning it again as you usually would. A final wipe-down will remove any remaining bleach and dirt, and leave your grout shiny and good-as-new.
Summary:
Wipe down your tile. Create your solution. Apply your cleaner. Begin scrubbing. Mop up the excess liquid. Continue washing your grout. Finish cleaning your tile.
