Summarize the following:
People may react initially to physical attractiveness, but studies have found that they will re-evaluate their perception of that attractiveness based on personality traits.  Listen to people when they talk. You don't have to be a doormat to listen to others and people will notice that you have taken an interest in their words. Kindness is one of the most important traits in rating attractiveness according to Yale psychologist, Paul Bloom. This means helping others out when they need it and not being judgmental about others (see steps above). Remember that beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. Different cultural groups have different beauty norms. The obsession with thin being pretty only really began in the 1960s. Remember that the people in magazines and movies and t.v. shows have a whole army of hairstylists, make-up artists, lighting, and photoshop. Of course you don't look like them. They don't even look like them.

summary: Be attractive by being kind and respectful and pleasant. Decide how you define attractiveness.

It can be helpful to know what kind of scents bother you. If a particular brand of perfume or laundry detergent causes an adverse reaction, you should know so you can avoid that brand in the future. Keep a journal chronicling when and where you have a bad reaction to a smell.  It may be hard to identify the precise trigger every time, but try to notice when symptoms arise. Jot down any probable cause, from scents from outdoors to household products. Take your journal with you to work or social events. Such places can sometimes be ripe with unwanted scents that may trigger a reaction. Keeping your journal in a "notes" section on your smartphone can make it easy to access it. There are certain events where you may be exposed to a lot of unwanted scents. During formal parties, for example, many people may be wearing perfumes or colognes. Prepare as much as you can before these events. If you find such events are particularly harsh on your sensitivity, consider sitting them out.  If you're on any medications that help with your sensitivity, bring these to parties. You may want to stay close any open windows during these kinds of events. Try occasionally stepping outside if a smell is bothering you. One of the best means to minimize reactions is to keep your exposure low. This is especially important if your reactions are intense. Try to stay away from scents that bother you.  Avoid stores where there are heavy odors, such as department stores that use a lot of chemical cleaners. If you notice a product you use at home, like a cleaner, is bothering your sensitivity, cease use immediately. Ask your household members to minimize their own use of scented products. . Scent sensitivity is sometimes caused by an allergic reaction. If your body is in a weakened state due to illness, your allergies will be more acute. It's a good idea to get a flu shot during cold and flu season. Talk to your doctor before getting a flu shot to make sure the shot is safe for you given your medical history and any existing medical conditions. A fan or an air purifier may help rid your home of unwanted scents. You can purchase such items online or at a local department store. See if symptoms improve by placing some fans and air purifiers in your home. If you suffer from scent sensitivity, it's a good idea to talk to a doctor. Scent sensitivity is not just an inconvenience. It's a legitimate medical condition. It's well-documented that many people react with allergic reactions such as rashes in response to certain fragrance. While most people must have direct physical contact with a fragrance containing substance, some people's scent sensitivity is so severe they may break out into rashes just from inhaling a smell.  Part of your medical evaluation may include blood work, urinalysis, pulmonary function testing, and evaluation for mood disorders (such as depression and/or anxiety). A simple patch test can be used to diagnose an allergy to a specific scent. Patches containing a potential irritant will be placed on your skin. After 48 hours, your doctor will remove such patches and examine your skin for a reaction. If you do have an allergy, your doctor can help you come up with an action plan for treatment. They may recommend medications or lifestyle changes that help you cope with scent sensitivity.

summary: Track your triggers. Be prepared for events with a lot of scents. Try to minimize your exposure as much as you can. Get a flu shot Invest in an air purifier or a fan. Seek a doctor's input.

In order to have a well-trained guard dog, you will need to start socializing your German shepherd from a young age.  Puppies are more receptive to new things until they are about 18 weeks old. During this time, the things that they see, hear, and smell are less frightening. It is important to make sure that your German shepherd puppy is well-socialized during this time so that he will confident rather than anxious or fearful. To socialize your puppy, make sure that you expose the puppy to all sorts of different situations. Walk him past schools when kids are around, walk beside busy roads, take him out in the rain to see people with umbrellas, expose him to a vacuum cleaner and hair dryer, and introduce him to lots of other types of dogs and people. Try to make the experiences as wide and varied as you can. To teach your German shepherd to be a guard dog, he will need to be well-behaved and you will need to train with him every day. The best way to go about this is to find a good trainer or obedience course to help you. Look for a dog trainer or training class in your area that uses modern, well-informed methods of training based on either clicker training or reward-based training.   Clicker training is a method of training that marks positive behavior with a clicking sound. Trainers who use this method also use rewards such as treats and praise, but the clicker helps to mark good behavior. Reward-based training uses praise, treats, and other things that will motivate your dog to follow your commands. Do not use old-fashioned methods of dominating a dog, such as alpha-rolls or scruffing techniques. These methods are outdated and ineffective. Before your German shepherd can become a guard dog he needs to learn how to listen and respond to your commands. That is why it is a good idea to start with basic training commands such as sit, stay, and come back. Once your German shepherd has mastered basic commands, he will be ready to take on more challenging ones. Make sure your dog is well cared for, fed good quality food, and receives plenty of exercise. You want the dog to be fit and mentally stimulated. A bored, out of condition dog is more likely to overreact in the face of an intruder, which may lead to one of your friends or neighbors getting injured. Train your dog daily, ideally in two to three sessions a day. Each session varies in length depending on the attention span of the individual dog, but German shepherds are often capable of being trained for 20 minutes at a time. Your German shepherd will enjoy training more if it always ends with a treat and some praise. If your German shepherd starts to make mistakes, bring the lesson to a close with a simple command that you know the dog is capable of doing. That way you will be able to reward him and end the session on a positive note.
summary: Socialize your German shepherd when he is a puppy. Find a dog trainer or obedience course. Teach your German shepherd to follow basic commands. Take good care of your German shepherd. Develop a regular training routine. End each training session on a positive note.
