article: This won't be necessary for all repairs, but it can be really helpful for items that need to be fixed while held at an angle. Nestle the broken pottery piece into the sand so that the cracked section is facing up. This enables you to use both hands to make the repairs.  If you don't have sand, you can also use rice to the same effect. You could also use a large pot, a shallow serving dish, or something similar to hold the sand as long as it's deep enough to fully support the pottery. the edges of the chipped area to smooth ragged edges. Use fine sandpaper on both the edges of the broken-off piece and the main piece of pottery. Use a back and forth motion with light pressure until the edges are smooth. If you're fixing a crack rather than a full break, you don't need to worry about sanding the piece at this point. Wipe down the edges both from the main piece of pottery and from the broken-off piece. Let them air dry completely afterwards before moving on to the next step. This will ultimately help the adhesive do its job better as there won't be any dirt in the way. Squeeze the epoxy onto a non-porous disposable surface, like a thin sheet of plastic, and use a wooden or plastic stick to mix together the 2 components as quickly as possible. It'll start to harden after 3 to 4 minutes, so you need to work fast.  Some 2-part epoxies come in a container with a syringe that will distribute both parts equally for you. If yours doesn't come with that, disperse each part of the epoxy in lines so that you can gauge by eye that the 2 components are equal. Avoid using superglue for repairs. Superglue is very thin, and while it's strong, it won't protect your pottery from future breakages along the same cracks as well as epoxy will. Use the wooden or plastic stick to line the edges of the piece of pottery as well as the cracked piece with epoxy. Don't worry about using too much or if it is going over the edges—you'll be able to remove that excess epoxy later on. If you're working with a crack rather than a break, use a toothpick to apply the epoxy to the crack. Push the epoxy into the crack as far as you can, then squeeze the piece together so the crack adheres back together. It's totally okay if epoxy squeezes out around the edges. Get it in line as perfectly as you can and hold it in place for about 30 seconds or as long as the epoxy directions instruct.  If you're worried about getting the adhesive onto your hands, wear a pair of rubber gloves while you work. If there is more than one piece to reattach, do one at a time rather than trying to do them all at once. If the pieces aren't staying together well because of the position of the pottery, use a small piece of modeling clay to pinch the edges together. It'll come right off once the piece has fully dried. You can use a razor blade or a sharp, flat-edged knife. Simply run the blade along the surface of the piece of pottery and slice off any sections of raised dried epoxy. Most fast-acting epoxies take about 20 minutes to fully set, but always follow the instructions for whatever brand you're using. Take 220-grit sandpaper and rub it very lightly over the sealed cracks on your piece of pottery. This will just finish the process so that there are absolutely no bumps or imperfections on your piece. To double-check the surface run your thumb over the sealed cracks. The sensitivity in your finger should allow you to easily feel if there are more sections that need to be sanded. You may not want to or need to do this since the epoxy dries clear, but if you think the cracks are too visible, use acrylic paint to cover those lines. Mix your colors carefully to get as close a match to the original color as possible. You can also spray an acrylic gloss over the repaired area if the rest of the piece is shiny and you want the crack lines to be less noticeable.

article: Take the worries you've identified as being out of your control and go through each one. Ask yourself what evidence there is to support this worry coming to pass.  For instance, if you worry about getting fired from your job, question the evidence that supports your concern. Have you gotten several write-ups? Are you a liability to your employer? Has your employer threatened to fire you? If you answered “no" to those questions, then there's no evidence to support this worry. You can empower yourself to cope with worries that are out of your control by thinking through how you would respond if they happened. Thinking about the worst-case can help you see that what you're worried about isn't as bad as it seems. Spend just a few minutes thinking through a few worst-case scenarios—don't go overboard or spend too much time on this.  Let's say the worst-case scenario happened and you were fired from your job. Would being fired devastate you or would you be secretly relieved? Could you get a new job or possibly pursue a new career path? Would this outcome have disastrous effects that you could not handle? Getting fired can certainly be a terrible outcome, but, by doing this exercise, you'll likely realize that it wouldn't be the end of you. Pinpoint the action steps you'd need to take if your worst-case scenario happened and then prepare accordingly. Taking even a little action towards the concerns that are not entirely within your control could help minimize your worries and help you feel more empowered.  For instance, if you're worried about losing your job and that's out of your control, set aside an emergency fund to help you pay your bills while you hunt for a new job. If you're worried about developing a health condition that runs in your family, visit the doctor regularly, eat well, and exercise more often. Uncertainty can be frightening, but it can also be exhilarating if you change your perspective. Just think: when you don't know what will happen, that means anything could happen—which can be a good thing, too. You might find that embracing your lack of control opens you up to become more creative and take more risks. No matter how much you worry, it won't change the fact that everything is not in your control.

Because white spots are also an indication of enamel damage and early stages of tooth decay or can also be produced by fluoride ingestion at an early age (childhood fluorosis), preventing these spots from forming is almost always preventable with regular brushing and flossing. Improving your dental hygiene habits will  reduce the likelihood of getting white spots in the future.  Some tips to help you have great oral hygiene habits include:  Always brush your teeth after waking up, after eating, and before going to bed. Check the fluoride content of your toothpaste. You need enough fluoride to reduce acid and balance out your mouth's pH levels, but you don’t want to have so much fluoride that it is damaging.  Try to aim for amounts of fluoride between 1,000 and 1,500 ppm unless your dentist says otherwise. Floss every night.  If you have difficulty using standard floss, try using a pre-threaded flosser, instead. Visit the dentist every six months. Good care at home can prevent most problems, but a dentist can diagnose early signs of plaque buildup and other related issues. Certain foods can damage tooth enamel and make the mouth acidic and dry, allowing more bacteria to grow as a result.  This can damage the enamel on your teeth and allow harmful bacteria to infiltrate the pores of your teeth, leeching nutrients and minerals from the teeth and causing white spots.  Some tips to reduce your intake of these products include:  Avoid sugary drinks, especially carbonated drinks like soda.  Also be wary of candy and products that contain artificial sweeteners. If you need to sweeten something, opt for natural alternatives like honey or maple syrup, and use as little as possible. If you do consume anything that is high in sugar or carbohydrates, be sure to rinse your mouth with water immediately, then brush after about 30 minutes. In addition to remineralizing your teeth with home remedies or in-office professional treatments, another great way to prevent white spots is to eat foods that are heavy in teeth strengthening minerals.   By consuming vitamin D- and calcium-rich foods like milk, cheese, and yogurt, your teeth and body will absorb nutrients that help make your teeth strong and prevent white spots. Also look for foods that are high in magnesium, like dark leafy greens, nuts, seeds, fish, soybeans, and avocado, because magnesium helps the body absorb and retain more calcium. Staying hydrated helps your body perform at its best and it may also help prevent white spots. When your mouth is dry, the lack of saliva throws off the pH balance in your mouth and allows bacteria to grow and attack your teeth with their acid.    Try to drink at least eight 8-oz (250-mL) glasses of water daily.  Avoid hydrating with liquids like fruit juice, soda, or other beverages.  If you do drink one of these damaging liquids, be sure to rinse your mouth with water or brush your teeth afterward.  Add a few drops of lemon juice which can help promote saliva flow. Two of the most damaging substances you can introduce to your mouth are tobacco and caffeine.  Caffeine is extremely acidic and damages the enamel on your teeth, allowing bacteria to enter the pores of your teeth and cause white spots and other decay.  Smoking and chewing tobacco increase plaque and tartar build-up on your teeth, which can cause more damaged areas and white spot formation. Tobacco and caffeine will also stain your teeth, and any white spots you currently have will only appear more pronounced against the yellowing enamel.
