In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Playing it cool doesn’t mean keeping a cool distance. On the contrary, whenever you see her, you should look her in the eye and give her a big smile. After all, you like her and she knows it, so why not show her that you’re happy to see her by flashing a big smile whenever you see her. Try not to be creepy by smiling for too long or staring at her. A little bit of small talk is a great way to get used to talking to her so you’re not so nervous around her. It also shows that you’re interested in hearing her talk about her problems as well, which is an important part of a relationship.  Ask her simple things like, “Hey, how’s it going?” or “How are you doing today?” If she seems upset, you could ask her something like, “Everything okay?” Don’t be too pushy, though. If she doesn’t respond or she replies with a short, one-word answer like, “fine,” then back off. Show her that you’re comfortable being around her by breaking the tension with some humor. If you’re in a meeting or a class together, make a joke about something funny that happens or quote a funny line from a movie that you enjoy.  Try making silly jokes. Ask her, “What’s brown and sticky?” When she says, “What?” say, “A stick!” Don’t tease her too much or make a joke at her expense or it could push her away. Try not to patronize her by using jokes or quoting movies that you know that she likes. Be genuine and show her your sense of humor. Ask her about her interests and hobbies. Talk to her about her favorite music, what movies she likes, or what food she loves to eat. You may share common interests that can bring you closer together.  Be excited when you have something in common. If she says that her favorite band is The Black Keys, and they’re your favorite band, too, then get excited and say, “I love them, too!” Even if you don’t have anything in common, the only way to find that out is to talk to her. Make an effort to express interest in her passions, even if they’re unfamiliar to you. Be honest about your interests so she can learn more about you as well. If you know her from school, work, or a business that you frequent, try to hang out with her in a different setting. Changing the scenery can open up different topics of conversation and allow you to talk more openly with her. For example, if you know her because she works at a place that you visit often, she may have to behave a certain way because you are a customer. Don’t change your behavior because you think it will impress her. It will only stress you out and it will give her the wrong idea of who you are as a person. She may also be able to see right through it and will see you as fake. For example, if she mentions that she likes a certain band and you haven’t heard of them but you tell her that they’re your favorite too, you’re setting yourself up for failure. If she asks you what your favorite song is or what you like about them, the ruse will fall apart.
Summary: Smile warmly when you see her. Ask her about her day. Try making a few jokes with her. Talk to her about the things that she’s in to. Spend time with her in a different context so you can get to know her. Be yourself when you interact with her.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: . Meditation is one of the best ways to master your emotions. Through meditation and practicing mindfulness, you learn to acknowledge your emotions, accept them and let them go. Though some people manage to release emotional attachments on command, this is generally only attained after practicing meditation for a long time and maintaining a daily practice.  Find a quiet place where you won't be disturbed and assume a comfortable position that allows you to breathe deeply. You can practice a simple meditation by focusing on your breath. Inhale through your nose and breathe into your belly; exhale from your belly through your nose. While breathing, focus on your breath as it moves through your body. Scan your body with your awareness from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet. Just be aware of your sensations. Is it hot or cold? Can you feel the seat/floor below you? Just notice. Imagine something that you associate with a peaceful feeling, and concentrate on that image in your mind. Every time your mind wanders, acknowledge, accept the thoughts and let them go. Bring the focus back to your visualization.  If any thoughts or emotions come up, simply acknowledge them. Do not try to change or fix them: just accept them. Then let them go and continue to breathe deeply. A good meditation session can take anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes or longer if desired. Once you have reached your "place," you'll notice the shift in your mood, thoughts and behaviors. Once you're good at it, you can use it on the fly in situations that challenge your emotional stability, and you'll be able to immediately regain your composure. Many issues in life simply don't have a pure, single answer, and you can't think in such black and white terms. When you're wrong, make amends or apologize to avoid sinking into all-consuming feelings of guilt or regret. Your life should have no room for negative emotions. They don't do you any good! No matter how angry, frustrated or worried you are, do not act upon such emotions until you have taken the time to carefully review the situation. Place yourself in a position to think clearly and see the consequences of your actions. If there's even the slightest possibility you might act differently if you sleep on it, do so.  Think before you speak. Often emotions cause us to blurt out a response that doesn't reflect well on us. Take your time and use wisdom. If you're dying to say something before thinking it through, remember the adage that it is better not to be heard and to have people think you're not so bright, than to open your mouth and confirm it. If a colleague criticizes your work, refrain from writing her an angry email or saying something curt to her while you're angry. Rather, take some time to figure out whether her criticism is valid, whether you can improve your work thanks to her input or whether you need to ask her to change the tone in which she delivers criticism to be more professional. If you recognize a situation that might rile you up, take control of the reigns as quickly as you can. Leave the situation, somehow tune out, or steer it in a different direction. Only you know what would work for you. But to do this, you need to know you, your triggers, and your go-to reactions. So study up on the only thing you have access to 24/7. You. This will only be easy if you strive to help yourself out! So instead of facing a situation and wondering why the heck you can't seem to get a grip on it, do the work. Breathe. Distract yourself. Heck, reread this article. Ask others how they disengage. Habits take practice, not miracles. Practice emotionless habits and sooner or later, you'll be emotionless. Though you may not notice it until someone points it out!
Summary:
Practice meditation Use visualization during meditation. Admit when you're wrong. Avoid self-sabotaging behavior. Know yourself.
