If you're not super confident with your knife skills, and pitting an avocado with a knife sounds scary to you, you may want to invest in an avocado slicer/pitter. They take all the stress out of avocados and basically do the work for you.

Legos are one of those toys that are a ton of fun, but a pain to keep track of. With so many little pieces of varying shapes, sizes and colors, it’s no wonder that so many pieces get lost in your home. While building lego sets, kids usually recognize the pieces by size and color. An easy way to make this process easier for them is by sorting legos into containers categorized by color.

The best way to encourage someone to keep trying is to appreciate the efforts they have put in so far, and the progress they made, regardless of how small it is.

It’s also helpful if you praise them for going the extra mile, even if they failed.

Basically, this appreciation works as positive reinforcement. The person is more likely to be motivated to keep working on something if they receive appreciation for their efforts.

Stress causes your body to release a hormone that makes you gain weight and lose muscle. Do all you can (exercise, meditate, get enough sleep, etc.) to de-stress so you don’t end up putting on weight.

The most helpful tool here is exercise. Exercise not only helps with the process of toning your body, but it also releases endorphins which counter the hormones produced because of stress, which in turn helps you tone your body.
