How to Overcome Winter Depression (with light-therapy)

1. You could go to a therapist and take some antidepressants but that's the chemical way of solving the problem, not advised.
2.Light therapy(the one which doctor recommends the most) means exposing yourself to UV lights for about 10-15 minutes and it helps. But it's for really depressed people.
3. You can improve your daily living environment by installing full-spectral light bulb in the place you spend most of your time, so you're constantly exposed to the helpful light's effect.
4. Generally idea is to make you're life brighter so you're thoughts wouldn't be clouded by the dark winter.
5. If it doesn't help, go visit your doctor :)

How to finesse a pool shot

1. Use a chalk. The more often the better. It will let you strike the cue ball smoothly without any friction.
2. While billiards is/supposed to be a gentlemen game, act like a gentleman because the pool table is a lady. Slamming is good only for the opening breaking. In every other shot put as much delicacy and finesse as you can. You just want to get the ball into the pocket, wrecking your “lady” is not necessary…
3. Think of the future and plan every single move. The next one depends on what you’ve done previously. That kind of game plan leaves you with great both attacking and defending opportunities.
4. Friction once again- be careful with beverages. Don’t hold them in the same hand you’re making a bridge with. Any moisture on a bridge won’t let you move your cue properly and in consequence strike the cue ball clearly.

Proper positioning at the piano

-sit on at about the last half of bench, the forward half

-position yourself towards the end of a bench on a comfortable distance (so that you can reach the notes, play them comfortably and with power and reach the pedals without having to bend forward, raise shoulders or anything). Just stick your fist out and touch the back board against the end of the notes (that’s about the proper distance for most people).

-you should have your back up straight (you gain power not just from fingers or wrists but from whole arm and shoulders)

-let your hands be a little bit curved when they are put out (round shapes have more power)

-round fingers, rounded fingers have more control (How rounded your fingers should be? Grip tennis ball in your hand. They should be very round. When your fingers are rounded they have same length, are a line, so you can play any notes you want.)
