Feel confident

Dare to let go. People, interests, experience. All this gives confidence: when you say goodbye to what you no longer need, irrelevant, you begin to look forward to new perspectives and new changes in life. Do not gossip, discuss or judge others. Do not look for flaws in others - work on your own, only then you can raise your self-esteem. Don't waste time discussing someone else's life. Focus on yourself. It will be a smarter investment of time and energy. Respond appropriately to failures and mistakes. Yes, it's upsetting, yes, it's unsettling. But this is not a reason to give up, give up and doubt yourself. Try again and again. Everything that happens helps to reconsider views, form an opinion, learn new things and, perhaps, turn on a really right path. Stop being afraid of mistakes - if they happen, then this is a sign that something in your life needs to be changed for the better. When you love yourself, you attract more. You let the world around you know that you deserve the best by treating yourself well. It all starts with how you feel about yourself. Feel worthy. Feel special. Feel like you deserve better.

How to memorize information quickly?

Write information that you need to remember. Otherwise, the brain practically does not work and it will be very difficult to remember.

When you're just reading text to learn, your prefrontal cortex barely works. Such memorization of the text can be called cramming.

Biomarkers indicating the risk of suicide have been found

To do this, experts analyzed blood and brain samples of people who committed suicide, as well as people who died in other circumstances.

A method has been developed to recycle plastic in a week

In the course of the work, scientists used machine learning to create the FAST-PETase enzyme, which can break down molecules of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), which accounts for 12 percent of the world's waste. The enzyme was obtained using artificial intelligence and machine learning. The process of destruction of plastic with the help of this substance occurs in a week at a temperature of 40 to 50 degrees Celsius.

The resulting material can then be repolymerized - assembled into virgin plastic - and converted into other products.
