MAKE TRAVELING SOMEWHERE EXCITING YOUR NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTION Have you ever made a New Year’s resolution before? If you have, chances are you’ve tried to lose weight, advance your career, learn a new hobby or achieve some other such goal to reinvent yourself. All of these goals require a long-standing commitment and many fizzle out, leaving you feeling unsatisfied. Now’s the time to change things up. Instead of committing yourself to a long-term obligation, set a New Year’s resolution around fun and excitement, the kind you simply won’t find at home. Set your resolution to leave your same-old, same-old behind to travel and explore someplace new and exciting. Myrtle Beach can be that area for you and your family. With numerous attractions, it’s great for groups or quiet romantic getaways. Here are four reasons Myrtle Beach delivers immediate fun and long-lasting memories. * Something for everyone. No matter where you go, you should pick a destination that works for your entire group and allows everyone to enjoy the best vacation possible. Myrtle Beach, for example, has
numerous activities and attractions that deliver something for everyone. If you are coming with your family, plan a fun-filled vacation with visits to Ripley’s Aquarium, the Carolina Opry or Broadway at the Beach. And if your trip is more about celebrating a specific milestone, be it a birthday or anniversary, there’s no better place to do it than atop the SkyWheel. Soaring to the top of one of the nation’s tallest Ferris wheels will give you a whole new outlook on, well, everything. * Beyond the beach. The Myrtle Beach area is well known for its 60 miles of pristine beaches but there’s also plenty more to do beyond the beach. The area offers numerous outdoor activities and quiet spaces waiting to be explored, including Brookgreen Gardens, Huntington and Myrtle Beach State Parks - and the famous Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. * Chance to get off the beaten path. The Myrtle Beach area is more than just a single city center. It is actually composed of 14 distinct communities, each with their own unique offerings. Visiting these communities allows you to explore historic Conway, enjoy live music along Murrells Inlet, or swing
on a hammock along the Pawleys Island seashore. Take the time to step away from the crowds and immerse yourself in local activities for a true, one-of-a-kind experience. * Tremendous value. The new year is no time to introduce new debt, so find value in your travels whenever possible. Myrtle Beach offers lodging and attractions for every budget level, allowing you to plan the trip that matches your goals and your bottom line. Look for lodging and package
deals now and throughout the year. Start planning your resolution today There’s no time like the present to start a New Year’s resolution. Make yours to explore somewhere new and exciting this year. It’s a great way to start 2019 right, and one resolution you’ll look forward to keeping.

San Clemente News is an independent weekly newspaper published every Friday. We are not owned or operated by any of the big daily newspapers. The views and opinions expressed are those of the publisher and not any organization. No reproduction, in whole or in part is permitted without the express written permission of San Clemente News. Legal Advertising: The San Clemente News was adjudicated by the Orange County Superior Court as a newspaper of general circulation pursuant to Government Code 6000 case #06CC00655 on March 21, 2006 and as such is the appropriate newspaper to place legal and public notices for the South Orange County Judicial District and the Cities of Dana Point and San Clemente.
The Capistrano Unified School District (CUSD) will offer full-day kindergarten starting in the 20192020 school year at all elementary school campuses. Research indicates that students, teachers and parents benefit from a full-day kindergarten program. “Our mission as a school district is to prepare students to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world. Research indicates that providing students with a longer kindergarten school day will increase student performance and help ensure that students are not only prepared for first grade, but will have an excellent foundation for their entire K-12 experience,” said Superintendent Kirsten Vital. Full-day kindergarten was approved by CUSD and the Capistrano Unified Education Association (CUEA) in early 2018. During the 2018-2019 school year, CUSD implemented fullday kindergarten program at twelve
elementary schools. For seven of these schools, it was their first year of implementing a full day program. “Both CUSD and the Capistrano Unified Education Association (CUEA) recognize the benefits in partnering to enhance student academic and social achievement,” said Vital, who added, “We received positive response from our full day Kinder teachers and appreciate their feedback on strategies and challenges that need to be worked through.” A typical full-day program will run approximately six hours and will be consistent with the elementary start time at each school. “Research shows that a full-day program results in greater reading and math gains, more time for support of students atrisk, and indicates that 5-year-olds are more than ready for a longer day and do better in a setting that allows them time to learn and explore activities in depth,” said Brad Shearer, Assistant
Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction, Elementary. “Full-day kindergarten is attractive to our families because it helps eliminate transportation challenges for families with other elementary aged children and reduces child care expenses,” said Shearer. Each elementary school will hold parent information meetings, called “Kindergarten Roundups” in January and February. Dates are posted on the district and elementary school websites and will begin January 22, 2019. Learn more about our full-day kindergarten program at our upcoming CUSD Innovation Showcase on Wednesday, January 23, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. at Capistrano Valley High School, Mission Viejo. CUSD families and the community are invited to attend, especially families with children ages one and up! Visit capousd.org for more information.

OPERA STARLET LIV REDPATH TO PERFORM VALENTINE’S DAY CONCERT AT CASA ROMANTICA
Liv Redpath Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens, a nonprofit southern California cultural center, presents a special Valentine’s Day concert with a performance by opera soprano Liv Redpath in the historic Main Salon. Liv Redpath is a breakout starlet has a “youthful timbre and quicksilver bloom,” according to Parterre magazine. “It was as if the sky itself had been rendered into sound,” agrees Opera Magazine. The Harvard University alumna and Juilliard-trained vocalist, who is in her third season as a Domingo-ColburnStein Young Artist with Los Angeles Opera, has received awards from the Metropolitan Opera National Council Auditions, Palm Springs Opera Guild, The Loren L. Zachary Society, and the Licia Albanese Puccini Foundation. She has been cast in leading roles in several classical and new productions for the LA Opera as well as the Opera Theatre of St. Louis, the Santa Fe Opera, and the Opera Layafette. She was raised in Minneapolis, Missouri. This special evening will include Valentine’s Day-themed desserts, and champagne will be available at Casa Romantica’s cash donation bar. Although the event is bound to be a popular draw for couples seeking a novel, elegant Valentine’s Day experience, the event seeks to include music lovers of all ages. As part of Casa Romantica’s exciting new classical music youth participation program, a limited Page 6
number of $1 tickets are available for children ages 6-16 who wish to attend. [“Multiple studies have confirmed the correlation of improved cognitive thinking with playing and/ or listening to classical music as children,” says Casa Romantica Executive Director Berenika D. Palys. “That said, a common barrier preventing children from exploring classical music is apprehension on the part of their parents or caregivers – they worry that their child may not be entertained by it, and so they don’t take the monetary risk to expose their child. With the launch of this program, that risk is removed, and a consistently low price enables families to make a habit of attending classical music concerts together.”] If you go: Casa Classic: Liv Redpath, Soprano performs at Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens on Thursday, February 14 at 7:00 PM in the Main Salon. Doors open at 6:30 PM, and a donation bar will serve wine and non-alcoholic refreshments. Tickets are $25 for general admission, $20 for Casa members and $1 for children ages 6-16. Tickets are available online at CasaRomantica.org/Calendar, by telephone at (949) 498-2139, or in person at the administrative offices during public hours. The Casa Classic series is made possible with support from Fluidmaster. About Casa Romantica Cultural

HERE AND THERE IN THE WORLD OF WINE & FOOD
Happy wine drinker who love the desert in winter will gather at the 2nd annual Rancho Mirage Wine & Food Festival, Sat. Feb. 2. David Greer and Michele Graber were the merry bartenders for the “Big Dogs from Napa” holiday event at Meritage Wine Market in Encinitas. For those of you who are just joining our growing network of readers and viewers, every so often we sift through the in-box emails, texts and mail-ins for a number of eye catching bits of wine & food information that I love to pass along but are too short for a feature. We call it “Here and There in the Wine & Food World.”
BIG DOGS FROM NAPA SHOWCASE AT MERITAGE WINE MARKET
During the holiday season, Meritage Wine Market in Encinitas brought in the “Big Dog” wines from Napa for its regular Friday night wine soiree. 6 beauties were opened and the conversation flew about the merits of such luminaries as Cakebread, Caymus, Lewis and my favorite, Hourglass Estate 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon. ($195.) It’s a dark expression of black fruit, cassis and blackberry The wine bar presents, every Friday, tastings from 6 to 8pm as well as occasional classes and seminars with educator Michele Graber in a special cellar tasting room. Interested readers should visit meritagewinemarket. com.
WINE PREDICTIONS FOR 2019 Wine Spectator sent us over a roundup of Sommelier comments on wine trends and wines worth watching for, and wines to forget about. They answered: more bubbles, more New Zealand, more Napa Valley and better “natural” wine. More than a few wrote that there is an over supply of Rose’. Rose’s especially from California are over-produced with just about every winery making at least one. (Sounds
like what happened with Merlot!) Look for a Rose’ crash. Can’t come too soon for me. Out-of-the-way smaller locations in Italy, like Puglia in the south, are on the rise, since travel to the land of pasta, pizza and wine has increased. Minimal intervention in wines are more important. It makes no sense to tamper with wine’s natural flavors if the terroir, grapes and weather are the superior. More mature wines (aged) and more large bottle formats (magnums) are getting more popular as they become more affordable. Watch for nutrition information on wine labels, maybe not this year but they are coming. Spain and Portugal are ready to take off (similar to Italy, big hike in tourism). Great small producers from Tuscany, making Chianti Classico, are getting better and better, (he must have read my columns of 3 weeks ago), especially with 100% Sangiovese. People are becoming more adventurous with their wine choices, as restaurants and wine bars are also getting out of their comfort zone. So there it is….the future of wine in 2019. Go try something new!
DAVE FRASCHETTI, AND HIS CLASSIEST WINE FESTIVALS Dave Fraschetti is the lovable, big grinned producer of 2 wine-only annual festivals: The Rancho Mirage Wine & Food Festival, held in the
desert Saturday February 2 from 1 to 5pm now in its 2nd year; and the Vin Diego Wine & Food Festival at San Diego’s Waterfront Park from 3 to 7pm, Saturday April 13, now in its 7th year. Dave had just left the corporate world and without prior experience, wanted to put on a wine show, som6 6 years ago. He sat in my office, we drank wine and with his business sense and love of wine, I knew he could make it especially when he said “I want to put on a wine-only show….no beer, whiskey, or other hard stuff allowed. Winemakers want it that way and that’s what they’re gonna get.” He has top chefs come in plus lots of music for both of the shows. In the desert, he has special pre show dinners. For tickets, visit at ranchomiragewineandfoodfestival.

TWO YEARS OF AFFORDABLE COMMUNITY COLLEGE TUITION FUNDED IN GOVERNOR GAVIN NEWSOM’S BUDGET
Gavin Newsom Governor Gavin Newsom released his 2019-20 Budget Plan which proposes to fully fund two years of free community college in California at a cost of $40 million. These funds were proposed in the 2019-20 state budget, from the $200 million voterapproved Proposition 98 General Fund. This proposal extends the California College Promise to waive enrollment fees for first-time, full-time students for a second academic year. Assembly Bill 2 (AB 2), jointly authored by Assemblymembers Sharon QuirkSilva, Miguel Santiago, David Chiu, Kevin McCarty, Rob Bonta, Laura Freidman, Lorena Gonzalez, and Sabrina Cervantes was introduced to strengthen the California College
Promise policy. This budget proposal takes an important step towards guaranteeing a completely free community college experience for California students. “We must be sure that California’s students have access to higher education, yet high tuition costs deny students and their families the dream of obtaining a degree,” said Assemblywoman Sharon Quirk-Silva (D – Orange County). “Expanding the College Promise Program will give working class students, and their families, assurance that the cost of higher education, and the American Dream, will be within their reach. A reinvestment in our students is an investment in California; its educated students, skilled workforce, economy, and its future.” “Community college changed my life,” said Assemblymember Miguel Santiago (D-Los Angeles). “It gave me choices and opportunities and it opened doors. I know that free community college will change the lives of all Californians. To educate a community is to empower a community. I applaud the Governor’s budget proposal to fund two years of free community college. He has consistently shown leadership on this issue and I look forward to partnering with him in our efforts to strengthen the California College Promise with AB 2.” “This budget proposal shows the new Governor’s commitment to
working towards a world-class higher education system that is accessible to all,” said Assemblymember David Chiu (D-San Francisco). “Providing two years of free community college tuition will make it easier for students to receive a college education and encourage more students to enroll.” “California’s future economy will require about 2 million college students with new academic degrees by 2030,” said Assemblymember Kevin McCarty (D-Sacramento). “By providing two years of free community college, California will help more students graduate with less debt, and will grow the number of degree and certificated workers needed to compete in the global economy” “A college degree can open the door to a lifetime of opportunity, but for many Californians, the cost of tuition is an insurmountable barrier,” said Assemblymember Laura Friedman (D-Glendale). “With AB 2, we’re investing in our students and economy by creating pathways to sustainable careers.” “The cost of earning a college degree has become a heavy burden on an entire generation of Californians,” said Assemblymember Rob Bonta (D-Oakland). “Young people today worry about whether they’ll be able to pay for their dream of going to college without going into mountains of debt. It’s unfair and unsustainable. I’m proud to be joint-authoring AB 2 that would make college more affordable
and accessible. I’m pleased this effort is also a key priority for the Governor and look forward to working together to make this a reality. Not only will it help our students, it will also aid California in meeting its future workforce demands and keep our state the world’s innovation leader.” “California can’t pretend that the education needed to prepare our workforce for the jobs of tomorrow ends at the 12th grade. If it’s the state’s responsibility to offer a free public education, then we must offer no-cost access to our great community college system,” said Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez (D-San Diego). AB 2 was introduced on December 3, 2018 and will likely be heard in the Assembly Higher Education Committee in late February/early March. An important component of the California College Promise is to provide students information about financial aid and services available to support their success. Based on 2017-18 data, approximately 28,000 first-time, full-time students are projected to be eligible for a second year of free tuition, assuming their California Community College (CCC) meets the participation requirements of the program. To assist CCC with these efforts, the Budget proposes $5 million one-time General Fund for the Chancellor’s Office to expand outreach around the College Promise.
FINE HAND CRAFTED GAME TABLES & FURNITURE “The first time I saw Sean Woolsey’s ping pong table it was in his studio and I was struck by the craftsmanship and artistry. I feel the same way two years later. It is absolutely beautiful. The photos on his website don’t do it justice.” Fred Crim, Huntington Beach, CA At Sean Woolsey Studio we know that the only way to build really fine furniture is to use time-proven wood crafting techniques. Yet we use design technology and lasting coatings, glues, and other products of the 21st century. The creative process melds two eras yielding exquisite, select furnishings for home or office. Our standard is to not take short cuts used in mass production. We craft individual furniture pieces and game tables in the detail focused way of the past masters who have left a legacy. While a picture may be worth a thousand words there is nothing like seeing our pieces in person. Once you do, we believe it will be apparent there is a marked difference in quality and craftsmanship in a piece from Sean Woolsey Studio. So if you are considering acquiring something new and special to add to your home or office we welcome you to come see for yourself. You will walk away with a new appreciation of true craftsmanship.
Please call us today to set up a time to preview our works. 714-757-7115 Sean Woolsey

Create Change!” were PBS-So Cal’s Maria Hall-Brown and KTLA Channel 5’s Henry DiCarlo, with Jane Hansen and Jeanne Flint serving as event co-chairs. James and Suzanne Mellor, the 2017 Outstanding Philanthropists, served as honorary chairs, and the Judging Committee was headed by philanthropist Janet Ray and John Christiansen of Cornerstone Communications. Highlights included Outstanding Philanthropists Ling and Charlie Zhang’s thank-you remarks, when at the end, they both broke into a rousing rendition of “God Bless America,” which brought the entire room to its feet singing along. Outstanding Founder Michelle Wulfestieg brought tears to many guests’ eyes as she related how she had had a stroke at 11 years of age that disabled her for life. After she began a career in hospice at age 21, she wasn’t expected to survive her second stroke at 25. “Clearly,” she said, “I had more work to do.” She founded Southern California Hospice Foundation soon after to fill the gap of the needs of the terminally ill not covered by medical insurance. She is currently working on funding her Heavenly Home Project to create a loving home where hospice can be provided for those who have nowhere else to go. “A place where dignity and compassion reigns,’ she said. Lauren Best, the Outstanding Youth honoree, was honored for her work with special needs students at her high school and through Girl Scouts, where she founded one of the only troops for students with special needs in Southern California. She says, “I was able to address the social isolation experienced by students with special needs, and I realized that even as a young person, I have the ability to make the community a better place.” Best was presented $2,500 from AFP OC members by the organization’s president Elissa Oransky to be designated to two charities of the honoree’s choice. She chose Sonora High School’s Best Buds Club and Girl Scouts of Orange County. She was also presented a $1,000 check for her continuing development and education from the AFP-OC Scholarship Fund. The remaining awards included the Legacy Award, presented to the Ueberroth Family Foundation, represented by Ginny and Peter Ueberroth and their daughter Vicki Booth; Outstanding Volunteer Fundraiser, Joe Hanauer; Outstanding Philanthropic Group, Orange County Bar Association Charitable Fund, represented by its President Michael Baroni and CEO/Executive Director Trudy Levindofske; Outstanding Small Business, Shulman Hodges & Bastain, represented by its partners Len Shulman, Ron Hodges and Jim Bastian; Outstanding Mid-Size Business, Service Champions Heating & Air Conditioning, represented by its Founder/Owner Leland Smith; and Outstanding Large Corporation, Bank of America, Orange represented by County Market President Allen Staff. All the honorees were presented with a beautifully crafted hand-blown glass heart sculpture, created by master glassblower John Barber of Laguna Beach. The effort netted $80,000 for the support of the ethical advancement of philanthropy in the community by the Orange County Chapter of AFP. National Philanthropy Day Orange County honors those who have demonstrated philanthropy and enhanced their communities and the world. Each year, more than 100 Association of Fundraising Professionals chapters throughout the US and Canada honor the philanthropic efforts of individuals, businesses and groups.

FRANK SINATRA’S MALIBU BEACH HOUSE ON THE MARKET!
Filled with family and close Hollywood friends, the house that Frank and Barbara Sinatra built in the early 1990s on Broad Beach in Malibu is now on the market for the first time. The home has been listed for $12.9 million. Of all the beautiful homes and retreats Sinatra owned from coast to coast, it seemed that he found his true happy place when he and Barbara visited their good friends Steve and Eydie Gorme in Malibu. Enthralled with the peacefulness of the Pacific, the white-sand beach and the prospect of having close friends for neighbors, the couple bought a lot and built their home in 1992. In addition to it being a restful beach home for Frank, who was still touring until shortly before his death at age 82, they filled the home with family and the most famous names in show business. In her book, Lady Blue Eyes: My Life With Frank, Barbara fondly describes their life in the beach house and their poker games where jokes and laughter flowed as fast as
Page 14
the food and drinks. Although the couple also owned homes in Palm Springs and Los Angeles, this was where they chose to renew their vows in 1996 with friends watching from the dunes and speeches from Don Rickles and Bob Newhart. With Barbara’s death in 2017, her son from a former marriage has put the property on the market. Designed by architect-to-the-stars Ted Grenzbach, the house sits safely back from the waves nestled in lush lawn and mature landscaping with dunes framing the beach entrance. Its indoor-outdoor living plan affords an open and spacious floor plan for entertaining and still invites an intimate gathering in front of the oversized fireplace with a brandy on chilly evenings. Bright and white and filled with sunlight, the interior is the perfect foil for the colorful Pacific sunsets. With 40 feet of beach frontage, the two-story, 5,800-squarefoot house has seven bedrooms and nine baths. The large, unusually well-equipped master suite consists
The San Clemente News
of a lounge, fireplace, sauna and its own hair salon. In addition to beachformal living and dining areas, there is also a wood-beamed family room and a wet bar in the dining area which accommodates both indoor and outdoor entertaining. Possibly his all time favorite residence, which he built at age 75 and enjoyed with wife, family and
showbiz friends, Frank Sinatra’s Malibu beach house is for sale, asking $12.9 million. Listing agents are Leonard Rabinowitz and Jack Friedkin of Hilton & Hyland and Chris Cortazzo of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage.

CAN’T KEEP A RESOLUTION? OUTSIDE SUPPORT CAN HELP Holiday celebrations are a traditional way to cap off the year, but once the ball drops it’s time to usher in a new beginning with New Year’s resolutions. Each year, millions of Americans resolve to get in better shape and become healthier, better versions of themselves. But, unfortunately the vast majority don’t meet their goals. Less than a quarter of 1,000 people surveyed by YMCA of the USA kept their resolution in 2014. An overwhelming 71 percent said they tried but fell short, and 40 percent confessed that they made it through only a couple weeks or months. However, there’s hope for the coming year. One-third of survey respondents who plan to make a resolution in 2015 believe they’ll stick to it and reach their goals, with more than half believing that encouragement from others will keep them committed. Finding a supportive community can be beneficial in keeping resolutions on track. Organizations like your local Y offer a place to work out as well as opportunities to connect with others and give back to the community, which
can help foster more commitment to keeping resolutions. A positive outlook doesn’t always translate to action unless you set manageable goals and lean on the support of your health and wellness communities. Here are some tips to make a healthy New Year’s resolution stick: Start small. Set attainable resolutions. For example, if your goal is to exercise more frequently in the new year, don’t schedule seven days a week at the gym. Start with a reasonable three days a week. If you’d like to eat healthier, try replacing desserts with other foods you enjoy, such as fruit or yogurt. Take it one step at a time. Making a New Year’s resolution doesn’t require you to reassess every little detail of your life. Replacing unhealthy behaviors with healthy ones takes time, so don’t become overwhelmed. Work to change one behavior at a time, and then go from there. Choose a facility that focuses on a holistic approach to health. When it comes to adding healthy behaviors - like working out - to your lifestyle, finding a facility that
keeps you motivated is critical to maintaining your exercise routine. Before committing to a membership, take a tour of local gyms to find the best fit for you. Your facility should not be just a gym, but a community organization that offers more health, more hope and more opportunity. Establish a little friendly competition. More than half of the Y survey respondents felt a little “healthy competition” when friends encouraged them to be even more committed to keeping their New Year’s resolutions. Share your experiences with support groups - friends, family, fellow workout class members or close colleagues. Talking about your
struggles and successes will make your goals more obtainable and less intimidating. Set New Year ’s goals with someone you love. It’s easier to stick to your resolutions if you have a partner working toward similar goals. More than three-fourths of survey respondents indicated that they would set the same resolution for a member of their immediate family. Team up with a family member to set your 2015 goals, and establish a game plan that is dedicated to achieving them. For more information on goalsetting for the new year, visit www. ymca.net/healthy-living.

QUARTER PAGE COLOR This month I have terrific low prices on quarter page full color ad packages. Plus you can choose to either pre pay or pay as you go. But remember these rates apply only if you order this month. Smart business owners and marketing experts agree that the best advertising program is one which brings you clients and customers. Savvy business managers are wise to be concerned about high volume publications that don’t deliver a strong local audience that would generate immediate income for your business. Major daily newspapers like the Times and the Register reach nearly a million readers, but do you really need to pay their high prices to reach your customers in San Clemente, Talega, Dana Point? While some glossy monthly magazines are stylish, their costly rates may not be realistic compared to choosing a highly effective newspaper like these reasonably priced local newspapers which are received by your most likely preferred customers of high income homeowners. This advertising costs you far less money. These five local newspapers are attractive, effective and affordable. Let’s talk today!

Virtually everyone struggles with a lack of self-confidence at some point in their lives and it’s perfectly normal to feel unsure of yourself in certain situations. However, if you find a lack of confidence is holding you back from fully enjoying your personal life, or achieving your professional goals, it may be time to take action. “There are actually steps you can take to rebuild your confidence, even when you’re struggling to feel self-assured,” says Susie Moore, a motivational speaker, best-selling author and life coach. “Confidence is a real-life super power that affects every aspect of your life, from your relationships to your career and social life, but it’s also more attainable than you think.” Moore shares tips on how you can be your most confident self and live a fulfilled, unconditional life: * Tap the power of words and positive thinking by starting every day with an uplifting mantra. Positive self-talk such as “I am loveable. I am worthy. I am enough” can help boost confidence levels. Make a conscious decision to be more kind and gentle with yourself every day. * Practice a strong pose and smile to help enhance your sense

of confidence. Confidence is all about attitude. Making these small physical changes can immediately impact how self-assured you feel in any situation. * Make self-care non-negotiable. Take time to listen to your body and give it what it needs to help you feel confident. For example, millions of men and women experience bladder leakage, but products like Depend FIT-FLEX Underwear, which are designed to move with your body while offering trusted protection, can help you think less about leaks. That’s energy you can devote to better things, like reconnecting with the people and parts of your life you’ve been missing. * Keep your mind and body active. Being busy leaves you little time to overthink, so fill your life with activities you enjoy. Yoga, visiting friends, reading, cooking, going for walks or even organizing your closet all count! * Speak with intention. The way you talk impacts your mood, your confidence and how other people perceive you. When you use verbiage like “I’ll try” or “I don’t think I can,” you’re really allowing yourself permission to feel unconfident.

Instead, build confidence and commitment with statements like “I will” and “I know I can.” * Don’t overcomplicate things or allow yourself to be distracted by unimportant things. Focus on your daily objectives and long-term goals by cultivating a clear and positive vision of how you want your life to be. * Listen to, but don’t heed negative opinions of others. Your positive attitude and vision are more important than anyone else’s negative thoughts. * Be sure to reserve time and energy for your own priorities. Busy

lives mean we can get bogged down with commitments to others, and while those things are important, it’s vital to take care of yourself and your own priorities first. Build your schedule around the time you need for your own goals and let everything else fit in around that. “Confidence is an almost-magical quality that can help you lead your best, most fulfilled life and - more importantly - it’s in your grasp!” Moore says.
