INSPIRE

START FRESH Achieve your dreams

Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see. C. S. Lewis

Start by doing what’s necessary; then do what’s possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible. Francis of Assisi If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away. Henry David Thoreau Believe you can and you’re halfway there. Theodore Roosevelt

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. Steve Jobs

Most of us have far more courage than we ever dreamed we possessed. Dale Carnegie

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it. Jules Renard

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. John F. Kennedy Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection we can catch excellence. Vince Lombardi

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present. Jim Rohn

Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared. Buddha

You must do the things you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt

Once we believe in ourselves, we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight, or any experience that reveals the human spirit. e. e. cummings

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. Maya Angelou

LOVE

STRONGER TOGETHER Resolutions couples should make

This time of year, it’s natural to focus inward, thinking about healthy new habits, self-improvement and professional advancement. Consider channeling part of that New Year’s spirit into your bond with your partner, resolving to not just spend more time together—but to do it all better, with these easy tips for improving a relationship at any age or stage.

Ask more questions

And pay attention to the answers. Resolving to be more inquisitive helps both of you: You become more engaged (“Why was that meeting so stressful?” “How could you make that project a little more fun?”), and the give-and-take pushes you to be thoughtful about your own day.

Turn complaints into questions

Before you blurt out exactly what’s on your mind—“You golf so much, I never see you!”—think about your intent. What are you trying to say? In this case, say you want to spend more down time with your partner. Then put yourself in his shoes. Rather than hearing a complaint, wouldn’t you rather hear, “I miss you! I’ve been feeling lonely.” He may not immediately solve the problem of golfing too much, but asking him more about the situation starts a conversation.

Talk a little less, and touch more

Sound counterintuitive? The thing is, for couples that have a hard time communicating their emotions, a big hug can go a long way. Resolve to hold hands every time you watch TV or hug each other every morning or evening—or both.

Take a break mid-fight to say “I Love You”

It might be the last thing on your mind, but when things get heated, try to get those words out. Instead of ratcheting up emotion, you can diffuse it. Those words remind you both of the big picture. And in the cool-down period afterward, you know everything’s going to be good.

Compliment more than you nag

Try to keep feedback of all sorts balanced. Better yet, keep things more heavily weighted in the positive. It’s easy, especially as the years go by, to forget to thank your partner for the little things he’s always done. If you catch yourself doling out criticism, remind yourself to verbalize compliments and appreciation as well.

Let it go

In every committed relationship, there are things one party might like—no, love—to change. Maybe it makes you crazy that your husband leaves his water glass on the table or leaves the lights on. Let it go. To gain a little perspective, imagine what your life would be like if the water glass wasn’t there (and neither is he). When you think of it like that, those annoying little things aren’t that hard to let go.

YOU

As you dive into 2022, try these tips to make your life more manageable.

Take the stairs

LIVE BETTER Make 2022 your year!

Take 10 minutes to run up the stairs in your office or home. A study in the journal Physiology & Behavior found that tired women who climbed stairs for 10 minutes got a bigger energy boost than those who had the caffeine equivalent of a can of soda or half a cup of coffee.

Delegate more chores

Money can’t buy happiness—but it can buy time. A large study found that people who spent money on time-saving services, such as getting someone to clean the garage, obtained greater life satisfaction and happiness than those who shelled out for material goods.

Explore new hobbies

Another sleepy Sunday? Today’s the day you try Ethiopian food, attend a ballet or take a painting class — whatever feels fun. When researchers followed 7,500 people for 25 years, they found that those who complained of major boredom were roughly twice as likely to die from heart disease.

Play upbeat music

Research shows that blasting any happy-making tune can work multiple mind-body wonders, including reducing pain during exercise, elevating mood and lowering stress.

Go to bed on time, with your partner

Getting sufficient sleep can make you feel ready for action. A study, in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, found that women who got more sleep had more desire the next day and an easier time becoming aroused. Every additional hour they slept increased their likelihood of having sex by 14%, so skip late-night web searches and hit the hay.

Give yourself more compliments

Repeat after us: “Today is my day. I’m thankful for me.” Positive self-talk can help you focus on what’s good in your life. Research shows that a little vitamin G (for gratitude) can make you feel happier and more satisfied and even improve your sleep.

Drink up

14 14

You know you need to hydrate—but it’s especially important when you get only six hours of sleep (or less!). You’re more likely to be dehydrated the day after a short night of sleep—because a hormone that regulates your body’s water conservation is released in later stages of sleep, so down some extra water on those days.

HEALTH

CAN’T SHAKE IT?

The average American, after all, gets two to three colds a year, according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Most colds last only three to five days, but you can still be congested or have a cough for up to two weeks. The trouble is, colds can linger longer or get worse as a result of lifestyle habits and behaviors, including those you might otherwise have thought were healthy. Have you made any of these mistakes?

You could be making your cold worse

Exercise can be a mental godsend when you’re sick, lifting your spirits at the very least. But don’t take this as permission to give it your all when you’re sick, or you could make yourself worse. If you have a fever, cough, chest congestion or upset stomach, hold off on all exercise until those symptoms resolve.

Mistake #1: Not backing off your intensity at the gym.

Mistake #2: Telling yourself you’re not sick. If you’ve always subscribed to the mind-over-matter philosophy when it comes to recovering from colds, give it up. Pretending you’re not sick might not encourage you to dial back your activities, which means you could overexert yourself, thus making symptoms worse and delaying recovery.

Mistake #3: Skimping on sleep.

Sleep might sink to the bottom of your regular to-do list—the CDC reports that one in three Americans don’t get the sleep they need—but when you’re sick, sleep becomes even more critical. Inadequate sleep can reduce the function of the immune system and prolong recovery from colds. The problem is, cold symptoms like coughing and congestion can keep you awake when you’re trying to sleep. If that’s the case, try using over-the-counter medications to sleep better.

Mistake #4: Overusing decongestants. Decongestants can certainly make you feel better, and even sleep better, which can shorten the course of your cold. Using a nasal decongestant for longer than one or two days, however, could spell trouble. When used beyond three days, experts say typical decongestant nasal sprays can make your congestion worse.

HOLLYWOOD HAPPENINGS Hollywood studios are famous for their creative bookkeeping. Big-name stars are warned to get their money up front because the back-end profits often suffer from studios “cooking the books”! Anthony McCarten, writer of “Bohemian Rhapsody,” recently sued 20th Century Fox because it claimed “Bohemian Rhapsody,” which cost $55 million, lost $51 million. He was contracted to receive 5% of the profits, from the back end, but hasn’t seen a cent of the $900 million it grossed, so he filed a more than 50-page lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court. In 1989, James Garner sued Universal Pictures for $16.5 million for syndication royalties from his “Rockford Files” series. He was only paid $249,000 of the $119 million royalties, but six years later, he settled out of court for an undisclosed sum (rumored to be $6 million). In 2013, Don Johnson sued Rysher Entertainment for foreign-syndication monies owed for his “Nash Bridges” series (of which he was part owner). He sued for $50 million, and a panel of judges ruled he be paid $15 million. He persisted and was awarded an estimated $19 million and 50% of the copyright of the series. WWW.THEGRANDSEASON.COM

GROWTH

MAKE LIFE BETTER

Take care of yourself this year by starting some new habits.

Stop hitting the snooze button.

Many people believe snoozing several times is a gentler way to wake up, but this actually causes sleep to be more disrupted, leaving the person feeling more sleepy. Instead, sleep experts recommend being honest with oneself and setting the alarm for the time you actually get up. Your body will then learn to prepare for waking at that time and you will feel less tired over the course of the day.

Open the blinds as soon as you rise.

Make it a habit to open the blinds as soon as you wake up each day. Even just five minutes of sunlight first thing in the morning not only boosts your vitamin D levels, but also helps balance your cortisol (aka stress) levels.

and mental health by giving your brain a break and encouraging better sleep in your screen-free sanctuary.

Doodle or color.

Whether you use colored pencils to create your own drawings, or doodle in an adult coloring book, your mind and body relax when you’re engaging in a focused, soothing activity. When the mind becomes focused on a creative task, worrisome thoughts tend to fade away. As the creative mind ‘plays,’ feelgood neurochemicals such as serotonin, activate positive feelings of wellness and serenity.

Get outside.

No matter how busy you are, make it a habit to step outside for a breath of fresh air each

day. Doing this, even for short increments at a time, provides you with many health benefits— both physical and mental. Research suggests spending time outside helps you sleep better at night, lowers heart rate, reduces stress levels, boosts mental health, and stimulates the immune system.

Exercise regularly.

Getting your heart rate up increases your happy hormones (serotonin, dopamine, etc.), thus improving your mood, pleasure, and reducing pain. And this doesn’t require long hours in the gym, six days a week. Something as simple as three to four days each week, walking briskly or doing a quick 30-minute circuit routine can meet your needs. It all counts.

Banish your phone from the bedroom.

Ideally, your bedroom is a sanctuary for sleep, relaxation, and intimacy. Phones, TVs and laptops disrupt all of those things. Take care of your physical

MONEY

DELETE DEBT Strategies to eliminate credit card debt

If one of your goals for the next 12 months is to eliminate credit card debt, experts suggest the following tips will help you achieve your goal.

1. Target just one card first

If you’re carrying balances on multiple cards, it can be a long haul to wipe out those debts. So give yourself a boost of instant gratification right from the start. Ask yourself: What short-term financial goal will make me feel as though I’m making meaningful progress on debt reduction? If your answer is, “Having one card totally paid off,” then throw as much money as you can toward the card with the lowest balance first. If your answer is, “Boosting my credit score,” then tackle the card with the highest utilization rate (that’s your balance divided by the card’s limit).

2. Ask your creditors for lower interest rates

Often a simple phone call to the issuer is all it takes to get a reduced rate—provided that you have good credit (a score of 730 or higher) and you are a long-term customer who makes payments on time. You could get a percentage point or two shaved off, which can add up to hundreds of dollars saved annually. One tip to try: If you’ve been offered a lower rate by a competitor, tell a customer service rep from your card issuer. There’s a chance they’ll match the offer.

3. Make two minimum payments each month.

Card issuers typically charge interest on a daily basis, so the sooner you make a payment, the faster your average daily balance is reduced, which translates into fewer dollars in interest that you ultimately pay. If you’re on a tight budget, go ahead and pay the minimum due each month, then try to make the same payment again two weeks later. Keep making a payment of the initial minimum-due amount twice a month until your debt is paid off.

AAA SENIOR PLACEMENT AZ A Message from Sue Royer “I was born and raised in inner city Chicago, the sixth of eighteen children with fifteen brothers. Being the oldest daughter, I was always a caregiver which I believe influenced me to pursue work in the healthcare industry. Today, I have three daughters and five grandchildren. Years ago, I volunteered for hospice and knew immediately that helping seniors was my calling. I was soon employed by hospice but I felt something was missing. I realized it was the limited time I was able to spend with my clients. Having my own business allows me to provide the intimate hands on service needed in our community. I am committed to our seniors throughout their lives and I thank the community for the opportunity to serve.” Sue Royer Director
