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.

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.

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.

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

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

COUCH THEATER Being the Ricardos (R) The long-awaited story of Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz as their iconic characters of Lucy and Ricky Ricardo has finally arrived. Not since Tom Cruise was cast as the vampire LeStat has there been so much quizzical buzz about casting, namely Nicole Kidman as Lucy. While the story focuses on a time when “I Love Lucy” was facing cancellation, interwoven is the effect of the McCarthyism of the time, rampant sexism, Ball’s desire for control and the relationship between Lucy and Desi (played by Javier Bardem). Don’t Look Up (R) The plot for this dark comedy with a message is remarkably timely as NASA is planning on hitting an asteroid that’s coming too close to Earth for comfort. On screen, Leo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence play low-level astronomers desperately trying to warn the government, the media and the world of impending doom and certain death via a giant comet, only to be met by indifference, laughs and disbelief. The rest of the cast is jam-packed with Oscar nominees and winners, as well. WWW.THEGRANDSEASON.COM
