use your time wisely

Do you ever feel like you know just enough about seniors to be dangerous? Let's see if we can fill in some of the gaps with the latest info from seniors experts.

Do you feel you're too busy to sit down in the evening? When your kids are around, do you feel you're unable to devote the time and attention to them that you would like to? What about at work, do you feel swamped and can't get things done? As you read over the list below, choose the ones that waste the most time for you and circle them. Then, think about ways that you can take back the time these things waste for you.

1. Attempting to do too much

2. Checking your email continually

3. Daydreaming

4. Disorganized - messy environment

5. Doing the same things over and over again

6. Doing too many things

7. Gossiping

8. Housework

9. Misplacing things

10. Not being able to say 'No'

11. Not letting anyone else help you do things

12. Not planning ahead

13. Not setting priorities

Knowledge can give you a real advantage. To make sure you're fully informed about seniors, keep reading.

14. Over planning and over thinking

15. Perfectionism

16. Poor time management

17. Procrastinating

18. Reading junk mail and junk email

19. Reading unnecessary material

20. Shopping, shopping, shopping

21. Talking on the telephone to friends

22. Too many meetings

23. Too tired

24. Travel time to/from work

25. Watching too much television

This list is in no way exhaustive. Add some things of your own and get to work on eliminating your time wasters and enjoying life more.



Now you can be a confident expert on seniors. OK, maybe not an expert. But you should have something to bring to the table next time you join a discussion on seniors.

Of Interest to Baby Boomers.
by Cynthia Rowland
The 60's – flower children, hippies, tie dyed shirts, bandanas and free love. The Rolling Stones, Elvis, the Beatles and the notion they would never grow old began to permeate their thinking. Their new way of thinking made their parents shake their heads at a generation who embraced peace and declared to the world that they would stay young forever.

Baby Boomers begin turning 60! These bold, daring trailblazers have given "60" a new "look." Clothing, hair dye and vitamins have given the baby boomers an edge - Being 60 today is nothing like when their parents were 60.

This generation of new thinkers began an odyssey to dispel aging.

"Down with the establishment" is still their mantra today. An overwhelming percentage of Baby Boomers are turning to alternative methods to maintain and improve their health and well-being. Rather than medication, they've turned to meditation, acupuncture and exercise to keep them in better health.
