Resolutions — Resolving to change is an important element to guide your Goal Focus.\u00c2\u00a0 Have you gone to our site \"Brain<\/a>and downloaded your Free Report yet?\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 http:\/\/thelifecoachdr.com\/resolution<\/a> — Just click on the “Free Report” tab at the top of the page.<\/p>\n

Resolutions<\/a> don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t always have to be about quitting smoking or getting more fit.\u00c2\u00a0 What about learning something you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve always wanted to learn?<\/p>\n

Perhaps you want to start a blog or turn a hobby into an income earner.\u00c2\u00a0 The internet makes it so much easier to share information and to learn.\u00c2\u00a0 If you can think of a topic chances are there is a tutorial or webinar waiting for you on the web.<\/p>\n

Web learning is appealing because courses are available for download or online 24 hours a day.\u00c2\u00a0 You can work on them after you return home from work and the kids are in bed. Some offer audio versions you can transfer to an iPod or Smartphone and listen to during your commute \u00e2\u20ac\u201c or during your afternoon walk.<\/p>\n

There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s no arguing that we are all getting older, but age affects our brain \u00e2\u20ac\u0153muscle\u00e2\u20ac\u009d as much as the rest of our framework.\u00c2\u00a0 The Administration on Aging predicts that there will be 72.1 million Americans aged 65 and over by the year 2030 – 19% of the population. Learning a new skill can help fend off!\u00c2\u00a0 Getting into the habit of learning new skills helps to keep your brain functioning at its best for your entire lifetime!<\/p>\n

Denise Park, PhD, from the University’s School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 221 adults aged between 60 and 90 for a period of 3 months.\u00c2\u00a0 The results were illuminating.<\/p>\n

Older people who engaged in mentally challenging tasks, such as learning a new skill, were more mentally agile than those who stayed home or who did mental challenging games only.\u00c2\u00a0 According to Park, “It seems it is not enough just to get out and do something – it is important to get out and do something that is unfamiliar and mentally challenging, and that provides broad stimulation mentally and socially.”<\/p>\n
