Friday, January 3, 2014 – Daily News 3A Community people&events Five things you can do to be happier Santa helps Marines with raffle and more successful starting now steps forward and one step backwards. 4) Get Support There are things we do well and there are things we want to do well. Making life-changes falls in the latter category, not the former. After all, if we were accomplished at our goals, we would have already achieved them. Building a network of support can guide and direct us when we feel lost, and applaud us when we aren't. There is always more power in a group than in a single person (for better or worse). One other benefit to group support is it "shuts the back door." Too often, we don't tell people our goals because if do, we have to actually change. Well, short of the fact that you can change your mind, announcing our plans does make us more committed to achieving them. Keeping them "quiet" allows us to back down quicker, which prompts the question, "Am I really committed to this?" (a discussion left for another column) 5) Reward Yourself Often Change is as much emotional as it is physical. Holding off the goodies from our "inner kid," makes us feel like we've got one more chore in an already tedious life. We get resentful and quit. If however, we can make it more fun, we're more inclined to keep at it Life is short, enjoy it - and remind yourself more often of the pleasures. say in sales, "We buy what we Here we are – Januwant, not necessarily what we ary.

Marine Corps League, Detachment 1140, Tehama/Red Bluff, held the drawing Dec. 24 for the Golden Boy .22 Rifle that they had been advertising in their last raffle for 2013. The drawing was held at Denny's on Antelope Boulevard, in Red Bluff and Santa Claus showed up to help as he was in the neighborhood preparing to deliver gifts to all the kids in the area. The winner lives in Red Bluff and has been notified. Santa disclosed that he had served in the Air Force "long ago." The Marines wished him well with his flight, which would be tracked by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) later that evening. In return Santa wished the Marines "good recruiting" for the detachment because he and so many others appreciate what they do in the Red Bluff and Tehama County community.
