According to the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor, there are 31 million entrepreneurs in the USA, which is 16% of our workforce. These small businesses employ 61.7 million people. In May of this year, 423,945 new business applications were filed. Keep in mind that only 65% of small businesses in the USA are profitable.
20% of new businesses fail during the first two years of being open, 45% fail during the first five years and 65% fail during the first 10 years according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Only 25% of new businesses make it to 15 years or more. These statistics have been consistent since the 1990s. Why do so many entrepreneurs fail?
In a world filled with fleeting moments and transient experiences, the concept of legacy stands as a testament to the enduring impact individuals can have on society. But do we really need to leave a legacy? According to the Population Reference Bureau, 117 billion members of our species have been born on Earth since the beginning of time. How many of these do you actually remember?
In order to create a powerful legacy, you first need to decide what contribution you want to make to this world. Just imagine that you are attending your own funeral. What would you want your family and friends to say about you and how you lived your life?

Growing older is a natural part of life’s journey, yet for many, it comes with a sense of loneliness. When we were kids, teenagers, and young adults, we often determined our self-worth by the number of friends we had in our circle. As we begin to get older, we may prefer having fewer, but closer friends with more meaningful connections sharing the same hobbies, philosophies, and likes.

There are close to 10,000 senior centers scattered throughout the USA, serving 1 million people each day. Senior centers can provide transportation services, employment assistance, volunteer opportunities, and fun group events like bridge and arts & crafts.
Since the beginning of America, we have been a very giving people. Starting with the Pilgrims in 1630, neighbors relied on each other to survive the harsh winters. The settlers raised each other’s barns, hosted quilting bees for the community, and built common areas in their towns.
More than 200 years ago, Ben Franklin felt that the average citizen must share in a commitment to the greater good of their community and their country.
According to The Washington Post, our teacher shortage has grown 35% in the 37 states they monitor to over 49,000 vacancies. For example, Arizona has 2,890 openings, more than 1,000 from the previous year.
We all know that teaching is much more than spelling tests, geography quizzes, and learning formulas. Students are influenced by teachers for their broader guidance and ability to improve a kid’s confidence during this formative time of their lives. 83% of students say a teacher had boosted their confidence and self-esteem.

RETIRED- NOW WHAT?

According to the United States Census, 1 in 6 people in the United States are 65 and older. That compares to 1 in 20, a hundred years ago back in 1920. Social Security benefits are received by 48.6 million Americans. 10,000 Baby Boomers are turning 65 each day.
Retirement is not merely a matter of financial preparation, but also an emotional and psychological journey. The challenges we face are not only adjusting to a new routine but dealing with the feelings of purposelessness, how to overcome boredom and restlessness, and managing potential financial constraints.

WHY DO KIDS STRUGGLE IN SCHOOL? UNDERSTANDING THE CHALLENGES AND FINDING SOLUTIONS

As parents and educators, we often find ourselves wondering, “Why do kids struggle in school?” This question has been a topic of concern and discussion for generations. Every child is unique, and their struggles in the academic environment can stem from various factors. But a factor that has affected most kids today is the untimely pandemic that kept them out of school.
Children may face various challenges that lead to struggles in school. Understanding the reasons behind these difficulties is the first step towards providing the necessary support and interventions.

WHY ARE KIDS READING LESS?

According to UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Emergency Fund), only a third of 10-year-olds globally are able to read and understand a simple written story, which means that 64% are unable to cover the minimum proficiency in reading comprehension. This is up from 52% pre-pandemic. Obviously not going to school during the pandemic interfered with the student’s reading fluency which is fundamental for academic development because the reading you learn in second and third grade is crucial as students read to learn about other subjects as they make their way into later grades.
Reading plays a vital role in a child’s overall development. It enhances vocabulary, improves critical thinking skills, sparks creativity, and fosters empathy.

WHY DIVORCE IS SO HARD ON KIDS

From 1900-1930, the divorce rate in the USA was 1.1 out of 1,000 Americans. In the 1970’s it was 4, while in the 1980’s it was 5. Baby Boomers became the most divorced generation in USA history. Luckily today in 2022, the rate has dropped to 2.3 per 1,000 Americans. Perhaps the Baby Boomers’ children did learn from the mistakes of their parents. But the impact on all of our kids is the same, no matter what generation experienced divorce in their family.
Divorce is a difficult and emotional process for everyone involved, especially for children. When parents decide to end their marriage, it can have a significant impact on their children’s well-being and development.

BOOSTING MEMORY IN SENIORS: UNLOCK THE SECRETS TO SHARPENING COGNITIVE FUNCTION

My wife and I many times look at each other and say, “Why can’t I remember her name, or where actually did I put down my phone”. Memory loss is a common concern among seniors, and we are always looking for ways to improve our cognitive function and somehow enhance our memory.
Memory enhancement plays a vital role in maintaining a high quality of life for seniors. Let’s explore effective methods to boost memory in older adults.

OUR FASCINATION WITH PETS

Every month of the year has pet awareness events. For instance, June is National Adopt a cat month, it is National Zoo and Aquarium Month, and National pet preparedness month. June also has National hug your cat day, International Corgi Day, World Pet Memorial Day, National take your cat to work day, Ugliest dog day and take your dog to work day. Why do we care about animals to give them so much attention?
“We know the medical reasons for a pet, but what about the psychological advantages?”

HOMELESS BABY BOOMERS

Baby Boomers think that we are the best generation to come along in this great country of ours. We have been running the government for the last 6 years and look at the chaos we have created. Our children are dying in record numbers from this opioid overdose epidemic and what have we done to fix this issue? And our fellow Baby Boomers are homeless in record numbers…
“Our government cannot solve this issue that should haunt all of us, alone. It takes a web of city agencies, nonprofits, and religious institutions to concentrate on treating and helping the baby boomers who are in trouble. “

WHAT ARE PARENT’S RESPONSIBILITIES IN TODAY’S WORLD?

In today’s world of instant information, uncertainty, cruelty, and differences in ideas, what is the true role of parents? Obviously, parents provide their children with food, clothing, and a place to live. They also are to provide financial support, medical care, and the opportunity to receive an education. And they are to protect their children from harm and provide them with a safe environment that includes supervision and control of any situation.

“So, the real question becomes, in today’s hectic world, how can a parent juggle everything to even come close to instilling these traits into this newest generation? Is it even possible to raise a “normal” kid with everything going on in this country and the world?”

TOO MANY GRANDPARENTS JUST DON’T CARE

We may want to rush to judgement and say “what is wrong with our baby boomer generation” that they are not involved in wanting to raise this next greatest generation. But many of these broken relationships may not be caused entirely by the grandparents.

“While grandparents are crucial in a grandchild’s development, grandparents can also cause a strained relationship with the kid’s parents. They can facilitate dividing spouses and can cause generational anxiety.”

BABY BOOMERS: TIME TO PAY IT FORWARD?

We hold this space as an opportunity to showcase those people we encounter now and then who simply show up every day with a radiant, uplifting spirit coupled with a genuine willingness to give back. That said, as Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of this award-winning global media digest and CEO/ReImaginator for 360° Nation, I was delighted to have the opportunity to get better acquainted with Marc Joseph, Co-Founder of BabyBoomer.org, whose mission is to be part of Boomers’ daily lives – not only to help them find what they need but also enrich their lives and find new friends with similar interests

“If you could only sense how important you are to the lives of those you meet; how important you can be to the people you may never even dream of. There is something of yourself that you leave at every meeting with another person.
