Calling all book lovers! Kick off the new year with the right titles on your bookshelf with this pack from Pan Macmillan Australia. The pack includes a copy of Di Morrissey’s Arcadia, Danielle Steel’s The Cast and Rosalie Ham’s The Year of the Farmer. All three women are The New York Times Best Sellers authors. We have one pack to giveaway.

FROM THE EDITOR

I

’ve never been a huge believer in New Year’s resolutions. Identifying numerous changes and tackling each head-on, all at the same time, has never really worked.

I’m starting to learn the key is breaking each goal down, planning, and introducing new habits over a period of time so that they stick.

This January, I have kicked off the year in a slightly different way, devoting time to reviewing 2018, identifying purpose and also clear goals with realistic timeframes. I’m reading inspiring messages and books that drive thinking and reflection. (If you haven’t yet read Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor E. Frankl, I highly recommend it.)

Perhaps this is why Sunshine Coast nutritionist Cyndi O’Meara’s words stuck in my mind, “Habit by habit, step by step, bit by bit, things will change, but if you don’t change anything then nothing will change for you.” I love that.

Given that we’re a positive bunch here at MWP, we thought there was no better time than now to enlist the help of leaders in the areas of mind, body and soul. In this week’s cover story, Cyndi talks about what it takes to create and achieve a goal in a positive way, and also to make long-term changes.

I hope you find the advice, from all of our contributors, useful and inspiring.

Of course, we also have our regular reads including local news, profile, My home and property. Until next week, take care.

QUICK CHAT

MAKING THE CONNECTION Where do you live? Diddillibah.

First job? I was a life guard at a local pool.

What are you currently working on? Now that I’m the president of SunnyKids I’ve been juggling a few hats lately. In my own company, HRM, I’m looking at changing our model to something that’s a little bit different for the recruitment industry. For SunnyKids we’re looking at expanding the programs and planning charity events for next year.

Sally Desch BIO

Sally Desch is the powerhouse behind Sunshine Coast recruitment agency HRM Contracting & Consulting. Over the past 13 years she’s worked with more than 1000 businesses and built her business with a second agency.

Ms Desch has also become the new president of SunnyKids – a charity that helps disadvantaged children reach their full potential. She is passionate about driving change within the Sunshine Coast community.

IMAGE: TRACY NAUGHTON

Can you nominate a day in your life that turned out to be a turning point and why? The day I decided to go out on my own and start my business. Many people told me I was crazy but I’ve never looked back.

Your family includes? My husband Stefan and two children Gabby and Lachy.

Your greatest regret? I don’t have any regrets, although sometimes I think I would like to be a lawyer.

Favourite book? It would have to be One Word That Will Change Your Life by Jon Gordon, Dan Britton and Jimmy Page. It’s about choosing one word that will be your driving force for the year. I’m actually heading overseas soon and plan to read the book again while I’m away to choose my 2019 word.

What achievement are you most proud of? Getting to where I am today. I have a great family, a good business and I’m able to give back to our community.

If your life was a book, what would be the title? Craziness is the New Black.

e s u o h r e pow

Many people say they move here for the lifestyle not the money, but I think we should be able to offer both. I’m hoping the new CBD that’s being built in Maroochydore will attract a number of big ticket corporations that will offer higher salaries for people living in the region.

What are you reading now? I’ve actually just acquired a second recruitment agency, so the only reading I’m getting done at the moment is its database.

“Life is short, take the risk, buy the shoes, eat the cake and enjoy family”

You are happiest when? I’m sitting on my back deck with my family, a cup of tea in the morning, and a wine in the afternoon.

What frustrates you the most? People with a 10-second voice-to-text voicemail.

Favourite song and why? Anything by Keith Urban.

How do you deal with your frustrations?

I remind myself if it won’t matter in five years, don’t spend more than five minutes worrying about it.

What are you watching right now, would you recommend it, and why? I don’t really watch TV, but if I do it’s re-runs of Law and Order: SVU.

If you could tell your 18-year-old self anything, what would it be? Life is short, take the risk, buy the shoes, eat the cake and enjoy family and friends.

When was the last time you played sport and what was it? It was so long ago I don’t even remember. It would have been netball – I was very competitive but my knees can’t handle it now.

Best advice you’ve been given? Do what it takes.

What is your favourite place on the Sunshine Coast and why? Moffat Beach. There are great cafes, great parks for the kids and it doesn’t get as busy as some of the more popular flagged beaches.

If you could change one thing on the Sunshine Coast, what would it be? It would definitely be higher salaries.

If you could have dinner with any three people, dead or alive, who would they be? Bruce Willis, Jason Statham and Keith Urban. Three very interesting (and good-looking) guys!

If you won $1 million, how would you spend it? I would go on a three-month holiday, then invest in programs for charities.

Tea or coffee and how do you have it? Tea. White, with no sugar.

Mountain Creek is named after the creek which drains from the southern slopes of Buderim and the wallum country nearby. From 1864 to the 1880s, Mountain Creek was a ‘rafting ground’ site from which pine was rafted to the timber depot on the Mooloolah River.

The sun is so large that it contains 99.8 per cent of the total mass in the solar system.

COVER STORY

NEW YEAR, NEW YOU Determined to get your body, mind and soul into shape for 2019? My Weekly Preview discovers that the goals you set for yourself in the new year are easier to achieve than you might think.

WORDS: Jemma Pearson.

FIT AND FAB

IMAGE: MADA MUELLER PHOTOGRAPHY

When it comes to making New Year’s resolutions, getting into shape is usually at the top of many a wish list. And it’s usually the first resolution that’s broken. But if you’re determined to make fitness a priority, you don’t need to invest that much time, says Coast fitness expert Jamie Milne.

“One of the best ways to implement health as a priority is to allocate one per cent of your day to making change.

“That translates to just three to five minutes a day.”

Mr Milne says often people have an all-or-nothing approach to fitness, but his advice is to introduce change slowly.

“We are creatures of habit so we have to create a sustainable habit,” he tells My Weekly Preview.

“An hour a day at the gym – that’s just too much for some. I was recently reading a research study from the University of London about changing a habit and the old [adage that it takes] 28 days is a fallacy. The overage is about 90 days.”

Given that it can take three months for a new habit to stick, the key is to make small changes.

“If people allocate five minutes [to exercise a day] – say a 400-metre run or

16 My Weekly Preview | January 11, 2019

16.indd 1

200-metre walk and five push ups for 90 days – the cumulative total would be massive.

“Just do five minutes in your lunch hour – go run out to the end of the driveway, do 10 squats and 10 sit-ups and 10 push-ups.

Over seven days, the total might be three kilometres and 70 squats. It all adds up.”

It’s a big change for little effort.

“And then what happens is people push it out.” So while out for that five-minute walk you’re likely to go a bit further.

“The definition of a habit is something you do without thinking – such as tying your shoelaces or brushing your teeth.”

You need to stick with your new routine until you just don’t think about it anymore.

“There are three steps to a habit,” Mr Milne adds. “Let’s take a habit like drinking wine. The first is the cue –that might be you’ve had a rotten day at work and are stressed. The next step is action – which is to grab a bottle of wine.

“And the last step is reward – that warm fuzzy feeling wine gives you. You can make that work for good. So the cue would be to put your running gear in your work bag. The action is just five minutes of exercise a day and the reward is at the end of the week you treat yourself.”

DID YOU

KNOW The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare reports that around 45 per cent of Australians aged 16 to 85 will experience a mental illness at some stage in their lives.

Almost two-thirds of Australians aged 18 and over, and 28 per cent of children aged five to 17 are overweight or obese, which increases their risk of developing a number of chronic conditions such as arthritis, back pain, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. myweeklypreview.com.au

7/01/2019 11:42:12 AM

COVER STORY

STEP BY STEP Nutritionist and Changing Habits founder Cyndi O’Meara knows a thing or two about creating a goal and achieving it through healthier habits.

“A habit is created when you do something over and over and the neurons in the brain all start to fire and wire together,” she tells My Weekly Preview.

“To break a habit, a new habit must be formed that overrides the old program. This can be done with discipline and repetition.

“Five years ago I decided to start ocean swimming. I found a local group to swim. The early-morning swim habit stuck and five years later I still get up early to swim 1.2 kilometres along Mooloolaba Beach.

“I also decided to start meditating, so I made the decision to do 20 minutes every morning before swimming.

This has become something I don’t like to miss. I also decided many years ago to be more grateful for the things around me than complain, so I purchased a journal and every day I wrote 10 things I am grateful for in the day. It’s another habit that fixed.”

Ms O’Meara’s advice for creating lasting change is to start with one new habit, stick with it and then stack on new habits. “Habit by habit, step by step, bit by bit, things will change, but if you don’t change anything then nothing will change for you.”

10 wellness

trends

of 2019

• Statistics tracking – our need to track our sleep, our steps and anything else that can be turned into a bar chart will continue into 2019. Look out for at-home urine and blood test kits that can identify a range of conditions and monitor things like your cholesterol and thyroid health.

• Food as medicine – we’ll be more aware of the foods we eat, not just for nutrition but also to treat disorder and disease.

• Clean air – don’t have an indoor plant? You will in 2019

HAPPY MIND, HEALTHY MIND Success coach Kurek Ashley has inspired countless people around the world to make lasting changes in their lives. And while his fans come to his seminars or read his books for different reasons, Mr Ashley says we all want the same thing – happiness.

“People think that ‘when I get the money’ or ‘when I get the relationships’ I will be happy. But happiness IS the way,” he tells My Weekly Preview.

It’s a simple concept, so why do so many people find it so hard?

“First they think it can’t be that easy, and second, the hard part is having new original thoughts.”

He says reading affirmations, having goals and expressing gratitude help to change your mindset and create these new thoughts.

“Every baby is born pure without negative thought. That’s a learned condition.”

Which means you can learn new ways of thinking.

“We have to change. The world is not going to change. We have to fix our internal world.” Take responsibility by saying ‘I am changing my response to the world. I am going to be happy’.

“Make a decision. Be proactive. Not reactive. Be committed, be consistent to that decision. Every day work on it. Invest in yourself and your own personal development. If you get a little bit better every day celebrate it. Remember, one apple seed can create a whole apple orchard. But you have to plant the seed.”

• Minimalism – clutter-free living is not new, but the downsizing trend continues to gain traction with all generations who crave a simpler life and a tidier home.

The kitchen revolution will also take hold. If you’re thinking of doing a kitchen cleanout in 2019, you’re not alone.

Health and wellbeing starts with a well-ordered pantry filled with whole, fresh foods.

• Eco-friendly everything – last year’s plastic-free trend inspired home cooks to ditch the plastic containers and parents to eschew plastic toys. Consumers took their recyclable containers to wholefood stores in an effort to minimise packaging. Now the eco trend is moving further into our lives – look out for shoes, clothes and home furnishings made from recycled rubber and plastics.

THE KEY TO HAPPINESS What’s the key to happiness? Professional coach Paula Loveday says it has more to do with the happiness of loved ones than personal achievement.

The University of the Sunshine Coast researcher says, “When we have good relationships we have a sense of achievement, like our lives are working out well; a sense of relatedness which is the enjoyment of being with others; and a sense of altruism in that we can support others. As part of her PhD thesis, Ms Loveday asked 141 people to write how they envisaged their “best possible future”, and measured their perceived levels of happiness before and after the exercise. “Not everyone mentioned health or money or success, but every single person wrote something to do with others, and it was this act of picturing their loved ones in happy situations that allowed them to express closeness, compassion and hope for others,” she says. “If you want to have a feeling of achievement and satisfaction, then it is probably very useful to set achievement-based goals. But if you are looking for a feeling of peace and contentment, you should make relationships the focus.”

into muffins and sprinkled on salads. Yeah, man.

Vegan food, everywhere – you don’t have to head to a vegan cafe for a plant-based feast. Your local supermarket now stocks vegan cheese, vegan ice-cream and vegan meat substitutes. Expect the number of these offerings to increase in 2019.

Mental health apps – they won’t replace traditional therapies, but these apps help identify areas of stress and offer mood-improvement and self-care techniques.

Wellness in the workplace – managers and business owners are now recognising that their employees’ mental health is as important as their skills. We’ll see businesses offering emotional intelligence and communication training and being much more aware of signs of stress in their workforce.

Green beauty and organic skincare – beauty consumers will continue to demand skincare and makeup that is as kind to the planet as it is to their bodies.

LOVE IS IN THE AIR AT WEDDING SHOWCASE The ultimate Summer Wedding Showcase is on in the hinterland and unlike any other wedding expo, this two-day event is your key to open the doors and explore some of the best wedding venues the beautiful hinterland region has to offer. Participating venues, together with the region’s best industry suppliers, offer brides and grooms-to-be the opportunity to take time to tour all the venues at their own pace and talk to all the local industry experts who really know and love the hinterland. The showcase runs from 10am to 4pm January 12 and 13.

This is a free event and you do not need a ticket to attend. However, you can purchase tickets for a draw to win $5000 towards wedding services. For more information, visit hinterlandwedding.com.au/events.

INAUGURAL GIG FOR MAROOCHY JAZZ AND BLUES COLLECTIVE The Maroochydore Jazz and Blues Collective’s inaugural gig will feature The David Bentley Trio and special guest Mark Spencer. The swinging and spirited line-up, which also includes Andrew Shaw and Nathan Goldman, will perform original songs, classic jazz standards and New Orleans grooves. The January 13 event at Old Soul Bar from 2pm to 5pm will David Bentley behind the piano also serve as the Sunshine Coast launch for the trio’s new CD, DB3: The Lake Sessions, which was recorded at a studio on the shores of Lake Cootharaba. Collective founder Graeme Buchanan says the monthly sessions are for anyone who appreciates music, would like to enjoy a dance or a drink, and doesn’t necessarily want to go somewhere where the sound is “over-amplified”.

BILLION The 2019 ASICS Sports Medicine Australia Conference will be held on the Sunshine Coast later this year. This annual event gathers together the brightest minds from around the world to hear the latest research updates in the fields of sports medicine, sport science, physical activity, health promotion and injury prevention. Tourism, Events and Sport Portfolio councillor Jason O’Pray says hosting the conference, from October 23 to 26 at the Novotel Twin Waters resort, is a great outcome for the Sunshine Coast and especially the region’s tourism sector. “With high-quality sporting facilities, along with the Sunshine Coast Health Precinct, which is one of the Australia’s largest health infrastructure precincts, this type of event is the perfect fit for our region,” Cr O’Pray says.

“The precinct is estimated to contribute $3.2 billion to the Sunshine Coast economy and a further $447 million in following years, so with conferences like this one, the uplift to the sector will continue to be positive.”

REVIEW

NETBALLERS MAKE A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE IN FIJI Sunshine Coast Lightning goal attack Stephanie Wood and more than 40 young netballers from across the region have lent a helping hand to Fijians living in poverty, journeying Stephanie Wood (centre) with netball around the Pacific Island nation as players from Levuka, Fiji part of a philanthropy-focused sporting tour. Ms Wood says the group – predominantly made up of netballers aged 11 to 18 – visited several orphanages during the nine-day trip and donated much-needed hygiene and cleaning products. The netballers flew into Suva on December 6 and participated in a two-day netball tournament, the 2018 Grasshoppers Netball Festival. Players from Fiji, Vanuatu, Australia and New Zealand took part, with Sunshine Coast teams winning the U16 and U19 categories.

Tour organiser Kim Howard of Motivationz Netball Sunshine Coast says the trip is the third of its kind the organisation had run.

SWIMMING GURU UNISPORT COACH OF THE YEAR USC Spartans para swimming head coach Nathan Doyle (pictured with Danielle Formosa) has tipped his hat to his late mentor Jan Cameron after being named the Unisport Australia Coach of the Year for 2018. Mr Doyle says the advice he received from Ms Cameron, who passed away in April, had contributed greatly to his continued success as a coach.

Mr Doyle took over from Ms Cameron at the Spartans in early 2017 when his predecessor became Australia’s National Para Sport Mentor Coach. The UniSport Australia award recognises Mr Doyle’s stellar year, which included the Spartans being named the nation’s champion club at the 2018 Australian Swimming Trials Championships in March.

Mr Doyle’s athletes went on to win two silver and three bronze medals at the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast in April, and a further 22 medals at the 2018 Pan Pacific Para Swimming Championships in Cairns in August. Mr Doyle also took out the Coach of the Meet for his performances at the championships.

WHEELS OF FORTUNE The Sunshine Coast’s only international sporting team has a stellar new line-up for 2019.

T

he Australian Cycling Academy (ACA) has welcomed 2019 with a fresh line-up, after recruiting seven new team members. World record-holder Alex Porter has joined the newly rebranded Pro Racing Sunshine Coast team, which now also includes Commonwealth Games gold medallist Michael Freiberg and world champion Alistair Donohoe.

The other new recruits are Palmwoods local Taj Jones, and USC students Kai Chapman, Zack Gilmore and Matt Rice.

The ACA managing director and co-founder Ben Kersten says the team has had a phenomenal first year. In its inaugural year, the Sunshine Coast’s only international sporting team competed

in 10 countries, recording 94 podium finishes and 54 wins, including a gold medal and world record at the 2018 Gold Coast Commonwealth Games.

“We couldn’t be happier with how we are placed considering we only launched in December 2017,” Mr Kersten says. “It has been a great launching pad for our team – 10 of our 16 riders have contributed to our 54 wins, so it has been a real team effort. But none of this would have been possible without the outstanding support of our partners and the broader Sunshine Coast community.

“We are delighted to announce seven new members of our men’s team for next year, including 2018 Commonwealth Games gold medallist and world recordholder Alex Porter, who joins his fellow world record-holders Leigh Howard, Sam Welsford and Kelland O’Brien. To have all four of the current world record holders together in the same team will certainly be something special.”

The ACA recently announced a partnership with Stockland’s Aura residential development and work is underway with the corporate sector and broader community to launch a women’s academy and racing team in 2019.

TECH TRENDS IN 2019 & BEYOND The future is bright for new technologies and for the people who embrace them, says a tech expert. WORDS: Greta Stonehouse, AAP.

A

s robots replace humans and artificial intelligence becomes entwined in everyday life, tech expert Michael Bancroft is brimming with optimism about the opportunities the future will bring.

Co-host of Globalive Media’s television series Beyond Innovation, Mr Bancroft interviews scientists and software engineers working towards what could become remarkable inventions. He recently spoke with someone who is researching technology that has the potential to reverse the effects of diabetes, and another who is using nanotechnology to modify brain stem cells.

“This is useful in fighting brain diseases,” he says. “Imagine if we could cure Alzheimer’s in the future when this technology is further developed. There are so many things AI could help cure in health care. It’s about making it for good use and the governance around that.”

As the new year gets into full swing, Mr Bancroft predicts AI technologies and robotics will continue to grow at a rapid pace. He also says there will be lots of growth in what’s been labelled ‘the internet of things’. This includes any device connected to the internet that sends and receives data such as a Fitbit or remotely controlled smart speakers. While

Michael Bancroft (inset) is excited to see what the future holds these ‘things’ are normally designed to be used in isolation, in the new year their integration will be far more cohesive.

Robots will also become more important.

“Take scenarios like disaster relief, where the robot can navigate hostile situations first, even helping to find and save people,” Mr Bancroft says. “They aren’t taking these jobs away from people – we still need the humans there to help – but the robots and humans will start working together for better outcomes.”

The introduction of autonomous vehicles

has already been realised in self-driven monorails, and in the near future automation is bound to take up even more space in the workforce.

For those wanting to adapt, Mr Bancroft recommends early training and education in rapidly expanding fields like data mining, a global race Australia is falling behind in.

“About 2.5 quintillion bytes of data are created every day. It’s a scary thing that we are still trying to wrap our head around,” he says.

“People now have to work out how to mine it.

STOCKTAKE SALE ALL PRODUCTS

“And that’s where AI has a huge part to play.”

The early adopters are already seeing significant cost and time benefits. Lawyers are starting to use new technologies that can pore over case studies and extract the most useful information. In AAP theory this should reduce their billable hours drastically.

Another area of expansion is personalised health care. Instead of the one-size-fits-all approach, now there are algorithms that can tailor treatments for different ailments, and applications for patients to book nurse visits at home rather than having to go into hospital.

Around the world billions is being spent on developing smart cities, where traffic lights and signals help ease congestion based on real-time responses and demand, and garbage bins can indicate just how full they actually are.

If companies want consumers to adopt and trust these new areas of technology, Mr Bancroft has this advice. “You want to make sure consumers are comfortable. When it comes to data and security, companies should focus on transparency.”

THE KEY TO A HAPPY LIFE Former US Marine and business leader Mel McMichael has been a barbershop singer for most of his life and says nothing brings him more joy than singing in harmony with a group. WORDS: Leigh Robshaw.

S

omething special happens when a group of people sing together in harmony. Just ask Mel McMichael, an 89-year-old Buderim man who has been a barbershop singer most of his life.

“Singing makes you healthy,” he says. “It’s very good in terms of lung expansion and it’s very good for your attitude.

You can’t help but be positive when you’re singing good songs and enjoying it. When you’re entertaining people who are enjoying it as well, all of that makes it a happy life.”

Buderim residents may recognise Mr McMichael from his regular performances with the Sunshine Coast Barbershop Chorus, which he co-founded in 1990. Each year, the chorus entertains the crowds at Buderim’s Australia Day festivities.

“This is something the chorus has been doing since 1990,” he says. “Every year we sing Australian songs and when they raise the Australian flag, we sing Advance Australia Fair. People know we sing in front of the old post office and we always see a large crowd gathering.”

Born in the US, Mr McMichael has been singing since early childhood, starting out as a boy soprano at the age of eight, with encouragement from his mother. He joined choirs throughout his school and university years, but when he discovered barbershop singing, he found his true calling.

“Barbershop is a very different kind of harmony,” he says.

“It’s very close chords and very close harmonies. It’s very satisfying; you’re hooked and you can’t go back to any other type of music.”

Mr McMichael served in the US Marine Corps from 1948

to 1952 during the Korean War and as a result of severe wounds, spent six months in a military hospital. After discharge, he studied economics, completing a PhD in business and economics at the University of Texas, before his career brought him to Australia. He was the Foundation Dean of Business at the New South Wales Institute of Technology

and developed Australia’s first Bachelor of Business.

Throughout his high-pressure career, the relaxation and camaraderie barbershop singing provided was invaluable.

He moved to Buderim with his family in 1990 and found a fellow barbershopper, Mike Ivess. The two formed a quartet, Tropical Blend.

“In the four years we sang together we did 135 performances,” says Mr Michael. “In a barbershop quartet you really get to know the other fellows closely.”

Not wanting to disappoint the men who auditioned but didn’t make it into the quartet, they formed the Sunshine Statesmen Barbershop Chorus, which last year achieved its highest ever score at the National Barbershop Convention in Adelaide. During the championships, Mr McMichael was awarded the prestigious BHA gold medal for his lifetime of dedication to barbershop singing. He has started barbershop choruses around the world and has won more than 40 medals.

Mr McMichael would like to encourage anyone interested in singing harmonies in a group to come to his group’s annual learning sessions. The voice coaching program runs for five weeks and all are welcome.

The Sunshine Coast Statesmen’s voice coaching program begins with an introductory night on February 8 at 7.30 at the Uniting Church Hall in Buderim. Contact Graham Nicholson on 0401 261 840.

Even before the December 30 deadline on its Kickstarter campaign, the team behind the autonomous drone Hover 2 had gone above and beyond its goal of securing around $140,000 for this innovative little product. Many modern drones feature some type of autonomous flying, but there are not that many that are fully autonomous. Hover 2 is. It allows you to capture gorgeous shots from every angle with, the developers claim, unprecedented ease. Omni-Follow keeps you in the frame from any angle, so whatever you are doing, the drone has you in its sights. Capture yourself or your friends with cinematic flair thanks to Trackshots, and when you’re done, simply fold up the gadget (the cage minimises the risk of you hurting yourself on the propellers), pop it in your backpack and head home to enjoy the footage.

MY OPINION

TIME FOR SOME GOOD NEWS

LOST IN SPACE

Sami Muirhead is bidding a sad farewell to the holidays by listing her top five happy news stories of the year so far.

H

olidays have seen our family staying up late, sleeping in to whenever-o’clock, me not wearing a bra and staying away from a computer screen most days.

There have been some sour incidents, including me breaking my nose playing Marco Polo with my son in the pool and some heartache when the Christmas pudding and ham supplies finally ran out, which meant I had to start cooking proper meals again this week.

But we have managed to visit the library, catch up with some friends and even take some afternoon naps. It has been bliss to slow down and take stock of what I need more of in my life, how to feel more in tune with my kids and less stressed.

Of course, school and work lie in wait around the corner. Which means I will need to relocate my bras and go back to checking the internet daily for my job as a presenter on radio. In fact, when I am on air, I check news sites every 10 minutes to ensure I am not missing any fresh news.

I still miss breaking stories, because sometimes I am busy internet shopping (if my boss reads this I will deny). But my point is, I really do spend a lot of time checking the web for wowsers. The news is depressing. So in a salute to the last rays of the golden times of holidays, I have gathered a list of the top good news stories of the year so far.

1. The tampon tax has finally been

Richard O’Leary questions quantum mechanics theory as he finds himself unsure of which state or territory he’s living in.

rejected. It is about time. It has been an 18-year campaign to scrap the 10 per cent tax on tampons and pads and they will now be exempt from GST. 2. The population of wild tigers in Nepal was found to have nearly doubled in the past nine years, largely thanks to the efforts by conservationists and increased funding for protected areas. I for one want my children to know tigers are still alive in the wild during their lifetimes.

3. Entire blocks of Cadbury pineapple chocolate are available for a limited time at IGAs across the Coast. Run. Do not walk.

We all know pineapple is the best flavour in the Snack series.

4. A royal baby is coming. The Royals are the original Kardashians and so much classier. Meghan and Harry will welcome their baby in just a few months. I love everything about this royal love story, mainly because Meghan is divorced, mixed race, her parents are seemingly as crazy as the rest of us, and probably the most offensive thing to the Queen: Meghan is an American actress! It breaks all the rules and I never tire of seeing Harry look so incredibly happy.

5. Games Of Thrones finally returns in just two months to our screens for the final season to wrap it all up forever as someone claims the iron throne. If there is a steamy love scene with Jon Snow and the Dragon Queen, this could indeed win best news story of 2019.

H

ave you ever noticed there is never a physicist around when you need one? The thought came to me as I wandered through a supermarket trying to remember where I could find the fresh food section.

You see, for a few months I was living two lives, working in Darwin and flying back every weekend to be with my family on the Sunshine Coast.

Increasingly, I was finding myself disorientated, driving along a road and realising I didn’t know which state or territory I was in, or looking for tomatoes and not being able to work out whether this was the supermarket with the fruit and veggies on the left or right.

Which was why I was suddenly desirous of bumping into some experts on quantum mechanics – in particular Drs Serge Haroche and David J. Wineland, who were awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2012 for proving that atoms and single photons could be in two places at once.

The idea was not new. For more than 80 years, scientists had theorised particles that small exist in a state of flux, allowing them to occupy not just two locations but an infinite number of them, simultaneously.

But no one had been able to devise an experiment which proved the theory – that was until the abovementioned Frenchman and American.

Dr. Haroche put a photon in a box, and hit it with an atom. Dr. Wineland did the

opposite. He put an atom in a box, and hit it with a photon. The results proved the quantum mechanics theory – something even Einstein thought was impossible.

Now, if only the good doctors could have taken their experiment one step further and allowed me to be in two places at once – in the Territory enjoying a job I loved, while simultaneously waking up in the same house as my boys, who I loved even more.

Unfortunately, even quantum mechanics couldn’t deliver on that one.

Apparently, it all comes down to gravity.

“While science failed me, I did manage to come up with my own solution” The force that keeps us pinned to the ground also keeps us locked in one place.

Well, that sucks.

So, while science failed me, I did manage to come up with my own solution – find a new job, and that’s exactly what I have done.

It means I am back on the Coast, and looking a lot less lost.

Which is just as well, because I was starting to feel a lot like Schrödinger’s cat, the subject of another quantum mechanics theory I have no interest in proving one way or the other.

Richard O’Leary is a journalist, a political adviser and a father who knows there’s a deeper meaning to life, but struggles to find it.

BUSINESS & FINANCE

Anthony Ward, Ord Minnett Buderim.

INCOME EARNERS

A

With capital appreciation lacking, where does an investor go from here?

Meanwhile, the gap versus the 10-year bond yield of 2.5 percentage points is similarly attractive, being near previous highs.

Earnings growth is currently forecast at five per cent for fiscal 2019, but dividends are expected to grow nearly eight per cent.

One reason dividend growth is expected to outstrip earnings growth is due to dividend estimates, including special dividends, which generally reflects the distribution of capital rather than earnings.

In the top 20 companies, for example, BHP, IAG, Suncorp and Woolworths have special dividends. There may be some risk that dividend growth will be slower than the circa eight per cent currently forecast, but we don’t see a high probability of dividends declining outright in 2019.

The last time the overall market experienced a fall in dividends was around the GFC, in 2009-10. In fact, dividends grew even in the face of earnings declines over 2012 to 2016.

This stretched payout ratios to around 78 per cent in 2016, although that measure has since improved to circa 73 per cent.

Let’s hope we’ve seen the worst of the current market correction and that 2019 proves a more fruitful year for investors.

BUSINESS BOOTCAMP The Sunshine Coast Business Women’s Network is kicking off the new year with a business bootcamp breakfast that is sure to get you pumped for the 12 months ahead.

To be held on February 12 from 6.45am to 9am at The Lakehouse in Brightwater, guests of the bootcamp will hear from a panel consisting of the 2018 Sunshine Coast Business Women of the Year award winners.

Participants will find out what makes these panellists successful and they will have the opportunity to pick the businesssavvy brains of the six women.

If you are ready for a strong business year, don’t miss out on this breakfast bootcamp to prepare yourself for 2019.

Event bookings and dietary requirements are due by Friday, February 8.

THE

powerful cocktail of trade tensions, geopolitical uncertainty and an unsettled domestic political environment has dragged the S&P/ASX 200 Index down over 10 per cent from the August 2018 high.

With capital appreciation lacking, where does an investor go from here? Well, one positive consequence of the pullback in the Australian equity market is that its forward dividend yield has once again lifted above five per cent. This level has, historically, provided support to the index as investors see an opportunity to switch their funds from poorly returning cash into assets, such as equities, that can generate higher returns.

Highlighting this point is a widening gap between dividend yields and interest

rates. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is likely to leave cash rates on hold for another 12 months, and investors will find it increasingly attractive to source income from riskier assets such as equities rather than leaving it in cash accounts offering only lacklustre returns.

At present, the one-year forward dividend yield on the S&P/ASX 200 is 3.6 percentage points higher than the RBA cash rate – a record differential.

Have you been to Caloundra’s Twilight Markets yet? The markets operate over summer on Bulcock Beach Esplanade on Friday nights. Watch the sun set over the Glass House Mountains as you grab dinner, check out the roving entertainment, and pick yourself up a bargain from one of the many stalls. Make sure you arrive with an empty belly as the markets are known for an incredible selection of food from around the world. And be sure to leave room for dessert! The markets run every Friday from 5pm to 9pm until January 25.

Gelatissimo

FOODIE FIND

3 OF THE BEST – GELATO Summer means ice-cream, but not any old dairy dessert will do.

Fior Di Latte Gelateria, Mooloolaba It’s all happening at The Wharf. Not that you needed it, but Fior Di Latte offers another reason to visit Mooloolaba’s reinvigorated waterfront. But don’t go there and ask for vanilla – try the Turkish delight with pistachio praline, apple pie and custard, rhubarb, fairy floss or peanut butter.

Maleny Food Co, Maleny If you want dairy delights, Maleny is the place to go on the Sunshine Coast. Located on the main drag, Maleny Food Co offers up some pretty tempting gelato. There are more than 100 different flavours (and the list keeps growing) including old favourites and new tastes such as blueberry and lavender, blood orange and lychee choc ginger. While you’re there stock up on some brie, Swiss and raclette cheeses from the fromagerie.

Fior Di Latt

e Gelateria

Gelatissimo – Kawana, Noosa G l i i K N and Mooloolaba The tricky thing will be choosing when you approach one of the region’s Gelatissimo stands. Do you go traditional with a rum and raisin, chocolate or cookies and cream? Or spice things up with a matcha green tea, red velvet or blood orange? For those who can’t handle dairy, try a fruity or chocolate (yes, chocolate) sorbet.

Green Zebra has called it ‘the dessert of summer’ and we can see (and taste!) why. The Kawana Island restaurant is dishing up this full-flavoured sweet of coconut pannacotta, caramelised mango and pomegranate dust, served with pistachio ice-cream. It’s fresh, tantalising and oh so delicious.

The exhibition runs until January 27.

With original songs, colourful costumes and plenty of dancing, BATS Theatre Company’s latest offering, The Princess and the Goblin, is the perfect school holiday entertainment for kids and adults alike.

MY TIME

FLAT OUT FANTASTIC The Eumundi Markets is heaven for foodies, and we’ve just come across another reason to head to the hinterland town on market day. Brazilian Tapioca offers cooked tapioca crepes with both sweet and savoury fillings.

Tapioca is made from the starch extracted from the cassava plant, it’s gluten free and there are vegan options, so everyone can enjoy one of these tasty crepes. But you can also buy a bag of tapioca so you can make these treats at home. Here’s what you do: 1. Pour the tapioca starch into a large bowl.

2. Slowly add water until it is moist but not excessively wet.

3. Place the mix into a sieve and sift the tapioca over a hot pan, making sure to cover all the pan.

4. Turn the tapioca after a minute or so.

5. Add the fillings of your choice. For a vegan lunch use hummus, mushrooms, sun-dried tomato, olives, red onion and spinach. Another great lunch combo is smoked salmon, guacamole, red onion, cream cheese and spinach, or chicken, pesto, cream cheese and spinach. For a dessert crepe add banana, strawberry, peanut butter, honey and cinnamon, and then drizzle with Nutella.

6. Enjoy!

BACK TO SCHOOL PROMOTION

Set up for success

I

t’s almost that time of year again with thousands of school-aged students gearing up for the new year.

For some children, it’s an exciting time as they look forward to mixing with friends, expanding their education and getting to know their new teachers. For others, it can induce a few back-to-school jitters.

Whatever your circumstances, we have compiled 10 back-to-school hacks to get your family ready, organised and on the right path to learning.

1. Plan a week’s worth of lunches and get the kids involved in the planning.

2. Dreading the thought of contacting all of those school books? Avoid the stress and purchase book covers from office stores.

3. Mentally prepare. Talk about school as often as possible with young children, particularly if they are heading into the classroom for the first time. It’s a nice idea to create a story about their new school routine and share it before bed each night.

4. Get the kids excited about heading back to school by allocating a budget and allowing them to help choose a new lunch box.

44 My Weekly Preview | January 11, 2019

44.indd 1

5. Prepare breakfast ahead of time to avoid that early-morning rush. Keep the fridge stocked with healthy and nutritious breakfast muffins, chia, yoghurt and muesli jars or vegetable frittata.

6. Ask your children to pack their school bags the night before, then all they have to do is add their lunch box.

7. Introduce a family calendar/timetable.

This way each member can easily keep track of appointments and after-school activities.

8. Create a fun and colourful after-school checklist for the children to follow. Include afternoon tea, homework, play time, chores and bath time.

9. Prepare healthy afternoon snacks and have them ready for when the kids get home. Try carrot sticks, cucumber, celery, hummus, crackers and cheese cubes.

10. The days of carrying a nappy bag may be over, but apply the same concept for a ‘school bag’ you keep in the car.

Keep it stocked with baby wipes for those last-minute cleanups, tissues, bandaids, some spare socks, any sport uniforms you may need and healthy, nonperishable snacks.

We live in a rapidly changing world. A world in which, statisticians claim, 80 per cent of the jobs our children will do have not yet been invented. At Grammar we recognise the need to prepare students for their future, to set them up for success we turn the spotlight on to learning and explicitly teach students what successful learners do.

On top of developing a firm foundation of literacy and numeracy, we develop a skill set and mindset which assists our learners to be the best version of themselves. We develop 21st century ‘learning assets’: thinking; communicating; collaborating; researching; and self-managing When we understand and practise our learning assets we also develop an inquiry mindset with our students where curiosity, questioning and wondering are celebrated and encouraged. We plan for students to do the heavy lifting through their learning so they are empowered and intrinsically motivated in their learning. Research has shown that later success in life is determined by students who display intrinsic motivation and true grit with their mindset.

In our learning environment we develop a safe haven for learning so our learners feel comfortable to take risks and push themselves into the courage zone where they try new, challenging learning experiences that will stretch their thinking.

We encourage our learners to display a growth mindset, based on the work of Carol Dweck, who coined the terms ‘fixed mindset’ and ‘growth mindset’ to describe the beliefs people have about learning and intelligence.

When students believe they can get smarter, they understand effort makes them stronger. Therefore they put in extra time and effort, and that leads to higher achievement.

Recent advances in neuroscience have shown the brain is far more malleable than we ever knew. Research on brain plasticity has shown how connectivity between neurons can change with experience.

With practice, neural networks grow new connections, strengthen existing ones, and build insulation that speeds transmission of impulses. These neuroscientific discoveries have shown us that we can increase our neural growth by the actions we take, such as using good strategies, asking questions, practising, and following good nutrition and sleep habits.

At the time these neuroscientific discoveries were gaining traction, researchers also began to understand the link between mindsets and achievement. It turns out, if you believe your brain can grow, you behave differently. So the researchers asked, “Can we change mindsets? And if so, how?”

This began a series of interventions and studies that prove we can indeed change a person’s mindset from fixed to growth, and when we do, it leads to increased motivation and achievement.

We recognise the important role parents and teachers play in developing a growth mindset through praise and feedback. This praise and feedback can either encourage a child to choose a challenge and increase achievement or look for an easy way out. For example, studies have shown that telling children they are smart encourages a fixed mindset, whereas praising hard work and effort cultivates a growth mindset.

When students have a growth mindset, they take on challenges and learn from them, increasing their abilities and achievement.

Just like the iceberg metaphor, success is what you see at the top; however, what often goes unnoticed is what lies underneath the iceberg in terms of determination, making mistakes, practise, effort, time and tenacity. In our primary school we prepare students with the skill set and the mindset to set them up as learners for life. As parents and educators we play a significant role through our everyday interactions.

THE BIGGEST LANDSCAPING TRENDS FOR 2019 From mindful gardening to healthier pools, here are some of the emerging outdoor trends we will find creeping into Australian backyards this year.

Mindful gardening Being in a natural environment has been proven to reduce stress levels, and for some people, gardening is all the therapy they need. Tending to plants by watering, planting and getting your hands in the earth, can elevate mood levels. Whether you have old garden beds that need revival, or start from scratch, even the smallest of gardens can bring you joy. Take the time to enjoy being outdoors and focus on the senses, the smell of the earth and plants, the feel of the water. You’ll thank us for it.

For style and strength choose COLORBOND® Steel

Staycation Holidays can be expensive as well as time consuming and difficult to plan. The latest answer is to create your own piece of paradise at home to enjoy year round. The key is to keep the area low maintenance to minimise workload and yet invest in a few luxurious items to up the relaxation vibes. Install outdoor speakers, a firepit, hammock, pretty lighting and a comfortable chair or two. A water feature is also a good idea.

Natural pools These beautiful pools are trending in a huge way. A natural swimming pool uses magnesium to clean the water, rather than the usual chlorine. Users say they leave the water feeling refreshed and there is none of that lingering chlorine smell.

Your hair will more than likely feel silkier and there will be little, or no, irritation to your eyes.

Taking the outdoors in There is nothing new about this concept, but 2019 does promise to see an even bigger focus on introducing natural elements inside the home.

We will see a resurgence of vertical gardens and more alfresco areas attached to living spaces.

Stylish glassed indoor gardens will also create a unique focal point in the home.

Greener entrances New and renovated homes provide the opportunity to introduce a sophisticated and unique entry point to your home. We are confident that we will start to see more green and natural entrances and walkways into homes.

A combination of stone, timber, plants and water will create the look.

Focus on food The interest in growing one’s own food has scaled in recent years, but people are now starting to realise that you don’t have to be a bonafide veggie gardener to get in on the concept. We will start to see a variety of plants interweave to create a varying landscape. From herbs to natural, droughtefficient plants right through to vegetables and pops of colour – try it all.

Don’t assume you know how a loved one is thinking or feeling. Due to this week’s confusing celestial cocktail, you’re probably way off the mark. So, bide your time, observe closely and say very little. Tuesday is terrific for intuitive insights and creative pursuits.

You pride yourself on your well-rounded personality but it will be difficult to balance head and heart this week. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try! Loved ones or work colleagues will attempt to throw you off balance or press your buttons.

Money matters look confusing on Monday, especially if your finances are linked with a friend or family member. So, avoid a major fiscal move until everyone is on the same page. Avoid gossip and don’t let your jealous side get the better of you.

On Monday you could feel down in the dumps about a personal issue or a family matter, as Neptune leaves you feeling confused or discouraged.

Don’t give up, Sagittarius! Lay low until the fog lifts and you’re feeling more robust.

You’ve got the power again this week … just make sure you use it wisely.

Trying to control others could lead to confusion, so step back and reassess.

The more you try to assert authority (especially with loved ones), the more unpredictable the week will be.

With four planets in your solitude zone, many Aquarians have been feeling antisocial, and you’re hesitant to trumpet your talents. But with Venus and Jupiter in your business zone - the more you network, the more successful you’ll be.

Jupiter and Neptune are at odds, so expect confusion and low motivation as you find yourself lost in a quagmire of possibilities.

Plus, you need to be cautious ... if something looks too good to be true, then it probably is!

THE ULTIMATE PENTHOUSE

D

on’t miss this incredibly rare opportunity to take ownership of the Sunshine Coast’s most exclusive and exquisite rooftop residence – the ultimate status symbol in the heart of Mooloolaba’s vibrant Esplanade.

Sea Pearl Mooloolaba puts you in the centre of one of Australia’s most desirable beachfront addresses.

Rising above the very best of boutiques, restaurants and cafes, Sea Pearl Mooloolaba is not only an investment in lifestyle, it’s said to be the investment of a lifetime, perfectly positioned opposite Mooloolaba’s north-facing patrolled beach.

G1 Property’s Simon Guilfoyle says, “This prime two-storey penthouse is arguably one of Australia’s best beach skyhomes comprising unmatched 1165 square metres of luxurious high-end finishes, internal private elevator, grand staircase, deluxe marble surfaces and chandeliers, cinema, two butler’s kitchens, two gas fireplaces, rooftop spa, two barbecue areas, 12 car spaces, two offices, seven store rooms and there’s access to the resident’s gym, steam room, cinema and swimming pool. Trophy beach homes like this are rare to find, let alone to own.”

The Sunshine Coast region’s healthy property market is supported by strong employment and sound investment in infrastructure.

These include the region’s new international airport, the installation of the high-speed submarine cable that will connect us to Asia and the US by 2020; the new SunCentral CBD and Sunshine Coast Hospital Health Precinct as well as the our growing University of the Sunshine Coast.

“This prime twostorey penthouse is arguably one of Australia’s best beach skyhomes”

Properties of this quality in these locations are virtually unobtainable as old knockdown homes are selling from $700,000 to $800,000.

Essentially a private oasis, it has a totally self-contained living zone (which could become a great Airbnb income earner for the permanent resident). Features include a huge north-facing covered deck adjacent to the large pool, new kitchen with stove benches and self-closing drawers, polished timber floors and ceiling fans.

The main living area features two large living areas and three large built-in bedrooms, all done ready for you to enjoy.

orizons North estate is located in the southern area of the quiet enclave of Woombye, an increasingly popular semi-rural town, which is close to Nambour and Maroochydore.

The previous stages of the 105-lot development sold out immediately and stage four is now planned as the final land release. Stage five of Horizons North is

selling now and is sure to sell out fast.

Each of the 26 lots in stage five has a direct northern aspect with a minimum land size of 800 square metres, and at affordable prices it’s no wonder there are many buyers lining up for this stage. Title registration is due in May 2019 and both owner-occupiers and investors have already paid deposits.

A real highlight of the estate is the finish with masonry sandstone walls and landscaping. Further, the estate has a level-one compaction rating, as well as all underground services being brought up onto each site.

Horizons North is a short walk to the town and is close to shops, schools and other facilities.

Local builder Simon Larke has built several high-quality homes and duplexes in the estate. “Duplexes have been very favourable for investors with solid rental returns and several house and land buyers have seen their value increase since construction finished,” Mr Larke says.

As well as Larke Property Group, other builders in the estate include Dwyer Quality Homes, Peter Brock Homes, Sea Vista and Superior Built Homes.

leaves almost nothing for the buyer to do apart from build their home.

“In previous stages we have paid particular attention to the rock walls, landscaping and general presentation of the estate, which the owner-occupiers and investors have really liked.”

In the coming stage, houses, duplexes, and dual-key lots starting from 800 square metres will be available.

SURF REPORT

with MWP’s man in the water

This is bloody torture! Onshore, onshore, onshore… arghhhhh.

Does it ever end? Now I have friends getting excited surfing one-and-a-half-foot waves. What the hell?

This is weird stuff, peeps. So my theory is if it is crap here it MUST be pumping somewhere, like yin and yang. We need to find the yang of these terrible yin conditions.

Make sense?

Does anyone remember the Stubbies contest at Burleigh years ago, when it was so flat a huge boat was trying to generate waves? Keep safe peeps!
