(FROM THE ARTICLE: LIVE PURPOSEFULLY Without work-imposed structure, some people start to drift, with one day blurring into the next. Setting goals and taking steps to achieve them can help restore a sense of purpose and achievement, O’Neill says. O’Neill started her post-Rutgers life by setting five goals: finishing the book she was writing; staying active in financial education; cultivating friendships; “doing lots of fun things and new things”; and staying healthy by walking 10,000 steps daily, eating healthy foods and getting at least 7 hours of sleep each night. (Tending to your physical well-being is key: 81% of retirees in a 2014 Merrill Lynch study cited good health as a key ingredient for a happy retirement.) Achieving specific, measurable goals can help people redefine their concept of productivity, which is important to many people’s sense of self-worth, O’Neill says. Goals also can help offset a tendency to put things off. People who are used to saving and delayed gratification may have trouble “flipping the switch” to spending and enjoying their lives, O’Neill says. But time, good health and energy aren’t infinite. Many people in her 55+ community in Ocala, Florida, struggled during the pandemic not just because their plans were canceled, but because of an acute awareness that the clock was ticking, she says. “It wasn’t just two years lost, it was two good years,” O’Neill says. “You don’t know how many of those you have left.”)

ILLINOIS NEWS TODAY
— AP-NORC Poll: Many Republicans are worried about the party’s future – AP
(DIERSEN: You can tell if a) those who lead your Republican township/ward party organization, b) those who lead your Republican county party organization, and c) your representative on the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) are pro-Trump or anti Trump by the way they treat their Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains. From what I see, ever-increasingly, Milton Township Republican Organization leaders, DuPage County Republican Central Committee leaders, and the 6th Congressional District IRP SCC representative are anti-Trump. As anti-Trumpism builds, they will do more and more and more to get rid of Republican Precinct Committeemen who do not hate Trump.)
https://illinoisnewstoday.com/ap-norc-poll-many-republicans-are-worried-about-the-partys-future-wgn-radio-720/317398/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans also have a lot of concerns about their party. Less than half, 41% of Republicans, say they are optimistic about the future of the GOP. Only 13% say they are “very” optimistic. And one-third, 33% say they are pessimistic . . .Polls show that Trump remains the commander of the party. Most former presidents tend to give up the spotlight after resigning, but Trump continues to insist on his power, holds rallies, supports and teases the 2024 comeback run. While 60% of the population has a negative view of Trump, 76% of Republicans have a positive view of him. And most want him to maintain at least some influence over the Republican Party in the future. Almost half of Republicans, 47%, say Trump should exert “more” influence on the party’s future, and another 34% say he should have “slight” influence. It states. Only 18% say Trump should have nothing. . .For the 2020 elections, 62% of Republicans say it is “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the elections. He was dismissed by a number of judges, including some of the state election authorities and his own attorney-at-law president. In contrast, only 38% are “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the January 6 incident, in which a group of Trump supporters slammed the Capitol in an attempt to stop the change of power. It states that. Only 10% of Republicans, like Democrats, say that democracy is working “very” or “very” well in this country today. But Republicans are more negative than Democrats. 63% of Republicans say democracy isn’t working well. Only 17% say they think the country is heading in the right direction.)
— A community on the outskirts of Chicago (Olympia Fields) that overcomes obstacles to the homes of black and Latin residents – Markus McGnie
(DIERSEN: I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old. The down payment came from what I earned a) working for IRS full-time for the previous 15 months, first in Chicago, and then in Harvey and b) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights part-time for the previous 18 months and full-time for the 7 months before that. That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

(DIERSEN: Putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters like I do each and every morning and each and every evening requires at least 10 hours of work each and every day.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/07/20/opinion/covid-return-to-office.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There’s a point at which we simply cannot squeeze any more useful work out of ourselves, no matter how many more hours we put in. Studies show workers’ output falls sharply after about 48 hours a week, and those who put in more than 55 hours a week perform worse than those who put in a typical 9 to 5. Even during the pandemic, as work hours shot up, output stayed flat, which means productivity actually fell.)

(DIERSEN: GAO audits IRS. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, that is, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10. For the rest of my GAO career, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates viciously used that against me big time. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the pay cut and downgrade showed that GAO considered the following to be worthless a) my having worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels (currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) my having passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my having earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and d) my almost having completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Free college, universal preschool among the goals for Pritzker in his bid for second term – Dean Olsen
(DIERSEN: Republicans should blast Pritzker for promoting dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/2021/07/21/gov-pritzker-cutting-corporate-welfare-help-expand-education/8048035002/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy said in a statement that Pritzker’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been a failure. “Gov. Pritzker failed our most vulnerable in their time of need,” said Tracy, a Springfield resident. “When our children missed an entire year of in-person education, Pritzker was silent while political teachers unions forced children to stay home even when the science and CDC said they should be back in school. “When thousands of Illinoisans were laid off from work, they went weeks without help from Pritzker’s incompetent state unemployment agency,” Tracy said. “And when our nation’s elderly heroes needed protection from the virus in our state facilities, the tragic mistakes of the Pritzker administration led to the death of 36 veterans at LaSalle Veterans Home.”)

EVANSTON PATCH
— ‘White Victimhood’: Teacher’s Critical Race Theory Suit Condemned. Dozens of demonstrators gathered Tuesday at James Park to denounce a lawsuit filed last month by District 65 drama teacher Stacy Deemar. – Jonah Meadows
(DIERSEN: In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, which they did. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have no problem with the aforesaid. According to them, I should the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion big time, that is, pay reparations big time, because I am White, male, healthy, draft avoider, non-poor, Protestant, 100% German American, conservative, Republican, married since 1978, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)
