Changing the Way America Corrects Itself Now, romance with the written word doesn’t have to be inter- rupted by an unexpected error. Whatever it is that needs to be erased, eliminated or just wiped out, ‘Tombow’ 5 new Mono Correction Tape sees that it disap- pears, Working only in a world of mistakes, oversights and changes of mind, Mono Tape zeros in on the error and, with no mess, sweepa it into oblivion, To correct a mistake,,.whether it be a letter, word or sentence, any portion of printed or design material...a flick of the tape, hold asifit were a pen or pencil, wipes out the error. The correction then can he typed, writ- | ten or sketched where the error had beer Only about 3 percent of executives write down their goals. However, peo- ple who actually write down their goals increase their chances of obtain- ing them, So, why aren’t more professionals following the first lesson in Time Management [01? Because, as an adult, it can be diffi- cult to change the system you have already established. It is not too late, however, to teach your children haw to manage their time effectively. ; This back-to-school season is the perfect time to begin helping your chil- dren develop an effective time-man- agement system that will impact them throughout their lives. To help them develop time-management skills, per- sonal planners for students are the per- fect training devices. Personal planners can-assist students both in school and life by encouraging them to consider where.they are going and how they will get there. Once writ- ten down, their goals will become more tangible and, ultimately, students will feel more accountable for reaching those goals, To help your children make the most of their personal planners, empower them {fo take control of their lives by planning ahead, Help them prioritize what they must accomplish by break- ing the projects into pieces. Then, explain that they must determine what's important and what's not, and they should begin by accomplishing the important pieces first. Each day they should make a “what- to-do-loday” list, which includes important tasks to be completed and the steps needed to complete those tasks, Once a project has been com- pleted, it should be crossed off the list. In doing so, your children will know they are making progress and will feel a sense of accomplishment. Many student planners contain spe- cial places for students. to list their goals for specific classes and semes- ters. In fact, the new Super Shades* Schooi & Social Planner, from the Mead Corporation, includes a special section that encourages students to write down their goals each week. It also motivates them to think about their long-lerm goals by asking them lo write down what they hope to make happen five years from now. Similarly, Mead’s new No! Rules™ Student Life Planner challenges stu- dents to develop a game plan for life by including a “Commitment” page. This page is designed to motivate therm to write down not only their goals, but the date they hope to have accam- plished those goals. It also encourages them to plan ahead for work that needs to be completed each week, month and semester, “Time management has become such an important topic that schools have begun asking students to equip themselves with a planner,” says Ray Denison of Mead School and Office Products. “We have designed our stu- dent planners to help teach students good time-management skilis that they can take from the classroom to the boardroom.” Also, remember that your children’s . personal gaals are just as important to reach as their scholastic endeavors. It can be a purchase they want to make, a tcip they want to take or an athlelic goal they wanttoachieve. So, start your children out on the right foot by teaghing them the impor- tance of managing their personal and scholastic lives. They will thank you for it later. You can find an assortment of Mead's student planners at your local drugstore, discount store or warehouse club.

Recently, some makeup companies have been trying to put the fun back in the makeup experience. One in particu- lar, Jane by Sassaby, has made an effort lo provide affordable makeup, without sacrificing top-quality prod- ucts and packaging. This line has a universal retail price of $2.99, yet it resembles a high-priced department store brand. While affordability is important, here are some‘other things teens and parents should look for: * Trial sizes thal let the user try something new at a fraction of full-size cost. ¢ * Good brushes and applicators that make making up easier. Don’t use the ones that come with the product, they only make il harder to apply properly! * Free booklets with information on PARENTS LET TEENS CHOOSE their own makeup, according to aJane how to wear makeup. by Sassaby survey. The good news: Now, it’s affordable! According lo a recent survey, nine out of 10 teenage girls say that their parents let them make their own deci- siom about what makeup works for them.
