Welcome to this week's tips
Hi Everyone,

This week Jeff and I took a trip up to northern Michigan for my birthday. The first day was Kitch-iti-Kipi. The water is so beautiful. Salmon were all over in the water. We also went to Fayetteville Historical Village. A deer let us watch her eat apples. Slagh Beach was full of beautiful rocks.

Day 2 of our trip up north was rainy and windy. We lost internet - so no TV, no internet and no ATM. Everything had to be paid with by cash which we didn't have much of. We went to two lighthouses with our hoods zipped up. And we did a little bouncing around Escanaba. My birthday dinner was sandwiches from the grocery store deli.

On the way home, we drove through the Tunnel of Trees to enjoy the fall color. Many of the red leaves had fallen off all ready, but lots of vibrant yellow. We also went to the Shrine of the Cross.

Also, just a reminder the accountability group with procrastination course starts Wednesday if there are things you could use some support in getting done.

Weekly Simplicity Tips
  1. Have a happier trip by packing a light blocking face mask and ear plugs.
  2. Your life stays smaller when you don't allow yourself to make mistakes. Where are you holding back so you don't err?
  3. If your life feels loud and distracting, try driving without the music or audio on.
  4. Set up any eye appointments you need.
  5. Write a thank you note.
  6. Make plans for the last months of the year - 3 to 5 objectives.
  7. Get in touch with your power to make choices. Where are you acting as if you don't have a choice?

I am currently doing a group for decluttering and they are making such progress.

“Having someone to help you along the path of your goals is so important.” – Melissa

“A group helps to know I’m not alone, but also, quite unexpectedly, it makes me feel more determined to succeed in THEIR honor, or for their sake.” – Janet

“I have found that working alongside other people who are also tackling their goals has been supremely motivating for me. I feel inspired when I see/hear the successes of other group members and I feel excited to share my accomplishments with everyone. It’s much more interesting than working alone in my own little bubble and it’s fun to support and be supported!” – Janet W

“In Gretchen Rubin’s book, The Four Tendencies, I am classified as an Obliger. That means I’m someone who easily meets outer expectations but has trouble doing the things on my own to-do list. She suggests that having a system of outer accountability is a great way to meet my personal expectations. Beth’s various groups are the best method I’ve discovered for finding accountability partners who will help keep me on track so I can both start and complete projects. Thanks so much, Beth!” – Carol

I wanted to keep the progress going for them, so I thought we could have an accountability group from Nov. 1-Nov 20th. $10
