Participant Feed
Reflection, encouragement, and relationship building are all important aspects of getting a new habit to stick.
Share thoughts, encourage others, and reinforce positive new habits on the Feed.
To get started, share “your why.” Why did you join the challenge and choose the actions you did?
I organized my house yesterday, tossing a lot of old things I didn't need. I thought twice about how I could recycle some of the items. It was a great feeling to take a further step to keep plastic out of landfill.
We usually fly to our summer home as it is over 900 miles away, but driving is not that bad. It gives some time for reflection and deep thinking as the miles pass by. As long as I have the time I will continue to drive there.
