​​​I will admit freely, and it will be no shock to you, that I devour nonfiction books that offer insight and information about how to improve the quality of one's life. TSLL blog and premise is by design a destination to offer readers tips, ideas and ways to live their best life. And while seeking knowledge will, I wager, be something I will always do, often when we seek information, we find that much of what we need already existed within each of us.

The books, the blogs, the lectures, the sessions are merely the keys that open the door to understanding how to see what has always been there waiting to be discovered.

This week a couple of tasks were tackled in my life that reminded me of this fact. While I won't go into detail, suffice it to say, when I finally took action, doing so was affirming and reassuring.

The tickle of curiosity about how to improve your life, if it keeps tickling you, investigate. If you cannot dismiss from your mind what you, after much reading and searching, are quite confident would be a significant improvement, take action. Stretch yourself. Eventually, you will find what you are looking for. And in that moment, you will begin to trust your curiosity, and yourself, more resolutely moving forward.

In this week's newsletter TSLL 2015 Holiday Guide has returned. One of the items offers a steep discount on signed copies of Choosing The Simply Luxurious Life: A Modern Woman's Guide, but it's only through Saturday December 5th, so be sure to place your order. Cyber Monday appears to have turned in to an entire weekend of busy online shopping, and while many of the sales have wrapped up, some have continued, so be sure to check out the sales and promos I share in this week's post.

​But back to living our best lives. This week's episode of The Simple Sophisticate garnered a great response from listeners and readers, and it was one I was eager to share. Why Not . . . Be a Strong Woman? offers 15 characteristics of such a woman as well as the benefits of finding the courage within yourself to be one. I think you might enjoy. 

​Well, when the newsletter is delivered that means the weekend has arrived, and I absolutely cannot wait for this weekend as I will be turning on the festivity and cheer. The adventure begins by looking for a holiday tree and then to decorate the house. Needless to say, the Christmas music will be filling my sanctuary and chocolate chaud will be made and enjoyed. Wishing you a lovely first weekend in December, and thank you for subscribing to TSLL newsletter. Until next week, I'll see you on the blog!
