Week 8, Bring It!

                                   11-6-21

WHAT I LEARNED

I Loves this week on so many levels. I feel like it was a much needed break from so many tough weeks in a row.  To top it off, I got to study an AMAZING talk by one of my FAVORITE Prophets President Gordon B. Hinckley. The talk is titled, "Stand True and Faithful".  One of my favorite parts was the following, "Be true to yourselves, my dear friends. Be true to one another,  your friends and associates. Look for the good in those about you, and emphasize that good.  Never go around gossiping about your associates or speaking unkind words concerning them. Such words will only backfire to hurt you. Jehova has commanded, "though shalt not bear false witness." Exodus 20:15 " (*A)

I really loved reading this. It is something that seems like common sense to me. However, I know a lot of this is because of life experiences that I have had. Reading it from a Prophet of God, and a scripture reference just solidifies all of this is God's desires. 


WHAT I STILL HAVE TO LEARN 

I am working hard to be able to reach my goal for our family to be able jump right in on 1-1-22 with learning and sticking with the goal of financial freedom. 


REFERENCE 

(*A) Stand True and Faithful,  Gordon B. Hinckley

Week 5 of my Entrepreneurial Journey

WHAT I LEARNED I feel as though I am being tested to see how badly I want this! Will I be like Erica Mills (*a), and take every opportunity, good and bad to learn and grow? Will I just say, "I am a mom and wife and that is where I need to be", and push my entrepreneurial journey aside? This isn't even a real question to me after this week! We have had two very unexpected deaths occur in the past week. One was a very beloved lady in our ward. Seemingly very healthy, and this news came as a huge shock to all who knew her. Glee lived her namesake, that's for sure. The other happened just a few days later. My husband's uncle had just spent two weeks with his daughter and their family, before traveling cross country to live with his sister and brother in law. He did not make it. He was found face first on the side of the road by a trucker. Again, young, healthy and a complete shock. The next huge event was one we have been dealing with for a couple of months now. We de...

My Journey continues with week 6

                                                                                                                                             10-23-21 WHAT I LEARNED I would like to say that this week was a phenomenal one and that I learned a ton. The reality is, this week stunk so bad! My family has had so many trial lately, as have some of our best friends. Plus everyone in our house was sick a couple of days. I found myself very thankful for a light week with school. On top of it all, I rolled my right ankle so badly, that the outside was swollen to the size of a softball....

Week 11

                                                                                                                         11-27-21 WHAT I LEARNED This week was a crazy busy, yet very blessed Thanksgiving week. My favorite part about this week was by far reading "Formula for Success", by Thomas S. Monson. The part the stood out to me the most was the following; "From those parables I would like to suggest that if we are really to be, a chosen generation, we have the responsibility to be prepared, to be productive, to be faithful, and to be fruitful as well........" He goes on to explain how we are to accomplish this. He says; "First, f...
