One of my favorite talks from President Hinckley is the talk Stand True and Faithful. One of the reasons I like this talk so much is because he talks about being true to yourself, faith, to others, parents, heritage and Church. I remember when he gave this talk. I was a Junior in High School. My junior year of high school was not my favorite year of high school. I often felt alone because of friend drama and guy drama and family drama. But when I heard him say "BE TRUE" I wanted to make some changes about myself and start being more true to the things that mattered most. When I heard this talk for the first time, I really liked how he said that young women should get all the schooling they could get. You will need it for the world. When I was in Young Women's, I would say all the time that I wanted to go to school and get a job. I would get married but I wanted to make sure I had schooling first. This was because my Grandma became a widow at a young age. Because my gr...

These course this semester tell me I don't really want to be one. I like creating things and selling them to friends and family for the cost that I made them. That is the part I really like. As for all the other parts, Marketing, analytics, budgets etc. Nope! I don't like it one bit. I like the things I do at work even though this week at work as been so busy that the stress has been overwhelming. At one point I thought I might lose my job because of something I did. I am good worker but I accidentally sent an email to a third part with someone's private information outside the company. I didn't want to be responsible for that person to have fraud on their account and I told someone as soon as I could. My mind raced around the fact that if I lost my job, bright side, I'm learning the skills to be an entrepreneur and I could start my own business and put my heart and soul into that. My husband found that idea comical. Well, I didn't need to worry to hard beca...

Ah! These last few weeks have been stressful. I have often wonder why I am doing this thing called school? I know I have the skill to go to school. I know if I apply myself more I can gain more character. But I just need a little luck in getting everything done. I feel like I am being pulled into all sorts of directions and I don't know where I want to begin. I make lists after lists to make sure I am getting what I need to done. But alas, I am turning things in late and begging for forgiveness. I really liked what James E. Faust said in his talk about Perseverance, "Perseverance is demonstrated by those who keep going when the going gets tough, who don't give up even when other say 'it can't be done'" No one has said to me to give up. Only those lovely voices in my head that make me feel like I am defeated. So this is me persevering, turning things in late because, I chose to attend a child's activity, stayed late at work to get my job done or n...

This question has come up multiple times since I started school. I think about it for the assignment and feel good about my decision and then the next semester starts and I get asked again how will I measure my life? Well I don't know if I have the answer anymore because I have had to second guess myself on multiple occasions. But I do know what I want out of life. And this is it; I want to feel successful in my job. That I made a difference in those that I work with, I want to see my children's hope and dreams accomplished so I want to help them be successful, and I want my relationship with my husband a solid foundation that we will stay together. For work I train people to take calls, I am sure I have mentioned this before, I love the thrill of getting up and talking to people. To learn about them and take a genuine interest in their life. I think starting a new job is scary. I haven't changed my full time job for 14 years, I am fascinated why people change jobs all ...
