Enduring to the End

Week 8

What I Learned:
I learned that being persistent and consistent, even when things are or become difficult, is needed to obtain mastery and to become successful-to fulfill the full measure of our creation and potential. We must always keep enduring and keep trying, no matter how long it takes. We must not underestimate ourselves and the Lord; we must not doubt ourselves and what we can do. And the Lord will bless us to push forth and accomplish all we are meant to accomplish. With the Lord, we can do amazing things!
I also learned that we need to get to the source of issues and problems. If something continues to go wrong as we keep trying to pursue the same idea/goal and are doing what we can to be persistent and consistent, then taking a step back and trying to figure out the source of the issues will help us to better progress and see improvement. In addition, we need to know the reasons why we do or do not do things. For example, I know that I desire to become a Nutritionist. I have wanted this for quite some time; I desire to help people with wellness in all areas. However, I used to fear the higher level math classes; this fear made it so I did not first choose to become a Nutritionist. Now, I recognize that fear and am able to be aware so I may build up my confidence in myself and trust in the Lord and what He desires for me.

What I Need to Learn:
I need to learn how to network in better ways. I have learned how to effectively network; however, putting it to practice after a long while of differing conditioning is a little difficult. I will continuously practice this effective networking and strive to implement this in my practice.

Faith and Big Dreams

Week10 What I Learned: This week's readings felt like an answer to my prayers. I have been striving to know what career path to choose, and the career path I desire to pursue requires much hard work and more years in school than I ever used to plan on attending. I had felt the Lord's confirmation of this career path at a previous time, and I knew I desired this path, so I felt pretty strongly that this path (to become a Nutritionist) was one that would be good for me and my family. However, in the last couple of weeks and at the beginning of this week, I felt very inadequate. I didn't believe in myself and in my abilities to push through with more schooling and start my own practice as a Nutritionist. I didn't have faith in myself to be able to accomplish these big dreams I had, and I wasn't implementing faith in Christ and His ability to help me to do and become more than I am now. I was asking the Lord at the beginning of this week if I should pursue this caree...

Entrepreneurship and Balance

Week 11 What I Learned: For our businesses, we have to have passion and have to believe that it all is worth it. It is always a struggle to balance life and family, but if we believe enough in all that we do with family and work, we will make time for both and strive and do all we can to get that time in for all our passions. We must put the Lord and our families first, and all things will be balanced in the ways they need to be balanced. What makes life balanced is the understanding that “I am here now” and “I am going to be there then”. Being mindful and present in each moment is finding life balance. Setting priorities and planning our day in accordance with those priorities (shifting out what we don't want in life) is a way to balance. We can stay balanced by being ethical. Never put yourself into a situation where you can’t say no, where you can’t be flexible. We need to be flexible in our plans. We must pay attention to what is important, ask ourselves the right quest...
