Lesson #3 Journal Entry
Lessons Learned
One of the lessons that I learned (or rather, relearned) this week is that we need to trust answers received from the Holy Ghost and when you are given the answer, that is the answer! I have been feeling like I should maybe look for a different job. My current job has very little to do with what I'm majoring in or what I hope to do when college is over. I know I will have to work on some internships soon, so I've been thinking about getting a job with more relevance to my chosen field. I've always prayed about it and the answer has been "wait for spring." After doing lots of readings for this class, I felt like I really, really want to get on with it and get a new job. I decided I would pray about it again and take that as my final answer. The answer hit me so strong. I think that Heavenly Father was tired of being asked. I should know how He feels, I'm a mom, I often tell my kids not to ask me the same question twice. The answer said "I've said it once, I shouldn't have to say it again, WAIT FOR SPRING!" So I am going to continue on the path I am on now and wait for spring. Sometimes what the world may think is the best path and what is the best path Heavenly Father has planned for you, doesn't always line up. I have relearned that this week and hopefully by writing it down, I will remember it this time.
Lessons Not Yet Learned
I have started the "Mastery" book and I'm not sure what to think of it. I'm not really even close to a master at anything and I haven't been working towards mastering anything in a long time. I've been pondering what I should do to implement this concept, and I am feeling inspired to practice and "master" 10-key. It is a small, dumb thing, but something that I think will help me in my school work and future career. I think it may also be a good way to practice the concept of "mastery."
