Embrace this day with an enthusiastic welcome, no matter how it looks. - Dieter F. Uchtdorf

So, I have decided to make a few changes.. in my personal life, as well as this blog. Typically I write about my day, or my week, a recent activity, a friend, or maybe something fun I made or would like to make. But lately I haven't written at all. I find myself on my own blog on a regular basis wanting to make a new post, yet realizing I have nothing to post about. Because in my time I am at work, or on Facebook, or calling my mom a million times a day, or daydreaming on Pinterest... as I think of these activities I become disgusted with myself. Because I start to realize I can't put scripture study, or personal development, service.. on that list. Those are the things I want to see there, or be able to put there.

With that being said, today I have decided to turn this blog into a "personal development" blog. Somewhere I can write about becoming a better me. Where I can talk out the words I read of our prophet, and general authorities. I am not by any means quitting my "social" aspect of life, but managing my time to where this is my priority. Where Heavenly Father and my Savior are my priority.

I talked about my goals in my last post.... but that has changed. I am still pumped an excited about this new year, but from a different light. Instead of loosing 20 lbs, I want to be healthy. I want to gain more spiritual growth and become more like my Savior. I want to live a life he will be proud of. I want to be the kind of person people can look up to. I want to serve those around me and prepare for a mission that I could be serving by the end of this year, or in thirty years. Prepare to be a wife, and a mother. And ultimately, prepare myself for the last day. Prepare myself to stand blameless before God, that I may return to him.
