Week 06 21st - 27th October

This week so far has been inspirational. I love that one should get to know your industry well. This type of knowledge never ends. It continues as you go through each day, learning from other from yourself. It is very important to learn from your mistakes and accept that you have made them.  As my week progressed and as it got to Thursday. I got so very tired. I didn't want to do anything but sleep. This is not like me. Towards the end of the week as I was wrapping up the rest of my assignments for the week, I came across a note I made that was mentioned from this week’s videos. I wrote down: "Set rules like we do when we eat." This was very profound to me and made me realise that if I try to stick to things even when it gets hard those hard times will feel easy.  I was falling a bit behind on institute assignments due to feeling so tired. I am still tired but feel that I need to still make priority for what’s important even though I have so many things to do. I was t...

Week 5 14th-20th October

What a week! It’s been tough having to work and look after children when you are sick. It’s been a very strange week, and I can't believe it’s over already. I loved ready about Erica Mill this week. I was able to relate to almost every detail of her business life. It made me think about mine a lot more and made me realise that I am nowhere near been ready to take my business to the next level. The Heros Journey's video was a great and powerful one. I quote: "What matters most isn't the prize at the end." That is true, because we expect these big rewards for the things we have done. The handshakes, the gratification, even the money. None of this is the Prize the Prize is the Life well live and spent. The phrase: Trying to not be the smartest person in the room." This stick out to me because those who have a lot to say and doesn't listen is doing just that. So, I realise that we need to learn to take time to listen to others so that we have something me...

Week 4 - 7th-13th October

It is amazing how each new week brings about new feelings towards the things that I have read and learnt. The launching leaders book make it so simple to just do the Six steps of the Formula and be happy. I'm into another week and have experienced a great one because of what I am learning. Its been alot of information this week and have felt that I have so much that it was quiet hard to focus on something.   My children are still more happy and content than ever before. Not to say that I have not been frustrated or come across potential issues in my job. It’s been so much easier to handle them because I put what is important first and dealt with having God on my side as my greatest mentor.  life is not all about ourselves and our own learning. It’s about the people in our lives. We are not just here to learn but here to help, guide and inspire those around us. If I can do that, I would have accomplished so much of my life’s purpose. Been a mentor in someone life ca...

Week 3 - 30th September to 6th October

This week has been a much slower week in my learning, where I was able to ponder more on the things I have read and learnt. We get so caught up in our jobs that we don’t have time to ponder. I am very grateful for the lessons I get out of my learning as I would not have been able to have gotten through last week’s work, without those lessons. I had a very busy schedule and didn't have any time to do reading and assignments during the week. So, I planned and made time over the previous weekend to get it all finished. This is what we have been taught, to prioritise our lives and have faith in all things.  I'm looking forward to this weekend for two reasons. One, it is General Conference and the lessons this week have coincided with the teachings and messages we receive at these gatherings, and two, my husband has returned from a 2-week business trip overseas and we will be able to spend some time together as a family.  I enjoyed learning about the success formulas of life becaus...
