Reflection

Don’t doubt yourself or the Lord Week 8 reflection  Carrie Walsman 2/20/23       I’m so grateful for this class. I feel like what we learn each week aligns with real life problems. I’ve recently received a prompting like I needed to do something, but it’s taking longer or not working out as well as I was hoping for. I know Heavenly Father has a plan for us, but I also know everyone has agency that can interfere sometimes.        This week we got to listen to a talk and long story short it was don’t doubt yourself with what you can do and don’t doubt the Lord. If we are doing our best to listen the Lord will open doors for us and we can see him provide ways. That was something I really needed to hear this week especially after my education and experienced was questioned. In the moment it stunned me and I laughed it off, I shouldn’t have let it hurt my confidence as much but I did.  I need to press forward with full faith in Christ and confidence in myself. I’m again so grateful for scho

 Stand True and Faithful  Carrie Walsman  2/16/23 One of the things I would like to reflect on is president Hickleys Talk Stand True and Faithful. Throughout the talk he is talking to the young women of the church and encourages them to stand up for what is right and keep the commandments at all times and in all things and in all places.  It made me think of having good business ethics, and having those align with the everyday life.  I believe it’s so important try to keep faithful where ever you are to have the constant companion of the Holy Ghost. By having the Holy Ghost as a constant companion you can make better choices and be directed in the path you’re supposed to take.  President Hickley also addresses the importance of receiving an education and goes onto say that this generation has so many opportunities.  In conclusion, president Hickley wanted to get across to be Faithful, have virtue, be true to ourselves, and recieve an education. 

Week 06 reflection What I learned  Carrie Walsman 2/3/23 Aloha from Hawaii  The learning still continues on vacation.  I really enjoyed this week's readings and videos. I felt like it was a great realignment back with Heavenly Fathers plan, and the iron rod.  Starting with the talk by President N. Eldon Tanner “Success Is Gauged by Self Mastery”  In the talk he proceeds to states “If you want to be successful or outstanding in any field of endeavor, it is important that you determine while young to be a great boy, and not wait to be a man to be a great man; and then have the courage and strength and determination to discipline yourself, apply self-control and self-mastery.”  I love this quote. It’s important to start early and decide now your morals and values and stick to them. This quote also reminded me of a code of conduct exercise that we did which had us write what we aren’t and are going to do.  Another good thing we read was about learning your industry, such as competitors

  "A Hero's Journey" Week 05 Reflection.  - Carrie Walsman This week we got to listen to one of my now Top 5 Talks which was "A Hero's Journey".  The talk was 22 minutes but it didn't take long for the speaker to grab your attention.  I would like to talk about 2 main points that ended up grabbing my attention. The first quote that stuck out to me was. " It’s all about you because using your gifts to change the world will change you in the process and you will realize you serve a force in the  universe that is  far bigger than you are." In the speech he tells the listeners to go ask 10 people what your best at. The goal here is to help find your talent and in doing that also your purpose. Talents a purpose line up fairly well. Lets break down the quote. its all about you using your gifts (talents) to change (serve) the world and in the process you will realize you serve a force (God) in the universe that is far bigger than you are. By using the
