Yes, believe it or not, I have taken up reading. I hope to finish my first book in years within the month!!! This is a big deal. I am reading "How to Win Friends and Influence People". I read most of it about a year ago and never finished it. My new goal has been inspired by the Family Home Evening that Jaret and I had on Monday. He liked the talk that was given in Elders Quorum so we read it together. It was about goal setting. The speaker, Elder Christensen, suggested that new years goals should include four categories:
1. Increase in Wisdom
2. Strengthen Physical Health
3. Become More Sociable
4. Increase in Spirituality
I think most people set #2 & #4 in their new years resolution but I was most surprised by #3. Anyway, Jaret and I set goals. Here are mine:
1. Read a book of value
2. Work out at least twice a week
3. Read "How to Win Friends and Influence People"
4. Read 2 Pages in the Book of Mormon each day and make my personal prayers more meaningful.
I don't think I've ever set a New Years Resolution and remembered it by the end of the Year. Maybe next year will be different.
