my progress

I'm really happy that the Church opened up Personal Progress to mothers and other women in the Church. Here's why:
I've had some things in the back of my mind
that I've been wanting to accomplish for quite some time.
I've just felt like I haven't had the time ...
(isn't that always the case?)
Well, Personal Progress is the motivation I need to actually get to these tasks.
Here's an example of some of my long-delayed goals:
* transcribe my missionary journal, print out copies and have them bound for my kids
* do a will (yup ... I've had statements of wishes, but no will)
* finish my book (details to come at some later date)
... and lots, lots more.
Added benefit:
Each day carries lots of purpose for me.
I'm now not just doing the must-do-mundane and trying to do something worthwhile each day. Rather I absolutely accomplish something (often somethingS) worthwhile every day!
How grateful I am for inspired leaders!
