A Marriage: Precious, Protected & Lasting

 

“Marriage: If you want something to last forever, you treat it differently. You shield it and protect it. You never abuse it. You don’t expose it to the elements. You don’t make it common or ordinary. If it ever becomes tarnished, you lovingly polish it until it gleams like new. It becomes special because you have made it so, and it grows more beautiful and precious as time goes by.”

~ F. Burton Howard,
Emeritus General Authority – The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

How Long Will Justice Be Crucified & Truth Buried?

“How long will justice be crucified and truth buried?”

“How long? Not long! I came to say to you, this afternoon, however difficult the moment, however frustrating the hour, it will not be long because “truth crushed to earth will rise again”. How long? Not long, because “no lie can live forever”. How long? Not long, because “you shall reap what you sow”. How long? Not long, because the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

~ Martin Luther King, Jr.,

The Importance of Self-Care

“I honestly wish I understood the importance of self-care. Everything you go through, your business goes through. If you are not fully present, your business will suffer. Maintaining balance at all times should be your utmost priority and not something to be pushed off for later when you’re “more available.””

For Some the Journey Through Life is Quicker

“Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what’s to be,
A resting place along the road, to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys; different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things, but never meant to stay …
Our destination is a place, far greater than we know.
For some the journey is quicker, for some the journey is slow.
When the journey finally ends, we’ll claim a great reward,
and find an everlasting peace, together with the Lord.”

~ Author Unknown

Time is a fleeting commodity that can never be retrieved again so do it now, not tomorrow or the next day – now.”

Some of the Most Beautiful Parts of Life

While single, I couldn’t believe “how much people would judge a woman’s worth
or judge how successful she is based on whether or not she’s married.
And I’m not slamming marriage — marriage and family are some of the most beautiful parts of my life.

and I don’t think a woman should be looked at like,
‘Oh, you’re still not married?’ Why do people still think that way?!”

Time-Binding the To-Do Lists

“Block your calendar to achieve wins.
One of the most common mistakes people make at the office
is not turning to-do lists into time-bound, effective project lists.
I’ve found that people who have mastered this hack
are far more likely to deliver tasks on time.

It’s simple: For each of the big things on your list,
block off the amount of time on your calendar
that you estimate the task might take — and
then add 33% more time just to be sure.”

~ James Reinhart,
Co-founder of thredUp.com

Fixed-Schedule Productivity

“I do what I call ‘fixed-schedule productivity’.
I start with the deadline that my day ends at 5:30 p.m.
and create an ideal schedule based on my priorities.
Then, I work backwards to make everything fit —
ruthlessly culling obligations, turning people down,
becoming hard to reach, and shedding marginally useful tasks
along the way. My experience in trying to make that fixed schedule
a reality forces any number of really smart and
useful in-the-moment productivity decisions.”

It tracks what applications I use down to the second and
gives me insight on how I work.”

The Most Valuable Result of All Education

Thomas Henry Huxley, English Biologist

~ Thomas H. Huxley, 1825-1895
Biologist

“Perhaps the most valuable result of all education
is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do,
when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not;
it is the first lesson that ought to be learned;
and however early a man’s training begins,
it is probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly.”

Miracles: Everything is Possible

“Constructive action works miracles.  Emphasize what can be done, rather than what cannot.  Complaining wastes time and energy.  Things improve when more people build up and fewer tear down.  With God’s help, everything is possible. .”
