Discovering My Individual Worth


This past weekend my ysa ward had a conference. I didn't make it to all of it which is disappointing, but I did make it to the last half. At the conference one of the speakers spoke to us about finding our career path, and strategies of finding it. She taught us a couple of ways that we can discover for ourselves what career path we should be taking. We are taught to "Seek learning, even by study and also by faith." So I hope that by searching out my true potential through study and faith, I will be able to find true happiness in serving God's children.
My first hope of learning is to ask you a question. What do you think I am good at? I would really like to know, because I may not think I am good at the things that you think I am good at.
My second act of studying and learning is to find places that offer the services that I'm interested in so I can gain more experience and grow in my interests. This also includes area's that you think I am good at. So please let me know what is going on with the skills you believe I have so I can grow.
My third act of learning about myself is to study out in my heart and mind the things my Father in Heaven has told me through my Patriarchal blessing. This will help me see how my Father in Heaven sees me, my duties, my responsibilities, my admonitions in life, and my promises and blessings. With my patriarchal blessing i will reveal clues to important decisions in my life. By defining my blessing in terms of those categories, many things will become more clear, more important, and reveal many reveltation about me and my life which may not be readily apparent. Which may be an item, phrase or blessing with may fit into figuring out who I am, my duties, my responsibilities, my admonitions, and my promises and blessings.
I know this may sound boring to you, but this is the time in my life where I'm most likely to question my status, and figure out where I go from here.
Lately I've been pondering on going to grad school, or just back to school in general. Whether I should be moving, or what I need to change in my life.
So to sum up please answer me this:
What do you think I'm good at?
What is your advice of what I should do, or how I can figure out what to do?
I love you all and appreciate your love and support each day of my life :)

When we see the effect one person can have on the lives of so many, it perhaps is no wonder that the Lord reminded us, “Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God” (D&C 18:10)
