personal progress

[toni94]

for those who have completed personal progress, how has it helped you to prepare you for later on in life?

I'm so close!

I did it a hundred years ago. Way back then, it was more fluff and less substance...however, in a very practical sense it helped. One main focus was goal setting. In our book, we set a goal, wrote the steps, set dates to accomplish the steps, and chose someone to whom to be accountable. This has proven to be very useful!

I was just released as YW President after two years. I am partly finished with the current PP program. I have found that personal progress can really help a woman to rely on her relationship with Christ.

I finished it! It helped so much. There are so many reasons why. It built my testimony, it helped me practice goal-setting, but mostly it cleared up my attitude. In seventh grade (Ugh, I hate to admit this!) I was not the greatest girl. I hung out with the wrong friends, told perverted jokes, and was just overall not the best person to be around, and I knew it. I started doing personal progress a little later though, because I was bored, and realized that I was about halfway done! From there I went, as my leader at the time put it, Gung Ho at it for the next several months. I finished the program three months before I became a Mia Maid. I look back at it, and I can see every little detail I improved on. I started by not hanging out with certain people and groups, which led to not hearing more perverted jokes. I realized how awful it was to tell those jokes, so I stopped, and without those not-great people I didn't hear any more of them. My thoughts became more positive, and with it my self-esteem. I started caring about myself and others a little more. I read the scriptures. (In fact, the Virtue 10-hour project, Reading the BOM, was probably the biggest influence). I can say with pride that I am at least five times the person, character-wise, that I was a couple years ago. I am working at my honor bee right now, and enjoying every minute of it.

To help others in life one should be an all-rounder.The most important thing is not to have idea of leader to thing that he or she is superior of anyone .The behaviour of that person shouid be very calm and friendly.

I realize this was posted a while ago, but don't give up! YW PP has helped me in ways I couldn't foresee. As those before mentioned, it gave me purpose and the ability to set reasonable and worthy goals. Some of it did feel a bit "busy," but the rewards have been great. I made a scrapbook while I did personal progress as I finished each value, and wound up taking that on my mission with me. Whenever I felt down and out, I would pull that out when we got back to the apartment and thumb through it and it would energize me again. I was by no means "wonder girl" and did not stand necessarily out in my group of girls, but I grew so much during those years. It is a worthy accomplishment and I feel that it brought me so much closer to Christ. Now you have made me want to go through the book again! :-) You can do it!

I never completed my Personal Progress book but if I had, I'm sure a lot of positives would have come from it. I hope my daughter will be active in YW and take interest in her Personal Progress book.

I began by not clinging out with certain individuals and categories, which led to not listening to more perverted humor. I noticed how terrible it was to tell those humor, so I ceased, and without those not-great individuals I didn't listen to any more of them. My ideas became more good, and with it my self-esteem.

With the rapid development of our society, the campus is no longer an "ivory tower". Students must get in touch with the world out side the campus so that they can adapt themselves to edmonton escort society more quickly when they graduate.

Almost all students keep themselves informed through TV, radio broadcasts and newspapers. Some of them even edmonton escorts take up a part-time job in their spare time. such as working as tutors and serving in some fast food restaurants. All this enables students to keep in touch with society.

Now the summer vacation will come edmonton asian escort and l've already found myself a job-working as a typist in an office. I am good at typing and I think I can do this job well. It's a good chance for me to get to know society, to learn how edmonton asian escorts to get along with my colleagues and to see how my knowledge is put into practice. When the next semester begins, I'll still try to get some job of this kind at every weekend. Regardless of the pay, I think the most important thing is that I can really know a lot about society.
