Week #1

The past couple weeks in this course have gone beyond the traditional textbook courses. I have been able to watch videos by professionals that haven given advice that is crucial for me in the beginning stages of my professional career. My goal is to not live a life of work, but rather live a life of meaning. As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I know that my purpose in life is to find a balance. Too often professionals lose sight of the importance of family as they try to do too much in one day. I love that I will be entering the professional workforce in a couple months. As much as this opportunity excites me, I am even more excited to raise a family with my husband. The end goal is the most important goal I will set in my life. To be completely honest, I’m not even sure what my next job will be or the job after that. I have a plan, but I also realize that my plan might not be what is best for me. I don’t think anyone expects a 21 year old to know what she will be doing in 10 years. I certainly don’t know but I do know what my spiritual goals are and I am confident those goals will help propel me to live a life with meaning.
