Gonna Get There Someday

I have felt such a struggle in my heart lately about what I should do about my life's dreams and ambitions. I am constantly being tugged in all sorts of directions. Trying to balance all aspects of life like spinning plates on sticks above my head, and at the same time attempting to make every dream I have come true. It's quite an impossible situation - trying to do everything at once, but I feel this immense pressure to do so. What's a girl to do?

I read this quote today...

"You don't have to have it all figured out to move forward."

And then I thought about it for a while, and it dawned on me that hey, maybe I don't have to accomplish everything at the same time to be considered successful in life; because trying to figure out school and starting a family and working full time and pursuing my other hobbies and goals doesn't all have to happen at once. In fact it shouldn't, because you only have so many waking hours in a day.

So now I am taking a deep breath and am allowing myself to work on one goal at a time, not running faster than I have strength for, and remembering to rely on my Heavenly Father to direct my paths to what is most important right now. The rest will come later.

I haven't figured that all out yet, but with a little faith and hard work, I'm gonna get there someday.
