FLOURISH

My media law professor was talking the other night about the purpose of law, ethics and morals. He told us that without law there would be chaos and chaos prevents order. We need order so that we may flourish, which as humans on earth is our soul purpose.

No matter the religion, belief or faith you are you have a goal to flourish as a person. We all want to succeed and we all find things we are interested in. Why not spend some time focusing on self-improvement from that angle. I believe track and field is my calling which is why I am planning a future surrounded by athletes. I want to flourish as an instructor and coach and learn daily.  We all have that vision of what we want our futures to be like but in order to reach that potential we must allow for CHANGE, IMPROVEMENT and FAILURE.

Failure? I know you're probably thinking, why would I want to fail? Well, failure is a part of success. It's a stepping stone on the way to your dreams. You must fail in order to learn what didn't work. If we got everything we hoped for the first time then life would be awfully boring and mundane. Learn to love making a mistake, it only shows you that you know the difference in right and wrong. Learn from it, and move forward.

The one thing in life I want is to flourish. Currently as a person, christian, friend, daughter, sister, coach, athlete, student and someday many more things. Self improvement means you are willing to give up the things that are bad for you to make room for those that are better for you.
