Money

This has been an interesting week of material to learn from. I think that most people are aware of the time constraints in life and how difficult it can be at times to put our time to different areas. I want to be a person who is devoted to family and manages my time well so that I can be there for everything.  I agree with the idea shared that talks about how we see things through our different filters and the experiences we have had ourselves. It's interesting to think about how we each adjust our filters as we get more experience in our lives and grow more and slightly adjust our thinking.

I think I see money as a necessity, but not the complete reason for what provides motivation. Money can be a reward for hard work though, and that is good. It is something, of course, that we need to sustain ourselves, but it cannot be the real reason we give time toward a cause. I probably could be better at managing money and saving for the future.

Ways that we can prosper are by following the laws. We need to learn the laws and then keep them. Rules to prosper -
1. Seek the Lord, and have hope in him
2. Keep the commandments
3. Think about money and how I can become self reliant.
4. Take advantage of chances for learning
5. Learn the laws upon which the blessings of wealth are dependent
6. Do not send away the naked, the hungry, the thirsty, or the sick

I think these are good principles to follow and you can only be blessed by doing so.
