Week 3 at the MTC!

Hola from week 3 at the mtc! Only 6 days left! It's by divine design that when you start to get comfortable, God picks you up and moves you.
By the by, nothing too interesting happened this week. What I feel inspired to share is a list of the 10 most important lessons I've learned in the last 3 weeks. Buckle up, comrads.
1. Less is more. People respond to more of God's inspiration and less of me running my mouth.
2. The work is supposed to be hard. People are worth it.
3. First impressions are usually incorrect.
4. Often, God answers prayers with other people.
5. Exhaustion at the end of the day = success.
6. Remember to laugh...hysterically. On an hourly basis.
7. Be equal parts patient with others and yourself.
8. Be thankful for frustrating circumstances. You're growing.
9. Listen more intently. Answers are in the details.
10. It's NOT about me. It's about them and God.
There you go. I still have galaxies to learn, but I'm getting there. I might actually be a functioning, capable adult when I get back from my mission...I hope.
I love you all. Thank you as always for your prayers and support. Next Tuesday I fly to Seattle to start the next leg of this journey. I'm excited like you can't believe.
love one another,
sister g
