Character



 
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then is not an act,
but a habit."—Aristotle

Peace

"Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee."   
(Job 22:21)
"It is a great blessing to have an inner peace, to have an assurance, to have a spirit of serenity and inward calm during times of strive and struggle, during times of sorrow and reverses.  It is soul-satisfying to know that God is at the helm, that He is mindful of His children, and that we can with full confidence place our trust in Him.  I believe that all the truly great men of the earth have been men who trusted in God and who have striven to do that which is right as they understood the right"
(The Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p. 68).

Light

And that which doth not edify is not of God, and is darkness.
  
That which is of God is light;
and he that receiveth light, and continueth in God, receiveth more light;
and that light groweth brighter and brighter until the perfect day."  
D&C 50:23-24
“I can’t stress too strongly that decisions determine destiny.  You can’t make eternal decisions without eternal consequences.
May I provide a simple formula by which you can measure the choices which confront you, It’s easy to remember, sometimes difficult to apply: You can’t be right by doing wrong; you can’t be wrong by doing right.  Your personal conscience always warns you as a friend before it punishes you as a judge”
(Decisions Determine Destiny, Nov 6, 2005 BYU Devotional Thomas S Monson)

Miracles

There are only two ways to live your life.  One is as though nothing is a miracle.  The other is as though everything is a miracle.  
                       – Albert Einstein

Toil's reward

"The highest reward for a man's toil is not what he gets for it,
but what he becomes by it."

Shake it up once in awhile---

If you always DO what you’ve always DONE, you’ll always BE what you’ve always BEEN.
I chose this picture of fire falls in Yosemite.  It is just a waterfall but it turns to fire at a certain time of the day in February if the clouds are just right. So even though it does the same thing everyday God can turn something ordinary into something extraordinary.
