I went to a workshop today for work. I really enjoy learning new things, now that I’m out of school. The workshop was really good. I knew a lot of it, but it’s always good to get refreshers on things and to learn to skills as well.
The workshop also reminded me that if I want to continue to grow, I need to keep pushing myself and be willing to step out of my comfort zone. If I want to continue to develop my career, I need to keep going to more workshops, to learn new skills that I can apply. If I want to keep in touch with my friends, I need to work at keeping up with my friendships. If I want to continue to grow as Christian, I need to keep pushing myself to read the Bible and spend time in prayer. If I want to be craftier, I need to keep practicing crafty skills and creativity. I have great friends, family and a great husband who all encourage and support me, but I need push myself, no one else can do it. (Not that I do it myself, credit needs to go to God and the interests and skills that He gives to me.) That’s one of those things that I know, but it’s good to get a swift kick of motivation sometimes.
