The Two Great Commandments

We are to love God and love our neighbor. But in what way? We love God by obeying his commandments. We love our neighbor by showing kindness and compassion, or charity, to them. How do we keep the two great commandments? By obedience to God and charity for each other.

Gratitude

Don't just thank or says "thanks", be thankful, or filled with thanks. This is gratitude. And this is necessary for your gratitude to shine in your attitude.

Joy in the Journey

Destinations come and go, but the journey never ends. Don't fix your expectations and desires for happiness on the stops along the way, fix it on the journey.

Wisdom (3) - Spiritual

Wisdom is relying on the Atonement when we fall short, believing He will make up the difference as we sincerely strive to get back on course AND trusting in the Lord by accepting the outcome after we've put forth our honest best effort, which includes relying on the Atonement even though we faltered briefly.

Wisdom (2)

Wisdom is effectively balancing the letter and spirit of the law.
