Good Morning, or Good Afternoon, or Good Evening,
this post should take three to five minutes to read from start to finish.
Is it necessary to make decisions in our everyday lives? Are we grateful for some of past decisions?
What type of past decisions did you faced? Have we learned anything from some of our past decisions?
Here are several examples of my past decisions that I have made. Most decisions that I have made in the past has taught me so much, and I learned some useful and great lessons.
Towards end of my tenth grade; I was able to make the decision for myself if I would like to continue with schooling of the following two years (eleventh grade and twelfth grade/senior). I was afraid that I might fail in school core subjects and when I eventually decided that I would like to continue with schooling has made me feel forever grateful because I knew that I would have to put more effort into schooling and I had the opportunity to get better grades. I must admit towards end of twelfth grade/senior, I was able to grade High School successfully and I was able to go to Senior Formal/Prom.

Duration of my online seminary; I knew that there has been times when I have made decision to not make huge efforts into online seminary. I knew that I was slacking and I was failing. I remembered during High School, I was able to have some spare periods that I didn't have any school work to focus on.
Therefore; I wasn't into playing games online, I was able to use those some spare periods to catch up work for online seminary. I have made the effort. I must admit, it was a wonderful feeling to know that I was able to grade seminary successfully. I was the only church member out of my ward in the stake to graduate seminary.
Deciding whether to make Institute a priority or not.
At the beginning of the same year when I was eighteen years old, I have started to attending Institute and it didn't take me too long to make a decision for myself to make Institute a priority in my life. I have attended Institute very often.
I remembered that I have attended multiple classes, one class per semester. I have been acknowledged and I have received a institute Diploma certificate at Institute Graduation when I was twenty-one years old. I remembered that I still attended Institute after graduation and I attended Institute while I was studying the BYU-Idaho Pathways Program online, and sometimes while I was engaged - whenever I can.
I'm glad that I was able to attend Institute often. I remembered participating in Institute by showing up, sharing some of my life experiences for the answers of the questions that was asked for the whole group discussions, and so forth. I remembered when there has been times for me feeling like that I have known all of the answers, I remembered making countless friends during institute and after institute.
Deciding whether to study the BYU-Idaho Pathways Program or not.
Shortly after I received my Diploma certificate at Institute Graduation, I have made the decision to enroll myself into BYU-Idaho Pathways Program online. I got approved! Indeed it was my first attempt for the enrollment form to BYU-Idaho Pathways Program online and it got approved. I was so happy and I got notified via email. I was able to start BYU-Idaho Pathways Program online in April 2017 and I completed the program in 2018.
For the first semester of the Program, there was three other YSAs that attended in the same program. I was happy about it because two out of three other YSAs are my friends. Sadly sometime before mid second semester all three other YSAs has stopped studying the program. I stayed strong and positive. I was the only YSA who finished that BYU-Idaho Pathways program. It took time, it took effort, it took encouragement to complete the program. I'm glad that I have completed program because I was able to meet other people while I was in the program and I hope that one day I would be able to study BYU-Idaho online again sometime in the future.
Deciding whether to move to US or stay in Australia.
I must admit that it was a toughest decision in my life to decide whether to move to US or stay in Australia. My husband and I have thought about and discussed about some advantages and disadvantages about me moving to US and about me staying in Australia. We both have thought about and discussed about some advantages and disadvantages for my husband to move to Australia and for him to stay in US. We knew it was just the right decision for me to move to US.
Indeed for the last weeks prior to me leaving Australia; I had to reassigned for the job that I was employed at, I had to sell the car that I had, I trusted my Mum to take great care of my pet bird - Bluey, and so forth. It was tougher than I thought it would be for me to say final goodbyes to friends and relatives in Australia. I certainly didn't want to let go of what I already had in Australia and I knew that I was also so excited for a new chapter was just about to begin for me to move to US.
I know that I have plenty of experiences for the past decisions that I was proud of. Don't ever forget that sometimes our past decisions helps us to become for who we are at this present time.
Stay Tuned until next time.
