Every minute is important

One thing I learned this week, was that every moment counts.  There was a training that I was in a while back telling me this story:

 

Imagine if a bank gave you $86400 dollars every day, you could use it however you liked, but when the day ended it would go back to zero, and replenish the next day.  The question is, How would you use the money every day?  What would you buy? 

 

Likewise we have 86400 Seconds every day.  How do you use your seconds?  How do you use your time wisely?  Do you live in the moment?

 

Hearing that story helped me to realize that I need to use the time that I have here wisely.  When Elder Nelson and Sister Nelson came, they talked about doing the best we can every single day.  To not waste the Lord's time.

 

I loved that talk.  It helped me realize what I need to do to be better.  

That was something I learned this week.  How I can effectively use my time.  

 

Another thing is that we were able to accomplish most of our goals because of our attitude.  Without the right attitude, I wouldn't have been able to do anything.

 

I didn't really take heaps of pictures during this week, but I'll send some of last weeks pictures. :)

I am so excited to continue on my mission, and I'll email you again next week.

HAVE A GOOD WEEK!

Love you heaps!

Life as a missionary

Hello everyone!

Everyone is probably wondering what I did this week.  Well, it has been pretty hectic.  

First, one of our good ward members that we got to know heaps is going on his mission to Leeds Mission, in England.  We were really able to get to know him, and I am so excited for him, because he is so prepared!  

Also, one of our members is a break dancer and so I had the opportunity to be his friend and talk with him.  He is ready to help with the missionary work, and I know that we will find many opportunities through him.  

Today, I was able to go on a hike (in Australia it is called bush walking) and it was very fun and hot.  It took about 4 hours, but it was well worth it.  The views were amazing and we even got to see wildlife!  We went to this place called Mt. Kuring-Gai trail and it was BEAUTIFUL. 

My companion Elder Somsen is leaving the mission soon, and it is really sad, because it feels like this transfer has gone by so fast.  So next week, I will let you know what has happened and who my new companion is!  

I just want you all to know that this gospel has blessed my life so much!  It has been the best decision of my life to be on this mission and to learn as I have learned.  To do all that I can in order to help others know what I know.  

I love you all,

Elder Han
