Hey Y'all,
"If I can learn to do it, you can learn to do it. Something in you knows it: there's nothing to it!" This is just a slight portion of the lyrics of our lovable movie "Anastasia." This is a lovely little part in the story when Anastasia discovers that being a Romanov Princess is difficult, but possible. Especially since she knows a good portion of what she needs to know in the first place.
However, it doesn't matter where we are now, we can progress. I would say the most frustrating thing in the world is not making progress. After all, isn't one of the biggest parts of our goal here on earth to begin our eternal progression and get better everyday. You see, Anastasia thought it was insane to think she could be a princess or learn to be one. However, in the end of the movie, she learns that she was a princess all along. She just needed to realize it.
I've made lots of progression recently. By recently we're talking about a week or so. Mentioned above is the most frustrating thing: not progressing. The opposite, or the best thing in the world, is making progress. No matter how small it is, this progress gives you an idea of how long it will take to accomplish a certain goal. When someone knows a certain time frame, that person can make modifications to speed up that progress or improve the quality of the progress made. The best part about this idea is the fact that there are three simple things we can do to improve any progress we make in life. These three things? ALO. Asistir, leer, orar. Or, in english terms, go to church, read the scriptures and pray.
You see, in Anastasia's story, there's a guy named Demitri, who is trying to train a princess. He suddenly realizes that he's been going about it the wrong way and he was only thinking about himself. When he finds out the truth, he gives up on the life he was leaving and gives us what he wanted most in order to become the person he realized he wanted to be. He made this progression by realizing that it was not the correct way of getting what he wanted. He discovered he wanted something greater.
I would be willing to say that he had a change of heart, not unlike that described in the Book of Mormon and the Bible. That's what we should try to achieve.
You can Learn to do it, too
There's a link to the song mentioned above. Apart from the Soviet Romanov references, the idea of the song is what we're trying to learn and put into practice from here on out.
