This year I want to be strong. I want to strengthen my marriage, my relationship with God, my body, and my emotional capacity.
A few months ago, I read the book The Happiness Project, which I highly recommend. It left me with a lot to think about, but one of my main takeaways was that "Happiness doesn’t always make you feel happy." Or in other words, to be happy, you have to do things you don't want to do. It takes hard work and discipline to read your scriptures, exercise, respond to whining patiently, eat with self-control, not criticize, pray with intent, etc.
I want more power to do what I know will bring me and my family happiness. And I hope I can access this power by strengthening the areas of my life that matter most.
