What I Learned From 2 Years Of Asking Myself A Question Everyday!



         We all know that we change constantly! Well, over the past 2 years I answered a question everyday in a five year journal. Basically how this journal works is that there is a question for every day of the year and you answer a question each day. Then at the beginning of the next year you go and answer the same questions and see your progression overtime, I have a whole post on it here.

        I have completed a whole two years of this journal, and I have learned a LOT from it. Therefore, here are 3 things I learned from asking myself a question every day.

 #1 No matter how positive you are that you'll never change, you will.
     When I first started this journal in 2016 I thought that I was going to move to NYC and become a famous actress. At the time nobody could tell me otherwise. At the time I also was not a religious person, and I even would say that I was agnostic. However, I today am planning on either becoming a psychologist or a doctor, and am very religious. I have been wanting to be a psychologist for over a year now, and I have been a Christian for over a year now as well, and for me I know that I will always be a Christian, but I will always be changing in my relationship with God, and growing in that. We always are going to grow and we are never done growing.

#2 Your plans are not always going to work out.
     As morbid as this might sound, this is something I really learned the hard way over the past few months. For me, I will be attending college (hopefully) this coming fall. I always had my heart set on this one school that I love sooo much. However, I ended up getting deferred from this school. Now this doesn't mean that I was denied, but it still is not what I was hoping for. I always thought I would be attending this school, but now I do not know, and I had to go through the process of telling everyone that I got deferred from this school. However, I recognized during this time that my identity should be in God and not in the school that I might or might not attend.

#3 It is difficult to do something every day.
    I had some major issues when it came to making sure I answered the questions every single day. Even though it is only one question a day, it is difficult to get into the routine. There were many times where I answered the past 2 weeks of questions in one day. oopsies.

Dual Action Moisturizer (Which is better? On Brand Or OffBrand? #2)(Blogmas 2016 #4)

      A post that I am very proud of, and that many of you wonderful readers really seemed to enjoy, was my Which Is Better? On Brand, or Off Brand Beauty Blender Edition . I decided to make it a little series because I realize that I love a good dupe, and I want you to join in my journey to great dupes! So welcome to another On-Brand or Off-Brand post!        I think every person can agree that moisturizer is something that is a necessity in a skincare routine, especially in this upcoming winter season! I know in the winter I get very dry skin, and I know that moisturizer can get quite expensive, so I thought I would try out a store brand moisturizer, and compare it to a Clean and Clear moisturizer that I already knew I loved.      These are the two moisturizers that I will be comparing in this post! The clean and clear advantage dual action moisturizer (I know this one is slightly different but I have used both!), and the Walmart...

Life Is Happening RIGHT NOW

           One thing that I have really discovered about myself within the past year is that I am way too focused on the future. I often find myself planning my future down to the last detail, and daydreaming.               But let me tell you something. This does not get you anywhere. I realized that I was legitimately spending my life just thinking about a life I dreamed of and planning my future in my mind. However, I soon came to realize that life is happening right now. I am living a wonderful, beautiful, and amazing life now, and if I keep daydreaming excessively I will be living more in my fantasy than in my reality. Though this may sound great, reality is truly wonderful.                I soon began to realize, 'oh dang, I must stop daydreaming'. So that is what I did. I prayed, and I worked hard to stop my daydreaming tendencies. Now I have severely cut down the amount of t...

How I Have Deepened My Faith

            A few months ago God truly found me. I knew I wanted to start a relationship with God and with Jesus,but I did not how to begin this faithful journey in my life. However, here I am a few months later and I feel more spiritual than ever. I know I still have a lot to learn,but you always do when it comes to Christ. Here are my tips for starting a relationship with Christ. 1. Pray This is so simple ,but so true. I pray so much. I pray every morning when I wake up to thank God for a safe night. I pray when I am aware I have sinned. I pray before I, or my family eats. I pray before I go to bed. I pray a lot in between. Praying does not have to be a set prayer, you can legitimately just talk to God. It takes a little bit of getting used to, but you get the hang of it as you practice. Remember God knows that you are new to this, and he knows that you are trying and he will help you to learn to pray better. Remember, do not just pray for things, pr...
