Presten sent personal emails to family members this week, but here is a small bit that he shared.
Thanks so much for your love and support to him.

Something that I have really been focusing on lately is goals.  I have been going on a goal streak lately because I  remembered one of the lessons that a General Authority gave about goals.  He gave the example of Alice in Wonderland.  She came to a cross roads and met the Cheshire Cat and asked him which way she should go.  He said that it all depends on where she wants to get to.  She said she didn´t know where she wanted to go, and so he said that it didn´t matter which road she chose.  We can apply this with every aspect of our life.  Not only with life goals but goals with religion also.  Another thing that I have been learning here is that the people are always saying to us that they will come to church another day. That they will do something another day or tomorrow.  The people who fill their lives with "tomorrows" will only find themselves looking back on a bunch of empty yesterdays.  I know you're busy and have a lot to do, but remember it just takes one step forward to get somewhere.
Have a great week!
