Morehouse College, a historically Black college in Georgia, has announced today that it will give its inaugural Gandhi-King-Mandela Peace Prize to President Russell M. Nelson of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
“We all want progress. But progress means getting nearer to the place where you want to be. And if you have taken a wrong turning then to go forward does not get you any nearer. If you are on the wrong road progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road and in that case the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive man.
There is nothing progressive about being pig-headed and refusing to admit a mistake. And I think if you look at the present state of the world it's pretty plain that humanity has been making some big mistake.
We're on the wrong road. And if that is so we must go back. Going back is the quickest way on.”
—C.S Lewis, Mere Christianity
“ It’s chosen suffering. We willingly expose ourselves to what makes us stronger. That takes courage. It will benefit us in the end.” - J.B. @alliseeisgold
PARENTS: If you tend to blame others, then your kids will most likely blame others. If you make excuses, your kids will likely make excuses, also. If you fail to act responsibly, your kids will most likely avoid taking responsibility for their actions. Your kids are watching 👀
Been at a youth wrestling tournament all day. Best piece of advice I’d have for any dad/coach - say less. Let the kids think, react, make decisions - good & bad, and let them wrestle! It’s a big part of the development process. Playing puppet master is a short-term solution.

- after yourself
- your attitude
WIN THE DAY!!
Many of the lessons we are to learn can be received only through the things we experience and sometimes suffer. God expects and trusts us to face temporary mortal adversity with His help so we can learn what we need to learn and become what we are to become in eternity.
I love his sense of personal accountability. He owned everything and paid incredible respect to his opponent. This kind of attitude is applicable in every aspect of life. Personal accountability equals personal growth.
“Loss is part of life. If you don’t have loss, you don’t grow. This isn’t tough. This is life.”
Four years ago today, after suffering his first loss in nearly a decade, @DominickCruz delivered one of the all-time great post-fight press conference speeches.
