Sister Belle S. Spafford, the ninth Relief Society general president, said: “The average woman today, I believe, would do well to appraise her interests, evaluate the activities in which she is engaged, and then take steps to simplify her life, putting things of first importance first, placing emphasis where the rewards will be greatest and most enduring, and ridding herself of the less rewarding activities.”
***A great talk on simplifying our lives and putting first things first is Good, Better, Best by Dallin H. Oaks. Whether this is your first introduction to this talk or you have heard it before, it is well worth another look.
