Happy Fathers Day!

Happy Fathers Day Paully Wally!  

Today I would like to give a shout out to the worlds most optimistic and unconditionally loving Father.  


I have learned so much from you over the years both by the things that you say and the way you live your life.  You are an inspiration and an example to me of someone that lives and loves the gospel, their family, and their life.  

There are three major lessons that have had a significant effect on my life over the past 26 years from you Dad. And they can all be summed up in a few short phrases that I would like to share with the rest of the internet. 

1.  Organizations (and people) are perfectly designed to get the results that they get.  So if you want to change the results... change the behavior.  
In simpler terms:
 "If you always do what you've always done. You'll always get what you always got."  

2.  The Lord is bound when we do what he says.  When we do not what he says we have NO promise.  Or as I once heard... When we do not what he says "good luck-we are on our own"

Lastly, 

3.  A clean room is NOT the most important thing. 
(that was me teaching my Dad at the young age of early childhood the priorities in my life... somethings never change.)

I love you DAD!!
