Improving your weaknesses vs. Changing who you are

Remember who you are.

I think the most important thing I can say in this blog post is to remember the Savior's words when asked what the greatest commandment is.

35 Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question,tempting him, and saying,

 36 Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

 37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

 38 This is the first and great commandment.

 39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

 40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

So I want to focus on the three commandments. "wait, three? but there are only two..."
Well, I want to expound a bit. It says:

1. love the Lord thy God
2. Love thy neighbour
3. as thyself.

Love yourself!  Don't forget that!  God loves you so love yourself.  There's only one you in this world.  I get mad at others for hating themselves.  Don't do that!  Why?  It's so destructive and gets nothing accomplished.  Be kind to yourself.  Take some time to do "you" stuff.  

Improvement is important, and you can do so most effectively with the help of the Atonement of Jesus Christ and believing in Him and in yourself.  Say positive things.  "I can do this.  I am awesome."  Please help others remember who they are too, and give them the confidence they need to endure through times of hardship and times of improving.  Most people when improving need support.  You improve yourself if you help others improve.

Faith in Jesus Christ will help us to endure the hardest of challenges.  Build your faith. :) 

This controversial battle between improving your weaknesses and changing who you are is worth talking about.  Please comment.  I would love to hear from anyone and everyone.
