School. Seminary. Mutual. Scripture study. Family history and temple attendance. Soccer. Band. Karate. Choir. Art. Homework. Service. … You name it. There’s a lot on your plate. Managing all that you have to do can be as exhausting as trying to accomplish those goals in the first place.

Here are some ideas to get you started. So go on. Enjoy life. You can do some fun and relaxing things and still do the things you need to do. Just remember to “counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good” (Alma 37:37).
