My Culture by Zachary Beatty https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb en-us 2023-02-06 04:13:38 UTC 2023-02-06 04:31:19 UTC hello@padlet.com Self-Improvement zbeatty1 https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469486531 Throughout my youth, I've always had terrible self-esteem. Since I can remember, I've always thought less of myself and developed a people-pleasing self-degrading mindset. It wasn't until recently when enduring the most challenging time of my life that I decided I needed to change. Ever since adopting this self-improvement lifestyle, I've slowly been improving in ways I never thought imaginable. I love myself now and I am working towards great things. 
The rituals include special routines centered around habits. Setting goals for the purpose of bettering yourself, and working together with those who are of a similar mindset]]> 2023-02-06 04:21:22 UTC https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469486531 Latter-day Saint zbeatty1 https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469491777 I was born a member of this church, but when I was younger, my family all fell away. As I grew up, I never really understood God or religion, but I tried my best to do what I thought "God" would want me to do. I would be considered inactive till high school and even then, I really wasn't fully committed. After my mission, I still am not sure about a lot of religious things. Although I really struggle to feel the passion and vigor most religious people feel, I agree with the doctrine and the church as a whole had led me to a better life. 
The ritual of weekly cleansing of all past mistakes as well as the culture of unity amongst its members all around the world are some of the best things I've experienced ]]> 2023-02-06 04:27:56 UTC https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469491777 Theatre zbeatty1 https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469493948 Although this is a path I've stepped away from recently, I still feel apart of this culture. A culture of people who have the common interest of performance. The same knowledge and desire to perform. I performed in various musicals throughout my youth, ranging from Les Mis, and Sweeney Todd to Tarzan and Mulan Jr. I met some of my greatest friends in these situations and I learned my greatest lessons! I feel I will always be a theatre kid in some way shape or form.]]> 2023-02-06 04:30:41 UTC https://padlet.com/zbeatty1/qc6xoizojgofo2eb/wish/2469493948
