Direction for the Future

“I am different today because now I have direction in my life.”

When I came to Deseret Industries, I had no job experience and lacked confidence. I was struggling to find my direction for the future. The training program at DI helped me realize what I needed to do to make a significant change.

With help from my job coach and development counselor, I discovered what areas I needed to work on to improve. I set goals for myself and achieved them. I always wanted a driver’s license and DI gave me the courage to obtain it. I have learned how to manage my time and work harder and faster than before. I have learned that I can fulfill my assignments. I have reached goals that I have dreamed about for years and thought I would never accomplish.

I am different today because now I have direction in my life. I have grown to become a better person. I have confidence in my future. I do not have a permanent job yet, but I know that I have the experience to obtain one and the ability to keep one. I can see the world opening up for me.

The Deseret Industries training program is amazing. My younger brother was so impressed by my experience that he, too, has joined the program. I would absolutely recommend DI to anyone who is in need of a fresh start.
