I was reading an article on lds.org titled The Savior, the Master Teacher, by Elder Jay E. Jensen. There was a scripture that he referred to in his talk that I hope to live by, for the sake of my children:
If we obtain His word first, only then can we know how to share it. We have to know what we're sharing before we can know how to share it with others. I'm going to try to memorize this scripture and its reference because something else that Elder Jensen mentioned in his talk was that citing scripture is much more powerful than if we just paraphrased. We and others will "...be certain that Jesus is the Christ when we read, study, and cite—not paraphrase—holy writ to strengthen ourselves and others."
This is one of my new goals.

I actually started a Book of Mormon study blog as a New Years resolution. It pushes me to record my impressions and feelings. Recording what you learn I think is just as important as the learning itself.
