"My heart is always the happiest when I picture myself as a Catholic priest. God willing, if I am to be ordained one day, I think it would be pretty special to have Jesus Christ as my main companion every day that I wake up. Also, when I was on a FOCUS conference, Seek 2013 in Orlando, it was incredible to see the procession of over 100 priests. The beauty of the Catholic Church is endless and I want to be in the heart of it."

This may sound cliché, but always distinguish what your mind is telling you to do and what your heart desires you to do.  This can easily be done through prayer – such as reading scripture and meditation.  In addition, I recommend frequenting the sacraments.  Chase after the Eucharist.  Research and pray to the saints.  Finally, surround yourself with good friends and have good accountability partners.

Most sports, running, music (guitar and piano), reading and the Catholic faith.
