W10: Dream Big Dreams

 


This week we studied the importance of dreaming big and the impact this has on ourselves and our business. There is a quote I really like from a video entitled, Think Big, with speaker Tyler Richards, who says, “So, the point I’m trying to put across to you is do not over underestimate yourself. You can do it, you can accomplish the goals and dreams that you set and if you involve the Lord, you can do the impossible, you can do amazing things you can do great things. Just like it says in good to great, it's a whole lot more fun to do great things than to just be good.  Or to just be mediocre. And it's no harder to be great than to be good. So, I challenge you, pursue your goals and dreams. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't do it. And involve the Lord, you can do great things.” When we are striving to achieve our dreams it is so important to believe in ourselves. If we are not confident in ourselves or our thoughts fulfilling our dreams may not go as we plan. It's important to have confidence and faith that we can achieve what we have our minds set on. I also think it is so important to involve the Lord in our dealings and our dreams. 
Since he knows us best, he knows the plans that are prepared and set forth. He can guide us and lead us to the right places.

I look forward to really truly figuring out what I would like to do as an entrepreneur. I haven't wanted to create this grand business but just create a small business. I hope I can achieve those goals and dreams of mine and take the time to pursue them properly. And enjoy the ride.

W13: A Journey of Gratitude

Image
  This week we read about reflecting on our journey and finding ways all opportunities in our lives have been a blessing. One of the readings we were assigned to read is by President Thomas S. Monson, "An Attitude of Gratitude," he describes how we have great and wonderful opportunities on the earth. We live in a time where goodness is hard to come by, but it is there; there are "teachers who teach, ministers who minister, marriages that make it, parents who sacrifice, and friends who help." These are small things that can help us recognize blessings in our lives. He continues, "We can lift ourselves, and others as well, when we refuse to remain in the realm of negative thought and cultivate within our hearts an attitude of gratitude. If ingratitude be numbered among the serious sins, then gratitude takes its place among the noblest of virtues." It's important to have an "attitude of gratitude," as it helps us recognize the good in our lives.

W03: Honesty & Business Ethics

Image
  In week 3, we learned more about ways we can strive to be more honest and gain business ethics as we seek this path of entrepreneurship.  We had a few readings and videos to watch. The first video I watched was a Brigham Young University of Idaho devotional by Elder Lynn G. Robbins, entitled, Making a Living and a Life.  In this video, he taught how working and living are essential parts of God's plan. We work to help build His kingdom, we are asked to be honest in our daily dealings, and live a life full of good works; striving to make a positive impact within the world and our communities. He shared a chart of how we should be in our daily dealings. The chart is as follows: Grade                         Primary Motivation                         Secondary Motivation     A                      Love of God & fellowmen                             Income     B                              Money                                          Love of fellowmen     C
