Week 6

I really like how Elder Tanner compared self-mastery to sails on a ship. He explained that there are two elements. The first is to determine the course or set the sails, and the second is willpower, or the wind carrying you forward. People often accuse us of being narrow minded for following the straight and narrow path, but that's not true. It takes dedication. This was a great week!

Week 7

This was another great week! I liked reading about all the 7 habits of highly effective people, but my favorite one is the first one: Be Proactive. I feel like that one is the foundation for the rest of the habits. You can't really do the other habits such as put first things first, begin with the end in mind, or synergize without being proactive. Being proactive is a good feeling because you get things done without having to be told and it makes you feel accomplished. The 7 Habits is a great resource for anyone who wants to improve their lifestyle!

Entrepreneurial Journal Week 2

One of the articles I read this week was titled, Stars and Steppingstones . I like how it said that some choices only come around once. It's true! Sometimes I see someone I know and think about saying hi and talking to them, but then don't, and later I think about what could've happened if I did stop. My favorite quote from the reading was "it would be a shame to wander aimlessly through a journey we will all take only once." Life doesn't turn out exactly how you plan it, so I think you should live life to the fullest, or in other words, "YOLO." That's why I liked creating a bucket list this week! It was fun to think about what I want to accomplish in this life, even if it's something simple or silly. Don't waste too much time thinking about things, or worrying about what others think, you do you!

Week 5

I really liked the article about the Warm Fuzz Cards this week! It talked about a woman who created handmade cards and her entrepreneurial journey. I admired her because she thought through each option and weighed the pros and cons before diving in. She was trying to decide if she should take the slower growth route on her own (but she was doing well), or hiring more help for faster growth. I think the faster growth option isn't always better, so I thought she should just take her time! It was a great week!
