- From the video of Randy Pausch I think that he was able to achieve his dreams is because he did not doubt himself. When he came to the brick wall which he expressed how he did, he didn't take it as him not being able to accomplish his goals. He took it as an opportunity to show his trials, people, future jobs just how much his dreams mean to him. How he can and will do whatever it takes to get over the wall that is there so see who is really willing to go the extra mile.

-I personally have always thought that dreaming is important. If we don't dream or have a desire to do the most we can in this life then we aren't living up to the potential that our Heavenly Father has blessed us with. Each human being can accomplish whatever they desire, the only thing that is holding them back is their selves. We are our biggest enemy, if we doubt ourselves or don't think we can make our dream come true that is when we hit the brick wall.

-One childhood dream that I have always had is to be in the medical field. Most of my family has gone into it and it's been a dream since I was a kid, along the way I have doubted myself and have thought that I am not cut out or smart enough to do that. But I've realized recently that if that is something I truly want to do, then I could do it. It might be hard but in the end I know I could do it if I put hard work and diligence into it. To achieve any goals that I have, I just need to realize that it will not be an easy path. It will be hard, long, I will hit plateaus and that will be very discouraging. But I know all things are possible with Jesus Christ.

In the end goals are there to help us achieve what the Lord has planned for us to do and be. We only need to council with the Lord and understand what our purpose is here on the earth. I have no idea what the end goal looks like for me but I know that if I hold true to this truth of the Gospel, then everything else will workout for the better.

 September 24th-30th This week was a good week with learning about things that are right and things that are wrong. In two of my classes we focused on morals and ethics and how it applies not only to how businesses act but how it applies to us in our daily lives. It's helped me realize what things I should and can be lenient with in my life and other situation's and things that I have to be strict with so that I'm able to stay within my own ethics. Another thing that I learned from this week is that the Lord sometimes makes it very obvious with what he wants you to do. He may put the same person in your path everyday until you talk to them, you may repeatedly see the same things that the Lord wants you to look into or he may continue to give you the same impression over and over again until you act on it. From this weeks readings and videos, the most important thing that I took away from it was that we should never bend or break or compromise our own integrity. Integrity is...

  The article written by Handy goes over many things of a business such as virtue and integrity as well as real justification and how it comes into play within the business world and how it applies to individuals and companies. Virtue and integrity are essential to an economy because markets rely on rules and laws. These rules and laws, in turn, depend on truth and trust. If truth is concealed or trust is eroded, the reliability of the market diminishes. The article suggests that if businesses sacrifice truth or erode trust, markets may empty, share prices may collapse, and people may seek alternative places to invest their money. In this context, virtue and integrity contribute to the stability and functioning of the economic system. The article suggests that the real justification for the existence of businesses goes beyond merely making a profit. While making a profit is important, it is considered a means to a larger end. The purpose of a business, according to Handy, is to mak...

  Entrepreneurship isn’t just a career; it is all about the journey you go through and all the various skills and other things you learn along the way. It is a common practice to go from company to company to learn from others and develop your own skills and to understand more fully what it is in life that you want to accomplish. Throughout this process people usually realize what kind of business they want to create and how it will affect the world. Randy Haykin is a prime example of this process, he first started at a larger company and learned and grew his knowledge as well as grew the other people he knew that were on similar paths. This helped him to realize what he wanted and helped him throughout his journey of building up his own business. This is a big thing that I learned this week. I also learned a lot of the second coming and the signs of the times as well as what they mean. Another thing that I learned is that the church is under condemnation regarding the scriptures. ...
