 The 7 habits of very successful people are.. Be proactive Begin with the end in mind put first things first think win/win seek first to understand then to be understood synergize sharper the saw The ones that we most impactful to me was number 2, 3, and 5. I really enjoyed when it talked about put first things first. It categorized what you need to do and the order you need to do things into 4 different categories. It goes, important and urgent, then important but non urgent, then urgent but not important, then the last one was not urgent and not important. It talked about how we want to mostly stay in the second category because we don't want to have to do things when they are only urgent but we should do things that are important and non urgent then most of the time we won't have to deal with beating the clock. Whether that is dealing with work, school or with family. The other big thing he said is that we should reduce the amount of time we spend in number four because that...

 This week was a great week to learn about what it takes to be an entrepreneur. How to keep your life aligned with God while keeping in the route of an entrepreneur. The path of the entrepreneur isn't for everyone. To be an entrepreneur you have to have a determined mind, ambition, and the ability to get up when you fall and you will fall. This life is not an easy one because the whole world will be against you. Whether you start up your own business or join one that is already part way built, you will face trials, setbacks, and almost anything that you think will go wrong can go wrong. You have to be able to face these facts and not let them tear you down but help you to be more successful. When you pick this route you need to remember who the main person in your life that has helped you all the way. That person is Heavenly Father, we need to remember him and make sure we put him and his Gospel first before our business. For example, when we get a calling in the church, we need to...

 The hero's journey was quite an informative talk. One of the biggest things that hit is the fact that the hero's journey is all about you but not about you at all. In the end of this life there are three great questions that are very important and that is have I contributed something meaningful, am I a good person, and who did I love and who loved me. In the end we don't want our lives to be pointless, the point of being on this earth is to grow and learn but that isn't a journey just for yourself. It is a journey that you take with everyone else in this world, we need to make a difference not only in our own lives but in the lives of those we know and those that we don't know. We have to find out passion in life, we have to find what we are at the best at and take it and run with it. That is where you will be able to make a meaningful impact with. Your calling is something that you lose time with. Something that you do that you just find great joy in and somehow t...

 October 1st-7th This week has been a good week of learning! I learned quite a lot from my classes as well as the individual experience that I went through. I also had the great opportunity to listen and go to General Conference in Salt Lake City and received and learned very important lessons and things I need to continually work on in my life. From general conference I learned quite a few things. Such as the fact that if you want to grow faith or have faith at all then you will need to give forth energy. You can't expect your faith to stay how strong it is or to grow at all if you aren't willing to put forth some energy and dig deep into the gospel. Another thing that stuck with me was that we need to constantly be writing in the fleshy tables of our hearts. We need to continually nourish our testimony and truly take what we learn to heart. Not only just learn it in our hearts but have it so engrained into our hearts that we continually become like Jesus Christ. One thing tha...
