October 29th-4th of November

 This week was quite a spiritually uplifting week. I leaned quite a lot about gifts and skills, about gifts of the spirit, and more about the Atonement of Jesus Christ and how it more fully applies to us. Before we came to this Earth we were preparing to come here, we prepared by picking specific skills and gifts that would help us in our life and we improved upon them. The part that was most impactful to me was the fact that while we are here one Earth we must find, identify, and master those gifts that we took time to learn before this world. It is daunting to know that we prepared specific skills for this life, knowing that gives me more motivation to find them and hone them as best as I can. When we talk about gifts of the Spirit, they are gifts that are only beneficial to us while we are here on this Earth. They are available to each and everyone of us to help us become more like our Father in Heaven and slowly but surely become more of a perfected being such as He. I also had the chance to learn more deeply about the Atonement and it is just awe structing that Jesus Christ descended below all things possible, both physical and spiritual so that we would have the opportunity to live in Heaven once again with our loved ones and Heavenly Father. The love that our Heavenly Parents and our brother Jesus Christ have for us is endless, and we see this especially through the act of the Atonement. He was willing to get mocked, ridiculed, and experience everything just so that we could live once again as one big happy family with our Heavenly Parents. It is essential that we take advantage of these three things to reach our potential that we have before we pass on from this life.

 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. ...
