 As I sit down to write my final blog entry for this semester, I can't help but marvel at the incredible journey of learning and self-discovery that it has been. This course has been more than just a collection of lectures and assignments; it has been a platform for personal and professional growth. Reflecting on the individual learning experiences, there are several key concepts that have resonated with me profoundly.

One of the most impactful takeaways has been the emphasis on adaptability. The business world is in a constant state of flux, and the ability to adapt to change is not just a skill; it's a necessity. Understanding this, I have learned to embrace change, viewing it not as a challenge, but as an opportunity for growth and innovation.

If I were to share my insights in a final lecture, I would underscore the importance of ethics in business. The discussions around ethical decision-making have been enlightening, highlighting the fact that success should not come at the expense of one's moral compass. I would encourage my fellow students to always strive for success with integrity, as ethical conduct lays the foundation for sustainable and meaningful achievements.

To those embarking on the entrepreneurial journey, my last bit of advice would be to cultivate resilience. Entrepreneurship is a rollercoaster of highs and lows, and the ability to bounce back from setbacks is a defining factor. Embrace failures as learning opportunities, and remember that the path to success is rarely linear.

In my hypothetical last lecture, I would caution aspiring entrepreneurs about the importance of balance. While the entrepreneurial journey demands dedication and hard work, it's crucial not to sacrifice personal well-being and relationships. Success is holistic, encompassing both professional achievements and a fulfilling personal life.

As I conclude this blog post, I can't help but feel a sense of gratitude for the enriching experiences of this semester. The knowledge gained and lessons learned will undoubtedly shape my future endeavors, both in the professional realm and on a personal level. Here's to continuous learning, growth, and the exciting journey ahead!

 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. ...
