                                                                        Week 11                                                     ATTITUDE TOWARD MONEY What is my attitude toward money? Before reading this topic, my attitude toward money had always been ‘make money and give my family the best life they deserve”. But after reading this article, I have realized that my attitude toward money has changed to “seek money righteously through hard work and be a blessing to others”. Money is the driving force for people’s hard work and I hold a strong believe that we need it to do so many things as far as temporal things are concerned. I believe that having money is a good thing. Th...

                                                            WEEK 10 This week was amazing with lots principles taught. These principles are the guide to entrepreneurial journey. As an entrepreneur, one thing you should be guided by is; Thinking Big. Most often than not, people enter into entrepreneurship believing that they are going to do well, get the money and live good lives. Along the path, they start to doubt their capabilities when challenges come along. But first, every entrepreneur must have the enthusiasm to do more; to do more than now. Dream big; think big. In order to do this, entrepreneurs should not over underestimate  yourselves. Every person can do anything, you just need faith and believing in yourself. Entrepreneurs should have the courage to say ‘I can achieve this’. Set good goals and visions and work on them a...

                                                                    WEEK 09 Aspects of Building Trust In building trust with others, you need to first trust them. You trusting others will enable them trust you as well. When trusting business in business, you need to “set your default to yes”. Listen to what they have to say regarding a particular subject of interest. Listen to understand them not to answer them. People in businesses feel confident if their leader resorts to their help in solving a pending problem. You should help people that work for or with you. Build them to become better at what they do. As an entrepreneur, your biggest assets are your human resource. So, helping them to help you should be an important matter to you. Instead of focusing on what others do to help you, rather consider asking yours...

                                                                      WEEK 08 This week was really both an inspiring and motivational lesson. Now these are some of the awesome things I learned from the video lessons. As an entrepreneur, I learned, you can do anything you set your heart upon. Looking at the example of the Nephi, a Book of Mormon prophet, his brothers ridiculed him when he tried building a ship to sail through the great waters. With God and hard work, the ancient holy scriptures, the Book of Mormon, records, he was able to build the ship. Why? Because he trusted in the Lord. As an entrepreneur, you need luck and the Lord Jesus Christ. Don’t work on your own strength. Subject to the whispering of the Holy Spirit to know what to do and what not to do. If you include the Lord in everything you do, H...

                                                        Week 07                                                                         Out of the seven habits, I really loved the first part; “be proactive”. In business, being proactive is very key. It changes the stages of the whatever you invest in. We are able to change the course of business when emergencies come along. We have the ability to own our actions. So being proactive means to activity choose what your response will be in any situation rather than to react blindly. Being proactive exposes us to learn and understand the business trends and what is expected of us. I learned some pretty good...
