I chose
to focus on entrepreneurship in my education because of a desire to be a
successful author and copywriter. Although I have many years of experience, I
lack the mind of an entrepreneur. This shortcoming is something I intend to
strengthen, so that I can share my work with others and make a living wage
doing it.
Lessons Learned
Three
important things I learned this week include the following:
1.
The greatest leaders in our country and in my church are men and women who are
highly educated in both the temporal things of the world and the spiritual
things of God.
2.
I learned from Guy Kawasaki how important it is, and that it's okay, to do
what you love. Doing and working for things we have no passion for makes us
miserable. There is no purpose in seeking a career or success only for the
income.
3.
A video message from President Hinckley impressed upon me how important
it is for me to stand tall as I seek education and knowledge hand in hand with
righteous goals and behavior. My representation as a disciple of Christ will
not only help me find success, but find peace as I set an example for others
to follow. The world needs more righteous and Godly leaders in all career paths
and leadership roles.
Lessons Not Learned
1.
Outside of my business class this week, I had a problem finding out how
to tract beginning sales on Amazon for my newest release.
2.
I am unable to load my current release book cover onto Goodreads. I
suspect this may have to be done by an independent reviewer.
