BECOMING A CHANGE-MAKER

 ENTREPRENEUR, CONSECRATION, AND CHANGE-MAKER

The following are the top three ideas I have acquired from this week's study materials:

1. Business and sanctification.
2. Become an agent of transformation.
3. Look for the desire to be virtuous.

What I had intended to do with my life as an entrepreneur has been confirmed after reading the provided papers and viewing the videos. The three ideas I learned are so crucial that they have improved my understanding of what someone with wealth should do and why they should do it.

Elder Gay described his early years and the events that boosted his determination to battle for his family's financial independence. Because of his financial independence, he did not back down and instead grasped the idea of devotion.  To help him construct Zion, he gave his tithe, learned how to manage his money better, and helped the less fortunate. It also tells me that an entrepreneur must make changes in all they do in order to change the game. All individuals should be impacted by the changes, which should bring about financial stability and inspire them to live moral lives and serve God. 

Again, if a person gains wealth by whatever means, he should give it to the less fortunate so that they can all become one, as Christ predicted. Make it a reality and a personal goal that by benefiting others, enormous success may be attained at the conclusion of the trip.

Learning and being truthful in my tithing payment is the first thing I need to accomplish. Whether it is a large or small salary or compensation, I will pay my tithe as soon as I get it. As I embark on this entrepreneurial adventure, I'll also keep an eye out for the positive aspects that will contribute to my success. 

I will always give greater weight to providing assistance to the weak, allowing them to learn new skills, and acting as a catalyst for their development. My family's expansion will be a top priority for me, ahead of the Lord and His ministry. Serving others will be my trademark, and I'll learn to adjust to changes to bring much more success to the people I aid. I'll also make sure to give full credit to the Lord for everything I do.

MEASURING THE COST

 FAMILY AND WORK

This week was a tough one presenting with us a case study that does happen in the world today. 

Balancing work with family is one of the challenges that businessmen and entrepreneurs face in their life all the time. In the video "Balancing Your Life and Work Effectively," Randy Komisar discusses choosing priorities and making compromises. I concur with him that we must establish our priorities to avoid being disoriented while pursuing our goals and that some tradeoffs are unavoidable. Meg Cadoux Hirshberg provided some excellent recommendations in the film "Surviving the Entrepreneurial Life: Work and Family," including scheduling regular, scheduled family meetings, learning about and understanding your kids' needs, and including the family in your job. She gives good advice on how to make the most of intimate situations. These suggestions are excellent for the second mini-case scenario. We will be able to accomplish more with their help if we are open with them and involve our family, rather than failing. 

A proper perspective is crucial whenever we are at a crossroads. It aids us in establishing sound priorities and preventing loss while achieving our aspirations. I am appreciative of the lesson from this week and even more appreciative that I do not have to make difficult decisions like the one in the little instances. I take seriously anything having to do with the family. I initially had a lot of reservations about it, but I've now realized that no matter what, my family comes first. Clients will come and go, but my family and our relationship will always be there. I will use technology effectively and explain to the customer why it is necessary to use it at this time because it has advanced and can be used to complete all business activities.

I discovered that living a life of fulfillment does not involve working nonstop as an entrepreneur to gain money; rather, it entails loving people, juggling job and family obligations, honoring the Lord in your life, pursuing your calling, and doing good. I will never swap my family for anything that will rather damage our love for each other and Heavenly Father. The world constantly offers us tricks that make it desirable most of the time, but if we venture into it, it will demolish everything we spent years building. 

As I make my way into the world of entrepreneurship, this case is teaching me a lot. I'm learning that I shouldn't ever put my job before my family and that instead, I should be wise and devoted to both. Integrity is the defining trait.

In the end, we are remembered with this hymn " There is beauty all around when there's Love at Home."

DREAM BIG DREAMS

 THE CHALLENGE TO BECOME

The lesson from this week made me happy and gave me more understanding of how, as an entrepreneur, I should live my life.

I now have a more comprehensive understanding of the life of an entrepreneur thanks to the readings Think Big, License to Pursue Dreams, Your Emotional Imprint, and The Challenge to Become. I will therefore condense these into three key ideas for myself as I navigate this life.

1. Be who you are.

2. Have a plan and keep individuals in mind.

3. Get your prize.

Be who you are. I've come to understand that to succeed in life, one needs to be at ease with oneself, dream large, and be open with others. The Challenge to Become taught me that to reach the highest level of heaven, one must be converted and that having a testimony is not the only path to follow. As such, I now know that I must make accommodations that will allow me to be who I am while also receiving the necessary care and producing goods that are satisfactory for human needs.

Plan and keep others in mind. With "License to Pursue Dreams," I have also realized that it is others who will accept my abilities and skills and value my sacrifice. Considering this, I must have a strategy that will enable others to endorse me favorably and provide me the freedom to consistently pursue my dreams. As an entrepreneur, a strategy won't be successful if the people aren't kept in mind. For this reason, as I continue to be myself and make plans, the people should be kept in mind: they are my life suggestions.

Try to get your Gem. The Challenge to Become has taught me that, as an entrepreneur, I should never give up and consider the likelihood that I will realize my dream. The ability to endure despite any obstacles or hurdles I may face is ultimately what will determine if I achieve my goals. As these appear, Your Emotional Fingerprint appears, where I must identify and comprehend the reasons behind how I react to various life circumstances. The more positive traits I cultivate, the more they will help me plan and be prepared to accept any obstacles that may come my way. Throughout this time, I'm learning how to correct my blueprint and unleash my inner good wolf. I learned from Taylor Richards to always uphold my potential. He declared: "Never let someone convince you that you can't fulfill your goals and desires. Also, if you include the Lord, you can achieve your goals."

Big dreams can be realized only through a combination of self-improvement, goal setting, self-belief, celebration, other people's support, and a trustworthy and forward-thinking society.

NOTE: A zigzag plan that takes a long time to succeed is preferable to short-term happiness.

DISCIPLE LEADERSHIP

 LEADERS AND TRUSTWORTHY PEOPLE

A disciple is an individual who learns about and follows the Savior, Jesus Christ.

A leader is an individual who manages a group of people to attain a specific goal and therefore takes such a group of people to higher ground. I have come to know that not only do leaders lead, but they also learn and follow Jesus Christ in all aspects of their lives. They teach and place more emphasis on building trust in a working environment or anywhere they may find themselves.

To build trust among working colleagues, a leader must be an example and have a well-built image of trust. They become trustworthy people who are bakers and not eaters. They have the default of saying "Yes." Trust is built when employers seek to employ good and nice people. People who have the capabilities to keep learning keep trying new things. People who learn to collaborate in an environment of passion and good leadership Character also matters to help make the whole process of building trust certain and valuable.

 

As an entrepreneur, I have come to understand that I have to promote trust as my hallmark and be a leader who causes things to happen and motivates people with their willing conviction. As I grow into the entrepreneurial life, I need to be quick to adapt to changes that may occur along the way. It is not enough to be good and nice; one must also have the attribute of trust, because that will create an avenue of love and friendship with consumers of my products. I should learn how to teach this with power and help people realize their potential. As an entrepreneur, you must learn to be a baker and not an eater, which portrays diligence and illumines the leadership power in them to help speak power to the never-ending change in the human race.
