W07 Reflection: Entrepreneurial Journey

 Date: 09/05/2022

  • This week the things that stood out to me the most, were the ideas of having an attitude of gratitude and being a constant learner. The reason these things stood out most to me are because I feel like I lack a lot in both of these. I often find myself being very pessimistic and negative and letting the stress and possible negative outcomes rule how I think. I don't look at the hopeful things and a lot of that is because of the lack of gratitude that I often have. I felt very inspired as I studied this week, that I need to start looking for and focusing on all the amazing blessings that I have in my life especially when things don't seem to be going the best. I know that if I start doing this, I will become a happier, more uplifting person, and that I will find more success in my life.
  • In regard to being a constant learner, I feel inspired that I need to find ways to continue to learn and grow after I graduate. I am a senior right now, and the fall semester will be my last, and I want to make sure that I don't stop learning after that. I have never been happy in the moments that I am not doing anything. I hate being idle and not finding ways to progress in my life, so I want to make sure that I avoid that. I am going to start seeking hobbies, going to classes, maybe earning certificates, finding mentors, etc. I know that each of these things would make me feel content, and possibly lead me to opportunities in my life that I didn't know were available before.
  • I am thankful for this class and the valuable lessons that I have been able to learn about personal growth and my entrepreneurial journey. I am excited to take all the concepts I learned and put them to the test.

W03 Reflection

 Date: 08/10/2022 There were many takeaways that I got while watching, "A Hero's Journey", but the main ones that stood out to me were:  1. We need to learn how to listen and ask questions rather than focus on being the smartest person in the room 2.Reflect on the the things that you lose track of time doing, and find ways to pursue them. 3.Ask the people around you what you are good at  4.Find a way to satisfy a need in the world These things stood out to me the most because I have been struggling and trying to figure out my divine potential. I have so many passions, goals, and ambitions, but I often struggle to know what is best for me. I have been counseling with the Lord and my family for those answers, but I feel that this talk was part of my answer. I feel that once I heard these ideas, I had a better understanding of how I should move forward and now have a concrete plan to figure out what makes me the person I am and how I can use my talents and gifts to become wh...

W04 Reflection: Entrepreneurial Journal

 Date 08/19/2022 As we studied the overview of the 7 habits, there was one in particular that stood out to me the most and that was, "Begin with the end in mind." The reason that this one stood out to me so much is because I have always struggled with anxiety. A lot of my anxiety debilitates me from doing things, and causes me to put the future in a negative light. I always worry about money, my future home, providing for future children, the possible negative situations that could or could not happen, and all of the things that come with growing up. As I read the overview of this habit, and sat and thought about what I would want my "ending" to look like, it made me come to an important realization. When I am at the end of my life, I don't want to look back and think about all the things I missed out on, and all the time I sat contemplating about the future. I don't want to sit and think about what I missed out in the present because I was so worried about ...
