This week's teachings have been very uplifting. Reading about perseverance and if successful Entrepreneurs are born or made has made me ponder in certain thoughts I had.
Elder Faust said, "Success is usually earned by persevering and not becoming discouraged when we encounter challenges." But then I also read that a successful entrepreneur is a combination of skills, character, and luck. So there is a set of things that help an entrepreneur to become successful. Now, I don't like the work luck but rather I call it "divine intervention". I want to believe that God is in every detail of my life and that nothing occurs just because the universe wants it. Definitely, successful entrepreneurs have a combination of skills, character, divine intervention and Christlike attributes.
All of our progress and happiness are also subjected to what we have become by the end of our path. A Hero's journey is not measured by the amount of money one has, nor the type of businesses you ran and neither your acquisitions in life. At the end of this journey the thing that would measure our success and happiness is summarized in the following 3 questions:
1. How have I contributed something meaningful?
2. am I a good person?
3. Whom did I love and who loved me?
How important is to live with a real and clear understanding of the concept of happiness. We all have a calling, a mission in this life, and we must live it wisely by learning to learn, learning to make money and learning to live a life of meaning.
This week has been full of knowledge and advises that I won't forget.
