Conclusions

This semester was absolutely full of learning and experiences. I can say that the experiences and teachings shared have been absorbed, There have been meaningful readings and lessons received because of the particular situation I was going through while studying the class.

There is one particular reading that I would ask everyone to read again, it is "Are Successful Entrepreneurs Born or Made?". The reading contains powerful insights into the secret to success and its explanation of how the combination of skills, character, and luck are key concepts to our entrepreneurship life.

The journey is not easy but it is full of opportunities, which if are well taken will take you to your most desirable goals. Challenges are present all the time and in several different ways but patience is a most for our entrepreneurial life. Because of my religion and beliefs, I also encourage you to seek divine inspiration and be humble. As human beans we know nothing compared to God, however, he delivers blessings and protect us as we trust in his wisdom. Please, recognize that we depend on Him. Get closer to Him and you will experience a combination of good things in your life.

I am still in the process of solidifying my business idea, it has been an extremely long process and with a diversity of positive changes. I am looking forward to continuing receiving knowledge from wise business people who have gone through all the scenarios. I am eager to start the next semester and willing to continue making changes in my business life.

Another advice, read! Please do your assignments on time, reflect on your learning process and read everything you are invited to read. I have been able to experience the benefits of reading constantly. One of the blessings received from reading is that my capacity to retain information has improved considerably. I have also learned from different perspectives about particular business concepts. I have also started to think more deeply and assertively in my business plans and changes to some of my ideas. In other words, read a lot because that makes a huge difference!

Finally, I would suggest you rely on your mentors. Trust them and be grateful to them because they have probably gone through the same issues you are experiencing but they have overcome those. Share with them your achievements and involve them in your life. There is nothing to lose by having good friends and respectful mentors.

Entrepreneurship

This has been a year full of challenges and opportunities. I would say that developing a business project such as the one I am dealing with is not easy, in fact creating a call center is complicated and requires a considerable investment of time and money. Something intriguing for me was I had evaluated several items mentioned in the reading "Identifying and Exploiting the Right Entrepreneurial Opportunity...for You" when I was looking for venture capital. Unfortunately for me, I did not pass the last filter in a local presentation of business projects that our city hall was looking to finance. After reading the text mentioned above, I had realized what other aspects are taken into consideration for these investments. I feel encouraged to make some adjustments to my business project. I feel like I now have more valuable information to create a better opportunity for my society. I have also felt identified with the description given of how an entrepreneur is like, citing...

Spiritual insight

This week I want to focus my writing on spiritual things I had to analyze. When I heard Jan Newman's talk "Loyalty to God and Family" it really made me ponder on how centered is my heart in God and my family. I am right now in the long process of developing a huge business (with 2 partners in different countries) which not only requires money and business knowledge but it also demands time of quality to concentrate and focus on certain aspects of the project. I also have a calling as the ward's secretary and I need to go throughout the week to the chapel and meet with the bishopric, however, I have personally experienced how easily a voice comes to me saying "Don't go this week, concentrate on your business. You can still go next week and it will be fine!" That is a constant voice I hear whenever it comes to attend to Church assignments. The reason why I am bringing these experiences is that it makes me remember a promise received from my Mission Presid...

Retaking an educational life

After almost 6 years without studying this decision I have made has been an extremely exciting and blessing experience. There is a power in the educational system of BYU, and when we combine the spiritual and edutacional kills we will all develop throughout our new journey we can expect to be real Disciples of Christ. This 1st week has been imperative for a clear understanding of my purpose here at BYU and the expectations that the University, my family and the Lord have with me. President Hinckley and Elder Bednar were very direct addressing this subject and considering their wise point of view, there are just more than good feelings about this new challenge and opportunity in my life. I love businesses and I am able to spend  a great part of the day thinking on different ideas or projects that may benefit others and that could also be great business opportunities. I have pondered a lot over the words of Jeff Sandefer in Living Life as an Entrepreneurial Hero when he says, ...
