My last Lecture...

Are you planning on starting your business? What is stopping you? If you have a dream, go and pursue it!

                My dad is a wonderful man. He spend 25 years of his life  working for a great company that one day decided that they needed him no more. He tried to start over but it was hard for a 50 years old man to find a new job. After watching his experience I realized that it is not worth it giving your life to a company that at the end will fire you. New people more prepared and younger are looking for a job and for the companies is easier to hire  new people and pay them less than to have an experienced old man that deserves more money. They usually pick the youngest and cheaper with no experience. After living this experience and watching my dad that needed to support a family of ten I realized that it is better to start a business. It can seem risky in the beginning but working for others is more risky because no one is indispensable for any company. There are many benefits when a person finds something that they like that also gives them money. As a child I was happy but we never had a lot. My dad worked hard but his payment wasn’t that much. When someone owns a company, they can start having little resources but if they know how to manage the company they usually have success. If you have both opportunities to start a company or to work for someone else, I strongly recommend starting your own business. It is hard but worth it! Prepare yourself, study and pay the price to become an entrepreneur!

Easter Week

This was a great week to remember the Atoning Sacrifice Jesus Christ did for each one of us by giving us the opportunity to repent and return to the presence of our Heavenly Father again. There has been many wonderful people on earth that have learn from their mistakes, that no matter what they have accomplished their goals. Great leaders also experience difficulties and failures. Jesus Christ was the perfect example of overcoming difficult things we read in Matthew 26:39 "And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt." Jesus Christ was willing to do his Father's will. Great leaders know how to follow the will of the Father, they know that in order to accomplish great things we need perseverance and faith that they will accomplish their goals.
This week i made a presentation to report my $100.00 Challenge. The challenge is over. My classmates came up with good business ideas. Starting a business requires diligence and a good business plan. We all learned a lot on the way. Practicing is the best school we can have. Knowing the theory is not the same that bringing in to practice. I have learned a lot more of small business management and I will apply the new knowledge in my family business.
