W06 Study: So You Want to be an Entrepreneur?

I am having bad times in this moment, it is so hard to keep studying right now, because I need to put all my effort to get out of all the problems that I am having right now. That leave me with very little time to study and other things. I have tried to drop my courses, but I could not do it. I am so happy I did not do it, why? because in the middle of all this problem, I found in the lectures and videos, knowledge and hope, the courage to have self-mastery, self-discipline and self-control. 

Even though I am trying to have a balance in my life, having the proper time to do everything and accomplish y goals, the problems are different and I need to make changes in my life in order to proper face the adversity in my life. I am glad to have the opportunity to be part of this program, to take these courses and have these materials to get in to the great knowledge to help me in my life. 

Every one of the lectures are helping me, since to know what really want of my life, and set up goals to achieve those goals. 

Indeed, I want to have a business and return to be a pilot, fly for a commercial airline. In order to have a business I learned the importance to really have the main aspects to have a successful business and have the proper character to have a good balance in order to handle the success. 

Maybe you think that I am no coherent in what I am doing and how I am doing the things, but as we all learned in the lectures, been a teacher is have the real interest in their students, that is why I decided to tell something about my life, in order you can know more about me and know how to help me. You did not ask me why I missed almost a week not doing the assignments, but I am trying to express what is happening. I will give my best in order to get the highest grade I can, but my interest is not the grades, is in get more knowledge and this knowledge make me wiser applying in my life what I am learning from you in this course. 

Even Though I did not mark exactly what of this I learned from the videos and from the lectures, I concentrated the knowledge in the way I am expressing in these words how all this is helping me and changing my life.

Thanks for all.

W05 Reflection Journal

In this week I learned about the importance of the perseverance in my life, having the right vision of the things and live according my principles. All of those things in the first sight could be look normal or in certain way easy, but those are the keys to success in the life. Sometimes we miss interpreted the word success, thinking in money, cars or big houses, but the real succes become when we achieved our goals according our principles, when we do live a double life and we are congruent in everything we do. Living the same principles in the business, church or family will give us the right vision to live with real happiness in our live.
That, of course is not easy, and needs a lot of perseverance and living with a vision in our live, because if we lose our vision all the temptations in the life will lead us out of our principles so everything that we can do with our professional live will no to be worth it.
