B183 Introduction Week Assignment

This week's assignments have been a bit of a review. I didn't find them a waste of time, however, since the content of the required reading and videos is very valuable and always good to review. I started back into school two semesters ago after 18 years of raising my family. Each semester I'm asked to read articles by President Bednar, President Clark, and President Hinkley. Each article or video covers the mission and purpose of BYU-I and our responsibility as students of this school. Each time I read these it refreshes my testimony and appreciation for this school and its divine purpose. I'm so grateful to be able to be a part of it.

I read the article on Entrepreneur Journals. I can see the value in keeping a journal and I hope to figure out how to organize it the way the author suggested. Since this blog thing is new to me I'm sure it will take some time to figure out how to get it just the way I want it. I'll just ask my eight year old how it's done:)  I think she was born knowing more about computers than I was.

I feel quite inadequate in this class. I wanted to finish my degree in business and the only emphasis available online that appealed to me was Entrepreneurial. It's not necessarily what I would have chosen, but I was actually quite excited to learn more about the subject. It fascinates me how some people are so capable of creating and growing successful businesses. I, on the other hand, don't have a clue how it's done. I've been blessed with many great talents that I believe could be marketed, but I have no idea how. People are always telling me how I could make so much money off the things I create, but I seriously have no clue how to make that a reality. I hate that I'm so clueless on the subject. But I guess ground zero is always a good place to start, right?
