Entrepreneur Journal - Entry 2 (B283)



There was a lot of really good material in our readings and video assignments this week.

President Hinkley’s talk was very moving, especially since I love him so much. His message was one of love and hope for the youth of today and his belief in their potential and abilities.

There was a great Power Point on Entrepreneurship that contained two quotes that really stood out to me:

Our doubts are traitors, and make us lose the good we oft might win by fearing to attempt.”
-          William Shakespeare

Every discovery in science and are that is really true and useful to mankind, has been given us by direct revelation from God.”
-           Dallin H Oaks

My $100 Challenge venture has been crazy this week!!! I sent an email out to friends and neighbors of the assignment details and what “company” I was starting and the product I was offering (Handmade Valentine Banners in two varieties: hot pink and black patterns and then one in vintage patterns.)  I couldn’t believe the response! I had almost 3x as many orders as I had anticipated and prepared for. So most of my week has been spent getting those orders filled. As a result my homework has been piling up – not good! I’m tired and I think by brain is numb from cramming so much homework into such a short time. Three classes is way too much for me in one semester. It’s ok, I’ll sleep in April when the semester is over:)
