THINGS TO HOLD DEAR

 

These are some of the things I learned this semester that I will take with me forever:

I must learn to start somewhere. Everything starts with first, a dream, even if they are not huge plans there should be something to serve as a propeller. Having a dream matters because it is what fires us up to find purpose and satisfaction in this life

As an entrepreneur, I must see life as a journey which I am embarking on. And in a journey there may be times where I would not have things as I have planned. Life is not going to always be as I want it.

I have learned that I must know what I am made of truly to be successful. Knowing what I am made of will be a constant guide when I figure it out because it will lead me to my start. I would not waste my time in places where I should not be and with people I should not associate with. Knowing my potentials is just not enough if I do not know what drives me and what brings out the best out of me. 

Taking control of one’s life is by standing firmly by the decisions that are made and standing by them. I must make hard decisions sometimes that will improve me, but I first need to be firm in the making of the decision. Success comes with a lot of uncomfortable decision making. I cannot be successful if I do not want to leave the home which is my comfort zone to go out there in the sun to work. This is a decision that I must be willing to go out of the house and being fed by my parents if I want to raise a family of my own and buy things that I need and like.

I have learned that in all my mastering I need to first master myself. That I will have to do a lot of work on myself if I want to be successful. I think that being an expert in what I do would be possible because of myself mastery. I must learn how to control my emotions and appetites and lust. I must control myself, I must discipline myself. I do not have to allow my emotions and lust decide my course of this life. I must take charge and dominion over myself and my life. I must stay on the straight and narrow path. I need to apply self-control in all aspect of my life.

Week7: 7 Habits

  This week I have learned about the 7 habits of highly effective people and out of the 7 t he fifth habit is one that has the most meaning to me. “First seek to understand, then to be understood.” I think this one thing that I would like to master as a person. I have learned previously that by listening to others then only are we able to know their concerns and how to come to their aids. We cannot be empathetic towards other when we have not sort to hear them out or now what they are going through. I think of this habit also as being slow to judging others until we know the entire story. Sadly, most time we fall short to this habit and are quick to conclude on matter with a half knowledge and that is not a good habit. People will only understand us when we have understood them. So, in other to be understood we must be willing to understand others. We can gain the trust of those when we hear them out and they knowing that we care to know their story and we are concerned about t...

Week 1: REFLECTION

  This week I had a few things I took away and they are: As an entrepreneur, I must see life as a journey which I am embarking on. And in a journey they may be times where I would not have things as I have planned. Live is not going to always be as I want it. I must learn to start somewhere. Everything starts with first, a dream, even if they are not huge plans there should be something to serve as a propeller. Having a dream matters because it is what fires us up to find purpose and satisfaction in this life. After dreaming, I must wake up and give life to that dream and that is working the dream. I cannot find meaning and satisfaction in what I have planned until I do what is planned. I have learned that life will not be fair, and that, I must always move on with it. Life is not always going to be blissful-in fact, it is seldom blissful. My daily habits will be etched on my soul, which in turn will become my person or character and so, I must be mindful of what I do eac...
