I learned a lot of important principles during this week’s readings and videos about overcoming challenges. So far in this course, being an entrepreneur it was repeatedly emphasizes about these three principles which are; Perseverance, Patience and Hard work.
During this week’s readings one of the most reading that got my attention was the talk of Jeffrey R. and Patricia T. Holland in titled “However Long and Hard the Road”. It was the history of the pioneers whom they applied the Principles of Faith, Patience, Perseverance and Hard work. I was inspired by this history of the church in the past, Indeed perseverance is the key for success. To become a successful entrepreneur is to apply these principles. From the video “Good Things to Come” it demonstrated faith, the young couple experienced problems while travelling with their car. The faithful young husband had faith that there will be help somewhere and so he did walk his way to find it. The wife and their children patiently waited for the coming back of the husband hoping that he can bring with him someone to help them.
In our own personal lives and in our entrepreneurial journey we should always remember and I want to quote it from the video Good Things to come “Don’t you quit! You keep walking. You keep trying. There is help and happiness ahead. Some blessings come soon. Some come late, and some don’t come till Heaven. But for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come. It will be alright in the end. Trust God, and believe in good things to come.”
Going back to the history of the church in building the temple of God, the faithful pioneers never quits despite all the trials threats and persecutions they experienced yet they continuously moves forward, because of their great faith and sacrifices I together with the saints during this time were blessed and enjoying the fruits of their labor. I will keep this lesson that I learned in my heart and apply it in my entrepreneurial journey and in my own personal life.
