With this week coming to a close, I have hundreds of thoughts running through my head. Along with B183 The Entrepreneurial Journey, I have several other classes that focus on entrepreneurship or new ventures and it's almost too much to take in. That's where I hope this journal will come in handy. I can use it to sort through all of the random topics and tidbits that float through my mind during the week.

The readings this week included "A Disciple Preparation Center" and "Your Whole Souls as an Offering to Him" by David A. Bednar.  Both are great talks for discussing or studying personal growth and becoming a more faithful disciple of the Savior. I was particularly affected by Elder Bednar's description of BYU-Idaho as a disciple preparation center and it made me ponder on the question of whether I was treating it as such. I came to realize that I viewed BYU-Idaho much more as a university than I did as a place that would prepare me for a life of faithful service and love for the Lord. I will now more fully participate in the opportunities that are granted me while I'm here to build a life-long faith in Jesus Christ.

How important it is as an entrepreneur to have your life and values built on the foundation of the Savior with an eternal perspective guiding you. Temporal goals bring temporal results. Eternal goals bring saving results.
