week 11

This week I really liked reading the talk by President Monson. The part that stood out to me the most is when he said, “I would say to each mother, each father—be a good listener. Communication is so vital today in our fast-paced world. Take time to listen. And to you children, talk to your mother and to your father. It may be difficult to realize, but your parents have lived through many of the same challenges which you face today. Often they see the big picture more clearly than you can. They pray for you each day and are entitled to the inspiration of our Heavenly Father in providing you counsel and advice.” I think in our world of technology we are losing personal communication and relationships are suffering because of it.

I also really liked the video about making it personal and making it work as an entrepreneur. I think it is so important to find something you enjoy doing and that you go after that thing. By doing so you are making work personal. And if you make work personal, you make it important to you and you will enjoy doing that thing. If we enjoy what we are doing we won’t be miserable at work and we will make whatever we are going after work for us.
