Week 4 Journal Entry

This week I have learned a lot about identifying my fears, and also how to overcome them and achieve the goals that I have. The team that presented this week, posed the question "what will hold you back from attaining your dreams?". As I have pondered that, I have come to the conclusion that one thing that holds me back from time to time is my lack of focus. I am very creative, and at times that serves as a weakness for me because it distracts me from certain mundane tasks like homework and such. I have decided that I am going to hold myself accountable to a set schedule so that I know what I have to do and when to do it. I feel like this will help me later on down the road of life as well. I feel like another positive factor in helping me overcome this roadblock, will be the Savior and His Atonement. As I rely on Him in faith, I know that I can overcome my weaknesses and make them strengths.

Another thing that I have been pondering this week has been persistence and determination to keep going, even and especially during the hard times. You can't expect instant results and success when first creating a business. It will take time and will have its ups and downs. I want to keep my eyes on the prize and keep working towards achieving my goals; no matter what it takes!
