Business 183

This past week I have learned a lot about money and whether or not it is "evil". In my opinion, money itself is not evil. I mean, how could money be evil? It can't even act for itself. Yes, money can be used for evil. But, it can also be used for good. I feel like when people obsess over it, then that is evil and becomes one of the deadly sins in greed. We also learned in class about income statements and how to create them for ourselves based on spending and total revenue. It was interesting to learn how to categorize each of the different things they take into account for an income statement as well. Not the most fun part of business, but still necessary.

Entitled: " feeling  that you have the  right  to do or have what you  want  without having to  work  for it or  deserve  it, just because of who you are"(Cambridge Dictionary) I think our Father in Heaven entitles His children to a married couple who honor those marital vows because it is only fair to the child.

This week I learned some good approaches and some bad approaches when selling any item. As we stood out in the windy and cold weather, we were able to see some good success with the amount of sales we had.

I love the emphasis that the presenting group put on falling forward. Being able to recover and to learn from our mistakes is a huge part of our success whether we realize it or not. We need to learn from our mistakes and ultimately improve. It's a key part of our lives here on earth. It is exactly what our Father in Heaven wants us to do. I really want to implement this mindset in my everyday life and always strive to get up, dust off, and keep moving forward when I do inevitably fail.
