The Heart of Entrepreneurship

I had an interesting session with my mentor who is also an entrepreneur last week during my interview with him. And In fact after the interview we all including his family had lunch together, it was an interesting moment to me where he took me round his house and showed me the national award he won in 2006 and 2013 and his accomplishments. I have learnt a lot from him and this has completely shaped my life for the great work ahead.

In fact I have not regretted in any way taking up this course and am grateful to my Father in Heaven and my instructor for helping me go through this course. One interesting thing I came across when reading The Heart of Entrepreneurship by Howard H. Stevenson and David E. Gumpert is “If only our nation’s businesses—large and small— could become more entrepreneurial, the thinking goes, we would improve our productivity and compete more effectively in the world marketplace”

What does it mean? It means being innovative, flexible, dynamic, risk taking, creative, and growth oriented. It means we must constantly seize opportunities that come our way. That is what my mentor did, he seizes the opportunity that came his way and made sure the right things are put in place at the right way and time.

In conclusion, what is important in the end is what we have become by our labors. Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles
