WEEK 12 : BECOMING A CHANGEMAKER

This week was very inspirational as always , I loved the article of Muhammad Yunus , about the economics and the impact that he made in that village. I liked how he sees and explains economics in real life as he call it , since poor people doesn't know or follow directions from any textbooks , these don't apply to real life economics. Loved the idea of how he created his own bank to poor people , this shows the big person he is , and how those people were able to pay back  the money was lent. I really had  a great time watching the video of Larry Brilliant it gave a great lesson on not be pessimist , gave me a great lesson in how to be thankful for whatever we have and to live in this era and in this place, I really loved his speech. I sure had a great time reading and watching the material given .

WEEK 11 : MEASURING THE COST: LIFE BALANCE

This week was really awesome , I liked the readings and the videos . What mostly got me to think was the two mini cases we had to read, their were short but it made me realized on how need to balance our family and being an entrepreneur and how hard can be sometimes to make choices without taking away the family time , which is very important to me  . I also enjoyed watching the video of Meg Cadoux "Surviving the Entrepreneur life : Work and family " . In general this week was a lot from learning and to meditate how to act when and if I face those challenges .

Week 10 : Dream big Dreams

I remember when I was a kid , I used to have the dream to have my own business and have many adjacent places and basically be a successful entrepeneaour. I learned this week with the information ,videos and lectures that we can never stop dreaming. I loved the video of Taylor Richards owner of a boat company in which the first years year made up to the 11th place on the best and second year the 6th place and that gave me a great example on how we have to believe on ourselves and do things the right way because that is going to eventually pay off. I also liked the video "License to Dream "by Marissa Meyer and now I get it why Goggle is such a great emporium and awesome place to work. It was a great week and I loved it .

Journal week 09

Disciple Leadership

I really enjoyed the reading and  videos  assigned of this week, specially since I already have read some of them before in my religious class two semesters ago, it brought me back in time, gave me good memories and refreshed my memory by reading some of the essay I made by that time. The article (message to Garcia) taught us  that we have to be obedient without asking questions .As always I loved the Guy Kawasaki video is which he talks about trusting and the aspects about building it , he is kinda of a good visionary in business, and one think that left me thinking and loved it was that usually people do not ask for unreasonable things and those that are we just do not have to worry about to try enchanting them, this is very wise. In general this video of him tell us that we have to trust in people , because if we do they will do it too. Good to Great by Jim Collins was the book I read last semester and it really taught me to not just be good in whatever we do in life but to try hard and be great, in term of business like the speaker said : good is the enemy of great , this means like AI said before let us not just be good , let our business be great .Another chapter talks about to get rid of people who does not contribute any good to you or your business , and this makes totally sense in any aspect of life. Another  factor to become a great company is to have or create a great product , we have to believe we are the best that means to be confident on what we are offering , and last to have passion on what we are doing or offering as a product . I really , really enjoyed this week materials and felt like I really learned a lot .
