What is important?

What is important? What really matter? This a deep question. Regrettably, the answer sometimes is where we don’t hope. Small things make great things. Sometimes, we can have lost our path looking for big things, when smalls thing performs all big project.

If you are not sure what is the important in your life, I counsel you to listen your heart. Praying, and look for divine help is a good idea.

You shouldn’t forget that preparation is important before start any venture. And, I am not talking just about academic preparation, preparation include emotional and physical condition to put face to the journey.

Is the hard work the key to success?

Hard work is important, but hard work don’t depend of long hours of work, it is much about how good you plan and execute your work. If you are working long hours without time for your family, you are in the wrong direction.

What is the perfect venture?

This is an easy question. You must to identify what you born to do, when you know what is your purpose, you must identify your gifts and what can you reach with your abilities, and finally with this sum of motivation and abilities put in the market the thing or service for that people are willing to pay.

Most of entrepreneur don`t reach their goals because they abandon their purpose, or they don’t see a soon happy ending.

Monson shared a formula to success in our live. The 3 steps that he shares are: Fill our mind with truth Fill our live with service And, fill our heart with love I have proved that 3 steps work to have a happy life.

President Monson suggest “that when we search for truth, we search among those books and in those places where truth is most likely to be found.” The knowledge from good books help us to avoid bias in our path to the happiness. Service, it is one of the best ways to enrich our life of happiness. Implicit factors in service are to be grateful wi...
