Lessons of the Heart: Perseverance, Passion, and Purpose in Entrepreneurial Journey

I learned many meaningful things from different leaders and stories. I feel so thankful for these learnings because they make me think deeply about my life, my dream, and what kind of person I want to become.

First, I learn from President James E. Faust about Perseverance. His talk touched my heart. He said, “Success is earned by not giving up.” It reminds me to stay strong even when life is hard. Sometimes I feel tired and want to stop, but now I know I must keep trying, little by little, every day.

Then I learn from Randy Komisar in How to Find Your Passion and How to Pursue It. He teaches me passion is not just one thing. We have many passions, and we can choose the one that matches our values and direction. This helps me not feel stressed about “finding the one thing” but feel excited to explore more.

Another idea that surprised me is from David Friedberg in Most Entrepreneurs Are Not Rock Stars. He said most startup founders don’t become famous or rich, and that’s okay. This teaches me not to chase fame but to focus on solving problems and helping people.

The most beautiful message I learn is from A Hero’s Journey. It’s not about being perfect. It’s about being brave, kind, and faithful. I learn that my life has meaning, and I can become a hero in my own way by serving others and growing with God.

Last, I enjoy the real story of Warm Fuzz Cards by Erica Mills. Her business is not big, but her heart is big. She uses her art to spread happiness. This inspires me so much. I want to build something one day that makes people feel love and joy, just like her cards.

Anyway, this week makes me feel strong inside. I still have many things to learn, but I’m excited. I want to live with purpose, grow with faith, and serve others with love.

Thanks for reading my thoughts. 

A dreamer on the journey.
