Week 9
From the talk The Challenge to Become from Elder Dallin
H. Oaks Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles from The Church of Jesus Christ of
the Later Saints
“In contrast to
the institutions of the world, which teach us to know something, the gospel of
Jesus Christ challenges us to become something”.
I learned that conversion is through all our life, and
not only for a moment or at the beginning of our journey in the church, for
example I am a convert to the church and I thought I was converted to the
gospel already, but in this talk he explains what really conversion means and how we can accomplish it.
Also from it I realize why some people get to know the
gospel at young age and others in their old, and this is because the type of
life that each of us have, and the preparation that we need in order to be in
the presence of our Heavenly Father.
This week I had my interview with an entrepreneur which
happen to be my mentor too.
From this interview I learned many things, but one of
the most important is to ask questions, and that is right if we want something we
need to ask for it, we need to seek for it, and what a better way to so it by
getting prepare asking the right questions, but it is not only to ask the right
questions but also to ask them to the right people.
I also saw the importance of not only having one
mentor, but to find more. I tough that
with one would have been enough but what I saw was that even my mentor had many
and that helped him to see things from a different way.
By talking with my mentor I saw that what I want to do
it is truly possible, I just need to really leasing and truly be willing to
act, and stop procrastinating. For me
faith means action and if I do not have action I am nothing and is that what I
will accomplish.
