First Week

“But remember: pursue something where you have some sort of a natural gift, one that brings you great joy, one where you lose track of the hours spent in it, and one where you would practice for the sake of practice alone. Why? Because the road to mastery is a long and trying one: it usually takes at least ten years and ten thousand hours of practice.”

When I decided to take this course, I did not imagine how beneficial it would be even since the first class. There have been some phrases and ideas that have caught my attention and made me ponder if my actions are leading me to the person I want to be. 

I think I have been following dreams that are not mine. I just expected to achieve what others do: Having a house, a job, and a car. I did not know where and how to start, and it was because I was not dreaming by myself. I was also omitting an important part to start this entrepreneurial journey: Recognize what I am good at - my talents.

Each time someone ask me about what I´m good at, I have to think more than twice before answering. Sometimes I prefer to do not participate in the conversation just because I cannot recognize any special talent. However, this week I learned that maybe those gifts come naturally that is hard for me to recognize them.

What is my dream? 
What is my talent or gift? 

This week I will focus on finding the answers to these questions that will help me to start my life as an entrepreneurial hero.
