Lesson 5

This week I read a case study which helped me to remember I have to use my talents to bless others. Eric Mills worked hard to increase her profits, but worked twice to research, plan, design, and give the customers what they wanted. As she did, we can also use our talents to benefit the lives of many people.

I also enjoyed the podcast video because it had a strong relationship with the case. There are three things we learn at BYUI:

• How to learn
• How to make money
• How to live a life of meaning

We usually think that learn how to make money is what will make us successful, therefore, we just focus on making money. However, those who are older than us have realized the most important is living a life of meaning because that is what makes a difference.

• Have I contributed to something meaningful? 
• Was I a good person?
• Who did I love? 

If we learn how to live a life of meaning, we will find our calling which will help us to serve and bless the life of others. Even if the hero´s journey is hard, we should never give up.

A hero´s journey is not easy, but we will be satisfied because we made a difference by using our gifts to change the world.
