Starting my entrepreneurial journey has been exciting to me with reading all the information.  I just feel joy and a sense that I can accomplish things perhaps even great things.  I loved reading how entrepreneurs are always curious, thinking how service could be better, or why a company went out of business or why so many people love  a certain place because I constantly do that and love it.  I already love to ask questions and gain knowledge from others. I’m excited to reflect more on myself and what I am meant to accomplish. I hate social media, so I’m nervous about doing Linkedin.  I know that it can be beneficial though, so I will jump.  I loved hearing life is too short to surround yourself with jerks.  That is so true.  I always want to surround myself with real, kind competent people.  I want to have relationships with people where I work with them in good ways.
A weakness of mine is I always want security.  I love to do plans that are fail proof.  I’m still learning to be okay with failure that is how we learn.  I still need to work on that.  I liked the idea of developing a competitive advantage.  That is something I want to do. 
It’s important to have integrity and have side rails or boundaries for yourself.  I want to have boundaries now I will never do anything dis honest, I will be real with people, and I will never allow myself to become pompous or arrogant, I will try to find win win situations, and help others.  If I become very well off I will not show it by what I or my family consume.  I want to prioritize my life so I can plainly see what I value most.  All these things add up to personal branding.  I want to become the person I was meant to be.  I always want to keep learning and growing.  I will always set goals to better myself.
Goals
 Write in my entrepreneurial journal whenever I have an entrepreneurial experience.
Surround myself with people I want to be like.
Ask questions from those who have been successful.
Have an attitude of gratitude.
Read good books.

Help others, don't get caught in Pride
