Week 1

Journal Week 1

It has been a while I kept tracking my journal. I wrote my journal everyday on my mission. I kind of enjoyed writing my journal. Now, I was able to know what I did throughout my mission. At the beginning of my mission, I was not able to speak any language. Because of that, I could not understand what I was trying to say in my journal. Spellings and grammar were awful. Those did not make any sense. However, after 6 months of my mission, I got so much better at writing my journal in my mission language which is English. The reason why I talk about it is that I was able to see the progress of my English skills.

While I was reading through the article "Your Entrepreneur's Journal", I have learned that journals can help me know the progress of my job, what I am struggling with and etc. It can motivate me to keep doing my job, so I can progress. I really liked this quote that says, "Journal is like a mirror." I think it is so true that I can see myself. It is a very personal thing, so you can be sincere and honest.

I think writing is so important as well. As a marketer, ideas are crucial. When these come to my mind, I should write that down. If so, I can develop my ideas. I think many things can be written in this journal. I hope I can get success from this course.

This week was my first semester on campus, I had a hard time with English. I think that it is critical in business nowadays. I decided that I need to keep developing my English skills. I think keeping a journal would help me so much as a marketer. Personally, this course would help me understand a lot more about entrepreneurship as well. I am excited to learn more about it.
