This is my first attempt posting to my blog so I hope all goes well. This post is about articles I have read on one's passion for their careers. Successful people have at least one of the three types of passion for their job/career, but very successful people have two or all three. It's to have a passion for the work you do, the passion for excellence, or the passion of/for life. What comes easy for some doesn't for others and some skills can be learned to be successful but passion is what drives people to be successful at home and work. Very few people get to be successful without first working jobs that have nothing to do with what they love to do or what makes them happiest but their passion, whatever it is, will keep them moving forward toward their vision of success.
     Passion for the work you do will get you through the mundane or dirty tasks that need to be done to reach your vision, passion for excellence ensures you will always give 100%, and passion for life keeps you moving forward until you live and give your children the life you want and want them to have. Having a job that relates to your passion can be a stepping stone to get you to where you want to be. If you are passionate about wildlife try to find a job that somehow relates to wildlife. The more you know about wildlife the closer you will be to a career that you are passionate about. There are some downfalls in having so much passion, like not spending as much time with your family as you would like, not sleeping enough, or a tight budget, but figuring out your passions as early as possible and buckling down the sooner you can become successful.
     It all depends on what a particular person views as success. Success in the eyes of one person isn't necessarily success for someone else and we shouldn't compare ourselves with anyone else because we are all different in many ways. Being different is what makes humans so interesting and our capability to go after our dream creates a passion within some of us to flourish in our work/career and/or our home. I think finding the balance and having great discipline are the hardest things to master when looking for or finding our true passions. Each one of us has to decide if we are going to stay on the plateau or continue to climb the mountain. People who stay on the plateau don't have enough passion for the climb up the mountain or are high enough.

Miriam Verdugo Week 7- 137 IC This class has really opened my eyes as what it takes to start a business and I have found out that it is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. I didn't think I would need contracts with the person I would go into business with but I guess one falling out between us could end things badly and if there was no partnership contract then one of us could keep everything and leave the other with nothing and there would be nothing that could be done about it. Having a signed agreement with the customer I get because when I use to help a friend with his hauling business customers would always try to add work and not want to pay more. I get that aspect of business completely. Keeping records and figuring out where the monies go will be my strong point in running a business. My partner will have to give total control of finances over to me in order for it to work out because he doesn't understand that all the money made is not spending m...

Tax planning and the people who can help. WEEK 4 MNGT 137 IC This week was confusing for me trying to keep all the information straight.  When my business gets up and running hopefully, I will have a better understanding of the whole tax process. I do plan on taking a tax preparation class in the future to further my knowledge on the subject. I didn't realize the importance of accurate bookkeeping until this week. I knew it had to be done but not to the extent. Being the one who will be responsible for every aspect of running my company I have a lot to learn before getting it up and running.  I am thinking of starting it as an LLC instead of a sole proprietor because I won't be able to all the work myself. I will have to check further into the pros and cons of each to make a final decision, but whichever way is easiest and less confusing for taxes is the one I will choose. As long as I keep moving forward and don't give up I can start a successful business.
