Goals

Yesterday in class we were talking about goals whether or not they should have a time limit on them. Covey seemed to say yes and no to that matter. To challenge ourselves we to give ourselves time frame to which we need to accomplish that goal. yet remember there are outside influence on us that hinder our ability to do it. Be proactive in the goal do all you can all the time. Yet take goal (mission statement) and review be flexible enough to change it but hard enough to keep it a challenge. Like picking out the knife you don't want one that is so hard that you sharpen or that it is so brittle that will brake on the first use. On the flip side you don't want one that is so soft that it won't keep the sharp edge and bend easily. The happy medium is what you want and that different for every person. For me Rockwell 58 or 59 is what I like strong yet easily sharpened and not brittle. The key I think is to keep it up maintain the goal, review it, sharpen it, if necessary change it.

Jerika Barnes

Hi my name is Jerika Barnes. I am from Cedar City, Utah. I'm the youngest of 4 kids, and my parents are both business and accounting graduates. Both of my parents have been very successful in their careers in the business field, so I guess I'm hoping to do the same and follow in their footsteps. This is my first year up here at Utah State, however I did a year at Southern Utah University, where my dad is a professor in the business program. It was a great school, but Utah State is so much better. :) I am hoping to go to the Ukraine this Summer and teach children English, and I love a good laugh with some friends, school, music, and volleyball. I am taking this class to see if business is really the major I want to pursue, and so far I am loving it.

KC (Not Jacquelyn) Walbom :)

Hi everyone, the name you'll hear in class is Jacquelyn but I go by my middle name KC (have always hated Jacquelyn, just sounds like a mean older lady...) Right? Haha...

I graduated a year and a half early from Weber High in Ogden moved to Salt Lake on my own for awhile, now I'm up here in boring ole Logan. Haha

I'm in this class because I'm an International Business major, I basically want to get paid to travel ;) but also choosing my own hours and destinations would be my dream! You don't know how terrified I am about having a 9-5 job! I want to have mini-retirements through out my life and not work my butt off and gamble on the chance of having one when I'm an old lady.

I have an entertainment website I want to publicise this year and also some little things I want to patent and distribute to local convenient stores within the next 3 years then hopefully nationally.

I'm a freshman technically... going on to my third semester. I've been taking my time but really just want to hurry up my degree and start seeing the world! I really hope to get to know you all this semester and I'm excited have some intelligent conversations in class for a new change!

Sam Christensen

Business Buddies,

My name is Sam Christensen and I am from Alpine, UT.I'm a Sophomore here at USU. I love living in Logan. Something about me that you may find interesting is that I'm the youngest of 7 kids, and I'm the odd one out in my family in almost every way! My Dad is 5'10 and my mother is 5'6, and somehow i am 6'4. I'm 4 inches taller than all 4 of my brothers who all played football at the University of Utah, but i couldn't play football due to a heart condition. I am the only one in my family to attend USU, but also the only one to serve an LDS mission that wasn't spanish speaking or in south america. I recently returned from that mission in Boston, Massachusetts 3 months ago. I'm excited for the class and to get to know everyone a little better.
