Personal Project Update

This week was pretty amazing I think. I was visited by one of my uncles and I sat down with him to find out more about his business. I would love to work with him and his partners. When I was sitting with him I asked a little bit about my situation and what was the best path for me to go down to find out about the industry. Also I asked him about doing an internship with him. He was willing to give me an opportunity to maybe work for him. That is going to be a lot of fun. I also presented him with the idea of maybe looking into BYU-Idaho students for internships down the road. So I have some more meetings with him about that.

I realized this week that I need to spend more time with more mentors in the university and less with my little things. I have found out that the teachers here are ready to teach us things and show us things that do not come in a textbook. I need to spend more time going behind teachers. I love the influence that they have on the work force. Also I decided to continue on this job interview that a company out of Idaho Falls is trying to open up for students around here. It is a small investment firm that they have and are trying to expand by hiring other people, maybe interns. Right now that is my main focus because it will help me move forward into the work force. If I am going to be a financial adviser then I need to understand investments a lot more than I do now.
