This week in my Business Class we were required to read articles and watch videos that will help us with our businesses. Some of the articles and videos talked about branding a business, creating a name, and creating business models. One particular article that really has stuck with me is from President Gordon B. Hinkley at the dedication of the President Hinkley Building at BYU. In this talk he says "
"Now, don't ever do a cheap or a tawdry or a mean or an evil thing, my dear young friends. You don't have to engage in these things. The world is on a slippery slide, it is going downhill and it is going fast. And you are as a beacon on a hill young people of rectitude and virtue and decency and goodness. Remain that way. Do not destroy your effectiveness. Do not become involved in any kind of behavior which would destroy you, injure you, hurt you, debilitate you in any way whatever. You don't have to do those things. You can stand above them. You must stand above them! "
There are alot of companies in the world today who are very successful. What this talk teaches me is to remain honest and humble. Do not try to cheat your company to try and make it successful; it will only hurt the company. i believe that as we do good in our companies that god will help our company to grow. My father in law employs a lot of struggling people and his work struggles because of this. My father in law always tells me that God will keep the company up and going because he's helping take care of his children.
Stay tuned next week to see some pics of Bows and our Brand name and logo.
