"Faith without works is dead..."

This week, through the story “Spreading Happiness”, I was able to learn and confirm something I have always had in my mind: When you follow your passion there is nothing bitter or heavy to perform; everything is delightful and everyday a beautiful day to be lived.

Another that really hit me was something stated in the “Are Successful Entrepreneurs Born or Made?” article, which was how entrepreneurs saw money, something not in their top priorities. That goes against most of the people in the world believe, they tend to think entrepreneurs are all about money at any cost, but as it is declared in the text, “some even felt that excess riches were more a burden than a blessing”.

Finally, the key ingredients to become a successful entrepreneur presented in the mentioned article tell me a lot about the type of person I must be, a determined person with skills. But, in the end, I totally agree that character is the most important character to accomplish anything. Skill without character “is dead” just like faith without works. The most skillful people in the history will not make it at all if they do not have the resolution to act and proceed with purpose to achieve whatever they have set for themselves.
