Web Business Blog – Week #2

This is the first of a series of blogs reviewing what I’m currently learning in my Web Business class.

I really like how web pages work today far different from the early days of the internet. These are now accessible than ever and user-friendly which means you won’t have to learn anything in order to use that website. There are some successful businesses that have found great wealth through a web site, and now I have an opportunity to learn how to manage my own in this new college class.

My first week of work was not easy; maybe because I’m new at comparing business models or choosing products. The first assignment prompted me to consider if I should prepare a business model first or the product instead. I was convinced to prepare a business model first because I strongly believe that you need to study your market audience and all their needs. This was first suggested through the reading material in a BizThought article

“Choose a specific target market you want to serve before even thinking about a product or service. Understand that market’s demographics, psychographics, behaviors, beliefs, needs, wants, and problems.”

I would now focus on my audience in order to make a product they will like. Now, I have also been thinking about what kind of web business would I have? I’m still not sure although the purpose of this class is to prepare a real operation. The last assignment of the week prompted me to think in 20 business ideas and choose the best 5. I was a bit confused at the beginning, but things got a bit more understandable after reading the instructions carefully.

This new class is certainly surprising for everything that is requiring, but I will do my best to learn and become a web developer every day.

 

 

Remember to Have Patience

Having patience seems like something everyone knows; like saying ” I know everything about it”. It is indeed more than that. The poet, Joyce Meyer, said: “Patience is not simply the ability to wait – it’s how we behave while we’re waiting”

Patience

There have been some situations where I lost completely my patience even in simple things. College work and a slow computer is an awful combination in my opinion, and it is especially annoying when you have to work with people that don’t work at all.  Lacking patience turns you into an unpleasant presence for anyone. I have said things that made everything worse by hurting those I love. Anger is contrary to patience and can lead to an unfortunate end.

A Great Example

While pondering about this topic, I considered the example of Christ in His last moment. After being tortured in the cross and mocked by the guards. He beheld everyone contemplating His death like a criminal. Christ’s simple words in Luke 23:34

“Then said Jesus, Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do. And they parted his raiment, and cast lots.”

Jesus

Even in the worst situation possible, Jesus didn’t seek vengeance and had patience above everything. I want to provide some recommendations as well:

• We can overcome a bad day patiently learning from our past mistakes so we may improve.
• Behaving ourselves avoiding anger is another core component of the solution.
• Stop your bitter words if anything unexpected happens and kindly address people like Jesus did throughout His life.

I know we are all capable of having patience in a world where everything seems to go fast. I believe in Christ as my prayers have been answered and He exists.

Thank you very much for reading this post made for you!
