Aristotle once quipped, “Happiness depends upon ourselves.” It has been proven, in my opinion, that his assumption is correct. We must make decisions and go after our dreams to make ourselves happy. I believe that being a part of the Business Scholars program is one brick in the foundation of my happiness.
The Business Scholars program is designed to help students get a foothold in the business world. This program is also designed to help students find the right career, and give them the life skills needed to succeed in the world.

Some of the multitude of opportunities are presented by the Business Scholars program. Being a part of this program alone opens many doors. Throughout the four year membership to this program, students will encounter an abundance of people and just as many, if not more, chances to help them along the way to the perfect career for them. Students must take it upon themselves to take advantage of those opportunities. Being a part of this select group of highly motivated scholars will present me with many occasions meant to help my career and I plan to take advantage of those occasions. I am interested in the Business Scholars program because it will give me the opening I crave to pave the path to my future. Alan Turing was once told, “Sometimes it’s the very people who no one imagines anything of who do the things no one can imagine.” I believe that quote describes my generation down to a T. Nobody expects us to or even believes that we can do anything to help the world. But in the near future, we will be leading the world. What better way to show that I’m ready to help run the world than to join the Business Scholars program and get as much experience as I
Besides the sole proprietorship after reading I learned about three basic types of business organizations known as limited liability (LLC), partnership, and corporation. Sole proprietorship is a “business owned and operated by a single person. The business has no separate legal existence from its owner.” (Rogers, 2012) In the textbook it said “Partnership is an association of two or more competent persons to carry on a business as co-owners for profit. The business itself is not a legal entity.” (Rogers, 2012) The law says competent means a partner having contractual capacity and a partnership where each partners simultaneously a principle and agent. You can partner up with a minor but be wise to emancipation or be cautions because minors can void partnership agreements. Partners of a business are owners and managers automatically unless specified otherwise by partners but according to the law they presume equal rights. “Note that while there can be unprofitable partnerships, there is no such thing as a nonprofit partnership. The partners must intend to make a profit.” (Rogers, 2012)

The most universal goal every human has in common is the pursuit of happiness or “creation or construction of happiness” (Achor, 78). To be able to fulfill this wish of becoming happy, people often think the key to achieving happiness is success. In the book, The Happiness Advantage by Shawn Achor, he debunks this theory of success leading to happiness by illustrating the reverse theory of success. Through dozens of studies and experiments as forms of evidence, the author argues that an individual needs to achieve happiness in order to be truly successful. Achor 's argument is valid in that happiness should come before success because there is a clear advantage to being successful in an individual’s work life, personal sphere, and liveliness if they are happy first and foremost.

Evaluate the economic and political impact of big business on the United States in the period from 1870 to 1900.
This course is about experiencing your present,past and future, discovering your signature strengths and then using them often in all areas of your life that you value. The reward for having good character and personal values is happiness. Happiness is a inner state, and we each have the power to access and sustain deep lasting contentment within us. Most of us are taught to believe that happiness comes from the outside, the object, or the experience we take pleasure in. True happiness is deeper than one true thing we may desire. Money cannot create a permanent state of happiness but it can definitely create temporary excitement. If we release the need to look for outside objects to make us happy, we realize happiness is a choice and we all have the choice to be happy and truly feel it. Happiness can come from
