Entrepreneur Final Reflection


Before I begin I would like to say that I believe that this class has provided tools, experiences, and information that should provide almost anyone with the necessary understanding to consider an entrepreneurial activity. Perhaps enabling someone to experience a bright new experience and crossing new bridges that they may never have thought that they would ever cross.
Probably the high points during the semester were the reading reflections. I found the readings interesting and they did not involve going out and talking to people. The lows were the assignments that I was unable to accomplish and the ones that did not get submitted correctly. The moments of fun was the interview with the entrepreneur. I wasn't sure wht the answers would be, however, I thought that the interviews went well. The moments of drudgery was doing the elevator pitches. And, the moments of dread was when we had to go out and find people to interview.
The most formative experience is going to be to put all of the experiences from this class to produce an entrepreneurial experience. The experience that I will remember through the years will be developing an elevator pith to use when needed. M most joyous experience was completing assignments properly. The experience that I most proud of accomplishing is successfully completing this class and the valuable knowledge and experience that I will take from it.
I do see myself as an entrepreneur. This class has definitely helped me to improve my entrepreneurial mindset.
For students who are going to journey down this path in the future I would recommend to keep an open mind and to use failures as a learning experience. Don't give up. In order to perform your best in this course be up to date on technology and take on the challenges that you are given. To foster the entrepreneurial mindset be willing to take risks and to accept and use failure to your benefit.

  1. Gregory,

    I too hated the assignments where we had to go out and talk to people. For the reading assignments, I would do them at the beginning of the week since they were the easiest (although they were due last) and sometimes I tended to procrastinate on the videos. I understand how you feel about the elevator pitches. Sometimes I felt that I was repeating myself so much that I just decided to change my ideas. Overall, I'm glad we're finally at the end! Good luck on your finals.
