- This class has definitely been an experience which I will remember, for several reasons.
- The most formative experience for me was the first set of interviews which I conducted. That assignment made me realize that this was a class that heavily valued hands-on/field experiences over simple written assignments. I will most remember the first elevator pitch because although I have done elevator pitches before, this made me take them more seriously and know exactly what the purpose of an elevator pitch is within the context of your goals. I am extremely proud of myself for completely the venture concept assignment. When I first looked at it the week before it was due it seemed so daunting and almost impossible. But I was able to get started on it early and eventually completed it before the deadline.
- I do not yet see myself as an entrepreneur but I have definitely moved closer to having an entrepreneurial mindset. I need to first get my business or any other business idea up and running before I start to consider myself as an actual entrepreneur. I also need to continue identifying problems and think of possible solutions to those problems, in order to continue to foster my entrepreneurial mindset.
- For any student who will possibly take this class and/or go through the entrepreneur path, I would recommend they read my half-way reflection. It's short but very descriptive, and I really tried to think of the best possible and most useful advice based on my experiences in this course. Preparation is honestly the best method to succeed in this class. The difficulty and time required for the assignments varies greatly so adequate preparation is needed for every week. In order to develop that mindset, I recommend that the students get a calendar or at least persevere in whatever they do. A quitters attitude is not conducive to success in this class or in the real-world.
