Highlights-
- This reflection itself is a huge highlight of the course, as I have been able to look through all my posts and see the progression I have made and all the skills I have developed
- My short interview with the entrepreneur gave me tons of insight and an image of aspiration to look at for the future
Lowlights-
- Staying on top of myself to complete the work fell through sometimes and the incomplete I received were low points, however it has helped me mature academically and be more proactive
- The assignment "Free Money," even though I am very experienced and well versed in awkward situations this really tested my level of handling it, however not a low point as it made me better
2. This question can happily be summed up in one answer; the short interview with an entrepreneur. I will remember this interview for a long time to come and I truly feel it taught me most about what it means to be an entrepreneur. Seeing and interacting with a rising entrepreneur allowed me to really grasp what is necessary in my life in order to be successful and have this entrepreneurial mindset.
3. I definitely think I am much more of an entrepreneur than at the beginning of this course. My speech, idea generation, and general personality have become more oriented towards being an entrepreneur. I definitely think I have a long way to go before becoming an entrepreneur, however this class has given me huge strides towards becoming an entrepreneur.
4. Always keep an open mind and remember knowledge is power, and failure is the best teacher. Many times in this course I fell behind and was not able to complete some assignments, checking Canvas everyday and doing assignments in advance when free time arises is the best way to do well. The number one thing to foster the entrepreneurial mindset is to always move forward and learn from ones mistakes.
Hello Donovan,
ReplyDeleteI agree a lot with you 'Highlight' and 'Lowlights' sections. Granted, I never did the free money exercise, but when I had to ask people about my possible business, it learned a lot from it. I enjoyed being a lot more creative and to look at things differently because of this class too.

Hey Donovan,
ReplyDeleteI agree with your highlights and lowlights! I really enjoyed writing this final reflection and thinking back on all of the cool and challenging things we did! As far as lowlights go, I definitely agree that it was hard to keep ourselves on track with so many little assignments! I like what you said at the end: Knowledge is power, and failure is the best teacher. Those things are both so true and I think that we forget them sometimes in our quest to make things easy & accomplishable.
