Assignment 30A- Final Reflection

1. This class definitely provided me with a lot of moments throughout the semester. In terms of lows, I believe the beginning of finding out opportunities and writing up little summaries were tedious and almost a waste of time at first. But, as the class started continuing, I realized that there was a purpose and it was actually incredibly useful. The rest of the class after that got a lot better, and I have been enjoying it ever since.

2. For me, both my most formative and joyous experience revolves around the Elevator pitch. The first pitch was the most formative, it reminded me how bad of a public speaker I was and how I really needed to improve my skills. The 3rd was the most joyous because you could see that you are getting better in such a short time, that you feel more comfortable in front of the camera. I think the act of posting a video for everyone to see and critique was really beneficial in showing that it is not such a big deal after all.

3. I believe I have more of an entrepreneurial mindset, but I am not an entrepreneur yet. In order for me to become an entrepreneur I would need to start acting on the thoughts I have written out during this class. I think this class sets the perfect mind frame and plan for how to begin being an entrepreneur, but at the end, you have to do it yourself.

4. I would say my one recommendation is to actually act on the ideas you have presented in your blog. I believe actually doing something will make this class infinitely times more productive for yourself. That is what i would personally recommend.

  1. I agree with your initial assessment that included your beginning disdain for the class and inability to understand why this course was worth the time that I was putting in. However, when adapting my mindset to fit the surrounding of each assignment, I realized the value of the lessons taught through customer acquisition and finding a market that fits the product demand. In the end, I think we would both agree that this class has been an asset that can harness skills that will be of importance for future success.

  2. Nice recommendation. I know I do not plan to act on my idea because I have other side hustles going on, but I wish I could. We spent a lot of time in this class developing these ideas and came a long way. Most people who start businesses do not have classmates helping them, teachers reviewing their work and guidelines to follow to success. This class is a good way to get your idea formulated and create a plan so you can take to the real world and rave on.
