It has been one heck of a Ride
Reading through my blog posts from this past semester was probably the best things I’ve done all we as each blog post brought back memories from that specific week. To be honest when I first started this course I was very hesitant that I would learn anything from this class. When I first saw this class I surprised by the blog post format as I thought by posting my venture idea online for the whole class to see would not only be pointless but scary as I was worried my idea would be ridiculed by my classmates. Once ball got rolling and the more I experienced in this class the more I was willing to open up in my blog post as well as appreciate the idea presented in my classmates. From there I learned the true value of the class as it got us to present our ideas to an audience and review others ideas and I’ll admit I kinda began enjoy making a blog post every one and a then because even though I wasn’t talking about week when I read back on my blog post I remember that whole we and how I felt like a dairy post but without the daily routine. I remember the first assignment as it asked what entrepreneurial experience have we had in the past and I felt awkward not having a definitive answer, but once I started reading the other blog post I began to realize most of everyone didn’t have a definitive answer as well. But the assignment that made me truly appreciate the entrepreneurial experience was the Elevator pitches as they started out really awkward but the more comfortable I got to be in front of a camera the more fun they became and it was great watching everyone experience this grow from it as well. One asked what is best thing I’ve learned from the class and what I would pass on is the idea is that when pursuing a goal don’t keep your sights narrow but view the open seas. Look at everything in your path and think to yourself why you want to pursue this goal and the motivation to do your tasks will come. Don’t view your assignments as chores but steps in your path onto the next your next goal. Once you appreciate the steps you'll appreciate the journey.

I really liked the picture at the bottom with the quote. Too often people are told simply how to do things instead of provided the opportunity or encouraged to fall in love with the process or understand why they are doing what they are doing. I think this is huge in developing long-term commitment and sense of purpose with things. Again, good luck my man.
ReplyDeleteHey Dervens,
ReplyDeleteYour experience in the class is really identifiable with mine. I was also hesitant on how the course would progress and once we were instructed to focus on a single venture I feel it really challenged all of us. As Chase states above, the exercises presented in the class not only formed our entrepreneurial mindsets but also demanded long-term commitments to a single idea, something which I don't usually follow through with. Great post!
