Final Reflection

1. This semester has been something. Looking back on my many blog post, I would have to say now, the high and fun moments had to be interviewing customers.  At the moment, I dd not really get the satisfaction I am getting now from this assignment.  I think that happens with a lot of things in life.  But looking back on it, the experience I got, and even some of the reactions I got in interviews are great memories and will enhance my experience going forward.  I am much more confident now interviewing people. I would say another high is definitely interviewing the entrepreneur at the end of the semester.  At the beginning, I was like a young, unacknowledged student who didn't know much.  I asked broad questions and did not gain much from the interview.  But by the end of the semester in the last interview with the entrepreneur, I had experienced a lot of what entrepreneurs experience. I had targeted customers, pitched my idea, and planned for the future.  This knowledge showed in my last interview, and I think it was really cool. However, there were some dull moments to look back on.  I missed quite a bit of assignments.  some that I wish I would've done for the experience, but at the same times,  had many other school obligations that needed to be done first.

2. This one is easy, Like I said before, Interviewing customers was an experience Iwill never forget and will use that experience later on in life.  I learned as the semester went on, that people arent as scay as you would think.  Just confidently approach them and present yourself in a professional way, and ask the questions you want to ask to get the information needed to succeed.

3. I think we all moved forward in an entrepreneur mindset.  The assignments given forced us to. From finding what opportunities there are, choosing one that you can relate to, pitching it to investors, interviewing customers, perfecting and finalizing the product/service, and planning for the future all combined to create an entrepreneur mindset for us all.

4 I would advise students in the future to not think of this as a class.  Do not think of it as assignments you have to do, and I have to do this for a grade.  Grades are important and definitely get the A in the class, however, looking back on this class, I do wish I would taken in some of the experience and had fun with it more.  That is what I would advise future students.  The experience in this class is like no other class you will take.  The assignments are sometimes fun and sometimes dull but both types give you some kind of taste of what entrepreneurs go into.  Embrace that experience and have fun.
