The behaviors and competencies that I have developed to keep
up with weekly assignments and time management along with the necessity of
thinking through processes and meeting with a plethora of individuals to ensure
that my opportunity is as flushed out as possible. Another is taking criticism
and apply it to better my understanding of the course and how it can help my business
ideas now and in the future.
From the onset, my tenacity had to really develop because to
have dream of entrepreneurial success you need to keep pushing through thick
and thin. Much like what I learned from the Elon Musk is that no matter how
many people doubt you, you must preserve and continue for your dreams. For
myself, I felt like giving up with my opportunity when I found out that there
are many alternatives to caffeine that are ‘natural’ and ‘holistic’. Another time
when I felt like giving up was with seeing how many people would prefer to stay
with coffee or have no need for a holistic opportunity, because they do not
think it's attractive or would be tasty.
My three tips would be:
1.
Perseverance no matter what people say
2.
Dream big, you never know what people may need
3.
If you ask people for ideas make sure to thank them
when you hit it big
Hey Austin,
ReplyDeleteI liked your tip on dreaming big because as we have learned in this course is that entrepreneurs look for solutions to problems they see around them. This ties into the concept of unmet needs and individuals not knowing that they have an unmet need, so it is right to think outside the box as an entrepreneur. You might solve an issue no one knew they had.
All the best,
Luis
