13A – Reading Reflection No. 1

13A – Reading Reflection No. 1

1.

  •  I did not understand that one of the most richest people in the world was something at the beginning of his life, very different from an entrepreneur. The guy who created Mcdonalds was a pianist at first then he became the creator of Mcdonalds. 
  • I understood where Kroc was coming from, but I did admire how he put his dedication to his business first. He pushed everything to the side, and he ensured his business would grow. This then created a cain reaction that all his other entities, like relationships, would go down hill
  • I did not like how he pushed everyone aside. He went on it alone and dealt with everyone like business. He didn't grow any of his relationships. He kept everything business. This made hi too formal, as if he was a robot. 
  • His first two stores of Mcdonalds did not go well. He had troubles making them live long. For them to operate it took him a lot of money. He was living paycheck to paycheck. It turned out to be a bad investment. 
2. He was a great salesman. he was able to build relationships through his work. He made business friends, that he was honorable with. This helped with his business growth, in a way that no one else can do. 

3. The author wrote in a way that was too casual for me. I did not understand this because I thought it what going to be business formal but it was very casual. It made me feel, I was talking to an informal friend. 

4. I would ask him, what was your drive t make this need? Then, Who do you go to first to start an idea? I would ask these so I can replicate it and because even more successful than him. 

5. He was very successful, so hard work to him is an everyday lifestyle. He did what needed to be done to reach his goals.

26A – Celebrating Failure

26A – Celebrating Failure 1.  Tell us about a time this past semester that you failed -- whether in this class, or outside of this class. Don't spare any details! It'd be even better if there was something you tried several times this semester, and failed each time. A time I failed was when I took my first accounting exam. It was very hard and I was not prepared for it. I thought I was prepared but I was wrong. 2.  Tell us what you learned from it.    I learned that I was not prepared. I needed to be prepared for my next one. I got study people and they taught me how to get ready for the exam. It was very difficult and I did well. 3.  3) Reflect, in general, on what you think about failure. Failure is hard, isn't it? It's embarrassing, sure, but it also means that we have to change something about ourselves. Talk about how you handle failure (emotionally, behaviorally). Finally, talk about how this class has changed your perspective on failure -- ...

24A – Venture Concept No. 1

24A – Venture Concept No. 1 My parking app 1. The opportunity that I took advantage of is the problem with finding parking in laces that have a high demand in parking. These are places that have a lot of traffic of vehicles coming in and out of an area. Some of the forces that helped me come up with this idea is that I go to a school that has little to no parking. This is a great app that I came up with because it will help identify parking spots and it will save time. It is something that people hate and get irritated about. The main target at the moment for me are college campuses. This is essential because it helps people who go to the college and people who are just visiting. This also goes along with workers as well, along with students. I really liked to add the aspect of football game-days. This will really help. This solves the problem of spending a lot fo timing finding a place to park. This is something that is serious and annoying to people. 2.  The innovat...

2A – Bug List

2A – Bug List I hate going to the gym and the gym is dirty, as in the weights are not re racked. Some people are just very lazy and think that someone else will do it for them. Going to cook a meal and the dishes that I need to use are dirty in the sink.  I usually use some dishes that I can use for dinner for lunch. When dinner comes along I have to do the dishes before I can cook and this hinders me.  My roommate does not do his dishes He is lazy ans cooks very little compared to me, he claims he will do it later but later is way too long for me and I need the sink space.  Streaming the soccer game and getting it in another language. Some soccer games are in another country and English is not always provided.  Going to scoot and the scooter won't turn on, I have to kick start it.  When is sits at an angle the scoot's gas rumples around. This makes me have to kick start it to move the gas into the right place.  Having to have to d...
