The most formative experience would be identifying local opportunities. By identifying these opportunities, it made me understand and realize the problems within my local community, and made me think of ways I could better these issues. The experience I will remember for years to come will be creating my idea. Creating my idea took a lot of thinking and hardwork, as coming up with a business venture is not an easy task. The experience I am most proud of myself is developing the underlying ocncepts and goals for my business venture within this class. By giving purpose and meaning to my idea, it was able to come to life when details were added.
I currently do not see myself as an entreprenuer, however I do see myself as an entreprenuer in the making. I do also think I have moved closer to develping an entreprenuerial mindset.I believe I have a lot more to learn, and this class has assisted me by introducing me to the tasks and things that go into creating a business. It is far greater than developing a name and getting a business license, but it must be planned out, strategized, fully developed, and more.
The one recommednation I would make to the students who are going to journey down this path in the future, is to take this class seriously, regardless if you see yourself owning your own business or not. This class will prepare you for the business world, business interactions, and will help you understand and respect the goals, time, and dedication of other business owners for this process is not an easy one. To perform best in this course, I suggest that they complete all of the assignments, and not allow themselves the given amount of time (a week) to efficiently and effectively complete these assignments. Take advantage of the extra credit opportunity, and fully read the expectations of this class in the syllabus. To foster this mindset, just simply understand that every college course is meant to assist and enhance your knowledge of the real world.

I love how you defined yourself as an entrepreneur still in the making as opposed to someone that has already attained the full status of being an entrepreneur in an official fashion in that I also believe just this one class won't necessarily transform us all into entrepreneurs in such a short period of time, through which we've gone over this past semester. Nonetheless, thank you so much for sharing your finals thoughts on this class that I'm sure we've all enjoyed thoroughly in a collective manner!
