W06 Reflection: Entrepreneurial Journal

 

W06 Reflection: Entrepreneurial Journal


This week really helped me understand what it means to be an entrepreneur not just in theory, but in real life. One of the biggest takeaways for me was that entrepreneurship isn’t all about money or success. It’s about solving real problems, staying true to your values, and being willing to grow and change. That idea stuck with me because sometimes it’s easy to get caught up in the dream of success without thinking about the work it takes to get there.

The part about self-mastery really made me think. If I can’t manage my time, control my emotions, or stay focused, how can I expect to run a business or lead others? I’ve definitely struggled with procrastination and distractions, so this was a good reminder that becoming an entrepreneur means working on myself first.

I also liked the video about The Entrepreneur and the Family. It reminded me that success doesn’t mean much if it comes at the expense of your family or faith. That really hit home for me because I want to build something meaningful but not if it means losing sight of the people and values that matter most.

The Three Lessons video also stood out. It talked about being resourceful, resilient, and mission-driven. That’s the kind of entrepreneur I want to be. I know I have a lot to learn, but this week gave me more clarity about what I’m aiming for and what kind of person I need to become.

All in all, this week helped me shift my mindset. I’m not just learning how to start a business I’m learning how to grow into someone who can lead with purpose and integrity.

This week helped me see that with hard work, faith, and a clear purpose, I can achieve more than I thought possible.

  W03 Reflection: Entrepreneurial Journal This week I started by taking a quiz about the material that I've been learning about for the past couple of weeks. They included a couple of lectures on how to start your own business and how to be a successful entrepreneur. This might sound funny to say but I realized that staying honest in the business world is harder than it sounds and way more important than I thought. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was how doing the right thing can sometimes cost you something in the short term, but in the long run, it builds real trust. That’s what really stuck with me from the Magdalena Yesil case. She didn’t just talk about ethics she actually lived it out in tough situations. I admire how she made decisions based on her values, not just what would make her the most money the fastest. Another part of this week that I found meaningful was writing the “I will never” and “I will always” statements. It was more challengin...
