Week 1 Journal Entry

As I have read through the material for this week, I have gained greater insight and wisdom regarding entrepreneurship, and I hope to be able to apply as many of those teachings as possible in my future as an entrepreneur. I am extremely excited and anxious for this class because this will be my first glimpse of what entrepreneurship really is and if this is the path that I want to follow; i will be helpful given that entrepreneurship is currently my emphasis to go along with my major in business management.

I enjoyed all of the readings, but my favorite has to be "Living Life as an Entrepreneurial Hero". I love how Jeff Sandefer shows the importance of pursuing your passions and becoming successful off of that passion. It just really hit home for me because that has always been my mindset; to go into a career that I love and will enjoy doing for the remainder of my life. I think that loving your occupation is also important for others around you and especially for future generations. People will look to your example and admire the determination to find success in something that you love. I really look forward to continuing in this course!
