- At the halfway point in this class is almost over I have changed my behavior a lot. I am more outgoing and invested into the class than in the beginning. At first I didn't see how the exercises helped develop my entrepreneur skill but now I use them outside of the class. Also, when commenting on other student's blog post I now try to take the time and give them good feedback because their ideas also help my own.
- I find the exercises not to hard so there wasn't a time where I wanted to give up but there were definitely times were I was too lazy to do an exercise and I had to find the motivation to go interview customers on a Sunday morning. I try to work ahead in this class but I find it best to stay on track and do at least one exercise every day or two.
Three tips
- Make sure that the exercises are done in a timely manner. It sucks to do these exercises last minute and cram your time because they are due at 9PM!
- Take the exercises seriously and do what they ask you to do. But, try to have a good time doing them because they can be fun at the same time.
- Apply what we learn in class to your everyday life or just simple thoughts.
I too have had a few projects I was turning in at the last minute, which is really rough because I am in a different time zone! Personally, I had a hard time making myself come out of my shell and interview strangers versus lacking motivation at all. I think your insights are excellent, as is your advice to future students.

ReplyDeleteHi Peter! Great to hear that you have been implementing what we learn in this class in your life. I have also been doing the same. Definitely agree that things need to be done in a timely manner. I've also experienced those days when I'm trying to get an assignment done last minute on Sunday. Here's mine http://lfrancie.blogspot.com/2016/02/half-way-reflection.html
