There are many who we can be grateful for and to. As I have gone through this week’s lesson, I
have thought about this semester and what people did for me so that I could
succeed at being a good student. I don’t think I have thanked these people for
their actions in my behalf. My family has been the biggest supporter in my
schooling. They have stepped up in cleaning, cooking, running kids to
activities, all so I could spend a little more time doing homework. I don’t think I have thanked them enough.
From the support I have received so far from my family, I
know they will continue to support me as I graduate and start working in my
chosen career. But for this to happen, I
need to be grateful all along the way.
In Recognizing and Shaping Opportunities, it gives three
lessons to learn if you are wanting to become an entrepreneur. It suggests that
first you need personal, educational, and professional experience and networks.
Second, recognize that having an idea is just the first step; you then need to
shape it into a viable business opportunity. And third, narrow your focus to
find a market entry point that can be tested, refined, and then used as a
platform for developing the business to its full potential. (Lynda M. Applegate
and Carole Carlson, “Recognizing and Shaping Opportunities”, Harvard Business
Publishing, September 2014)
As I follow these steps outlined here, if I choose to become
an entrepreneur won’t necessarily be easy, but I will be on the right path.
Learning from others is one of the best ways to be successful.
