I made it!!! There were so many weeks that I wish that I had put this course off for another semester. There were many things that I didn't agree with and assignments that took a lot out of me to complete.
In the videos and readings this week they were all focused on failing forward. When I think about these stories I think about MLB players. They spend their professional career only hitting 30% of the time. The other 70% of the time they fail to hit the ball. However, they are paid for this failure and have successful careers. Their failures show that there is always room for improvement and that they can't give up. This is essentially what Michael Jordan said in his clip.
My grandfather used to remind us that there is a lesson in every opposition and it is up to us to determine what the lesson is and what we are going to do about it. He would often quote D&C 122:7 "...know thou, my son, that all these things shall give thee experience, and shall be for they good".
$100 Project
So glad to be done with this project. I ended the project with $125 to donate to Grameen America. I actually didn't mind doing my power point presentation even though I recorded the presentation 6 or 7 times. While I still don't intend to enter the entrepreneurship field I am more open-mined about how entrepreneurial and interpreneurial ideas can improve our leaning process and help businesses.
