Week 15- Final Reflection

Final Reflection

- My most formative experience this semester was the "What's Next" Interview's. At this point in the semester I was comfortable giving interviews and I loved letting the people just talk. In the previous interviews I was very directive and leading, in this one I was not.  I loved just listening to the people talk. They gave me great advice. I was proud I was able to adapt so well with what they said. It was definitely the most rewarding experience in this class.

- I feel much more like an entrepreneur as the semester finishes  than I did in the beginning. At the beginning of the semester I was very nervous to approach anyone or ask questions. Now I wouldn't think twice. I have become more comfortable asking questions and receiving advice than I ever have before. Am I 100% ready to open a business? Maybe not, but I'm much closer than I was before.

- The best advice I can give to incoming freshman is to keep an open mind. When you first see the assignments it can be overwhelming. The assignments will seem weird. You will think that they are silly busy work assignments. In reality, all the of the assignments will help you in one way or another. If you keep your mind open, you will get everything you can out of every assignment. Just make sure when you start looking at everything, you expect nothing and just be ready for everything!

  1. Hello Courtney, Thank you for sharing your thought about this class on your blog. I agree with you that interviewing strangers challenged me a lot to step out of my comfort zone. I also think that my interview style became to change after the number of the interviews I have done. I felt less nervous to talk with them so that the interview became more natural.
    Great work so far!
