1) Read through your blog from this semester. Recall all of the experiences you've had a long the way -- the highs, the lows -- the fun moments, and the moments of drudgery, and even the moments of dread.
I read through my blog and recalled some of the experiences I've had along the way. There were some fun moments and some not so fun moments.
2) What sticks out to you as the most formative experience? The experience that you'll remember years later? What was your most joyous experience? What experience are you most proud of yourself for accomplishing?
The most formative experience for me would just be the general time commitment and determination required to complete the assignments. The experience I will remember years later would probably be the "Free Money" assignment just because of how unique it is. It really stands out from the other assignments I've had to complete, not just in this class but in any of my classes.
3) At the beginning of the semester, I mentioned that I wanted each of you to develop an entrepreneurial mindset. And we repeated the mantra -- I am an entrepreneur. Now, at the end, do you see yourself as an entrepreneur? Do you think you have moved closer to developing an entrepreneurial mindset?
Yes I see myself as an entrepreneur, but I also saw myself as an entrepreneur before this class. Before this class started I was already working on my own venture.
4) What is the one recommendation you would make to the students who are going to journey down this path in the future? What would you recommend they do to perform best in this course? What would you recommend they do to foster that mindset?
Stay committed and determined. Make sure you check the assignments everyday so that you don't fall behind because it can be overwhelming at times.
Hey Parker, I agree that this class had its ups and downs. Sometimes I had a lot of fun with what I was doing and other times I absolutely dreaded starting an assignment. I definitely think that staying determined and committed is useful, not just for this class, but for life in general. Being able to see things through and finding the will to never give up even when things get tough is important for success in anything.

Hi Parker, great job on your blog post! I really enjoyed reading your final reflection; it's been so interesting to learn about other students's thoughts and experiences in this class. I also wrote about the Free Money assignment as the one I will remember most for years to come; it was so unique and out of my comfort zone, but I think I actually learned a lot from being forced into the experience. I also agree that in order to be successful in the class you have to stay on top of the countless assignments. Thanks for sharing!

Parker, congratulations on finishing the class. I too liked the free money assignment. I thought it was very peculiar that we were going around giving people free money. As for the time commitment and determination required, I too think that it was very important to stay focused and try not to forget about any due assignments.
