As I did not do the previous speech I have nothing in what to reflect back on.

Book: "Mindset: The New Psychology of Success" Author: Carol Dweck 1) The theme of the book? The book talks about a lot of subjects but mainly the book conveys the idea that when people do something the results can come with different results which can be good or bad, that all depends on how we examine the different skills that lead to success. She mentions a lot of examples of success and failure throughout the book. 2) Connecting it to ENT3003? The book mentions topics discussed in class, as of in the class we learn from our mistakes and in the book she argues of picking up this errors and fix them to better the future outcome. We must always pursue to correct any flaws we have previously made in order to get a more perfect scenario in the future. The other thing that I picked up and also Dr. Pryor emphasizes is how we need to seek flaws in our system or world in order to create a better world, seize the opportunity we see in other words. 3) Exercise for the cl...

I s kipped the last couple of assignments so I was not able to gather new information about myself. 1) Me: I have not changed I'm still the same: Mario Paredes was born in Chile in 1995. After moving to the US at age 12, from Chile he has grown a lot and learned a lot. He lived one year in Germany, where he learned the German language. He now speaks fluently three languages: Spanish, English, and German. Other than that, his skills are pretty much the same as an average University of Florida student. He is very good at finding good deals and purchasing good at a low price. He has had the opportunity to travel a lot on his own, where it has to lead him to grow a lot as a person, throughout different experiences abroad. He does not enjoy being in his comfort zone as he feels sometimes that drags him down so he needs to be constantly looking for new upcoming challenges. By having traveled so much, and speaking different languages he has been able to detect flaws in international tr...

For this assignment I decided to interview 3 students at the University of Florida, all 3 share common things, for example, all 3 students have studied abroad during their tenure at UF. All of them enjoy traveling and would consider themselves avid travelers and some of the backpackers. With the difference of my previous interviews now this time I chose 3 American students that may or may have no interest in traveling to South and Central America. From the first interview, I interviewed an American girl who studied abroad in Australia! She told us many ways she booked her travels while studying abroad and also provided with some great tips on how to find cheap tickets to Australia and New Zealand from the United States. For her, she values two things the price of the air ticket, and the location expenses. For example she said you can travel cheaply to the Cayman Islands, but once on the islands, it becomes very expensive to be there; lodging, eating, shopping, and extracurri...

1) Definitely get an early start in projects, see them at the beginning of the week and plan out how long the blog posts will take. Also by having read th directions and guidelines, you will be able to come up with ideas before you write the post. Also pay attention to Dr. Pryor's video announcements as they help you narrow down your thought process when writing the blog posts. 2) The last post I wrote was definitely a tough one, hahving to read a book made me almost want to quit, but in reality I really need a good grade in this class because my GPA suffered "damages" in the last semester so I do not want to lower it, I want o raise it back up. Just do the posts, take your time, and enjoy the ride it helps you think anatically and analyze multiple situations with more entreprenurial eyes. Having to do so many interviews has definitely helped too see that it is good to get new point of views when approaching a new project. 3) 1- Attend the workshop for the extra cred...

Book Ray Kroc's "Grinding it out: The making of McDonald's" What surprised you the most? What caught my eye at first is how Ray was able to take one restaurant, to a worldwide scale known almost anywhere in the wall. And just by simply offering burger and fries. I also was surprised all the steps he took in order to turn McDonalds into a sensation in the states, and now having arguably the best food chain in the world. What about the entrepreneur did you most admire? I admire the most of Ray his persistence and drive in order to turn a succesful restaurant locally to a nationwide level. His determination was most definitely what I admired the most. Also i admired how when he ran into obstacles such as bumps in building a new restaurant in ceratin parts of the country, he always took "no's" and worked on them to make them into yes, so that stood out a lot. What about the entrepreneur did you  least  admire? R Ray got there with a lot of to...
