Reading Reflection Week 15

1) I was surprised how the author expained that the bottom of a pyramid sector could be just as profitable as the top. That just proves how the right management can make anyting a success.
2) Nothing in the reading was paritucularly confusing.
3) I would ask the author if i could only take away one thing from this book what would be the most important? also how do you define success as an entrepreneur?
4) I did disagree with the author on any of the reading.

Final Reflection

1) I think what stood out to me the most and will continue to stay with me is my venture concept post. That was definitely a high moment for me because it took my idea from a simple thought into an officialish looking printed document. It surprised me how good my idea actually was and how much good it could actually do for the environment. Overall I am very proud of my project and I think that i have grown up as a person through it. It has forced me to look into the future and find the bigger picture in things. I have the ability now to predict what I will like to do for my life rather than take it a ay at a time, always innovating and bettering my concepts.
2) I definitely believe I have moved forward as an entrepreneur. I can really see myself pursuing this business concept and potentially making it happen. If it does then it will do alot of good and that was my goal to start with.
3) One reccomendation i would give is to take this class seriously. It leads to some very cool experiences and proud moments when you realize just how creative and smart you can be!

Week 14 Reading Reflection

1) I was a little taken back by the corporate entrepreneurship model. It was a lot to take in because it was very complex.
2) I was a little confused by the concept of nepotism and how it would be beneficial to practice it. I am aware that insome situations it would work but maybe not in most.
3) I would ask the author if nepetism is even legal. For me it is ethically wrong but i dont understand if it is legally wrong.
4) I did not disagree with the author on anything.

Google Gold


1) My approach to SEO was simple ... I didn't. Because i didnt hve to Bitcheeeeeezzzzzzzzz! My blog is so good that I didnt even have to try because I am such a naturally funny and charismatic individual, and I translate all of my lovable characteristics into my blog. This translates to tons of people hittin up dizzzz blog cuz its so dank with da meemz, Spittin fire i be gettin so cold. #buymymixtape its FIRE!!!!!!  Buy My Mixtape!

2) My key words and phrases were: Sustainability, Saving Paper, Oil, Receipts, Environment, Climate Change, Dank Memes, Fire, Mixtape, Uber, Swiggity Swooty Comin for That Booty, Donald Trump #MakeDatDrumpf, #Kanye, #wastehistime2016, Wheres Waldo?, Hittin that KK, Jamie Vardy is Having a Party, Panda Panda Panda got Broads in Atlanta, #HalaMadrid, , Runescape, Too Dank, #Turnt, Slidin in Those DMzzzzz, Orange Juice, and Popeye's Fried Chicken.

3) My huge Twitter and IG following was not rady for the shade that was going to hit them if they read this blog so I chose not to advertise on any of these social media outlets. I wanted to see if this blog was able to work with this class first and then migrate out to all the people who enjoy fire tweets ... Follow me @nahelnas on twitter for some dank tweets.

4) My most followed post was about my biggest failure. I think this is because I serve as such an inspiration to the little people that it came as a surprise to them that I failed at something. They now understand that I am also a human being.... Just an awesome one. Also that post was so absolutely dope money crazy that everyone was all bout reading that ISSSHHH

5) Fo SHOOOO I made it on that first G

Week 13 reading reflection

1) what surprised me or rather intrigued me is the emotional aspect of running a business. A lot of the time it's all numbers and figures about the success or failure of business projects and ventures. For an entrepreneur to dedicate his time money and energy into something will really take an emotional toll on that person regardless of success or failure. Beginning a business is a labor of love for the product that a person believes in and rarely are those things covered.
2) there wasn't anything about the reading that I found confusing.
3) I would like to ask the author about the emotional progress of his company and how he evolved as a person throughout his business process.
4) I did not disagree with the author on anything.

Celebrating Failure

Rarely before this semester have I worked so hard for something and then proceeded to fail at it ..... over and over and over. At the beginning of this semester I set a goal for myself that I would have a sixpack by summer. Come to think of it I may have been a little way in over my head as I was 75 pounds over weight. However I still set out to complete my goal! I knew to achieve this I would need to give up the 3 am trips to Taco Bell for Doritos Locos Tacos and Baja Blast Mountain Dew. I also knew that my diet would have to consist of significantly less bacon and infinitely more vegetables and lo carb foods. I initially jumped into progress for the first month of the semester I ate clean and ran every day, granted running meant more walking and alot of shuffling. But then disaster!! Taco Bell came out with the Quesolupa and I just had to go try it! Sure enough 3am hit and my ability to resist failed me and I made my slightly less fat self over to T-Bell for some delicious cheese stuffed (kind of) mexican magic. It was life changing! I couldnt resist going back for more, and so I did ... every day for the next week and a half. All the progress I had made was gone. I was heart broken but determined to remedy my wrongs. And so I set forth toward my original goal. But once again I was thwarted! Chipotle offered a free meal! The worst possible occurence, how could I possibly justify not getting an excessive amount of food ad Chipotle when it was absolutely free?!?!?! Nay, I said. I must fulfull my destiny and get the largest possible single free meal in Chipotle history! And so I did, triple steak double guac with chips AND MORE GUAC!! All in one sitting mind you. And so I dove into a dark spiral of guilt. My sadness let to more eating and my eating led to more sadness which in turn led to more eating (Please note that this has nothing to do with clinical depresssion I am actually a very happy person and incredibly content with my life regardless of my weight!). All this to say that it is currently April 10 and the semester ends in roughly a little over 2 weeks and I currently weight five pounds more than I did at the beginning of the semester. It is looking like my six pack goal for the end of the semester might be out of reach, however there is always next year! #BEACHBODSUMMER2017 here I come baby!!! And Taco Bell and Chipotle, and the rest of the delicious food of the world, YOU CANT STOP ME THIS TIME BABY! IM GONNA BE EFFIN SEX-C!!

My Exit Strategy

1) As the sheer nature of my business requires a very large scale project in order for it to succeed, i believe it would take me a long time to grow the business. Because of this i believe that it will take me longer than five years, and in that amount of time i would like to hold onto my business. My company will be centered arount savving the earth by eliminating paper waste, and i believe that if it is bought out by a larger multinational corporation then it will lose its integrity and become only something to make these companies profit. For that reason I want to stick with my business until retirement, and then hand it off to a suitable heir.
2) I have selected this stratagy for the reasons I stated above. I believe that I can best continue to carry out the vision and mission of this company, rather than have it run by people who only want to turn a profit from it.
3) This exit stratagy influences me thusly, I can now implement my vision for what i would like the company to be in the future. All of my next steps that I have planned out throughout this course can be implemented and the company can grow as a green corporation.
