My overall perspective on the entrepreneurship experience is that a dream can become a reality with a lot of hard work and critical thinking. A dream can not become a reality overnight. You must build a plan and learn ways to execute it properly for it to be successful. From learning the right business model to executing the right pitch, entrepreneurship has prepared me to take my dreams and bring them to reality. The learning process and the work in between are just a steppingstone to achieving my goals. It has also prepared me on what to expect in the booming industries of entrepreneurs. It is a competitive world, so I always must be always ready to bring my “A” game.
In my experience, I have learned so much in such a little time. But that does not mean I would have to stop as soon as the course is over. An entrepreneur is always learning and always improving to get further in this industry. For me, my next move would be to take what I have learned and apply it to reality. Entrepreneurship is about opportunities, so this is my opportunity to make my dream of owning a business a reality. It is an opportunity to enhance my business model, to overcome my fear of public speaking, and produce a product worthy of being recognized and used by many.
