3A – Your Entrepreneurship Story

My mom has always been looking for new opportunities to do business. She isn't happy if she isn't busy. That's not to say that she isn't a caring mother who took the time to raise her kids, but when she wasn't nurturing us, she was doing something. Over the years, she's cooked, sold kitchen tools, been a travel agent, helped manage a spa, been a marketing agent, and designed and printed custom t-shirts. These are just some of the things she's done, off the top of my head. Since I was young, I saw the determination, drive, and tenacity that made my mom successful time and again, and I wanted to copy that, in some way.

I mostly enrolled in ENT3003 for the credit, because I need business credits to fulfill my non-business degree, and I heard good things about Professor Pryor. But after syllabus week, I actually became excited to be in this class. It made me realize that I actually had a few business ideas bouncing around inside my head. Nothing too crazy or different, just some things that I'm passionate about, and I think others could be too. I've made some fake commercials in the past for silly products, and I think I can apply that humorous talent to making something real.

  1. I think its awesome that you've got such a great role model to look up to. Being an entrepreneur takes a lot of energy and dedication and I'm sure your mother displays that all the time. I hope you get a lot out of your experience with the course because I think that improving your entrepreneurial side can benefit all aspects of your life.

  2. This was great because of the truthfulness that was written. Sometimes classes can surprise you and it;s nice to see another person be surprised with this class like I was. Also the picture was hilarious, I think you have a good mindset and a great example to follow.
