Assignment 3A- My Entrepreneurship Story
I was first introduced to entrepreneurship in middle school where one of my teachers would play the show "Shark Tank" at the end of every class. I learned that the people who would come up to the sharks were entrepreneurs trying to start or extend their own and unique businesses. They were trying to get the sharks to invest money in their idea so they would be able to do the things in which they desire. This includes help with financial risks that come with starting a new business. While sitting there and watching this show almost everyday, I would always imagine myself as starting my own business and appearing on the show. I would actually spend some time sitting there trying to come up with a multitude of potential business ideas. One of my ideas involved a more efficient windshield wiper that would work in any weather scenario. Moreover, watching that show and creating some of my own ideas definitely assisted in my understanding of the concept of entrepreneurship.

Shark Tank is an excellent show. I feel as if that show is a window for to the public as to what it is to be both an investor and business consultant as well as an entrepreneur with a dream. I find that your idea for the improved windshield wiper relates to our Bug List assignment, was there something that bugged you about your traditional windshield wiper?
ReplyDeleteI have only watched “Shark Tank” a couple of times but was fascinated by the ideas that entrepreneurs came up with. When I watched this show, I thought that you could only be an entrepreneur if you came up with a crazy new invention and I was different to you in that I never saw myself as appearing on this show. Therefore, in this class I hope to broaden my knowledge as to what an entrepreneur does and how they accomplish these things. I would also be interested in hearing more about your windshield wiper idea!
ReplyDeleteHey Teddy!
ReplyDeleteI also wrote about Shark Tank for my Entrepreneurship Story and thought that this was super coincidental. How funny. The show is so interesting to me and it's really cool to see all these different start-ups. It's definitely made me think with a more economic mindset. I've definitely thought of some ideas to get myself onto the show. Also love the funny picture of Mark Cuban.
