Jane Lu Interview

that takes the risk in order to succeed. They are also the ones that boost and help the economy of a country. Last Friday, our teacher has invited guests to talk about being an entrepreneur. I learned many things and I was able to know how entrepreneur does things. The first speakers were Miss Archelle Ferrandiz and Arabelle Santamaria from Miriam College. They came up with a non-food business named Inabel that supports the dying industry of weaving. Sadly, Inabel was stopped because their other partners don’t have the same vision like they do. They stopped contributing ideas because they are not gaining money. According to Miss Archelle Ferrandiz, sometimes it is not only about gaining money it is also giving back to others. The way I think about on how business works were changed. Now, business for me is not all about money but being happy on what your business does to people around you.

If ever the business fails, we will able to know what went wrong and with that if we start a business again the chance of falling again is decreased because we have the advantage of knowing what could possibly went wrong. She also quoted a quote from Martin Luther King “IF YOU CAN’T FLY THEN RUN, IF YOU CAN’T RUN THEN WALK, IF YOU CAN’T WALK THEN CRAWL, BUT WHATEVER YOU DO YOU HAVE TO KEEP

According to Lucy’s interview, the initial diagnostic impression is that she is a young women experiencing depression. Originally, this is the impression because in the beginning of the film it says that she has been experiencing low mood and has been expressing depressive symptoms. These original thoughts were confirmed in the interview film.

Many fail to keep their business alive, however; others are lucky to compete and survive in the market.

Black business owners don’t need to be your favorite people, nor do they even need to be your friend. The other side doesn’t accept us or love us, but we will run to support “them” because we’re obsessed with acceptance. Who says their label/brand is fly? All so you can think you’re doing and looking better than the rest of the barrel? Entrepreneurs are no martyrs, we just know what we’re willing to put in to get to where we want to go and who we want to become. If you’ve ever had any semblance of a real conversation with me, you know a real question I ask is this, “If you could wake up tomorrow and be/do whatever you want to do, what would it be?” after you answer, I follow up with, “Why aren’t you doing that?” after that answer, I follow up with this, “With what you make at your job now, would you quit if your dream job or career paid you the same exact thing?” If you have to hesitate to answer yes to that question, leave being self-employed alone because your passion would have made you jump out the window for it.

The entrepreneur that I interviewed was Lydia Patterson. In 1989, Lydia and her husband, Lou, decided to start planning to open up a new Italian restaurant in Virginia.

Explain and critically analyze unique traits of an Entrepreneur, discuss these related to personal strengths and weaknesses

There has been extensive research conducted on the characteristics that successful entrepreneurs possess. These attributes vary widely across literature, however there are common key traits that are required to achieve any form of success. Frederick et al (2013) suggest entrepreneurs are risk takers, optimistic, have sound judgement and an ability to manage. While a review of literature relating to the psychology of an entrepreneur reveals a large variety of characteristics in a successful entrepreneur, these can be consolidated to a a few into only a few traits that are essential for a successful entrepreneur.

Taking this entrepreneur course has been the best thing I could do for myself. Not only did it grow my mindset, but it taught me how to focus and concentrate on meeting my goals. At the beginning of this semester I could not let go the negative self-image I had of myself. Since I have been able to reflect on who I am I am slowly able to let go of that past image. I now know that I am more than able to reach my goals with the proper mindset and skills. I have come a long way since the beginning of this course.
