 Reflection Week 13 Carrie Walsman  This time in my has never been more full of opportunities, and I'm trying to figure out what path to take.  I really liked this week in the PDF file we read which was the framework for identifying and exploiting opportunities.  In the file it says "The questions associated with the criteria are in a yes/no format. But in fact, there are four possible answers to each question. A “no” is a clear red light. For a clear green light, the entrepreneur should be able to give a “yes,” or, if the economics of the opportunity are reasonably predictable, a qualified “yes.” The potential of an assisted-living venture, for example, can be assessed by looking at such factors as demographics, income, existing competition, and applications for new licenses.

Represented joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and even faith. The grandson thought about the situation for a minute. He then asked his grandfather, “Which w...

Week 9 Reflection: What I learned this week - Carrie Walsman      This class always amazes me with the content we learn each week. Each week keeps getting better and better, and somehow ALWAYS perfectly aligns with my real life situation.       Touching more on a personal manner, since Hawaii and it changing my whole life's direction, it just changed again. The plan is looking like I will be moving back and forth between Hawaii and Utah, starting after May, to help with the business social media's. I'm really excited and I'm hoping the business can get to that point, I honestly think they need my help to get things lifted from off the ground because right now they are stuck.  Currently I just started a small business with my sister selling bracelets, I had the feeling that it's the right choice to make and to take the leap, so I ordered what we needed and so right now were making content for all of the socials which only 48 hours in has taken off ...
