Speaker A
I see entrepreneurship as a foundation for actually turning an idea into something real. And I would like to learn more about what it takes to actually do that successfully.
Speaker A
One trait I think would help me as an entrepreneur is being able to adapt differently to the different roles.
Speaker A
Depending on what's needed, really. In my past job at Dunkin' Donuts, I was usually doing a little bit of everything.
Speaker A
If something needed to be done, I would just step in and help, even if it wasn't something I normally did.
Speaker A
One thing I think I would struggle with was prioritizing what actually needs to get done first.
Speaker A
Or I think it was like called like pri- moving the needle, something in moving the needle.
Speaker A
I can get distracted pretty easily if something comes up or if I think of something that needs to get done. For example, like when I was working at, I was at once again, I once needed to go get more eggs. On the way there, I realized the area was kind of messy. I was like, people going, like some people are probably chips. I started cleaning it up and I realized I got sidetracked and I didn't even remember to take—I was supposed to get the eggs.
Speaker A
I think it's something I need to improve on as an entrepreneur because staying focused on a task is what matters most. It's not, that's not really entrepreneurship related, but like I think it ties into entrepreneurship itself. But to me, entrepreneurship means taking risks for better opportunities. Starting a business comes with a lot of uncertainty, but if you're taking that risk because you believe there could be better opportunities on the other side. The business side is obviously, I mean, important.
Speaker A
But that's what entrepreneurship means to me personally: the willingness to take that risk and see where it leads. Thank you.
