Reading Reflection No. 3

1) What was the general theme or argument of the book?
- The general theme of this book was to explain how quick we as humans are to assume something before we actually look at the big picture or thinking through the process carefully. 
2) How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003?
- This book made me start to think about things slower and like I said above, look at the whole picture and not just a certain spot. It allowed me to think about things with more detail and understand certain things better. 
3) If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would that exercise involve?
- Having an exercise where students look at a problem, equation, idea, etc. and analyze it. Look at the situation for 5 minutes and here the thoughts of all the students and see how similar and different the responses are. 
4) What was your biggest surprise or 'aha' moment when reading the book? In other words, what did you learn that differed most from your expectations?
- The fact that the author uses nearly 500 pages to list examples of how we can learn things on our own with different learning styles and perspectives.

Final Reflection

I think what I will remember most was my bug list. This was something that was somewhat difficult for me to think of and after reading over it, these things still bug me. Years later i can look back on this and I would like to see if the same things are still bothering me or if i have grown to ignore them. I am proud of myself for accomplishing an elevator pitch and trying to self s product with my own ideas. I do not exactly see myself as an entrepreneur at least comfortable calling myself one because I found some of the assignments difficult and i struggled coming up with certain ideas. I do believe I have moved a little closer to that mindset but I still have a ways to go. For future students in this class, I would recommend staying on top of your school work. Complete the assignments because you will learn from the experiences and you will become more comfortable around people and speaking to your peers.
