Reading Reflection 3

 Failing at almost everything but still winning big

1.
The general theme of the book is the notion that no matter how much you fail, you can learn from those situations and still be successful.

2.
The book connected with what I am learning in ENT 3003 because building a business will not always be successful the first time around. The author tried to create over thirty different businesses until he finally found one that worked. The author never gave up, and as an entrepreneur you must do the same.

3.
I would create an exercise that allows the students fail five times before they are successful the sixth time. I will basically rig a game, and record the reactions to the students every time they lose. Then after they play the game for the sixth time, and finally win, I will record the reactions, and compare them to the first five reactions.

The thing that surprised me the most about the book was when the author stated "goals are for losers." If you want to know why he said this, you will have to read it for yourself! Over all, this was a great read, and I would recommend it to practically  anyone.
