I read the book Mindset: The New Psychology of Success by Carol Dweck 1) What was the general theme or argument of the book? The general theme of the book is about success is all portions of life. 2) How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? The book in my opinion definitely connects with what we are learning in this class. It talks a lot about what it takes to be successful and what successful people do. 3) If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would that exercise involve? That exercise would involve just spending time alone in your room with no social media around and just thinking about yourself and who you 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? I personally have read other self improvement books before and I really enjoy them as I find them real...

1) My name is Eric Friese, I am a swimmer, I can do a few pencil tricks, and I am really interested in fashion and sneakers.

I want this to help people with the parking on campus with my app. It is not necessarily a business but just a set of solutions available to help to avoid and solve the parking problems around campus. 2) I am offering an app that helps people to find parking spots and decal informations for the different parking lots.   3) All of my customers are college students at the University of Florida any college if I can expand the app one day. They want to park their car or their scooter on campus without getting a ticket for wrong parking or without spending a lot of time on searching a spot.   4) I would not receive any money from this, but I would receive the benefit of ...

1.  Elevator Pitch No. 2 2. I am really happy for my feedback. I had only positive comments. The people really liked the dynamic way I talked and especially my idea. The fact that people liked my idea shows me that it really has potential, and I will pursue it. 3. I tried to talk the same way like in my first elevator pitch, but started with a little bit of small talk about the corona situation to start off the video well . I wanted to care about my viewers and the people I talk to!

My vision of my customer is a 18-20 year old college student who runs busy schedules. The hobby my customer has is not really anything, but he just has busy schedules and wants a quick snack. The tend to not have a car but they might have a bike. My customer is a smart intelligent man.  What I have in common:   What I have in common is the need for a quick snack. I personally have a scooter. I do not think it is a coincidence as I also have a need for a quick snack before my class or after it when I have enough time.
