Lessons Learned:
I especially loved learning about Steve Jobs this week. His story is so inspiring. Going from dropping out of school to Apple is certainly a leap he was not expecting. Be he is a true innovator and didn't settle for the status quo of life. I really loved his ideas about dreaming big and finding work that you are passionate about. I really want to focus on finding a career I can be passionate about when I graduate and not just settle for the first job that comes along because I am afraid no one will hire me at my age. I was really able to use Steve's "connect the dots" analogy in seeing out my life has been a series of dots that were connected. Though I'm not sure I understand some of those dots yet, I have faith that they are for a reason. I like the way his perspective on life changed after his first scare with cancer. Asking yourself every day if what you are doing is important and a priority that will help accomplish your dreams. I liked Guy Kawasaki's lesson he learned from Steve Jobs. I especially like when he said "Customers cannot tell you what they need -- customers will tell you they want better, faster cheaper--that is, better sameness, not revolutionary change. Sometimes all you need to do for the customer is make something better, whether it's a process or a product.
$100 Challenge:
This week I did not work specifically on my $100 challenge because I am in the middle of moving. I have thought about different ideas I can look into when I get settled to create more business. I am going to look into medical transcription because those services always need typing done on a daily basis, and for the most part, you can accept as much work as you want. I would like to still find more ways to get work generated for my business. My numbers are the same as last week: Revenue $143, Expenses: $10, Net Profit: $133.
