Whats your Secret Sauce?


I think what makes me different from other people is my unique ability to relate to anyone that I meet. I walk into a room and I catch on to the personalities of people and can easily talk to them about just about anything. I also think that I am a very driven person, I have been dealt some pretty tough cards in my life and I never give up until I reach my goals. I think that I am very easy to work with and drive other people around me to be great as well because I love seeing people close to me succeed. I also think that I am a very dependable person, because if I tell someone I will do something I always follow through. Lastly I think that I am a greta time manager, I use this to help me to be all of the things I said above. Great time management helps you to do all these other things.

My key takeaway from this interview is that I am a very loving person and that I care about everyone around me. I would sacrifice some things that benefit me to help the people around me succeed.

My key takeaway from this interview is that I am very trustworthy and I will always act with integrity. I have a no man left behind attitude and I will make sure that people around me succeed with me.

Interview 4:

My key takeaway is that I can always get along with new people. Like I said I can walk into a room and find a way to make friends and converse with anyone no matter their background or hobbies.

Interview 5:

My key takeaway from this interview is that I am good with dealing with adversity. I have had times in my life that are very rough with illness and I have worked through them and achieved things that doctors said I may never.


I think most of my interviews went as I expected. I feel like I am a very self aware person and knew what people think of me. I have always felt like a strong social person and I know that I am very mentally strong and can battle through adversity. I would say that I would not change anything on my personal list because that is who I am to myself and other people.

    When conducting my interviews, the responses I got were also expected. I also didn't change the five attributes I listed beforehand, because even after listening to my family and friend's responses I still felt that I embodied these traits. Moreover, I really enjoyed how you recorded these interviews, rather than just hearing the audio I liked that I was able to see the interviewees.

    You did a good job. Like you pointed out, it seems like your own attributes and the qualities that your interviewee's talked about aligned well. I think being self-aware of your strengths and weaknesses is a great quality because you can identify areas you could improve or something you would be really good at. I also like that your interviews were video recorded because it added a more personal touch to the assignment.

Identifying Local Opportunities

1.     Four cling to life after Saturday morning head-on crash in Madeira Beach http://infoweb.newsbank.com.lp.hscl.ufl.edu/resources/doc/nb/news/166B004D9D8F3AF0?p=WORLDNEWS In this article four people were injured in a head-on car crash. A young man driving a corvette going east on the Tom Stuart Causeway lost control and passed into the opposite lane of traffic. The car then crashed head on into another vehicle causing extensive injuries and damage. It seems as of now that alcohol, weather, and reckless driving were the causes. The problem is that drunk people still have the choice to start their car and drive while they are intoxicated. The main problem here seems to be the alcohol involved many people make bad decisions while intoxicated. The first being to enter their car, but then to also drive recklessly. This causes a problem for all people on the road driving because they are in danger. It also presents problems for insurance companies and the medical...

Your Venture's Unfair Advantage

1.      My ability to relate to anyone that I meet very quickly. o    This is valuable because it can help in situations with pitching ideas to a probable investor or meeting with prospective customers. If you can relate to those people they will connect with you. This may not be very rare but I feel like it is a pretty unique characteristic many people can communicate well but to be able to understand what people like very quickly and be able to talk about those things is somewhat rare. I think this is hard to imitate because it is a skill that has taken many years to obtain by talking to many people and getting good at reading their personalities. I do not think this is something that is substitutable. 2.      Being extremely driven and turning failures into successful lessons. o    This is valuable because many people are discouraged by failures instead of learning from them and letting it motivate them to be even bet...

Growing Your Social Capital

1.      1 st person o    The first person I contacted is John Morgan an Outside Sales Associate for Air Filters, Inc. o    This person is filling my supplier slot because as an outside sales person he sells filters and parts for filters to other companies that would be likely competitors. o    I found this person through LinkedIn and contacted him through their In-Mail feature. o    I simply asked Mr. Morgan who his top consumers were and whether his main sales were to other businesses or to the ultimate consumer. I do not know what the return expectation would be. o    I think having someone who understand sales especially in my industry is a good connection, because based on his knowledge I can know who my competitors are and how to outperform them. 2.      2 nd person o    The second person I contacted was Chris Mullins a commercial salesman who also works for Air Filt...
