Business 183

This week was great I learned a lot from the readings and the videos. I have enjoyed the e-corner videos throughout the semester. I didn’t know a lot about entrepreneurship before this class but I have learned a lot from watching these videos. I liked how Google allotted their employees 20% of their time for the own creative time. I think this was genius. Google realized that they had very smart people for them and that if they gave them time to use there platform and brains they could create something great. The employees did just that. 50% of the products that were released in I believe 2005 or 2006 was from the free 20% allotted to their employees.  This is why Google is a very successful company. I really enjoyed think big. I liked his enthusiasm towards his business. By creating a good business and working hard Taylor Richards was able to create a successful business that landed him in the top ten for boat shops in the United States.  I think this is very important when a person choose the career path of an entrepreneur. Any idea you have you need to pursue it, and take the time to develop it. Its important to know that anything is possible and you can accomplish anything if you think big.
