    Hi Emanuely,
    I also read mindset by Carol Dweck, I also feel it is very important to have a positive mindset so that when you are faced with failure you don't give up. Instead you keep going and try different solutions so that you can find a better solution. It would be really fun to design a project for the business idea that we had and plan out each step of how we would get our respective business's off the ground. It is very interesting that we control our mindset every day and that really can change how much we accomplish on a day-to-day basis.

Reading Reflection No. 3

What was the general theme or argument of the book?  Daniel Kahneman's "Thinking, Quick and Slow"  The general point around this book is that you have in mind two mechanisms that continuously battle for decision power.  How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? This book helped me more financially when learning about the two main mechanisms that conflict with my decision making.  If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, what would that exercise involve? The exercise would have many problems that students would have to solve thinking fast. 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? Just learning to not overthink too much.

Gainesville also does not have anywhere where they can buy food to cook. There is not a specific type of customer. The customers will be from all over the world, so I cannot imagine only one type. What I have in common with the customers is that I am from another country and I live in Gainesville, I have the same need.
