WHEN AM I GOING TO USE THIS? BY DONOVAN DUBOIS
“When am I going to use this?” - This was a question I frequently asked in High school that usually ended in dirty looks from my teachers and mean responses. It was never meant to be an offensive question, I was simply curious. Almost every teacher struggled with answering this question, unless their answer was “If you ever become a calculus teacher you will use it everyday!”. It wasn’t until my freshman year of college that I finally found a class that could answer the question with ease. Entrepreneurship is a mindset, a set of values that you live by each and every day. It's a way of thinking, collaborating but most of all it’s a lifestyle. Starting your own business certainly is not for everyone, but the entrepreneurial mindset. Whether its; taking risks, divergent & convergent thinking, problem solving or creative thinking, entrepreneurship never leaves you thinking, “When am I going to use this?”.
