1) Pick an opportunity you would like to pursue. - The opportunity to make an affordable/convenient way for students to get a variety of good quality food, with a basic instruction process on how to make it. 2) Clearly state the opportunity you have identified, including the who, what, why. The who: College Students The what: They are unable to easily, efficiently make or afford food that has enough nutrients for their body to absorb on a daily basis The why: They don't have the time to go grocery shopping and/or they do not know how to cook 3) This is your 'hypothesis' about the opportunity.

Identifying Local Opportunities 1.- 5 Dead in North Carolina as Florence brings heavy flooding and power outages https://www.gainesville.com/zz/news/20180914/5-dead-in-north-carolina-as-florence-brings-heavy-flooding-and-power-outages Hurricane Florence has left five people dead and destroyed everything it has in front. It is a category 1 (Slow-motion) hurricane that now we can see it is deadly. The problem is that even though is a category 1 hurricane, because of its slow pace it destroys everything in its path. People are dying because of it and it can take several days for the hurricane to leave. There are multiple individuals with this problem. People trying to not lose their houses and their own lives. The Governor that is in charge of the city and its people has most of the responsibility of what the outcome might be. 2.- Prisoner kills cellmate in prison north of Gainesville https://www.gainesville.com/news/20180914/prisoner-kills-cellmate-in-prison-nor...

I have been involved in entrepreneurship since I was little. My dad owns a big company in Mexico. This company is in charge of distributing machinery from other countries all around Mexico and also giving excellent customer service. Obviously, when I was little I went to play with my toys but as I got older I got tasks assigned. These tasks included to do the inventory of the warehouse, sweep the entire company, pick up papers from the printing machine and run it to specific people in the office. Now I am starting to know the financial and operational side of the company. I feel is incredible that my dad built all that from nothing and that my involvement in it has been in all possible sectors. I always though entrepreneurship was only about inventing new tangible products to sell. Now because of this class, my minded has expanded and I look at it in a different way. I like the idea of finding any problem in life and trying to make everything possibl...

Why: I usually drive fast and there is a rule that says if someone is going faster than you in the fast lane, move to your right... let them pass. 3.- People that talk too much without giving you a chance to talk back. Why: I had a bad experience with a girl that she would talk 24/7 and not give me a chance to reply at any time. 4.- Very religious people trying to convince you to believe in what they believe in.

Why: This world is our home and we treat it like if it was literally trash. I get so heated over how we as humans have damaged the environment without even thinki...
