1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations?
What surprised me about this week's reading is the mention of the creative aspect of the human mind and how it can be exercised and improved. I agree 100% with the author on this aspect and am very surprised that this is mentioned in a book about Entrepreneurship. It definitely promotes the open-mindedness that is necessary to have an entrepreneurial mindset. This is most different from my expectations, however I appreciate this excerpt of the book.
2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.
One part of the reading that was kind of confusing for me was the part where the author tried to explain how people use either the left or right brain and he spoke as if people knew that they could control their cognitive development. I feel that this subject is more in depth and doesn't really relate entirely to our class because most people not not understand this section.
3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why?
How do you control the extent of how much you use your left or right brain? I ask this because as the author puts it, it seems that it may come more natural to him.
Is the extent of our creativity what helps facilitate innovation in kind of a natural way, as if by accident? I ask this because of how the author conveys the sense that innovation can happen from accidental occurrences.
4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How?
In this section, I don't find anything I completely disagree with.
