After reading Jenny Lee’s Blog in The Vancouver Sun which emphasizes Arlene Dickinson’s business advice, I realized the truth that the simple phrase ‘slow down’. It is such a simple phrase that bears such great importance. The blog continues to say that one of the main questions that owners should asks is “Why and what’s the point?” Continuously throughout my Commerce 101 class, the students are expected to be able to support their answers and statements, whether in person or especially when writing a case recommendation. It is easy to make the mistake of saying a recommendation and thinking that it’s a good idea but not really examining the consequences and purpose. Therefore, it is not surprising that new entrepreneurs are faced with the same problems. However, the simple concepts and decision making are necessary throughout all aspects in business that professors strive to teach to students and which is additionally reinforced through other well-known business professionals advice. Reading the advice of Arlene Dickinson, made me realize that being able to make good decisions that are supported and that maintain purpose are absolutely key to success and are emphasized throughout my school and classes.
