The Networking breakfast was a great experience for me. I was able to mingle and get business cards from people. As well as great advice for my career path and future colleges. I got to walk around by myself so I could really focus on who I was speaking to and make a connection. It was fun experience especially in the end when we got to eat some good Panera.

The day of the competition really was great in my eyes. Although I didn't advance it was still nice to get to explain something I love to people who may not even thought about something such as my product before. It showed me things that I may need to work on such as ways to get Kytastic out into the open. I learned in the process how to break even so I won't lose money instead of making money. It was a great experience.

This year was my first ever Guardians of Hope Dinner. It was an awesome experience to go and hang out with alumni. As well as sell raffle tickets. It was something I have never done before. I would love to participate in Guardian's in any way possible next year. The food was great and not to mention I got the chance to get my idea out there.

My least favorite experience would be the dining etiquette. I was not there for the experience. I really don't know how it went.

My favorite guest speaker would have to be Lauren Lantero. She came in and taught us what's appropriate for Guardian's and what was not. It cleared up a lot of questions I had. Also she taught us how to tie a bow tie. I still haven't gotten the hang of it but it was worth the try.

Always be prepared for trials and errors if your first idea didn't work try again and again. It's okay to mess up. Everyone makes mistakes it's just a matter of what lesson did you gain from making that mistake. How can it make your product better or worse.

Remember to be yourself and try to put your story into it. Whether or not you believe it some people have gone through the same thing as you. Try to put your own story into your product to make it relatable. Being yourself would really attract people. Instead of trying so hard being someone else or trying to solve a problem you have no experience with do something close to you.

I learned many things. Some things I learned were how networking is something that can change your life. It can give you future connections that you can use for the rest of your life. It is the gateway of working in the work force. You never know how an encounter can shape your future positively or negatively.

I learned that Kytastic is a good product that just needs some work. Although I did not advance far, that doesn't mean I have a terrible product. I learned from the judges there are people out there that would love to learn about my product I just have to think of ways to promote it better. As well as get more connections through networking to achieve my goal of putting Kytastic Cosmetics out there.

Another valuable lesson would be there's not a such thing as a terrible product. Everyone has different stories. Although our stories are different most of us may have in some point of our lives have experienced the same problems. That's why there's no such thing as a terrible product because whatever solution you come up with there's a problem out there for it.

Through my time in NFTE I would for sure say all ideas matter. Do not be afraid to put your idea out there. It's okay to put your idea out there no matter what you think. Shooters miss 100% of the shots they don't take. Shoot your shot eventually you'll make a bucket/ products that'll go even farther than you think

I feel like this class has taught me outside the class room . It has taught me things such as  how to prepare for an interview. Such as doing mock interviews and comparing them. As well as how important google calls are now a days and how they could really come in handy.
