Reflection is important for growth
As Peter Drucker said: “Follow effective action with quiet reflection. From the quiet reflection, will come even more effective action.”
Reflection allows the brain to sort through all the beliefs, actions, and meanings, and learn from past outcomes.
Research shows that employees who reflected 15 min at the end of each day performed 23 % better after 10 days than the ones who did not.

- I have learned how complex it can be to run a business. It is really a thought-provoking process. There are things that the company might need that is just not in the budget that the company has to go without. When running a business, it is important to understand the financial aspect because that place a major roll. The finances have to be right in order for the company to be successful.
- I would like to learn the formulas that were used in the spread and how to make a spread sheet like the one used in this class. I truly believe the formulas in that spreadsheet could help me in my everyday life or even in my career, because I work in finance. In finance and in many other industries a detailed understanding of excel formulas will take you far.
