    1. When you are overwhelmed by negative emotions, try to put them aside until you have the opportunity to express them fully and in an environment that they won’t have a negative impact.

      I agree with this statement because without a clear mind, you cannot make well thought-out decisions. You will end up with a rashly made choice, so it is important to make sure you are not filled with undesirable emotions when you choose.

    1. For the intern, knowing what their job will entail by first completing an internship can make the transition to a full-time position a smooth one

      I see this as a helpful sidenote. if one does an internship, they already have an idea of how the company works and functions. It will make it easier for them to adapt to the environment if they join as a full-time employee than someone who just got accepted with no prior knowledge to the company.

    1. Design the experiment. First, you have to build out the details of the experiment and figure out how everything will fit and mesh together. For this, you must have a solid and reliable method of collecting data, meaning the data gathered must be reliable and actionable.Build the experiment. In this stage, think simple and small. Many startups tend to go big and complicated on the get-go, and they end up being overwhelmed and unable to handle it. It would be better to build the smallest possible increment that will still be enough for you to use to validate or reject the hypothesis you have made previously.Run the experiment. This is where you will collect the data. The most common methods include conducting interviews or distributing questionnaires. In some instances, others may come out with prototypes for testing.

      This is an excellent cycle for experimentation. It's very broad, so it allows everything in between to work which induces creativity. It's a simple yet effective way to carry things out.

    1. While big risks can potentially lead to big disappointment, they can also lead to big rewards. If you want the payoff, you have to take the risk.

      I agree with this statement. The only way to achieve big is to play big, which does mean taking calculated risks with the idea you will be able to succeed. It is best to fail at the beginning, because you won't have much to lose. it you fail near the end, that's potentially a huge lost.
