reading reflection 3

The thing or fact that surprised me the most about the Wright Brothers was how many failed attempts they had before finally succeeding. It takes true resilience to pursue a goal as lofty as flying. Flying is something that has truly changed the way the world operates. Suddenly, everything and everyone is now accessible to places they never dreamed they would visit. I would say their grit and determination is what I admire most about the entrepreneurs. Without that, none of their success would have been accomplished. Something else I deeply admired was Wilbur's toughness when he was gruesomely hit in the face during the hockey game. One of the most notable competencies I noticed was their will to never give up. One of the parts of the readings that was a bit confusing to me was the process of how he began to make profit from the West Side News. I don't recall much detail in the process of what they wrote about but they eventually found success in that venture. The first question I would ask them would be, " where did the idea of flight pop into your head or what inspired that vision?" I would just love to know where he thought of that possibility what they thought it really entailed at time of development. It did not seem like they had much of an opinion of hard work because that is all they knew. Without hard work, none of their success would have occurred.
