Can do potato penetration with soft straw challenge.

H de la Costa Campus, AGSB, Makati City | September 30, 2013

                   JC and Vicky (they both like they are Chinese) believing in their ability;  Martin too showing he can do it!

I got this exercise from our Entrep Guest, Mr. Silverio who owns the Guadalupe Commercial Complex.  He was an entrep guest at ADB which I used to teach also.

The challenge consist of penetrating the hard potato with a soft straw.

This a challenge of the mind over matter, of being positive, of can do attitude.  Many would usually think that it is an impossible task.

Some of the strategies used:  Akeel  used force, others screwed it, others slowly but surely.  But at the end of the day, they met the challenge.  Competition, ie knowing that others were done, was a motivator too.

We sometimes define entrepreneurship is a "passionate belief in the dream, which others sometimes think are impossible."  It is a belief in the "power of dreams"  that could be sometimes obsessive.

Do you believe in your dreams, and your ability to achieve them?
