Weekly Goals
- Finish social media campaign enough to be able to launch next week.
- Continue casual conversations with friends, with new questions and new goals in mind.
- Come up with a more creative/original title (STILL struggling w this one)
Ok, so I think I need to talk to some designer friends and make them help me come up with a better title, all mine are too cheesy and don’t have the elegance factor that I’m looking for. Right now my best option is “Majoring in Mistakes” which is major cheese. I’m working on finding inspiration but its not getting me very far, so this is something I need to focus on more, I feel as if it will pull together my project.
This past week I feel like I made a lot of progress in terms of refinement. I clearly defined my audience (only those entering college). And I also went through and answered my questions and realized what was working and what wasn’t. I started out with 6 questions and that was too much/ some of the questions were redundant. I now have three questions that I feel like ask different things and gracefully transition into conversations.
Questions
- If you could go back to when you started college, what advice would you give your freshman self?
- What do you think changed the most about you? Why?
- What would you do different if you knew better?
These questions have been working out to in my casual conversations and I can already see some common themes emerging. Mostly that people recognize they have grown and changed into completely different people since they were freshman. I’m also thinking about how I can articulate these questions correctly so that its not necessarily all about mistakes, but instead about lessons.
Quote of the Week:
“What do you think changed the most about you in college?”
“IDK I dropped out” -lizzie hahahha
