your understanding about "DEATH OF THE CONSUMERS" .. cite examples (at least 3000words)
What is Consumer and Prosumer?
Who are they?
When did it start?
“The Death of the Consumers”, it is not literally that Consumers is already dead. But for me in our generation Consumers now have already evolved also and they are called now “The Prosumers”. So as I continue this wonderful topic there are things or questions that bind in my mind as I go along with this and this are:
What is CONSUMER and PROSUMER?
Who are they?
When did it start?
Where?
Those questions that bind in my mind are the four (4) WH questions that can help me and us to really understand first the true meaning out of it, as we continue the topic of the DEATH OF THE CONSUMERS and maybe as we tackle these questions we will be able to answer our mean thought and help us learn a lot in this topic and the things that happen in our environment because as we live here in this world there are things we don’t know but they changing now so we must be aware of it because who know it maybe can help us or affect on us a lot in our daily life and wonderful Job opportunity. So first:
What is CONSUMER and PROSUMER?
Consumer is a broad label for any individuals or households that use goods and services generated within the economy. The concept of a consumer occurs in different contexts, so that the usage and significance of the term may vary.
A Consumer plays a vital role in the economical system of a nation because in the absence of the effective demand that emanates from them, the economy virtually collapses. Mahatma Gandhi said a customer is the most important visitor in our premises. He is not dependent on us, we are on him. He is not an interruption to our work; he is the purpose of it.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer
Prosumer is a portmanteau formed by contracting either the word professional or producer with the word consumer. The term has taken on multiple conflicting meanings: the business sector sees the prosumer (professional–consumer) as a market segment, whereas economists see the prosumer (producer–consumer) as having greater independence from the mainstream economy. It can also be thought of as converse to the consumer with a passive role, denoting an active role as the individual gets more involved in the process. More recently, in the mental health field, the word "'prosumer'" has come to mean "consumer/provider," also known as a "peer provider," such as a peer support specialist or other mental health consumer who also provides peer support mental health services (background on peer-run mental health services). The word "Prosumerise" has been coined by Widality to represent the merging of the IT and mobility requirements of the prosumer, consumer, and enterprise.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosumer
“Consumer” is the one who are just the person or individual that the one who use the product, goods or services or shall we say they are just the users in our community Mahatma Gandhi said: “He is not an interruption to our work; he is the purpose of it.” Consumers have no power to roll over in a certain company or a certain business. Maybe they do have the power but not that so power that can manage things in a certain products or business, yes it is right consumers is the purpose of it because consumers are the one will use the products, in a business they are the reason why Big Company invent and working such thing that can help in our society. So let us continue about the “Prosumer” (Professional / Producer-consumer) is this case consumer turns into prosumer which means that prosumers have the power they are Professional and Producer they are the one who demand in our community or in a certain company or business, prosumer “denating an active role as the individual gets more involved in the process.” They are part now in a certain business and company, prosumer are the main provider of the company, with the help of the prosumers company may have the advantage for them to be able to know what the needs in our community. And they do have the other term of it is called “Prosumerise” (Prosumer, Consumer, and EnterPrise) making it cool that they do have really now the power to roll over our industry today.
And next is WHO question:
Who are they?
Yah, after all those things we have learned and tackle what is consumer and prosumer. Now we will going to proceed and to know who are this people, maybe now we have a big idea who are this people and yes you are right, yeah we are the one who could PROSUMERS and we are the CONSUMERS also but now we are in the new generation and this generation called “INFORMATION”, through this advance technology we people the one who provide and generate idea on it only they are the one who create it.
When did it start?
It is already started Hmm…. I guess around 2000’s up to this year and soon and soon, why I say so this year. Because base in our society (PHILIPPINES) we all know that our country 10 or 20 years gap to the other country maybe in others they are already Prosumers in early 90’s or 80’s this gap maybe because of the corruptions that we have in our country I’m not saying na “GINADAO-TAN NAKO ATONG COUNTRY” but I’m just saying the reality, it hurts because it is true(nn). It is already started so we people now have the power to demand the business or nay companies that having their own product and help them generate new idea for them they could help in our society also (nn) vice versa we help them and they help us also, we will just pray that they will not doing such things that so could “CORRUPTION”. We that are living in the same country same blood and same faith we should help each other to rise up in poverty and be equal.
Where?
Where? By the power of our technologies, gadgets and many more. For example Computer with internet connection, mobile phones, TV, Radio etc. that help us a lot to have a communications between the BUSINESS MAN and the CONSUMERS / PROSUMERS.
WE ARE NO LONGER CONSUMERS BUT A PROSUMERS!
“THINK or IMAGINE it, and we can do it.”

Make Meaning - Exercise 3
Make Meaning
Building a new FUTURE.
To quote a small part of this video, he says that:
“if you make meaning, you will probably make money. But if you set out to make money, you will probably
not make meaning and you won’t make money”
As most of us dream as students and future professionals we are all dreaming to start our own business, it is
important that we acquire the proper mindset of a Technopreneur. And this includes having the right
reasons for starting a company.
Making meaning implies adding significance or value to something; doing something that is novel, relevant,
appropriate, worthwhile and highly useful.
For example, in the context of Bangkok, you probably agree that opening another spa or internet cafe
does not create much value, while coming up with an innovative traffic and transport concept for the metropolis
represents a significant value proposition. As Guy Kawasaki points out, making meaning is all
about making our world a better place.
http://hermorningafter.blogspot.com/2010/12/guy-kawasaki-make-meaning.html
At first above all else we as a member of this society or community we ourselves know who we
are but in the reality as a students or ordinary people we don’t know if we are really a TECHNOPRENEUR or
something, until we are belong in that certain name: “Technopreneur” and generate idea, business plan
or doing on it as a business man. There really is only one question a big, BIG QUESTION we should ask to
ourselves before we start at any new venture in our LIFE:
[size=18]Do we need to make meaning?[/size]
Meaning is not just about earning MONEY or something all about money, to have a POWER,
a power to control something to make it as a robot out of it or controlling the things that surrounds you
or PRESTIGE or just for the a reputation for you family sake to be considered as a selfish way of thinking.
Those are all NONE-SENSE for a person or certain companies in our society or community;
maybe they are now existed but if only we (people) have the power to judge them or to evaluate them
for me they are all vanish. Among the meaning “MEANING” are to:
1. Make the world a better place.
2. Increase the quality of life.
3. Right a wrong.
4. Prevent the end of something good.
http://www.enotalone.com/article/6447.html
Those are all mention in the video in titled “ART OF THE START: MAKE MEANING” by GUY KAWASAKI, before we
will elaborate the four (4) “MAKE MEANING” some kind a strategies we must first to know:
Who is GUY KAWASAKI?
GUY KAWASAKI is a managing director of Garage Technology Ventures, an early-stage venture capital
firm and a columnist for Entrepreneur Magazine. Previously, he was an Apple Fellow at Apple Computer, Inc.
Guy is the author of nine books including Reality Check, The Art of the Start, Rules for
Revolutionaries, How to Drive Your Competition Crazy, Selling the Dream, and The Macintosh Way. He
has a BA from Stanford University and an MBA from UCLA as well as an honorary doctorate
from Babson College.
My “Real Story”
Currently, I’m a founding partner at Garage and co-founder of Alltop as well as a husband, father,
author, speaker, and hockey addict. Alltop is an online magazine rack that I hope you’ll check out—you’ll
probably enjoy Innovation.alltop, for example. I’ve also written nine books. My latest is Reality Check.
You can read about my other eight books here.
http://www.guykawasaki.com/about/index.shtml
Make the world a better place.
To make the world a better place is we should do things and build things that are not harmful to all
of us the People and Environment. A place that we can call MINE or US, we should establish business that are
useful to all people and make something are so meaning to our life, in our daily lifestyle as we
live here in this world. A business that can benefit both BUSINESS and PEOPLE and special our ENVIRONMENT too.
Increase the quality of life.
Many truly great innovations in the history of humanity greatly increased the quality of people's life.
Can you imagine how our daily lives have changed by the invention of the personal computer? What about
mobile phones or the internet? How about air conditioning or electricity, not to mention airplanes,
cars, and other means of transport. We need to ask: How can we increase the quality of life of our customers
with what we're doing? Over 100 million products sold testify to how the iPod has increased the
quality of life for music lovers around the world.
-ire's morning|Techy
We must not be motivated by making MONEY, but we must be motivated by changing the world to make people to be
more creative and more productive to increase the QUALITY OF LIFE. The most important thing is when we are waking
up in the early morning and then thinking a new things a new adventure in our life.
Right a wrong.
Take note of problems you encounter as you go through life on a list and look for ways to turn these
problems into business or innovation opportunities. What annoys you and needs to be fixed? What does not
work as well as it should? What is poorly designed and needs improvement? What unmet and often
unarticulated need has not yet been addressed by the market? What really sucks and could be changed
for the better by you? Online music is a good example: P2P-sharing services allowed people to
easily find their favorite songs online. In October 2003, Apple righted another wrong by offering a legal way
to acquire songs online with the opening of the iTunes Music Store.
-ire's morning|Techy
To set things in a POSITIVE way always, convert the PROBLEMS into SOLUTION and a STRENGTH.
Solution will never exist without the word PROBLEM. Optimistic can help us a lot to move ahead BOLD
and CONFIDENT thinking everything will be go through in our life.
Prevent the end of something good.
As the world changes, people vary in their perception of which of these changes are good and bad.
Is there something good, beautiful, or wonderful that is about to come to an end due to changes in the environment?
If you just cannot stand the fact that something good is about to end, turn the problem into an
opportunity to start a business, an innovation project or a social movement. For example, in Africa,
national parks with premium safari lodges help to preserve the beauty of the African wilderness while
creating job opportunities for the locals and tourism income for the country and its entrepreneurs.
-ire's morning|Techy
Go! Aal iz wel!
Prevent the end of a something good, yes indeed we must go through of what is good and improve it and build it
something that is more than before. We must not be contented the things that we have, we have to move smoothly
in a way that can benefit the WORLD.
"Anything that won't sell, I don't want to invent. Its sale is proof of utility, and utility is success," said
Thomas Edison. Like Guy Kawasaki, the world's greatest inventor understood: To make money, first focus your
innovation efforts on making meaning. Make it your prime motivation to engage in creativity and
your main judgment criteria for innovation.

Trends and Opportunities Convergence - Exercise 4
Identify and discuss Trends and Opportunities in convergence (at least 2000 words with image/s)
[size=24]Convergence[/size]
What is Convergence?
The act, condition, quality, or fact of converging.
is the approach toward a definite value, a definite point, a common view or opinion, or toward a
fixed or equilibrium state. In mathematics, it describes limiting behavior, particularly of an infinite
sequence or series.
http://www.answers.com/topic/convergent-evolution
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence
New services, new technologies, new market structures, new business models, and less stringent
regulations. Convergence has brought change not only in the way we live, but also in the way we
think. But then, not everything is rosy about convergence. The truth, however is, the
challenges have to be met. There is no run-away option.
There are two important identifiable trends here. One, the selection of media is no longer an
either-or. It is a mix-n-match. Two, the control over the message is steadily moving from the source
to the receiver.
Now, that itself is convergence for many. But then, there is much more to the word.
[size=18]Build Various Logic Out of the Commotion:[/size]
Convergence is a cool word, with lots of marketing value attached to it. It looks good in
advertisements and sounds impressive in tag lines. Network, terminal end, telecom, datacom,
broadcasting, IT, voice, data, video, computer telephony… there are as many definitions
as there are stakeholders.
Without going into the specifics like what should be included and what should not, we give
a definition here which is quite broad, all embracing, and so naturally not very helpful for those
who want to jump to examples. Like modern physicists, it tries to put a unified picture,
a sort of Theory of Everything (ToE). Yet, one will not be surprised if some still find it correct
yet inadequate, the most common phrase to describe all these definitions.
Convergence refers to the blurring of dividing lines among traditionally distinct products and
services, technologies, markets, industries, and regulatory structures.
[size=18]Concern:[/size]
While no one can deny that convergence is happening today, there is a wide gap between
the perception and reality regarding the nature, extent, and pace of convergence at different levels
such as infrastructure, consumer devices, markets, and regulation. For example, while more of
the talks revolve around accessing Internet from cellphone or through television sets, they are not a
large-scale commercial reality anywhere in the world. But a less glamorous convergence like
Intelligent Networks at the carrier infrastructure level or Internet over cable (not through TV, but
through cable modem and PC) are realities.
This has primarily three reasons. One, the network has to be ready for offering new services and
capability before the end user can access it through fancy consumer devices with new capabilities.
Two, the service providers have traditionally been in one business (telecom, broadcasting, etc.)
and they want to expand the scope of that business by diversifying to other services or offering newer
services. Hence, they are adopting newer technologies for the purpose. Last but not the
least, selling to the service providers is more focused and the selling cycle time is lower. For consumers,
it requires a lot of marketing effort.
http://voicendata.ciol.com/content/convergence/199120108.asp
[size=18]Convergence Presumption:[/size]
Theory proposing that collective behaviour is the result of people with similar interests coming together
and acting upon those interests. People at a sporting event, for example, often have similar class,
racial, or residential backgrounds to which they strongly identify. Consequently, they are likely to respond
similarly to precipitating agents.

Technopreneurship 2 :: Exercise 2
Try to walk around somewhere and discover technopreneur idea ...your experience(s) .. at least 2000 words
Walkwith INTEGRITY. .
Walking, walking, walking and walking. Well, not all the time I’m always walking, not just literally walking
like you will exert some effort for your feet but for me as i go along with my life, I’m walking my journey in
life here in this world. There are a lot of things comes in my mind, PROBLEMS, FUTURE LIFE, GOD and many things
that are binds in my mind. So as I start my journey, let me think first…….. From the previous days that
past in my life, while walking in the lonely road in TAGUM CITY my home town I came to realized to myself and
for my business plan in Technopreneurship, the mostly problems and complains of many people are more on the
SECURITY and the QUALITY of something that is worth living for. Examples are in the Hospital, PCSO Outlets,
Drug Stores, Stores, and many, many more aspects in our life.
So as I continue my journey(November 29, 2010) as I traveled a long the way with Bus going to Davao City specifically
at Brgy. Obrero wherein the University of Southeastern Philippines is; while in the road to success I’m writing
something that is so very important to me which is my DREAMS in Financial, Emotional, Physical, and Spiritual
aspects. So I came to think for a business that is worthy to our community and that is suits to our needs and something
that can make us happy and enjoy doing it.
A device that automatically and able to know the Music Notes of a certain instrument just like Guitar, Piano, Violin,
Drums and many more I named it PORTABLE MUSIC NOTE INSTRUCTOR(PMNI) Device. And most of us Love Music, some
of us Music for them is their life. Through music they can express their feelings if they are ANGRY, HAPPY,
SAD, DOUBT, LOVE, PRAISE, WORSHIPS and many more. This device is a portable device and has a microphone
to be able to catch-up sounds and sound waves and display it in the miniscreen, miniscreen it has a small screen that
has 1 inch height and 1.5 inches width in order to the device able to display Music Notes, speakers
cause it enable also to record music so speaker is useful to create sounds so that the user may know also the exact tune
of a certain note and other settings that can help to manage the application and device, and one important thing
is the buttons of course for us to have the control and for us to manage to set things whether the device and the application that
is set for, is the same to the instrument that is played.
It is very useful for sure specially to those Music Lover and I know for sure we are all Love Music right? You may lie or
disagree.(nn) To all those people that don’t know the Music Notes of a certain music then go use it. Another special feature
of this device is, it is not just for an Instrument but also to the Music. If you played music in the mp4, iPod,
laptop or in cell phone it can detect also and able to manipulate and extract Music Notes in the Screen wherein it is very
useful to all who want to know more about the Music Notes of any music he/she may heard. The device also can manage
to record music in order to the user enjoy playing music at any time.
Partial Image of the Device:
Source: http://img.tomshardware.com/uk/2005/09/13/apple_ipod_nano/ipod_nano3.jpg
It is not exactly the image of the device I just copied it in a MP4, but I post this image due to the similarity of device and
partial, for at least I can give information about what is the image of a Portable Music Lover Instructor (PMLI) Device for in the
near future, if it will implement or develop in the near future.
At Last The END! . . . Weeehh! . .

Technopreneurship 2 :: Exercise 1
Your reflection/learning's on Technopreneurship 1 (at least 2000 words)
At first, for me technopreneurship is just dealing with money, something that you may able to gain money in
anyways. For me technopreneurship is all like that money, money and money no more no less, and my first
impression or my expectation, is it important for me to study or to get this course? How this subject
technopreneurship could affects or improve my knowledge as an Information Technology? Those things
and illusions are the things that bind and rolling in my mind, which are all non-sense, hopeless and
not so interested. But as we go along with the discussion, learning, knowledge and many more activities,
things made different and it turns my Mind Set and expectation up side down which drive me crazy, that
made me guilty of what I have judged the subject at first.
First Day of meeting we assigned a task “Connecting the 9 (nine) Dots” for just a 4 (four) stroke, that the
pen should not be lift up or must not do such things that are called CHEAT and continue to answer task as
far as I could remember “Our Expectation of the Class and the Facilitator Randy Gamboa”, total of
100 points but sad to say I am one of those many student that are not able to achieve or to connect the
9 correctly. I’ve realized that you could not connect the dots by just simply thinking within box but we
must think beyond the box, beyond in our imagination that in relate in our life who should expect more,
and dream high, as a successful professional person someday I should not just to think to be employee
but to be a employer someday that I should build and established my own company or business.
As we go along with our discussion in the next following days, our facilitator organized and shown us the
story of Steve Jobs which is called “Pirates of the Silicon Valley” wherein it tackles about the life of Steve
Jobs from the beginning until now to his career. Well anyway who is Steve Jobs? (Born February 24, 1955)
is an American business magnate and inventor. He is well known for being the co-founder and chief executive
officer of Apple. Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of
the board of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of Pixar by Disney http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs.
He’s full name is Steven Paul Jobs, can you imagine his life? It is so amazing that
how great his achievements are, but somehow before those things that happens to him let us tackle about
before those things. Steve Jobs made three stories of his life, no big deals. At first story is about connecting
the dots. To summarize it all about the first story, Steve jobs is an adopted child and a dropped out college
student but it doesn’t mean that it made him to realize hopeless person but Steve Jobs said: “you can’t
connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust
that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny,
life, karma, whatever.” Simply shows that Steve jobs made he’s own decision and converting his
weakness to strength that made him a strong person and what so ever happen in our life we should look forward,
do something that worth living for. Second story is about love and loss. Love, he is so very thankful that he
early found his work that he really, really Love it more than anyone could that made him insane. He love to
work with his computer and his mini business first named “APPLE” just in their garage only. Steve Jobs is a
workaholic type of person the he love to work his own projects and works. He love his works that he gave
his all best, facing all the trials, struggles and problems with no running, stand firm for the company purpose
until the APPLE got bigger and bigger and bigger that he built his own big structured company and was so
successful but somehow Steve jobs was blinded by his power, fame and money to the point that even his
co-workers in the beginning his best friends and all peoples that surrounds him that he give-up everything,
managing the company as a robot not as a family to the sense that he is forcing all the workers to work
even though it is not duty yet and out of the limitations. And at last to the point that his best friend give up to him,
and Bill Gates Harvard students graduate so bright and intelligent person also who owned the Microsoft,
making deal with him to be a partner company wherein they may able share information each other and
collecting information and improving it by his own. Then Bill Gates betrayed Steve Jobs, and he lost his
work and everything that he have. Third story is about death. Death in a practical way of thinking, we are all
have a limitation here in this world but the bad/sad thing is we don’t know when and where is our last destination
or our calling, whether today, tomorrow and in the following days that we may go. So as the day pass by
Steve Jobs realized things about life that his journey may be about to an end in the near future, and he has
also has a diseased that may lead him to a death. He come to think and for him living the life to the fullest,
like thinking this is you last day so you should do the best you could as long as you live “Stay Hungry. Stay
Foolish.”
The next topic or discussion is about the SEED, S stands for Self-Mastery, E is for Environment Mastery,
E is for Enterprise Mastery and last one D is for Development. So first we discuss about S which is
Self-Mastery means it is all about your self and how you manage yourself as an individual in our society
and specially as a Technopreneurship in the near future. Self-Mastery is also about knowing yourself more,
you Love, Best, Irritant, Like, Dislike, Weakness and Strength for you to be able to know who you really
are. Love we must know on where field we are expect something that for you as individual you may
excel, Best is about more on and some kind a similar about Love but Best about in the field you we about
to select on what part or sub works or specific field you are expect that you able to impart your knowledge all about,
Irritant – Dislike and Weakness are all similarities they are focusing and identifying on what and where
are the factors that could affects us and tendency that the enemy may used against us as a business
person someday, and the most important things is to convert our weakness into Strength, we must learn to
love our weakness for us be strong at any situation physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually.
In this way or manner we may able to be build a strong foundation for us to have a success business
person someday and able to run a company well. Personal Traits, IQ, EQ, and AQ, IQ means Intelligence Quotient,
Emotional Quotient and AQ is Adversity Quotient. And we are so blinded and we thought that the most
important thing is IQ, but definitely it is wrong. The most important thing is the EQ which is the
Emotional Quotient wherein it is more dealing with, Business Strategies, Optimistic Mind Sets,
Communication and Plans but somehow IQ is also important but the thing is IQ is useless if the person or
the business man is Hopeless and not a Risks Takers.
Next is our Purpose in Life, yah to be honest and just to ponder to our self. What is the purpose of our life?
Is it just to live, survive and to die? Is it all like that? What is the meaning of all the things that we are doing?
Is it important or it is just a non-sense because if we are all die, our wealth, skills, talents and many,
many more can not be bound in heaven or in hell. Those are all useless in the end. So I come to think,
that the Purpose in our life is about to have a fellowship with GOD, worship, praise him and give glory and
honor to his name. So as long as we are here in this world we should do our best that can honor and
glory GOD. Doing thing in the very best in schools, works, family, friends, neighbor and all peoples surrounds
us. In that way GOD will rejoice to our things that we have done.
Stay hungry and be Foolish. Do not be contented of what you have now but always think and work something
that can make people’s life Change.
[size=18]SOLUTION will never exist without the word PROBLEM.[/size]
At first, for me technopreneurship is just dealing with money, something that you may able to gain money in
anyways. For me technopreneurship is all like that money, money and money no more no less, and my first

far as I could remember “Our Expectation of the Class and the Facilitator Randy Gamboa”, total of
100 points but sad to say I am one of those many student that are not able to achieve or to connect the
9 correctly. I’ve realized that you could not connect the dots by just simply thinking within box but we
must think beyond the box, beyond in our imagination that in relate in our life who should expect more,
and dream high, as a successful professional person someday I should not just to think to be employee
but to be a employer someday that I should build and established my own company or business.
As we go along with our discussion in the next following days, our facilitator organized and shown us the
story of Steve Jobs which is called “Pirates of the Silicon Valley” wherein it tackles about the life of Steve
Jobs from the beginning until now to his career. Well anyway who is Steve Jobs? (Born February 24, 1955)
is an American business magnate and inventor. He is well known for being the co-founder and chief executive
officer of Apple. Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of
the board of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of Pixar by Disney http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Jobs.
He’s full name is Steven Paul Jobs, can you imagine his life? It is so amazing that
how great his achievements are, but somehow before those things that happens to him let us tackle about
before those things. Steve Jobs made three stories of his life, no big deals. At first story is about connecting
the dots. To summarize it all about the first story, Steve jobs is an adopted child and a dropped out college
student but it doesn’t mean that it made him to realize hopeless person but Steve Jobs said: “you can’t
connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust
that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny,
life, karma, whatever.” Simply shows that Steve jobs made he’s own decision and converting his
weakness to strength that made him a strong person and what so ever happen in our life we should look forward,
do something that worth living for. Second story is about love and loss. Love, he is so very thankful that he
early found his work that he really, really Love it more than anyone could that made him insane. He love to
work with his computer and his mini business first named “APPLE” just in their garage only. Steve Jobs is a
workaholic type of person the he love to work his own projects and works. He love his works that he gave
his all best, facing all the trials, struggles and problems with no running, stand firm for the company purpose
until the APPLE got bigger and bigger and bigger that he built his own big structured company and was so
successful but somehow Steve jobs was blinded by his power, fame and money to the point that even his
co-workers in the beginning his best friends and all peoples that surrounds him that he give-up everything,
managing the company as a robot not as a family to the sense that he is forcing all the workers to work
even though it is not duty yet and out of the limitations. And at last to the point that his best friend give up to him,
and Bill Gates Harvard students graduate so bright and intelligent person also who owned the Microsoft,
making deal with him to be a partner company wherein they may able share information each other and
collecting information and improving it by his own. Then Bill Gates betrayed Steve Jobs, and he lost his
work and everything that he have. Third story is about death. Death in a practical way of thinking, we are all
have a limitation here in this world but the bad/sad thing is we don’t know when and where is our last destination
or our calling, whether today, tomorrow and in the following days that we may go. So as the day pass by
Steve Jobs realized things about life that his journey may be about to an end in the near future, and he has
also has a diseased that may lead him to a death. He come to think and for him living the life to the fullest,
like thinking this is you last day so you should do the best you could as long as you live “Stay Hungry. Stay
Foolish.”
The next topic or discussion is about the SEED, S stands for Self-Mastery, E is for Environment Mastery,
E is for Enterprise Mastery and last one D is for Development. So first we discuss about S which is
Self-Mastery means it is all about your self and how you manage yourself as an individual in our society
and specially as a Technopreneurship in the near future. Self-Mastery is also about knowing yourself more,
you Love, Best, Irritant, Like, Dislike, Weakness and Strength for you to be able to know who you really
are. Love we must know on where field we are expect something that for you as individual you may
excel, Best is about more on and some kind a similar about Love but Best about in the field you we about
to select on what part or sub works or specific field you are expect that you able to impart your knowledge all about,
Irritant – Dislike and Weakness are all similarities they are focusing and identifying on what and where
are the factors that could affects us and tendency that the enemy may used against us as a business
person someday, and the most important things is to convert our weakness into Strength, we must learn to
love our weakness for us be strong at any situation physically, emotionally, psychologically and spiritually.
In this way or manner we may able to be build a strong foundation for us to have a success business
person someday and able to run a company well. Personal Traits, IQ, EQ, and AQ, IQ means Intelligence Quotient,
Emotional Quotient and AQ is Adversity Quotient. And we are so blinded and we thought that the most
important thing is IQ, but definitely it is wrong. The most important thing is the EQ which is the
Emotional Quotient wherein it is more dealing with, Business Strategies, Optimistic Mind Sets,
Communication and Plans but somehow IQ is also important but the thing is IQ is useless if the person or
the business man is Hopeless and not a Risks Takers.
Next is our Purpose in Life, yah to be honest and just to ponder to our self. What is the purpose of our life?
Is it just to live, survive and to die? Is it all like that? What is the meaning of all the things that we are doing?
Is it important or it is just a non-sense because if we are all die, our wealth, skills, talents and many,
many more can not be bound in heaven or in hell. Those are all useless in the end. So I come to think,
that the Purpose in our life is about to have a fellowship with GOD, worship, praise him and give glory and
honor to his name. So as long as we are here in this world we should do our best that can honor and
glory GOD. Doing thing in the very best in schools, works, family, friends, neighbor and all peoples surrounds
us. In that way GOD will rejoice to our things that we have done.
Stay hungry and be Foolish. Do not be contented of what you have now but always think and work something
that can make people’s life Change.
