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.
