Entrepreneurship..

Entrepreneurship is the practice of starting new organizations or revitalizing mature organizations, particularly new businesses generally in response to identified opportunities.   
   
        ...an entrepreneur is the one who owns or manages a business. I know, being an entrepreneur is not easy but if someone has an interest to learn more about this, I know that he/she will be a good entrepreneur someday.
       When our teacher in TLE, Mrs. Catherine Ramos gave us some PEC's questionnaire, it is all about the 10 PEC's characteristics. But I don't know what are the meaning of each. So, I tried to understand all of it in order for me to answer it based on my understanding. And I also dreaming of being an entrepreneur someday to have an experience on how to manage a business and to stand on my own..


       Entrepreneurship was divided into three clusters namely: Achievement cluster, Planning cluster and Power cluster.
   
       Achievement cluster 
                 - the one who is needed by the entrepreneurs in order for them to have a job well done.
  1. Opportunity- seeking- an entrepreneur sees and acts on new business opportunities.
  2. Persistence- an entrepreneur does not gives up easily even if something is very difficult to do.
  3. Commitment to the work contract-an entrepreneur needs to have a commitment to the work that he/she has agreed to do.
  4. Risk- taking-an entrepreneur states a presence for situations that involve moderate risk.
  5. Demand for quality and efficiency- an entrepreneur needs to have a high standard performance because he/she is not satisfied with mediocre work.
Planning cluster
                 - the one who is needed by the entrepreneurs in order for them to have a good plan and basis to have a successful work.

  1. Goal- setting- an entrepreneur sets clear and specific short- and- long term objectives.
  2. Information- seeking- an entrepreneur seek information especially to the experts to have more improvements on their work.  
  3. Systematic Planning and Monitoring- an entrepreneur needs to plan and monitor his/her activities and performance to see if there is something development or progress.
        Power cluster
          - the one who is needed by the entrepreneurs in order for them to achieve what they want to do.
  1. Persuasion and Networking- an entrepreneur uses deliberate strategies to accomplish his/her business.
  2.   Self- confidence- an entrepreneur strongly believes on his/herself even if there are so many challenges to overcome, he/she believes that he can do it.

my dreams..

     . . . “Life is short”. . In this world, everyone has so many dreams in their life that they want to fulfill by their own work and perseverance whether they are poor or not. But when the time ends, if they enable to have another chance to do what they want to do?  .  .  Of course not!! . . So the significance of our life is to   spend our time in a responsible way.
        Now, here I am, dreaming of so many things that I want to do in my life in the future. I want to become a successful doctor to help not only my family but also the other people especially those who cannot afford to have a medical support and those who have nothing. And I want to become an adventurer and go to other places to discover new things and learn more about that. And because of that, I will have more ideas than before. Maybe I will help in solving some of our economic problems and others. And maybe because of that, I will become a scientist and I will be able to invent some things that will help us live better and happier than before.
        So now that I have already told that life is important to achieve your goals in life, it’s time for you to decide whether I’m right or not. By this, you will start thinking on how to have a good life and dreaming for another tomorrow. And this time, you should be able to learn on how to become a good and responsible person to be ready for the time that you should stand by yourself and face the challenge of future that are waiting for you.
