What appeals to me about entrepreneurship? Since I have learned what the word meant I have wanted to be one. To me, it seems like one of the most successful statuses to have in the field of Business. I have had plenty of things throughout my life I have seriously wanted to consider pursuing, and to me it's like with being an Entrepreneur, you are able to multi-task projects and have the freedom within the field of choice to be the boss and be the one on top who determines the success or outcome, of what it was to begin with, that devoted you to create and postition yourself in it. Entreprenuers are passionate to what they are driven by, or to.
I feel like Entrepreneurs are people who know what they want, are highly driven. I'm not saying the most respectful or important, there are doctors and scientists who are completely driven towards a cause that are probably more important in most cases, but I'm thinking that those feilds are categories of their own in the proffesional feild. Being titled an Entrepreneur, I feel you have that achievement already and that once you have established that, you have the room to take the success to any level, depending how well your entrepreneurial skills are.

It seems like everyone I talk to has a business of their own in mind that would be their dream to one day create, or that they always wished they had. All people seem to be driven by their own ambitions, but seriously it comes down to having the Entrepreneur qualities in whether or not that the idea can seem possible to pursue. A business plan seems to be the most important step in the business creating process, cause in this process, you are seeing your idea unfold in front of you and it is becoming closer to the defining point. People seem to give up when considering the amounts of money it would take to create a business, forgetting there are legitimate ways of going about borrowing the money such as loans. To get to the business plan stage one must have real confidence and faith in the success of their idea's.

LIVE LIFE FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE or LIVE THE LIFE THAT YOU LOVE,
those are more like what I was trying to say.
What the guest speaker taught me tonight is that surely anxiety tends to take over when you have real important matters to manage, but that its the anxiety we get, that makes the task we are attempting or wanting to accomplish seem more difficult than it really is.
I learned from her, or the impression I especially got from her speech tonight was:
In the business she deals with , and she mentioned it, she has great passion for it, and that is one important factor in dealing with business. She also mentioned having patience, and just being prepared when introducing your business plan to possible investor's; to have a plan A,B and C in case of unexpectancies.
Lesson was clear. I thought she described everything well, and it gave me a better sense of what is needed to be expected for creating one. I'm interested to see the PowerPoint.

Chinese says stimulus plan important for the world:
I found this article attracted me because China is home to the largest cities in the world, and important for the world sounded like it had to be about something good.
I've always had an interest in knowing more about China's economy; between their mass population and mass of production. Everywhere you see on things 'Made in China' so if you know nothing about the Country you're at least going to assume that the Country has numerous factories, and that they do a lot of exporting.
The article talked about "analysts expect export growth to fall as low as zero in coming months as global demand weakens". They call it a global crisis which of course its obvious to see why, but I think it's something that was easily seen coming. To look at this crisis as just a bad thing is somewhat difficult for me. Bad, yes, for all the people who have families to support and rely on there jobs at these factories, but then it can only be looked at for the good in the sense that the less exporting and running of these factories, the less harm on the global economy in the long run.
It's a scary fact how common pollution is now, that the average human body carries 28 toxic chemicals on an average, and that when our bodies are polluted any more than they already are and can't adapt ,that that's when things like cancer start occurring. I think for sure the seriousness of these matters needs to be recognized and be taken more seriously by especially the large corporations whose factories gives off these mass amounts of toxins that are causes of these problems, but also individually I think everybody needs to think more serious about them..

For a First Nations women, as with all women, getting recognition and respect as a working women in business took time.
From the last class, I remember barriers being discussed at the very beginning of class and the lesson I learned from this situation is to try to get to class five minutes early and to have a notebook and pen out from the very start, because, I can't recall nor did I write down, the seven barriers. The notes I did take from that part was-'90% of women Entrepreneurs worked for someone before becoming an Entrepreneur, and 1/3 of people who are self employed are women. I'm not sure why I missed it all. I also tried getting help from a few classmates with this, and didn't get it.
A First Nation's women of business that I know personally, has struggled with such barriers as
having to stay at home with her kids while her husband left for his job weeks sometimes months at a time, leaving her no time for much of anything else. Having kids understandably takes all of a woman's time for the most part, until they are old enough for school which even then, the schedule still revolves around the children/child, causing setbacks to her profession. I remember hearing something about women are more insecure than men, therefore it could become a problem say at the time of an interview, not being able to show confidence or passion for that position when it is needed. Another barrier would be the probability of sexual harassment, within a workplace being towards women. Having worked so hard in school and then obtaining the desired position and then having to deal with something like that, would create a barrier, a discomfort that would likely make it hard to keep that position . I know that doesn't directly have to do with a First Nation's women in business, but that's the best i could do for this right now.

To be a professional, is to have proper training in a desired field and to take that position seriously. To make sure the job required is sought out. To have tasks to manage and to do the best of ability, to responsibly, handle and complete those tasks.
Yes, I myself am a professional in training. I am not a professional yet, but with the right training that is the goal I would like to achieve; obtain a professional position.
To be a professional I would say the most important trait to own is being responsible, but there are many other traits that are necessary, such as being motivated and driven to a cause.

Reading "Why is This Subject a Taboo?", really interested me. I love reading and hearing about these types of topics being discussed, like there are still people out there acknowledging these matters and working towards a fairness that everyone can agree upon.
Growing up in New Hampshire, I feel like these types of matters within the country, it had seemed from what my public schools had taught me up until atleast nineth grade, had been already locked down and that they were no longer a issue to be discussed. I can only speak for what I was taught in that state, and seeing how there are no native commnities in that state or anywhere close to it is hard for me to really say. I'm sure within the native communities in the U.S they are still working on righteousness, but other than that I don't see it really being acknowledged, but again, I don't know all about it. That's what I really appreciate about Canada, is that here the true history of the country respecftfully still maters, and is not just made excusable.
In the business aspect I see it as important, in the way that the issue is in better hopes of resolution, and gives natives a better sense of self respect in believing so, in that way they can be true to themselves and work towards what really matters, to them.
I really liked this article...

I have much appreciation that I have landed in a class like this, with most of the text being revolved around mostly Native people. I feel like I have been learning a little bit of History too.
I would like to leave from this class with a better understanding of what it would take for me to begin the process of running a business of my own. To be able to better point out the entrepreneur qualities in myself, and continue strengthening them.
I also would like to leave this class with the basic knowledge of entrepreneurship and remember all the primary keywords and the roles they play.

Personally it disappoints and frustrates me how the realities of history goes. For one dealing with the inconsideration of human beings is something that we all have to deal with even now. Why some people act so inhumane still boggles my mind. It's actually pretty sad to me. BUT, history as it goes, all adds up. Native people stand today, and are involved in many aspects of the business class, as well as everything else. For those people who stayed the strongest when it mattered the most is the reason we have managed to keep up with societies way, for the most part. I think about all the hurt and suffering going on all around me and there's no question to me why, just why history went as it did. I love the native culture, and am very proud to be who I am. I hope natives of all tribes continue to get educated in these matters, and continue to stand up for what matters.

Looking Forward...
I do realize how much work i need to do to improve my writing skills, vocabulary, and grammar, but, I'm working on them! The stories from Creating Meaning had me thinking heavy about some subjects, and it's made me realize that, I do have a somewhat difficult time letting my thoughts flow, and translating them onto paper.
I've realized I am strongly opinionated in certain subjects, and that I need more practice expressing those thoughts and feeling's in what I think could be in a better manner. Thank you Gail for your time and everything, I enjoyed these practices!!!!

I have been not able to keep up with my studies as much as I would like to, to be honest. This work I am doing requires constant, physical activty. When I am not working, I want to rest. I'd rather put my studies before anything at this point, but I just can't afford to not be working. So I am in a tough situation, and am trying to handle it to the best of my ability.
I was really disappointed about my last mark. I knew I hadn't gotten the full idea of the lesson, but kept up the best I could. Maybe it's just me but it seems that class went too fast. Class stays on my mind and I enjoy it. It's just my stamina obviously needs some strengthening.

Ola!
I am back!
I am feeling much better, my body rid the infection on its own so I didn't need antibiotics, just a minor nose spray for nasal irritations. I can work with that.
The weather was beautiful today! Nature worked its course it seemed a little late around here this year, but without a doubt, the insects are all back to business. All took their positions and are all right back on track. I had about, four or five, june bugs in the house yesterday. I squashed a tuney sized mosquito in my room earlier, the thing looked like the biggest mosquito I ever seen in my life. I don't even know how it thought to come through the inch crack I left opened in the window. That's funny...

I'm Back to Blog
It's time to make another entry.
I have had a cold and evidently my body isn't handling it to well. Looks like I'll have to go and get seen from a Doctor to hopefully get on some antibiotic's. Tiresome trying to fight a cold, and trying to keep up with everything. The only thing I can do to get better is to rest and give it time.
Soooooo, I have seen better days and don't want to drag this out too much.
I think back to, all the roads in my life that have got me where I am now, and I have so much to reflect on. I have experienced so much, in such a short period of time; I feel like my life has only just begun.

I'm Back to Blog
I didn't know we were going to continue using these one's for this class, so I didn't think to try to get on here last week and write.
Anyway....
I like the challenge of this class. I like the feeling of being back in class and applying myself. I like having to make time for this stuff and like the feeling of getting work done. Speaking of work; I have just started to work at the "farm" here on the res. again.
I stay busy, on my feet, nearly more than half the day. Right now we are handling fiddle heads; so non-stop it's cleaning, and then the process of blanching, and then weighing and packaging. The finished products look real nice and we hope to sell them to the grocery stores and we even had a proposal today from a Chef from Quebec City about buying them. It's something small to start out with. We have a strawberry patch a little over a half of an acre, and we will be harvesting those throughout the summer.
I started on this project the summer of '05 training for Organic Agriculture. The following summer is when the Band started its own Organic project. Last summer I was in Long Beach California in a Job Corps Program where I got Certified for Business Clerical, and now I'm back at "the farm".
I enjoy Agriculture and learning about plants and their properties. I love nature and being outdoors; Summer's my favorite.

Set in our ways
I think of people like my mom, whose not far from sixty; that didn't grow up with technology, barely; who doesn't thrust for newer electronics and gadget's; who could care less to have up-to-date stereos, or not that she wouldn't mind to have them but that she's just so behind in the game that she could sit and watch old video tapes over and over, and be satisfied.
It kills me sometimes because it doesn't make a difference to her what's out there , she knows what she knows and she's fine with using just that.
I was born the year CD's came out. I grew up listening and buying cassette tapes. My first CD was K7 that my sister bought for me for I think my 9th birthday and I still have it. It don't work but...I seem to want thing's faster. Too fast sometimes, that I get frustrated when thing's are moving slow and when I can't keep. I have to stop and remember, that, I'm accustomed to these things because of the way they were so conveniently there. That, not knowing the difference as a kid, I claimed to be the original way of thing's.
I just think it's funny that my mom, and I don't want to single her cause she's not the only one I've seen, will sit at the computer and have two or three things rollin' and be set - like Solitaire and Limewire while playing music-
and then there's me trying to do too many thing's at once that thing's crash or freeze on me because it seem's to be my drive is faster than my net's.

I was remembering, on one of my responses to a question from the Class Blog, I had made it seem like I completely disagreed on no paper in the class room. I think in my mind the thought seemed so futuristic to me that it scared me to picture it, but when I think about it now the idea is more comforting.
Researching for my presentation and realizing more in a sense of Business as a career, or just all in all, what the internet actually has to offer ;in a business setting;in a classroom setting; just doesn't stop surprising me.

Is the term 'technology' over generalized
Or is it just me? Overall I have always related the word to computer's. It's new to me that people refer to there clothes as technology. I can see the relation, but aren't we further ahead in times to generalize the word in that way? I can see it going both ways. I have been thinking a lot that words are not as meaningful now-a-days. I thought back to a time when I was a child and over hearing my mom and sister talk about 'dying' their hair. I remember thinking as my 5 or 6 year old self "Why would they be dieing their hair" as in like ,killing their hair. The confusion has scarred me for life{just joking) but I feel like throughout the years as the English vocabulary has grown, the strength, or meaningfulness of words grew less. Just another way to complex life and challenge the mind. That can be looked at as good or bad but I'm just thinking there are a lot of mixed up individuals and I think that it all stems back to the way you store the meaning of all the words you use in your head. The complexity of technology is like the complexity of our brains. I guess that's how I'll tie this up in relating this post to technology.

No technology on Sunday's...
That is a factor of the Orthodox Jewish religion. I'm not an expert about it or anything, but I did happen to see on more than one occasion group's of people of their religious affiliation on a Sunday practicing this.
My friend's whom I stayed with part of my time in Long Beach, California, filled me in with the info. I don't mean to affend anybody but the way they dressed was different. It was particularly men I seen, and children. The men wear their beards long, and a round shaped cap on their head. They stood out to me the first time I seen them which was usually in one area of Long Beach and I was curious so I asked my friend who they were. He told me Orthodox Jews and that it is against their religion to use technology on Sunday's.
So that's why there would be many of them riding their bikes, or walking during Sunday afternoon's. I wanted to hear all about it and he told me " Really! They don't use their stove's to cook, they won't watch T.V or use their computer's, they won't drive their cars or use, or do anything that has to do with technology."
I didn't have to much of an opinion about it at first , it's actually pretty respectfull when I think about it. I'm 23 and I grew up with technology as if it was a natural resource, but technolgy is definetely not.
It interested me to learn about this religious practice. To just take a break once a week and make the day all about family and living...naturally
- I'm sure there are a lot of people who would refuse.

There is so much to consider
Keeping up with technology is becoming like a sport. Just when it seems that you're aware of all the latest electronics or posibilites the health force has come up with you find out about more. Even with just models and upgrades. It's fun buying different things, but without enough money throughout the years there is definetely a big gap to now of all the things I swore I was going to get and never afforded it, but then something better in the same catagory would come out and then my aim would change. It's kina' fun. I still want a lot of those things I never got though.lol. Possibilites are never-ending!!

Career Opportunities
The ever advancing world of technology calls for different employment opportunities, that touch on so many different catagories. So I wonder if they are keeping up with training this generation.
I think of all the things that I wonder about, how it's done or being made, and then I wonder if there is already a younger generation trained to take over future positions. I mean enough to keep everything that has already been established involving technology, going. Obviously people who are interested in it further their education on it. I am just wondering about resourses
I guess.

Must have patience...
Refering to the class blog question "Are We Alone", and then trying to post my response to it made me think of this.
Sometimes I feel like my patience is being tested with the whole password deal.
I can't count and think back of how many times I was so so sure I was entering the right password over and over but then it wouldn't open the page for me and then I end up having to click the 'can't remember your password?' bar and have to create a new one. I get a little steamed up and then I laugh it off like "Is someone messing with me?"

Getting the hang of it
I bought a laptop in January 06'. I had to reboot it in March of 07' due to a virus it had got, I think I was hacked. Then this last December my adapter stopped charging it so I called Dell who I financed it from and they sent me new parts that were covered under the warranty.
So I'm up and running again, I just need to get a desk for myself so I can set up my printer to be able to print the assignments given me. I'll be able to keep up with the course much better.
Truly thinking of what technology does for me on a daily basis is more than I can explain. I feel it's a blessing to be from these times. Driving , listening to the stereo whether it be a CD or MP3 player, to come home and drink a chilled glass of juice, to sit down and be able to view all parts of the world and keep up with current events from where I used to live on the TV screen, to be able to get on the net and contact and keep in touch with old friends of mine, or to be able to shop on the computer. Technology is endless.
It has created a fast-paced society. Speaking on the teen-agers today, they've got things quick, and they get want they want faster. It takes a car, a cell-phone, and some cash. The fact you can have the internet, a camera, an MP3 player on your phone; games, pictures... possibilities seem endless.
But then again people take things for granted and forget what we as people are coming from.
I mean thinking to when I was sixteen and not realizing how far advanced in technology our world had become - you know, not considering the history of things or thinking back to generations before like my grandparents and their parents, I wasn't as great full for those things as I am now, now that I recognize the intelligence and dedication.

This is brand new to me
This is cool though. Yeah, I like this, this is interesting.
I can't remember exactly if we are supposed to post anything or if we are just to create this but I thought I would drop a line or two anyways. I can see how this would go though, I like it a lot.
