Group 15 – Reflection paper

I learned a lot from this webinar, not only about entrepreneurship, supply and
value chain, but also about how to make our ambitions and fantasies come true. And I
recognized that in order for things to work, it would take more than just me to do it.
But, of course, with the assistance of others around me. It is said that the greatest
way to forecast the future is to make it. And that fits the definition of
entrepreneurship, which refers to a person who has a business concept and plans to
put it into action. We can't move forward in our life if all we do is fantasize about
something or imagine something without taking effort to make it happen. They stated
earlier in the webinar that "no man is an island," implying that no one is fully self-
sufficient and that a person will always require the company, assistance, and comfort
of others in order to thrive. As previously stated, being an entrepreneur contains a
number of beneficial attributes, like hard work, confidence, leadership, risk-taking,
and, most importantly, integrity. And we must apply this not only to entrepreneurship
but also to our daily lives. And I believe that these qualities will not only lead to
commercial success, but also to personal success. In addition, I was motivated by the
speakers comment, "If you don't have great aspirations and objectives, you'll wind up
working for someone who does," which she expressed during the webinar. Although
working for someone is not bad if the work is good, it is much better if you are the one
in charge or the boss. Because I admit that I once fantasized about owning a business.
And, after attending this webinar and learning that there are cooperatives prepared to
assist and encourage all entrepreneurs, my goal came true. And rest assured, I will do
everything in my power to graduate and make my parents pleased. And to make
amends for all of their sacrifices on our behalf. Overall, I've learnt that
entrepreneurship not only produces new businesses, but it also offers opportunities
for you and others. Because as you pursue your aspirations and goals, you are also
assisting others in becoming more self-sufficient. Being a part of the entrepreneurship
community will also allow you to improve your living standards. Furthermore, because
we live in a period that is full of innovation and advances, It is much better if we can
contribute to society in some way.

Reflection Paper: Webinar on Entrepreneurship

and Basic of Supply and Value Chain for Cooperatives

They say the best thing to predict the future is to create it.And that suits the meaning of
entrepreneurship as it refers to an individual who has an idea and intends to execute
that idea. Just like in our lives we all can’t move forward if we only dream of something
or imagine something without making an action to make it happen.

Upon attending this webinar I have learned a lot of things not only about
entrepreneurship, supply and value chain but more on how to make our dreams and
imaginations do come true. And I had realized that to make things work, it is not just
only me whose going to work for it. But also of course with the help of people around
me. Just like what Dr. Edmund Chris Acosido said earlier on the webinar ‘no man in an
island’ meaning no one is truly self-sufficient and there will always come a time that a
person will be needing someone’s company, help, and comfort in order to thrive.As
what they have discussed earlier, being an entrepreneur possesses several positive
characteristics such as hard work, confidence, leadership, risk taker and most
importantly integrity. And we must not only apply this on entrepreneurship but also in
our life. And I believe this characteristics will not only lead us to success in business but
also success as a person.

In addition, I am also inspired on the quote ‘If you don’t have big dreams and goals,
you’ll end up working for someone that has’ that has been shared by Ma’am Corazon
during the webinar. Although it is not bad to work for someone as long as the work is
good but it is much better if you are the one who has control or the boss. Because I
admit that I once dreamt of being an owner of a business. And upon attending this
webinar and knowing that there are cooperatives whose willing to help and support all
entrepreneurs, that dream of me became alive. And for know I will do my best in order
to graduate to make my parents proud. And in order to repay all their sacrifices for us.

All in all, I have learned that entrepreneurship does not only creates new business, it
also builds opportunity not only for you but also for others. Because as you build your
dreams and goals, you are also helping others to be sustainable. Being part of
entrepreneurship will also help you to have a better standards of living. Furthermore, it
also helps to drive changes with innovation since we are living in a generation that’s
full of innovation an improvements, much better if we have something to contribute to
the society.

The One Stop Agribusiness Center it offers services and assistance to investors,
producers, to facilitate access to market/price information, technical services,
agribusiness opportunities and direct links with private sector/institution, LGUs and
other government agencies.. In going to this webinar/zoom meeting I’ve learned a lot to
continuously battle for your future and never allow up to attain all your dreams. The
word that marks on me to realize that I can also help with my individual young
individuals is the word of one speaker which is If you don’t have big dreams and goals,
You’ll end up working for someone that does, Because if you dream it is not important if
it is big or not You have to make it as your guide, motivation and inspiration to do all
your best everytime so that you can achieve what you’re dreaming of. We can also help
by sharing them what we learn in this webinar so that they will also enlightened. And to
make our future better we can give importance first on our study even though where
struggling sometimes. Maybe learning can be a lifelong process that enhances our
understanding of the world and improves the quality of our life But we all know that if
you have patients in your study At the end of it, there’s a good outcomes that are waiting
for you or there are many good opportunities that are waiting for us to grab.We all know
that millennials now a days are identified as complaining a lot with self-entitlement,
effectively bored, tech sharp, jumping from one work to another, hungry to travel and
easily not contented, either in the role gives or salary level. It is important for us young
people/millenials to practice to feel satisfaction (on everything we accomplish in life and
things we have), self confidence, and being thankful (on our life, in what we have, in our
work, in our compensation that we receive, people that surround us, and to the
environment that we belong). As a graduated student and soon to be working I’ve
learned in this webinar that I should mold and practice to my state of mind and abilities
to be able to manage other people conjointly to have a better work environment. Lastly,
to have self awareness and compassion to be able to get it ourselves and being able to
feel for other individuals as in the event that their encounters were happening to you.
Since it doesn’t cruel that we are right, they are wrong. Perhaps we fair haven’t seen life
as we see and perhaps we fair haven’t encountered the life that they have experienced.
And you should moreover have the assertiveness and poise abilities so that you just can
stand up for yourself and for other individuals, and stay calm indeed within the confront
considerable provocation.

Every one of us is unique in our own way, with different beliefs, knowledge, ideas, and

attitudes. Choosing to have an entrepreneurial mindset can be advantageous for yourself

because our attitude toward the challenges ahead of us will determine how we will

overcome them.

Being an entrepreneur requires a lot of hard work and perseverance, but you also need to

be brave and strong to get through all of the problems and discouragement that will come

your way when you first start out. Our country is still facing economic challenges, which

is why entrepreneurship is important, but it is only one path to economic growth.

Economic development must be achieved; we require strong Filipinos to innovate and

grow our economy in order to improve the quality of life in our country. To make things

happen, we will need natural resources, human resources, capital formation, and

technology. Many well-known entrepreneurs, such as Henry Sy and Jeff Bezos, have

established and grown their own businesses. These are the people we should look up to in

order to be motivated and inspired to work harder and become a successful entrepreneur

someday.
I also learned about the four Ps of marketing after watching the webinar: price, product,

place, and promotion. These four p's are critical to understand if you want to build a

product and effectively sell it to the market. Marketing your own product is difficult and

expensive, especially nowadays, when advertisements are popular and celebrities are paid

to promote products.

Always remember to work hard, never give up, and approach financial and business

decisions with an entrepreneurial mindset. Explore more to generate new ideas for

innovation, and never stop learning. Believe in yourself and your ability to succeed as an

entrepreneur.

“ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND BASICS OF SUPPLY AND VALUE CHAIN FOR

COOPERATIVES “

The webinar on the Entrepreneurship and basics of supply and value chain for cooperatives, organized by
Cooperatives Development Authority (CDA) Region 1 office in partnership with the Department of Trade
and Industry (DTI). it was held today September 24, 2021 started from 9am and ended to 12nn in the
afternoon. The webinar started later than the said time in the invitation link, we had attendance via
Google form as a proof that we truly attended the said webinar. As a graduating student, I am grateful
that I have joined this kind of webinar where the discussion is very clear and knowledgeable, I really
learned a lot. We all know that it has a huge difference between attending a webinar in this time of
pandemic unlike before when were allowed to have face to face seminars but this pandemic will never be
a hindrance for us to learn. Instead, we are very thankful despite in this pandemic there still Cooperatives
that is willing to conduct a seminars via online platform, which it is very helpful to us students because it
is very convenient to listen and to learn a lot of Experiences from them since it was held via Zoom
Platform. This webinar taught me a lot of lessons and realizations to take this events seriously. Many
things have been discussed through the help of Ms. Helena Roxanne A. Indigne, a student from Ateneo
De Manila University (ADMU). She Clearly discussed their platforms for their dear students which is
about the "Formation Program" which is the main goal was to raise the awareness of the students to the
reality of poverty and fosters solidarity action advocacy work, Utilizes service learning as a pedagogical
strategy across various academic discipline, and serves as a pedagogical link of the Loyola schools to
marginal communities. To develop future leaders who have critical consciousness and the heart for the
marginalized and live a life of faith that does justice. She also tells important words for the office of
concern and involvement which is To Love, To take a risk and To Liberate. In which these three has a big
role in their advocacy. First, To Love because in order to become united with the community you should
develop your relationship with other people and to connect with them. She also tackled the OSCI’s
formation program under their new curriculum. The First one, was entitled “Binhi” she said that it was
their term for the freshmen enrolled under their curriculum it only focuses on the social formation of the
students awareness of what’s going to happen to their surroundings. This also help students to socialize
with their fellow classmates. The second was entitled “Punla” she said that it was their term for the 2 nd
year students wherein, the goal here was to deepen the relationship of the with their community. To
further expand children’s thoughts regarding each other’s experiences, and The Last and definitely not the
least was entitled “ bigkis”she said that it was their term for the third year students. Wherein, she
discussed that you can’t say To Love, To take a risk and To Liberate without taking actions, you need to
take action first in order to do all that. For me, I truly agree that if everyone isn’t trying to do anything
there really is nothing to happen and there will be no unity without taking action.
