Future planning.

Kia ora, Today I will be describing what I've been learning in social studies. Our topic is future planning. Future planning is were we get given a variety of questions about what we want to be in 4 years time or What career pathway we wanna follow. And then the teacher gave us words that we needed to research the meaning too and examples of what it is. So I’ll be answering questions given in the blog.

• What is your understanding of Career?

It's what you're starting to think about doing after you graduate college. You stay in the same type of work until you retire. Career can be one or many jobs you could have in life. Career includes education, training and work experience.

• What is your understanding of enterprise?

The meaning I've resolved around the topic we are on future planning. Enterprise means to me that it's someone or a group of people that are starting to want and plan up a business.

• What is your understanding of Entrepreneur?

Entrepreneurship is someone that starts a small business to make some money for them. So from scratch for example if someone was to go downtown to sell donuts at 2 dollars each that's them being an entrepreneur that's someone that has Entrepreneurship inside them. To me, an Entrepreneur is someone that just wants to make money so they find a way to get money if it's doing chores for other people to sell goods, clothes and drinks downtown.

• How do these concepts relate to the topic?

If we wanted to learn how to make a small business for the future it would be enterprise and if you did make one but its not big yet it would be entrepreneurship. See they both relate to future planning because it's what we could use to get far in life. 

• How do you link this topic to outside factors?

Well I could get half of the things in the future as planned I’ve put down for my research project but I could also not get half of the things I put down. The difference between the topic and the outside factor is nothing is promised in life unless you work for it and man i'm only in year 10 i've got time to figure out my purpose in life.

• How did this topic challenge your thinking?

Well first off I didn't know what enterprise meant until I actually searched it up. And I knew what

entrepreneur meant because of personal reasons. But overall this was actually useful for when

I want to decide on what I want to do in the future. 

• How does your research project become an action plan for change?

Because were planning what we wanna be or what we wanna do for the future. So we started planning and researching what we wanted to do. Of course we were given more questions like hobbies, House, retirement, rent, what car we wanted, bills and if we wanted kids. All those questions were useful but I still didn't know if this is gonna be what I'm doing in the future or not. Anything can change at any time we just don’t know when.

• Conclude with your overall views on the topic?

My views of this topic are nothing but high. So i really enjoyed this topic, it opened my eyes to many possibilities and opportunities given to me. But I'm gonna play the long game so I'm just gonna enjoy life now while it's easy and not worry about all the responsibilities I gotta have in 4 years time.
