My understanding of the concept 'career' is a pathway. It is an occupation. It is an employment. They are future plans, present plans and possibly past plans. Careers are life dedicated jobs. It can be anything you want it t be, but it all depends on your determination and educational purpose(s).
My understanding of kotahitanga? Kotahitanga to me is togetherness. It is how you work in a collective and how it impacts or effects you, your workspace, your mindset, your life, your well being, YOU. Kotahitanga to me is to stand as one, to work and operate as one. It means to come together as one to achieve every and all goals.
Rangatiratanga. Leadership. Governance.Ownership. Call it what you will, but to me? Rangatiratanga to me means that you act or take action for the better of not just you but for your surroundings. It means to take lead for the clueless or for the followers to follow.
These three concepts relate to our topic by showing us:
- What careers are, what they mean for us, how they impact our future etc.
- Kotahitanga relates to entrepreneurship by showing that you can be independently successful.
- Rangatiratanga relates to taking up the challenge of starting your own business for you, your whanau, your community etc.
I learned that no matter how long it takes or how far you've gone, you can always go further and achieve more. It takes a bit of motivation, determination, potential and even just a little starting step to first start your journey but it still takes time. I learned what the importance of putting yourself first means to the world. You grown, nurture, and live easier as selfish as it may sounds, you will always be there for yourself.
