Week 2 – BrainPhooning!
In a group, having similarities might be better but if all of you are the same, it won’t work well, it might cancel out yourselves together and both your strong and weak points will clash. Having unbalance mix and an overpowering dominance of monotone-ing attitudes leads to a major and epic failure, how? Well several problems won’t be needing only one solution for all, but a single problem can have different solutions. So having different kinds of thinking and point of views will make a fine tuning of a great band of productive and diverse persons towards greater opportunities.
Well, what am I in a group? I can consider myself as ambivert, but my personality test tells me I’m more of an introvert well, true enough. What can I do? How useful can I be in a group? I could also consider I am a moderate computer knowledgeable guy or simply a “techguy”, I know and also I like to edit both pictures and videos, I also ventured graphic arts in photoshop and experimenting stuffs I like, I tend to explore how far can a pc go and try several interesting software and stuffs, so eventually I learned the basic things about pc’s and my classmates always refers to me about computer problems, even though I’m almost self-taught about what I know and learned through curiosity. I also enjoy playing video games, especially simulation, role-playing-games and tactical oriented games, where I plan my approach towards a goal. I also like music and I know enough guitar playing and singing, to the point I want to compose but still didn’t work. I like reading interesting stuffs and my fingers are always restless and liked to do something always, like crafting something when I was young, and now, I got interested in machines and I like to learn more about it, and I really love cars and motorcycles, especially the unique ones, both vintage and sport types. I don’t really like being on social media, because I believe, being famous there doesn’t really define who you really are, maybe a little update about myself is enough for I still want my own privacy, I am not really fond of showing off that’s why, I just like to thank and be proud on what I could do. Interacting with other people? I could easily blend with their characters, and adjust accordingly, maybe that’s one of my strong points but can’t always maintain my aura when looked from the outside from a stranger, I maybe too serious looking and very strict vibe, well partly I am but half be-happy, have-fun and go-with-the-flow person. Having conversation with random person maybe a little hard for me yet but I’ll try my best to be more approachable one.
In a group, there should be at least an introvert and an extrovert, and there are also 3 types of person that should be acting as in a group, namely hackers: the techguy, more on computers, hustlers: the noisy one and the over confident in the group, and the hipsters: the guy in charge of designs and more on organization of the group. Well I could be versatile to these 3 types, but more on hackers and hipsters but lesser on hustlers. Our group, we are composed of four guys, namely; Aaron Guimare, I think he is more capable of being the hustler because he is more outgoing that the rest of us. Paulo Entice, I’m still unsure which would be best fit for him, but he’s the sporty guy in our group, maybe he could do the straining stuffs like going out and doing surveys and gathering data’s for he has more energy than us but goal oriented person. Kent Labis, like Paulo, he is also a sporty guy, both of them are in the same team playing volleyball, but he has a competitive attitude which could also his strong point. In our team, I think this would be enough but I think they will be thinking having me as the leader for I could multitask, It could be fine with me but, it might tire me out of all the task so maybe I’ll just divide the task accordingly as the manager of our team, it may not be good, but I’ll fix our places and functions accordingly to work well on our upcoming projects.
Brainphooning? Here in Philippines, typhoons are more well-known storm type, they are strong sometimes and very unpredictable. Aside from that, having a strong, conducive and imaginative approach of idealizations was meant for it. We point out our strong points first and cite and list down possible daily necessity problems. For me, since I drive both motorcycle and car, I cited out the traffic problems I’ve been facing ever since I started driving daily, Aaron then agrees as a co-road user and a vehicle driver, But both Paulo and Kent still trying to figure out possible problem but they only relate as a commuter and as a passenger of a public vehicle going through tough traffic. We cited also the possible causes and lapses on both drivers and the authorized managers of the road, gladly both Paulo and Kent can contribute an idea as a POV of the commuter and me and Aaron as the POV of drivers. We then give random possible solutions and improvements of each ideas, then we arrive to 4 ideas, and could possible combine it to a final solution. We are now getting ready for interviews to know what is really needed from the strangers POV. Hopefully we will get helpful response and information for further restructuring of solution.
