Game in the Brain

Process Engineering is not a valued skill in the Philippine industry outside of the BIGGEST and most hightech players like BPOs, MDC or MEGA or Japanese Run Manufacturing Plants. I feel like we’re the Savages with stone age tools, and these civilized people can be simply learned from and so much drama and EGO prevents us from just self improvement. 

Its a failure and weakness we do not hold Skill and Knowledge with any value. The terrible sentiment that many people do not See STUDYING, feedback, and monitoring as part of WORK is infuriating at the same time disheartening. I know its because we are distracted, tired, beaten, and in a terrible condition to be able to Study, Learn, and Thrive. I’m very grateful for the Allies, other departments who have competent personnel who have the humility to learn (and have no time to participate in the Posturing). I just wish I DONT NEED TO CONVINCE any key person of the value of studying and “PAPER WORK”. 

So right now the books you see me read is for Familiarization to Understanding. By understanding, I’m able to plan my Questions and Fact Finding. I cannot go into deeper levels of understanding until I have an excuse to practice it. Unless I will use it often its a skill I cannot maintain – thus I need to find it a daily use – even if it takes a little more time than normal. The only thing I can Practice and possibly MASTER is writing, planning, inquiry, and studying.

I’m an Arts Major who is inheriting a Manufacturing and Construction Company. I have no time to get an MBA as I busy either Studying, Writing (like now), taking care of my health, or Raising my family. Last time I played a game was waiting for the plane in SG when I had 2 hours of sleep and could not mentally function. Every cognitive capacity I have is in work or work related, or family. Last time I got to play with my airsoft team either online or for real is almost a year. I’m min maxing my Studying because I need to level up ASAP. 

We’re much better than a General Contractor, as in Cost of Quality Good. Why would a developer gamble tens of Millions to save 2-5% on the initial cost only to incur 10-20% more cost in the scale of costs.
