Ted Talk Reflection

There is still a lot I need to work on when it comes to making movies (short scenes) to show to the class and teacher. I had a lot of difficulty using iMovie and still very shy to record my self speaking to put into a movie to show the class.

This task was not as easy as I thought it was going to be. After watching many Ted Talks, it looked very easy to pick a topic and talk about it for the allotted amount of time. Weather that be five minutes or twenty five minutes. 

I noticed this task was not going to be easy when it came to picking a topic. I kept thinking what can I talk about for so many minutes with out getting bored or loosing interest in what I was talking about. 

Truthfully, the topic I picked I could not get as much as I wanted out of it. I picked the way the owner of patagonia runs his company and factories compared to others. I thought wow great idea. My parents own businesses and I could compare it, but in reality it was no where near as easy as I thought it was going to be. 

If I could do this all over again. I would definitely pick a different topic and making it a lot more interesting. As well as becoming more familiar with iMovie so I actually know what I am doing. 

Personal goals I am setting for my self by the end of the year after being assigned this project is, becoming more comfortable recording myself while I speak and presenting. Also becoming more comfortable speaking to the class.  

Ted talk paper

  When the word “work” comes to mind most people think, something they don’t want to do but have to in order to live; a place with a ton of rules, set hours, and sometimes miserable bosses.   What if you had a job that you looked forward to going to everyday? Not have counting down the hours till you leave and not have a week feel like a month.Now imagine a job that… you want to go to. Wake up in the morning and can not wait to get to work. A place where you enjoyed being. 

California is the home to Patagonia's factory where they make their products to ship around the country.  Here is where the employees make their own rules but make it a point to complete all the work has to be done.  

Yvon Chouinard, founder of patagonia published a book in 2005 about how to run a successful business. One of the points I agree with him most about is… don’t over complicate things. 

In California the employees of patagonia are allowed to do as he or she wishes during the work day. As long as he and she complete the amount of hours that must be worked that week. 

Personally I think this is an amazing skill more people should adopt when it comes to running a business. Too often we see companies running their business as if it is a factory. This then leads those who work in these types of places to tend to not enjoy working and just doing so to get along. So many people, especially factory workers are forced to work in such unstable environments just to get a paycheck. 

I believe if everyone ran their business like Yvon Chouinard, employees would feel more appreciated, willing to want to go to work everyday. Therefore this will lead to a more stable working environment and a place that people can connect rather than separated from one another.
