Who’s good for maintenance and who’s not?
I personally don’t like to find myself maintaining on something. I definitely don’t want to figure it out especially if the thing is not to be maintained. For me it just make me feel like I am not that an effective person in achieving the real goal of what I am trying to accomplish. An example of which is when I became one of the Student Government Council during my high school days. In my personal experience, the service that I really want to give is true and clean. I just don’t know but the devotion that I have in serving the studentry over flourishing making me not to contain it anymore. I should rather say that it was not just only good for the first year of my service. It was also the same thing happened in my succeeding years of service. But the there is this one thing that changes, the projects which we organize and formulated for the good of our fellow students seems like devaluating. I could not say the exact words of describing it but, it seem like the passion and happiness of doing the project is totally vanished. So it also means that the quality of our offered services is already not of good value as before. I could still remember that if ever we will have our sessions what we always keep in mind is to keep track of last years report and eventually copy the same thing which we had, maintained it and eventually had came up not maintaining it but worst, failed it. As we go along what we had in mind is that it is somehow a burden and just a routine to go further. A simple this and that yet approaches to be like boring and tiring.
This I guess is the difference between the work and the project. The other refers to a cycle and a routine while the other one acts as temporary making it more vulnerable to changes and development. In this manner everything is just flowing and and continues to grow. In the Project Management, project is being defined as temporary endeavor undertaken to create a product, services, or result. So it does only means that having a project is an endeavor in order to produce a better and advance products. Work on the other hand also has its own unique definition and description. But the again, before we go along with the discussion, I believe that it would be better if we discussed it one by one, little by little.
Do you want to have work?
Who are looking for job vacancies? Who are those people who want to render a work? For so long now, it had been for a couple of months that we had been instructed to be an employer not as as employee. When ask about the question above, who would not want this right? To have a work is to have a living and nurture a family. But, we are to compare work to project. In the first paragraph, I had stated it there that in becoming a leader in a student council, thinking for a new project that will surely boom needs a lot of brains. It needed it that much since in the kind of project that a person or a group of individual who will use this must be well considerate of all the things that are needed to be considered. Basing again on my personal experience as a student leader, in accepting and thinking that what you are doing is a work, then most preferably, we will feel heavy and tired already. In thinking it as something that is just only to be accomplished since it has already the basic and normal routines that is being kept on and on.
Applause for Project
Now, another thing is said to be happening in each of our lives now is the gift of peace and freedom. We have given the opportunity to change and alter the things and norms that are already set in default. I believe that through the project, every one should now be careful and loving towards others. At this moment, may I now ask what are examples or few of the facts that makes up the characteristic of a project? Again as I was saying that project is just temporary and will always be changing. I could still remember that during our discussion in project management, it is being stressed the very simple and exact definition of what a real project is; it is temporary and is just partial. Basin on the Project management book of knowledge, temporary, means that every project has a definite beginning and a definite end. But again even though it is being stated as definite still it has to undergone some sort of changes along the making and implementation of the project. Another characteristic of a project is to have a unique product, services or results. As we can see, there are still individuals who would love to change for the future.
The difference between the two may seem to be vague. I should say that it comprises a wide variation and that what we can do is just apply unto which concept he or she will will acquire.
Now, if it ask me, is it suitable for me? Is it just for the project alone? But, I was wrong. Generally it teaches each person. It teaches us the important points in becoming who we are and that we should also be aware of this. As we all know, Project management consist of different works that has to be done. Included with it is the scope description, time management, cost management, quality management, human resource communications management and as well as both the risk and procurement management. I can say that it is relevant to me I a sense that in my life, I too have to deal with tine management. It should since it is all the same thing that we have and that the efficiency of the project that we have depends on the character that we possess. Time is very much valuable so that applying the concept of time management is important is indeed vital. Another factor talks more about the quality management. I don’t know if it would still connect to the kind of topic that we have but, quality management is really vital. In business, what if the work and the processing is fast but the quality of the product is being compromise? We know that at the end of it, it will just only us who will be get affected. Now, in me I could still say that it is relevant due to the fact that I have a love language of quality time. It is in this part where I came to a point of realization where through this, you could help in letting the bond strong and tight. Another thing that best aligned to quality management is the communications management. In me, how could I become part of a quality management team if in case I don’t know the things which are happening in the business? As well as life, how could I not be able to spend time chatting with a friend if in the very first place I don’t know how to speak and communicate with them? It is just like going into a battle where we do not have any armor to defend ourselves. And, the last factor or element which I though that I can relate to myself is that about the topic of accepting Risk. Yes, risk management. Such a team that would be included in this is surely of serene and calm personality. I believe that through this; in applying the concepts of risk management, we could be able to deal life in its smooth and peaceful way.
To sum it all, I would like to say it again that between project and work the difference comes only in one thing, and it is the capability of project to keep on changing for the enhancement of its own desired goal. Even though we can say that even a project has its objectives to follow, but then it is the good thing in project to have its modification and alteration which is also guided by their own objective. To justify this, may I all remind you that there is what we termed as Request changes in a project. I assume that it can enter in each of the templates that consists the project. Compared to work which I guess that can’t be altered because it is already designed and that its concepts and to do’s are so structured and keeps on repeating. That is, its model and the task is already built in. An example of this is the work of the doctor. They are designed to cure diseases and restore to health of their patients.
However there is still one thing that I see them in mutual and it is the virtue of making importance on the thing you are working for. It might sound rhetorical in my side, but then again I should say that even if they have this difference I always believe that there is still that common thing between them. Even though how static and how dynamic this certain concept is, it would still be of no sense and still would not succeed f not abided with passion and loving our own effort.
GOD BLESS US ALL
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!
