Introduction
The K to 12 Program is geared to provide individual ample time for mastery of
concepts and skills, and prepare graduates for tertiary education, middle-level
skills development, employment, and entrepreneurship. Mostly, the reality of
every training is focused on the production process of a certain product which
oftentimes failed to bring it to the next significant level .The development of a
specified production skill in Agri-Fishery Arts is not sufficient in fulfilling
everyone's dream to accumulate wealth and be financially stable. Students
should undertake and master business activities such as; offering and selling
of products and services to people and to the community, manage business
activities, and such activities are referred to as entrepreneurship.

community? Let us find out how?

What is It
WHAT STARTED BUSINESSES?
A popular adage that says, “Necessity is the mother of all inventions” simply
means that we develop technologies to produce something that will answer
mankind’s diverse needs. In the previous decades, we domesticated pigs to
meet the demands of every family when celebrating birthdays, weddings,
fiestas, etc... We did simply feed these animals with kitchen waste of which
have compromise the quality of meat produced from it. We failed to see the
value that most of the excess meat products from our household landed on
neighbors’ kitchens.
But nowadays pork has dramatically found its way to the top of consumers
list. Majority of the total population in the country demand for pork. This
transition helps paved the way to new technologies in hog raising which
results to mass production of quality swine meat in a short period of time.
Farm mechanization explains it all.
Many entrepreneurs engaged in farm machinery operation business like the
installation of automatic feeder that dispense hog feeds in a simultaneous
manner to a huge animal population in the farm thereby eliminating feeding
stress factor which affects much on “feed to meat” conversion, Cold storage
facilities that maintains the freshness of the meat after slaughter, machines
that would convert farm waste into reusable energy that maintains the
lighting, ventilation, and other related installations that can be found inside
and outside of the piggery houses.

WHAT MAKES UP A SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEUR?
Knowledge alone does not guarantee success in a business. Skills developed
can greatly help in the production process, but it is not an assurance to the
sustainability of the business as well. It takes right
attitude combined with adequate knowledge, competitive skills, and upheld
passion to make significant revenues, profit, and sustainability of the chosen
business.

Supply of raw materials is abundant in the locality. An accomplished

entrepreneur has so much to share with business enthusiasts like us. Many
were not born with a silver spoon meaning most of them came from poor
families. They have passion to produce and sell to an identified market or even
to serve target clients. These contributed to their success. Likewise, they
accumulated wealth because they possess characteristics, lifestyles, and skills,
suited to their chosen businesses.
CHARACTERISTICS OF SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS

6
Below is a set of characteristics common to entrepreneurs who excel in their
businesses:
Be someone who always feel positive in every
effort in order to achieve something.

confident ready to be started, assure yourself to overcome
risks and many other forms of business
constraints.

Self-control react immediately. Instead respond to the
situation in the most legal and beneficial ways.
3
4 Courageous Be a risk-taker with alternative courses of action
on hand. Business risks are always there
however, one’s readiness to face, reduce or
eliminate them depends on how brave you can
be.
5 Committed Sustain every effort you have started. Profit may
dwindle in the most unacceptable way but never
hesitate to invoke your right to persist and regain
lost glory.
6 Creative Do not stay inside the box which means go out
and
flaunt your potential to be effectively different.
Use
your imagination to create marketable ideas and
push it. If you think of potentially good ones, be

thought about it, too.
7 Well-defined Be precise in your principles or standards. Goals

enhancer. Success in business comes from your

skills making. Good decisions must be sensible and
culture-sensitive
12 Desire for Pay close attention to what the market generally

further
product or services development.

14 Ability to Bad experiences in business should never be

taken
learn from as traumatic. Options that supposedly had
past failures prevented those to happen must be noted and
archived. Benchmark on past experiences to know
which decision to take.

LIFESTYLE OF SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS

8
We often observe that entrepreneurs live a life different from that of an
ordinary citizen. They adapt to new lifestyles gradually and professionalize
every task embedded into it. They follow established standards and even
customize some to fit to the tasks particular to a business type. To sustain
business entrepreneurs, develop expertise in all tasks including constraints
and problem solution. Decision making is excellent.
Albarico, et.al, (2011) describes the characteristics of an entrepreneur as
follows.
A sense of It is one of the highest lifestyle considerations that
entrepreneurs must adopt. Although inspired by
freedom and
their freedom to lead and control all elements of
control the business, they must exercise care in choosing
the right course of actions and decisions to take.
Flexibility of Choosing their own time for work is a privilege of
entrepreneurs. This feature will allow them to
time
choose their most productive time.

Energy and Entrepreneurs are the greatest asset of their

businesses. A check and balance between the
stamina
actual accomplishment of tasks and physical and
mental work capacity must be established. Rest
and relaxation can help maintain health. Proper
stress management is also of primal importance.
Family support A family does not only serve as inspiration but also
as a group of people to oversee the welfare of
entrepreneurs. Suggestions and recommendations
of a family member must be carefully considered.
Professional Remember that seeking advice from specialist is
helpful in decision making process. There are
support
people more knowledgeable than us in a particular
area of expertise.

THE PERSONAL ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCIES (PECs) OF

SUCCESSFUL ENTREPRENEURS
There are two major reasons why many people fail in their attempt to do
entrepreneurial activities. First, people who are starting entrepreneurial
activities may only have insufficient experiences to address the problems
posed by the numerous external business constraints. Second, they lack
sufficient skills to lead the people and make the products and services
competitive in the market. Low profit of the business will create problem and

9
many more problems in the future. Thus, anyone who wants to succeed in a
business arena must be equipped with the different personal entrepreneurial
competencies or PECs, a set of skills that entrepreneurs must possess to take
control of the challenges in business. PECs are the key abilities of
entrepreneurs’ success in business.
PECs are clustered into three according to its area of application:
Achievement Cluster

success. It will separate an individual the rest of his/her competitors
