1. “All professions are occupations, but not all occupations are professions”. Do you agree with this saying? How is this saying shown in the movie?

For me, the saying is true and justified in every aspect. But, first and foremost to truly understand the concept of the two a distinction between profession and an occupation would be provided. A profession is a type of job wherein people are paid for what they know, we can also call this as a white collar job. These people have attained a high degree of education and works on well-known

If only they had the money to support all the needs they have then maybe their family would have stay stronger. Hence, also we can say that hi they lack trust with each other.

4. These are good quotes from the movie: Chris Gardner: Hey, don’t ever let somebody tell you...You can’t do something. Not even me. .. You got a dream... You got to protect it. People can’t do something themselves, they want to tell you that you can’t do it. If you want something, go get it. Period.” What do you think is the meaning of these quotes to you as a future professional? What particular scene of the movie were the quotes said?

For me this quote is very powerful. For me it also simply means that you should never give up your dreams and aspiration, whatever it is you should not let anyone break it or stop you from doing the things which will make you happy. As a future professional living by this quote can save not only my future but also the future of those who depends on

This will enable us to help ease the ill nation that we have in the present. Just like in the movie, Chris Garnder has invented a density bone scanner which serves as his source of income. However, despite of the innovative and creative product he has, the consumers won’t buy all the things he say for they taught that it is costly and inefficient. Likewise, the lesson derived from this scenario can be connected to two words such as necessity and invention. It is very evident in us Filipinos the creativity in our blood which is marked with inventors arise in the country. However, we tend to ignore it because of we are too cozy on what we have in the present not minding all the problems left in us. This is why new inventions are hardly accepted due to our mindset and our belief. Moreover, the moral lesson linked to this situation is that we should always think on how to make can I make it better? As a Lasallian engineer, we should always think on how to make it better despite of the trials for it will make us even wiser and
