Kristian Guevara @xtian_guevara
What do you want to be when you grow up?
Humble beginnings - The laptop story
Debunking the realities of School
People are active but don’t know where they’re headed Reality
#1
We’re not allowed to make mistakes Reality #2
Seminars can be misleading to your credentials Reality #3
College doesn’t teach how you to follow instructions but how
to solve problems Reality #4
A lot will graduate but only few will succeed Reality
#5
Earning the degree isn’'t the big reward but fulfillment of
your purpose Reality #6
People will chose to work for high salary or go
where their friends go only to be never happy with their life nor move forward with their career Reality #7
People are passive about their career Reality #8
Things you learn in college are only 20% of the
battl Reality #9
The only way to move forward is to never stop
learning Reality #10
Schools train us to become employees, not entrepreneurs creative thinkers
Grades are just numbers. NOT all deans listers and honors
students turn out to be successful. People who fail often succeed
Your college degree does not dictate your career
Don’t live up with somebody else’s dream but yourself
Know your purpose to live a successful career
Purpose-driven work vs Salary-driven work?
Time for you to create your own timeline!
None
