Life & Career Milestones
My path in life took a while to figure out
1.
I was fascinated by technology, solving puzzles was always exciting.
2.
Started my BSc during high-school. Challenging task, as I needed to "create" more time in a 24hrs day.
3.
Started to get up one hour earlier.
4.
Found my first job and discovered that failure is a major part of success.
5.
Started to fail more, this accelerated the things I learned which, in place, pushed me higher.
Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Parents:
You should not try to do too much as you will fail in all.
How I responded:
It's true that doing things simultaneously in the same time is not productive at all. But that's not a reason to lower the bar. You should aim higher, if it gets harder and there is more stress always use prioritization and strive for efficiency and results.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
My parents immigrated when I was 6, they were young and did not speak the local language, it made everything a lot harder. Seek for opportunities and work hard, be open.
