00:00:00.330 --> 00:00:02.790
Hi and welcome back to And You How Did You Make

00:00:02.790 --> 00:00:06.849
It? This is the recap. And today I will share

00:00:06.849 --> 00:00:09.990
with you 5 -6 takeaways from last week's episode

00:00:09.990 --> 00:00:14.849
with Laurence. First, Laurence will continuously

00:00:14.849 --> 00:00:18.929
invite you to try things. Why? Think about it

00:00:18.929 --> 00:00:23.089
2 seconds. Don't you feel like you will always

00:00:23.089 --> 00:00:25.870
regret the things that you don't do more than

00:00:25.870 --> 00:00:29.100
the things that you tried? And he does admit

00:00:29.100 --> 00:00:32.079
that it can be scary, that sometimes it's incredibly

00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:36.979
scary, but at least you will just move forward

00:00:36.979 --> 00:00:41.299
with no regrets. The second takeaway, which I

00:00:41.299 --> 00:00:44.960
think is incredibly important, is to find what

00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.700
learning style works for you. Lawrence was explaining

00:00:48.700 --> 00:00:52.619
to us that he did a better job at digesting everything

00:00:52.619 --> 00:00:56.840
from the classes and the courses by himself.

00:00:57.640 --> 00:01:01.259
on his own. So do put the extra effort if you

00:01:01.259 --> 00:01:04.540
need to watch a YouTube video to practicing again

00:01:04.540 --> 00:01:08.280
and again. I think it's all about trying to understand

00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:12.420
how are you able to truly grasp, understand,

00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:16.000
manage that class and how should you move forward

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.500
with any other class. And a great reminder as

00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:24.359
well within that is attending a class is not

00:01:24.359 --> 00:01:28.840
enough. The third takeaway is on hard skills,

00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:32.700
learning them as early as you can. If you don't

00:01:32.700 --> 00:01:35.760
know what hard skills are, do make research.

00:01:37.379 --> 00:01:40.319
Because from that episode, we do learn that when

00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:42.640
you learn the skills, you're just giving yourself

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:46.019
more freedom to change your path. Because other

00:01:46.019 --> 00:01:49.560
skills, which he refers to, can be learned on

00:01:49.560 --> 00:01:53.340
the job. And for the fourth takeaway here, I

00:01:53.340 --> 00:01:57.590
will quote Ernst. Your degree is only half of

00:01:57.590 --> 00:02:01.689
the story. What does he mean by that? Your patent

00:02:01.689 --> 00:02:06.390
job, your side projects, your volunteering, when

00:02:06.390 --> 00:02:09.650
you join student association, everything is helping

00:02:09.650 --> 00:02:13.129
you building further skills, knowledge, and everything

00:02:13.129 --> 00:02:15.710
that will help you choose the path that is made

00:02:15.710 --> 00:02:19.990
for you. And the fifth takeaway comes from the

00:02:19.990 --> 00:02:23.990
title of the episode. Confidence comes from doing.

00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:27.919
You should not wait for the confidence to come

00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:31.719
by. You have to start, and then gradually you'll

00:02:31.719 --> 00:02:34.979
be able to build that confidence. So every day

00:02:34.979 --> 00:02:37.759
when you show up, when you learn, when you fail,

00:02:37.939 --> 00:02:40.699
when you try again, you're building your confidence.

00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:45.780
You're learning. And the last one, which I think

00:02:45.780 --> 00:02:48.020
is kind of a takeaway, but at the same time a

00:02:48.020 --> 00:02:51.759
reflection I will invite you to have, is that...

00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:54.259
Your passion does not need to be your profession.

00:02:55.199 --> 00:02:58.419
What does it mean? Let's say you are absolutely

00:02:58.419 --> 00:03:01.960
obsessed with your class. You don't have to create

00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:05.979
a whole path around that class. You can keep

00:03:05.979 --> 00:03:09.300
your passions, love them, cherish them, and still

00:03:09.300 --> 00:03:13.520
choose a different professional path that leverages

00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.139
your strength, the learnings, and also adapted

00:03:17.139 --> 00:03:22.169
to our ever -changing realities. Thank you for

00:03:22.169 --> 00:03:25.030
listening and I can't wait to see you next week.
