WEBVTT 00:00:00.430 --> 00:00:02.910 Hi and welcome back to a new How Did You Make 00:00:02.910 --> 00:00:05.809 It? I'm Yusra, your host, and today is recap 00:00:05.809 --> 00:00:08.589 day. So let's get you four takeaways from last 00:00:08.589 --> 00:00:12.070 week's episode with Ousmane. The first takeaway, 00:00:12.289 --> 00:00:15.789 and you've heard it hundreds of times now, just 00:00:15.789 --> 00:00:19.250 be curious. Ask yourself, how does it work like 00:00:19.250 --> 00:00:22.969 Ousmane has been doing it for decades now? From 00:00:22.969 --> 00:00:28.030 the youngest age, Ousmane has been inspired by 00:00:28.030 --> 00:00:31.679 his family. To learn how things work, how things 00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:35.939 were built, how can he fix things. So follow 00:00:35.939 --> 00:00:38.840 his lead right there. Things are consistently 00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:42.060 changing. And to keep up with all this change, 00:00:42.259 --> 00:00:44.579 you need to stay curious and empower yourself 00:00:44.579 --> 00:00:48.240 to find what makes sense for you. To learn more 00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:51.880 about. And you don't need to have things figured 00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:56.179 out. You need to be actively learning. That's 00:00:56.179 --> 00:01:01.890 all. Well. Do you remember the 2030 skills of 00:01:01.890 --> 00:01:05.650 tomorrow episode? We are talking about behaviors 00:01:05.650 --> 00:01:08.930 and skills and everything that you need to have 00:01:08.930 --> 00:01:12.409 in order to get ready for that time because everything 00:01:12.409 --> 00:01:16.390 is quite uncertain. Well, adaptability was one 00:01:16.390 --> 00:01:18.689 of them. And through the episode with Ousmane, 00:01:18.730 --> 00:01:22.409 we do realize that he needed to adapt himself. 00:01:22.849 --> 00:01:25.650 And it was one of the behaviors he needed to 00:01:25.650 --> 00:01:28.280 stick to. in order to jump from one country to 00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:30.680 another, to jump from one world to another, one 00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:33.359 space from another. So the second takeaway here 00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:37.319 is the goal is to learn and grow in whatever 00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:41.060 you're doing. So whether you need to change majors, 00:01:41.260 --> 00:01:46.120 change jobs, industries, this mindset, it will 00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.579 set you up for success in the long run. Another 00:01:49.579 --> 00:01:53.459 takeaway from the episode is look for role models. 00:01:55.049 --> 00:01:57.730 you can find inspiration from people who look 00:01:57.730 --> 00:02:00.349 like you. They either come from similar backgrounds 00:02:00.349 --> 00:02:03.310 or have faced challenges which are similar to 00:02:03.310 --> 00:02:07.790 yours or you feel connected to somehow. Role 00:02:07.790 --> 00:02:10.789 models are often the spark for self -belief. 00:02:11.129 --> 00:02:15.550 And the example we're referring to during the 00:02:15.550 --> 00:02:19.210 episode was just imagine seeing someone from 00:02:19.210 --> 00:02:22.009 your own country or community achieve greatness, 00:02:22.270 --> 00:02:27.060 like an Olympian. It can start something in you, 00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.500 the drive within you to push past your own limits. 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:35.120 And you can learn from them immensely. They will 00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.479 show you how they navigated their own path, the 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:41.759 challenges they faced and the successes as well. 00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:47.639 Lastly, in the continuity of self -belief, believe 00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:49.960 in your abilities and take action towards what 00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:53.080 interests you. In the episode, Ousmane reminds 00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:55.939 us that if no one believes in you, believe in 00:02:55.939 --> 00:02:59.400 yourself. Invest in yourself. Trust your potential. 00:02:59.780 --> 00:03:02.400 Whether you were in high school or early in your 00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:05.740 career, now is the time to build confidence in 00:03:05.740 --> 00:03:08.639 yourself. Don't wait for the perfect moment. 00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:11.400 Be proactive about your growth, about learning 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.900 new skills, and trust that you have what it takes 00:03:14.900 --> 00:03:19.719 to succeed. Hope you were as inspired as I am. 00:03:20.310 --> 00:03:22.310 Thank you for tuning in and I'll see you next 00:03:22.310 --> 00:03:24.069 week. And don't forget to subscribe.
