Do it like you’re
40 yearsin the future!
Not what I meant!
Not what I meant!
This talk is about Decisions
Not what I meant!
Life after college?
Not what I meant!Job? Where? Portugal? Big Corp?
International? Startup? PhD? Independence? Freelance?
Money? Responsibility?Make a difference?Ambition? Family?Save the world?
Am I normal?Good life?Confort?
F***!
What will I do?
Who will I be!
Who will I be!
‘Who I am’ is a (very) complex and ever changing equation.
But, in the end, it’s mostly what we do (or don’t do),
our decisions
This is me,trying to make a decision
How to untangle the spaghetti?
Hear others,
decide for yourself
#1
Follow your heart,
always be better
#2
It’s always possible to change(don’t be a coherency corpse)
#3
Do it like you’re 40 yearsin the future
#4
More simply, if spaghetti
then always ask yourself:
If I was x+40 years from now,
what would I like to have
decided (and done)
now?
Well, that’s pretty much it.
Simple, eh?
