Defining Moments
How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Society in general:
You shouldn't leave your current role and go to uncertainty far away from your home.
How I responded:
Follow your instinct and be decisive. It will strengthen your self-confidence. People who give you advice can be incompetent. In my case, many of them have never been ready to take a risk for something new in their life. Their opinion was not important to me.
Experiences and challenges that shaped me
I worked low-paying jobs believing that I'll get a chance. If you sometimes don't have a choice, do a job that you have to.
