THE CEILING
CAN’T HOLD
US
JULIA GRACE
HEAD OF ENGINEERING @ TINDIE
@JEWELIA
Make the money,
don't let the money make you.
Change the game,
don't let the game change you.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
So how we going
to change the
game?
THROW OUT EVERYTHING YOU KNOW.
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WANT
TO BE “WHEN YOU GROW UP”
(AT LEAST AT THIS MOMENT).
STAY TRUE TO THAT.
RECRUITERS, THEY ARE NOT YOUR FRIENDS
DON’T PUT YOURSELF IN A BOX.
BESIDES, THE BOX IS PROBABLY
TOO SMALL FOR YOUR
AWESOMENESS!
THROW AWAY YOUR 1 MINUTE PITCH
DON’T COMPARE YOUR INSIDES
TO OTHER PEOPLE’S OUTSIDES.
SUPERWOMAN DOESN’T EXIST. IT’S OKAY.
DON’T APOLOGIZE AND DON’T
FEEL LIKE YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN
YOURSELF.
PLEASE DON’T BE “NICE”
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR
GREAT TECHNICAL SKILLS.
EXTRA CREDIT CAN HURT YOU
SUCCESS TAKES MANY FORMS.
YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE A
MANAGER TO GO FAR AND BE
“SUCCESSFUL”.
IF YOU LOVE YOGA, DON’T BECOME A YOGA
TEACHER
Haters gonna hate!
THERE ARE MORE HATERS THAN CHEERLEADERS.
IGNORE THE HATERS.
EMBRACE THE CHEERLEADERS.
A STRONG SENSE OF SELF-
AWARENESS.
THE ONE THING THAT IS MOST KEY
They say to be wise,
is to know what you don’t know.
Pitbull
Check me out, I’m an engineer.
A mathematician, technician and
a visioneer.
A scientist, the m**f** nerd!
The rebirth, the clue, f**what you
heard!
Will.i.am
BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE ADVICE
YOU TAKE. TALK IS CHEAP.
DON’T JUST BELIEVE ME
Thank You!
