The story

Somewhere along the way, we were trained to believe that success meant following the script—school, degree, job, stability. But what if that script is broken?

I discovered this the hard way. The education system taught me to memorize rather than understand, to comply rather than question. It handed out easy A’s and participation trophies, removing the very challenges that could have helped me grow. Between standardized tests and cookie-cutter curricula, I forgot how to think for myself.

But here’s what I learned: everything you need is already out there. You just have to grab it. Self-education became my secret weapon, but first I had to break free from believing that learning stops after graduation.

It started with questioning instead of accepting. I had to unlearn habits that kept me stuck. I discovered that real growth comes from embracing failure, not avoiding it. That mastery isn’t about permission—it’s about persistence.

In my book “The Journey – I Wish I Knew This Before I Was 21,” I share these lessons that school never taught me. Because the moment you stop letting the system define you and start creating your own path, everything changes.

Ready to break free? Get the first two chapters and begin your journey. Your future isn’t meant to follow someone else’s script—it’s meant to be written by you.
