This video stood how to me a lot and it did make me think, what am I doing at blinn? But listening to this guy made me think a lot about what I am going to do with my future and how I am going to figure it out. But the biggest thing that stood out to me was when he said that when he had problem with the toilet and it blew up in his face and then his dad and his grandpa came and dug it all out and he said I want to be like them and he said he saw his first actual problem then. But what he said back was very interesting. He said “It doesn’t matter what you do, you think you want to do what I want to do, what you want to do is work in the way I am working”. It stood out because it doesn’t matter what you do but you will do it hard. But he didn’t like that way he liked the way of being a freelancer. Also when he fixed the toilet it reminded me when he said shovel-ready jobs at the end of the video because that is a shovel job and that is real hard work and you have to put your all into that. Also another quote he said was “Figure out a way to do it and figure out a way to love it”. That stood out because in reality you need to find a job you like and you have to love it if you want to have a good and fun career. He also talks about how much debt we are in and the trillion dollars in debt in schools we are in. Also he said we can’t figure out who is a good worker or not because we fall in love with one size fits all in education. And he said that a lot of people that graduated could be sitting on their couch at home because they are not qualified for jobs. And he was saying that many guys graduate at lower rates then women, go to college at lower rates and he said more women can reveal themselves more and the numbers are way different. And he was talking about physical labor jobs with people fixing roads and that ATM’s were taking jobs and other job opportunities with other situations and all the job opportunities available.
