A revised and updated edition of the international bestseller
Inspiring readers all over the globe to reimagine their future, this revised and updated edition of What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20 features new material to complement the classic text.
Major life transitions such as leaving the protected environment of school or starting a new career can be daunting. It is scary to face a wall of choices, knowing that no one is going to tell us if we make the right decision. There is no clearly delineated path or recipe for success. Even figuring out how and where to start can be a challenge.
As head of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, Tina Seelig’s job is to guide her students as they make the difficult transition from the academic environment to the professional world—providing tangible skills and insights that will last a lifetime. Seelig is a wildly popular and award-winning teacher and in What I Wish I Knew When I Was 20 she shares with us what she offers her students –provocative stories, inspiring advice, and a big dose of humility and humor.
These pages are filled with captivating examples, from the classroom to the boardroom, of individuals defying expectations, challenging assumptions, and achieving unprecedented success. Seelig throws out the old rules and provides a new model for reaching our potential.  We discover how to have a healthy disregard for the impossible; how to recover from failure; and how most problems are remarkable opportunities in disguise.
What I Wish I Knew When I Was Twenty is a much-needed book for everyone looking to make their mark in the world.

Цитати

    Being fabulous comes in many flavors, but it all starts with removing the cap and being willing to reach for your true potential. This means going beyond minimum expectations and acknowledging that you are ultimately responsible for your actions and the resulting outcomes. Doing just 1 percent better each day leads to enormous positive results. Life isn’t a dress rehearsal, and you won’t always get a second chance to do your best
  • SengHak SengHakцитуєторік
    We live in a complex world and are deeply dependent upon others. Therefore, it is critically important to know how to work well with others, optimize your negotiations, extract the most from your teams, and make yourself easy to help. Each of these skills propels you forward while also helping those around you reach their objectives

    The idea is that you should pick the most talented person you can (the arrow) and then craft the job (the target) around what he or she does best. If you allow really talented people to do what they do best, then the results are astonishing. They’re fulfilled and, therefore, much more productive than if they were doing something that didn’t fit their talents or interests. The key is putting together a team with the right complement of skills.
