🐻🚀 I learn a lot, by meeting Cornellians!! 2 important lessons are Scale and Duty!! Scale: a few years after graduating, I helped a Cornellian build a financial spreadsheet, he makes in 1 day what I would make in 10 years on salary, by stepping into his shoes for a few hours, I internalized the importance of scale
Duty: I met a Cornellian from a small Country, lots of wars, he could’ve easily stayed in America, but he felt a responsibility for the people at home, he returned to help stand up an institution
I can read books and learn the theory, but it’s in actually meeting a Cornellian, walking in their shoes for a few hours, I empathized and internalized the importance of it
meet more Cornellians!! come to the small gatherings in the NYC area!!
