Featured Hot Take
Stumbling is hard. Failure is worse. But don’t worry! Paul McIntyer-Royston says it’s all going to work out in the end. Paul is one of Canada’s top fundraisers, having helped libraries, hospitals and even Canadian Olympians find gold.
We’re featuring this podcast across all five Nature Labs subjects. You might not like every course you take in school, but they are all related. By listening to this podcast, hopefully you’ll better understand why.
Reflection
- What dreams do you believe you need to stick with? Which ones should you let go?
- Do you think linking passion, skill and mission can help you realize a bigger, bolder dream?
- How could a mentor help you? Would they be able to advise how and when and if to act on a dream?
- How might you solicit feedback that actually helps? Do you know how to separate helpful help from unhelpful help?
- Check-in with yourself and your classmate next to you. How are you doing? This hasn’t been an easy class.
