Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.87,0:02:29.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And the third thing I had \Nas a goal when I was your age

Dialogue: 0,0:02:35.87,0:02:39.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And this might sound obvious to you, \Nbut when I think about it in hindsight,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.54,0:02:42.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my motivation for it \Nwasn't entirely selfless,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.14,0:03:18.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it doesn't matter, that's \Nabsolutely fine as a motivation,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:34.83,0:03:36.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And he made it into\NHarvard Business School,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.74,0:04:00.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So one of the goals I told you about\Nwas going to a top university.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.44,0:04:02.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So what did I do?
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.50,0:04:05.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Without overthinking it, I've found\Na list of top universities,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:29.44,0:04:31.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you didn't have to overthink it
Dialogue: 0,0:04:31.33,0:04:35.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,or prepare in a very serious manner\Nfor that direction or having said yes.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:35.31,0:04:40.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Same with MIT, the night before \Nthe SATs, the university examinations,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.74,0:04:45.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I actually sat with my friend Cathrine\Nand we were thinking:

Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.89,0:04:56.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we've realised:\N"OK, tomorrow's the entrance exam,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:59.04,0:05:02.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,That's what we did, and we realised \Nalso it's maths and English exam,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:05.06,0:05:07.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we went and got \Nthe dictionary out that night,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:15.29,0:05:17.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Anybody know what that is?
Dialogue: 0,0:05:17.03,0:05:19.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We were like, "Oh, dear Lord..."

Dialogue: 0,0:05:26.52,0:05:28.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But, I did get into MIT.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:34.05,0:05:36.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I actually got into\N12 top universities in the end,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:36.54,0:05:38.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I did it without overthinking it.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:38.52,0:05:40.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,What would it be to say:
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.03,0:05:42.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"No, I won't print out \Nthose applications forms

Dialogue: 0,0:05:45.06,0:05:48.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I didn't come up with the excuse:
Dialogue: 0,0:05:48.13,0:05:51.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,"Oh, I'm not good enough\Nfor any of that;" my teachers did, though.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:51.33,0:05:53.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,They told me:\N"You're never going to get into MIT."
Dialogue: 0,0:05:53.97,0:05:57.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I was like: "Well, what am I going \Nto lose from filling out this application?

Dialogue: 0,0:06:01.58,0:06:03.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it's often something \Nyou've done way before,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:06.06,0:06:08.19,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So maybe I didn't study for my SATs,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:08.19,0:06:10.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,maybe I didn't study for \Nmy Cambridge entrance exam,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:10.74,0:06:14.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but I had earlier listened at school,\NI have done my homework,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:14.72,0:06:17.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I even had extracurricular activities.

Dialogue: 0,0:06:20.12,0:06:22.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,My parents said Latin is a dead language,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:22.57,0:06:25.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so I was: "OK, I'll just go \Nto the math club then."
Dialogue: 0,0:06:25.87,0:06:30.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I went every singe week \Nto the math club as the only student.

Dialogue: 0,0:06:34.66,0:06:37.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But that probably helped me\Nlater on in life.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:39.50,0:06:43.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, third thing you need \Nis figuring out your character,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:47.40,0:06:49.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So you should do a test and find out,

Dialogue: 0,0:06:52.46,0:06:56.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,One of my character strengths is bravery.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:56.23,0:06:58.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So as I told you, if you have a direction,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:58.80,0:07:03.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you say yes to any opportunity \Nthat is along that way.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:03.79,0:07:07.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I also say yes to that direction \Nand any opportunity along that way
Dialogue: 0,0:07:07.63,0:07:08.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I'm brave.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:08.95,0:07:11.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, for example, politics \Nis not one of those things
Dialogue: 0,0:07:11.43,0:07:12.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I've been planning to do,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:12.92,0:07:14.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but when I was 15 years old
Dialogue: 0,0:07:14.57,0:07:18.32,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I saw a newspaper article \Nabout an EU politics event,

Dialogue: 0,0:07:21.49,0:07:25.35,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I turned up and little did I know\Nthe event was for only about 50 people,

Dialogue: 0,0:07:29.04,0:07:30.31,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I was in the lift,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:30.31,0:07:33.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,chit-chatting to the mayor \Nof Frankfurt, Petra Roth, at the time.
Dialogue: 0,0:07:35.19,0:07:36.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And it all went fine,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:36.94,0:07:39.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and when they asked me \Nwho was I representing, I said,

Dialogue: 0,0:07:44.94,0:07:46.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But it all went fine.

Dialogue: 0,0:07:53.79,0:07:55.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, on top of direction,
Dialogue: 0,0:07:56.62,0:08:01.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,chance and character, \Nyou also need investment.
