AI Transcript:

I am 100 percent convinced that you can do whatever you want to do, if you keep on growing and if you keep on developing.  Let's take myself as an example, I worked on construction sites from 16 to 22, and completely redeveloped myself into a completely different world, and have worked until today in local positions and global positions and corporations around the world.

 And the driver of that was, I wanted to be a manager. I want to learn to lead. I wanted to impact the world differently than me working with my hands on a construction site. This was my personal driver and learning my way forward was the way to get to where I wanted to be. Learning enables you to take the big steps you want to do if you believe in yourself.
