This speech is going to be very personal to me because I want to talk about my brother, who is two years older than me, and I consider him a successful businessman. I've known him for 23 years now. It was a lifelong journey, and he is someone who has the strength to continue working even when facing hard times and challenges. Because of his powerful resilience, he became very successful, especially in my eyes, as I saw him studying at university. He struggled with his career choices, reconsidered all his decisions, and decided to start his business producing courses and startups that people from all over the world can participate in to learn something new—something that may not be directly related to their careers or perhaps is relatable if they want to grow in this field. I think that's all.
