Standing on the shoulders of giants | Austin Stanford | TEDxLakeTravisHigh

Austin Stanford discusses the importance of intentionally seeking out mentors while also being aware enough to learn from those who color our stories, whether intentionally or inadvertently, every day. Mentorship has impacted Austin's life in major ways. So major, he considers it wrong to sit on the free treasure of what mentorship is and hide it from people who need it. Mentors are a constant in his life and are a perpetual influence. Those who have corrected and directed his choices and experiences have helped shape not only who he is, but even the titles of the chapters of his life. Ultimately, he wants to become that to others. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Can anyone explain the shoulders of giants means we get help from someone to be a better version of ourselves?

[@spike8965]

We owe our success to the struggle and sacrifice of men and women much greater than ourselves. We hope to emulate the hero’s and legends that came before us so that we too may pave the way for our future and be the shoulders from which freedom peace and prosperity is achieved. Stay curios never lose hope. We the people.
