On this week's episode of 1 Hour Intern I learn from education extraordinaire, a Sacred Heart teacher, Jake Moffat. Jake dives into how he bounced back from not making the U-16 US soccer team, getting into Stanford without technically graduating high school, and how he became a professional website designer with no coding or design experience. When it comes to decision making, there is nothing such as “bad” decisions: always follow your heart, and please, do bring your hiking footwear with you.

New episodes every Monday: www.1hourintern.com

The Power Points:

  • (01:13) - Students are much more than their grades: on the day-to-day life of an educator — “I’m not sure that being a teacher shapes my personality at all, I think my personality dictates that I’m a teacher.”
  • (06:17) - On Jake’s family dynamics, relationships, and how his parents’ divorce impacted his upbringing — “Who you are and how much of a decent human being you were… those expectations were always unquestionably high.”
  • (18:23) - Why rafting the Grand Canyon has more meaning than your unfulfilling job — “Don’t get tied to expectations of who you’re supposed to be, that keeps you from doing things that bring you joy.”
  • (21:30) - Shortcuts may lead to indifference — “I figured out how to do just about all of my school work at school. I played soccer maybe 25 hours a week, maybe more.”
  • (29:14) - How to snap out of being a conformist and unleash your true potential — “I committed to myself, I needed to know what I could do, what could happen if I did all the work and actually paid attention.”
  • (37:03) - Filling a college application with a purple pen and how saying “yes” will bring joy to your life — “I recognized that I wanted to spend time with people who said ‘yeah, I can do that’.”
  • (42:29) - Fake it ‘til you make it: Hopping on the Internet wagon as Denver’s first website designer — “At the time, it was writing HTML code and nobody in Denver knew how to do it, so I said, ‘Yeah, I make websites!’. I had never made a website in my life.”
  • (48:17) - The rejection of regret and why your decisions make you who you are — “I feel like some decisions may not always be right, but if you make them thoughtfully at the time, then they inform who you become.”
