extremely delicate condition that a person
super important that supports me
support in my career and a person without

primate astronaut in the movie 2001
Space Odyssey has 16 worldwide
attended a scene and that the men in
stage still primate of school discovers
in bone an attack tool
against rival tribes are not
terrified of the power tool for
that they hurt and kill with it
they play one is the bone to the sky and
suddenly the scene cuts the scene cuts through
spacecraft does not watch this movie
still a child and then watch
is often in adulthood but I
I confess I could not understand it
this jump is how it was that primate
for astronaut then curiously in the
2001 under the master
the teacher introduced me to the concept of
technology what is technology technology
is the philosophy of the ends of the purpose of
goals
then the whole story the whole process of
humanity and the reality of each
we can be explained how the trajectory
towards a cause and effect purpose
so I understood the scene
it’s totally clear that yes
the discovery of the tool by man
we would never have and the space was already
we would never have gotten to the technology
space
So it just opened my mind, I
I stayed, I was fascinated
so I started to analyze these things
inside my life because I think that in the
most of the time we do not have
understand how the decisions of the
moments they impact on our
reality they impact is in the life of
other people
so I started to do this analysis on
I did not know what the points were
the trajectories which were the paths
that they had brought here
So I bring three of them here to
share with you and bring these
because I know we’ll meet
in any one in any person
perhaps in the life of each of you and
I hope they can inspire you to
that you can overcome in your career
yours
The first point is to learn and I

illiterate of the sertão da paraíba
seeing that there was not much future right
For my family, my parents decided
live in another city and was living in
City of Hope aptly named

interior of the paraiba arriving there my father
a different life has been born and
as the Brazilian movement of
literacy
When I was four years old, he
He began to alphabetize me right with him
I had learned at Mobral so I
I learned to read before going to school
and discover the reading discovered
learning was a devastating
In my life I then read all the
books damaged the day off
obviously I did not even go there
municipal library I started reading
all the books I could
I read about children’s classics
birthdays physics and math
Clear astronomy and then learn right.
know that I can learn to know that the
learning is a continuous process and
know that I could learn any
thing is one of the things is a bone moment
that brought me here
second point of quality education
when I was 12 years old
My parents decided to change again then.
we lived in the big meadow in the years
80 had been years of great drought is the
life of different could no longer bear
it is financially our family that
now she had seven children being
I
the oldest one not arriving in campina

manufacture of sweet and savory and right
pastels, coxinhas dreams and people
he delivered these things essentially
in the canteens of the private
City

more or less at recess when
we arrived at the playtime of

Then I understood that I was not having the
same opportunities that were not right
I needed to have access to that.
a role a different destiny then yes
I started bothering my dad in the eighth

education but obviously to finance

back to the public school that was where the
people were studying but in some
moment my father managed to sensitize the
director of a super traditional school
of great pitch and managed to
help high school there but it’s more
had a tasty dish treats the deal
it was people who changed their dreams stuffed with
guava that we made for my dream
