Love the bias towards action in this piece Baxter!

It's similar in Engineering as it is in Film. Having grades gives some step up but not as much as your personal projects (both successes & failures).

Baxter, such a thought provoking piece.

You are wise beyond your years and most definitely taking action in life.

Love this about you!

You offer a great perspective on the value of learning through action, vs learning to get a stamp on a sheet of paper. "Always be learning" is a characteristic of the new age, the Future of Work.

Great thinking! Agree on GPA. As someone who is in tech field, I never found GPA any useful wooo. Learning is the best when no objectives, like grades, are attached imho. Keep writing and sharing Baxter!
