    In this personal presentation, Bogdan connects the dots between childhood dreams, curiosity and mentorship. He demonstrates that we are much more likely to find our passions and live full lives if we consistently question status quo, let go of self-limitations and ask others to guide us. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
