UTEP Commencement speech

UTEP Commencement speech

Earlier this summer I poured my heart and soul into addressing the University of Texas El Paso students on their graduation day. This was a beautiful opportunity for my team and I to better connect with the UTEP community and inspire them to realize their dreams.

But preparing this speech was also an opportunity for my personal growth, which helped me realize how much of my time I was running on “automatic algorithms” and discover my ability to “hack them” to live the life I really want to live.

I hope any wisdom I acquired through this process will also Empower YOU.

And yes, because I believe in integrating all our passions into our work, the speech ends with an original song composed especially for you!

-Diego.

Amazing, Diego. Thanks for sharing - Going from default life to chosen life. I feel like you were speaking directly to me. "why blend in when you feel a mission to stand out" . Continue the mission. You are impacting more lives than you can imagine.
