December Newsletter ❄️
Welcome to my Newsletter! I'm Carlos M.J. Sanchez, an innovator at The Knowledge Society, where I have the opportunity to develop my passions and work with an exceptional community that can potentially make a change in the world, and most importantly, investing & living in the present moment!
But, Carlos, since this is the end of an unforgettable year, can you tell me your thoughts, wisdom, music, etc.?
Of course, reader! After all, let’s make this newsletter unforgettable! 😉
What have I been living in this past month? 🤔
Pathcheck Consultant! 😷
For the past month, TKS gave us the opportunity to apply our knowledge and soft skills to use them to consult with a real company and solve problems! Our team worked for hours on building up our deck to present to PathCheck Foundation! TKS Virtual has been working with PathCheck, an open-sourced digital contact tracing platform, to reach 50% statewide adoption in either Louisiana or Minnesota with the release of their new exposure notification app. My team has been targeting Louisiana for the past month and we made it to the top 6 decks and presented to Vinay, Ramesh, and Sam!
5 A.M. Boss! 🌅
For the past month, I was placed in a team of 5 people, and our goal is to take a photo of ourselves each morning at 5 a.m. for the next month! But here’s the catch: There are points to be earned for every photo taken! The team who ends up with the most points wins TKS Merchandise (Sweet!)! And we won 1st place, so we get the merchandise! However, ever since I have been waking up at 5 a.m., my productivity has been skyrocketing: from developing my novelty wisdom, new articles, and developing an idea to get rid of space junk debris from outer space!
myBlueprint Advisor! 📘
I met up with Carlos Litonjua (I know, 2 Carlos’s hahaha) and tested their new digital platform to engage students for a productive environment. myBlueprint is creating an active and engaging learning environment for all students.
Student at Leaders Across The World!
Last month, I applied for a global activist program called Leaders Across The World (LATW for short)! LATW is a student-led organization dedicated to raising awareness on critical issues as well as providing a platform for students to share their ideas and enhance their leadership development through initiatives like our Virtual Exchange Program from January 3, 2021, to February 14, 2021. I will be participating in their month-long program to discuss social issues and network with business and community leaders. Can't wait for this to kick off next year!
Carlos, I love the progress you have made, but what have you written about or read in the past month?
👨🏽💻 Carlos’s Personal Updates 👨🏽💻
Well, readers, I wrote and published 10 articles in the past 2 weeks! I went on a mad dash to make progress on my Space Technologies Focus, and I ended up making a series on antimatter: “Chronicles of Antimatter!” and a video on code for one of my projects! Here are my Top 3 Favorite Articles of this month and my video! 🔥
Nice, Carlos! Do you have anyone you want to thank?
Personal Note ❄
I would like to thank the people who took me throughout this year. 2020 was the year where everything was disrupted, and nothing would be the same. But most importantly, I enjoy the holiday season! I am glad to have spent this time with my family. I learned so many things about their personality, their fears, etc.; something that has got me thinking about myself and who I side with. My family spent the holidays at home, playing games, going rock climbing, and video chatting with family and friends!
Secondly, I want to thank everyone in TKS! For many years, I struggled to find the community where I can be myself. I had the bad feeling when COVID-19 shocked the world by surprise, I would never be able to get back on the path. But all of you helped me chase my dreams once again!
Woah, Carlos! Do you have any wisdom/insights for the end of the year?
