Engineering our Future

 “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams”

                                                                     – Eleanor Roosevelt

I’m Luis. I’m a 🌉 Bridge Engineer, 🎙️Podcaster, and 🚀 STEM advocate. I am passionate about helping others reach their goals as well as use my engineering skills to help communities in need all over the world

I started a 🎙️Podcast in March 2020 where I have been interviewing the leaders of our profession to learn what makes a successful engineer. I have been able to learn a lot from the guests and have some incredible guests lined up for the future. Make sure to check out the video version of the podcast on 📽️ YouTube.

On the 📚 Blog, I am writing from time to time about new things I have learned about, new principles I am exploring, and resources for students and other young engineers to help them in their careers.

Finally, if you enjoy learning new stuff, you should consider joining the 📧 Engineering our Future newsletter. I send a weekly (sometimes every other week) issue with some new things I am learning about, resources, thoughts, and a curated links to interesting books, articles, and podcasts I’ve enjoyed that week.

I am always open to new connections and speaking opportunities. I have spoken at conferences and other events about my research, experience with EWB, early career success, student transition to engineer, productivity, time management, family, and engineering, among others. If you need to get in touch with me, the best way is here

This week I talk to @stephlonard from @technicallymindedtalent who has an amazing story to tell. She is the funder of Technically Minded Talent to help other engineers find their passion. She recently receive the SHPE Excellence in Leadership Award from @SHPENational for her continued support to Hispanics in STEM.

I hope you enjoy this episode!
Goals are a great way to guide us to accomplish so Goals are a great way to guide us to accomplish something. I have used goals since I can remember. From setting goals when I was playing tennis to now that I work as an engineer. James Clear in the book Atomic Habits says "Goals are good for setting a direction, but systems are best for making progress" - So how can we create better systems that are going to help us achieve our goals?

Goals are about the results you want to achieve. Systems are about the processes that lead to those result so forget for a minute about the goals and focus on the systems to get to that goal. 

James Clear also helps us identify four problems why we do not achieve our goals. 

Problem #1: Winners and losers have the same goals

Problem #2: Achieving a goal is only a momentary change

Problem #3: Goals restrict your happiness

Problem #4: Goals are at odds with long-term progress

I hope this helped you rethink the way you set goals. 

Let me know what goals are you working towards this year!
Don’t let small obstacles stop you from achievin Don’t let small obstacles stop you from achieving your goals!
