Facebook’s Libra co-creator and former president of PayPal, David Marcus and I chat about everything from his early years in Paris, his brief trajectory as an economist, and the boost of his career. David will also share his reflecting advice on how to find our purpose and place in the world, and it all starts with how we choose to spend our time. Authenticity is quite simple: you just have to listen and trust in yourself.

The Power Points:

(00:20) - The upbringing of a Parisian geek boy — “You have teachers that are more inspiring than others, and they tend to make you love the topic. For me it was math and physics, because I had two fascinating teachers.”
(02:18) - How to go through high-school and thrive despite the pressure — “To me, curiosity is the most important thing. Having a curious mind leads to very good places.”
(05:33) - A brief college experience, how to feel grateful towards tragedy, and finding the perfect ecosystem to start a career — “Economics was what I wanted to do because I was a geek, but I only stuck around for about a year.”
(10:18) - The hobbies and passions of a geek — “The understanding of the world, how it functions, the differences, perspectives and cultures out there, is a really big and important part of who I am.”
(11:35) - How to find your calling in life and find your place in the world — “You have to find what is broken in the world and could use your help getting fixed.”
(14:41) - The importance of balancing your schedule to achieve true happiness — “You should make sure you have enough time to enjoy your life too.”
