Leadership, Entrepreneurship




Matt Story | 7/12/2020


Ruben Harris, CEO of Career Karma, learned to trust his struggle and that he shouldn't ever feel bad as long as he always gives his best. This approach helped him to break into the tech space and raise over $2M for Career Karma, where career transitioners are matched to job training programs to get tech jobs in 3 to 12 months. He recommends understanding your purpose then collecting the skills you need to achieve that purpose and spending each day going after it like nobody's business.Episode References:Breaking into Wall Street - https://breakingintowallstreet.com/Breaking into Startups Podcast - https://breakingintostartups.com/Zero to One by Peter Thiel - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18050143-zero-to-oneBlake Masters Class Notes - https://blakemasters.com/peter-thiels-cs183-startupAutobiography of Malcom X - https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/92057.The_Autobiography_of_Malcolm_XReforge Growth Loops - https://www.reforge.com/blog/growth-loops3 Stories Ruben would want to hear:1) Malcom X - https://www.malcolmx.com/biography/2) Chamath Palihapitiya - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamath_Palihapitiya3) Elon Musk - https://www.biography.com/business-figure/elon-muskConnect with Ruben at:Download Career Karma app (https://careerkarma.com/sign-up) and send Ruben messageTW: www.twitter.com/rubenharrisEmail: ruben@careerkarma.comLI: www.linkedin.com/in/rubenharris/IG: www.instagram.com/rubenharris
