Fileshare: Tulane University Commencement Speech, 2009
Give a listen to this commencement speech given at Tulane University’s 2009 graduation. Why? Because it’s about taking chances. It’s about being true to yourself…being who you are, no matter who that is. It’s about not knowing, trusting and leaps of faith. It’s about passion. It’s about fear, overcoming fear and embracing personal freedom. It’s about success and failure and success again. It’s about what we all do every day: we take chances. And if we don’t, it’s about why we should.
Live every minute of your life with intention and share a laugh whenever you can.
Congrats to the graduating classes of 2009 and the parents who believe in you.
