In this short video, Tom Krieglstein recounts finishing a university program when several students approached him with questions about entrepreneurship, professional speaking, college success, and life. Despite an imminent flight, he pauses to answer them, explaining that he once was that student and that his own achievements—seven national speaking titles—were possible because he received mentorship from people ahead of him. He urges anyone who has progressed further in life to intentionally mentor and support those below them, passing on the grace he received.

Chapters

I just wrapped up a program at a university, and afterwards, several students came up to me to ask me a bunch of questions. Questions about entrepreneurship, questions about professional speaking, questions about life in general, college success. And even though I have a flight that I need to get to, I took the time to answer their questions. Why? Because I was that student. I mean, literally, I was. The only reason I'm where I'm at right now with seven national speaking titles is because I was able to ask people that were several steps ahead of me. And so if you are in a position that you got a little bit further in life, what I'm asking you is to take the time to mentor those people who are below you and give them the grace that people gave you.
