On October 12, university students from Budapest gathered once again at the Opus Jazz Club of the Budapest Music Center to participate in a thought-provoking conversation organized by the S10 Academy.
Our guest of honor on this occasion was extreme athlete Gábor Rakonczay, a two-time Guinness World Record holder and multiple Hungarian record holder, who talked to us about the challenges he faces in his everyday life that are nevertheless extraordinary. He spoke about the unwavering perseverance, mental toughness, and deep outlook on life that have been essential to achieving his goals and preparing for them since his youth. Gábor enjoys sharing his thoughts with younger generations and has also been giving motivational lectures for years as part of his work.
“…on the one hand, it’s good to give back something that I gathered with great difficulty at the end of the world, in Antarctica, or in the middle of the ocean. On the other hand, I think my career would have started much faster and more decisively if I had also received such information back in the day…” – Gábor Rakonczay
We would like to thank Gábor Rakonczay for taking the time to be with us and making a pleasant evening even more colorful!
