El futuro todavía no ha llegado | Cecília Bulle | TEDxEscola Concept Ribeirão Preto

En esta charla TEDx, Cecília Bulle, estudiante de octavo grado en la Escola Concept Ribeirão Preto, aborda la presión que sienten los jóvenes para definir su futuro a una edad temprana. Comparte una carta que escribió a su yo futuro a los diez años, en la que imaginaba una casa soñada, cuatro hijos y una carrera como ingeniera agrónoma, como su padre. Citando datos de la OCDE, señala que el 40 % de los jóvenes de 15 años no puede identificar la carrera que quiere seguir. La charla invita a aceptar la incertidumbre y a mantener la curiosidad.

• Presión temprana sobre los jóvenes para elegir carrera
• Una carta de la infancia y cómo cambian los planes
• Datos de la OCDE: el 40 % de los jóvenes de 15 años no sabe qué carrera quiere

In this TEDx presentation, Cecília Bulle addresses the pressure young people face to define their future at an early age, reflecting on the idea that our identities remain static throughout life. The speaker shares a letter she wrote to her future self at the age of ten, in which she imagined her dream home, having four children, and pursuing a career as an agricultural engineer, just like her father, to illustrate how the plans we make in childhood may not reflect the desires we develop later in life. She also presents data from the OECD showing that 40% of 15-year-olds cannot identify the career they intend to pursue. Bulle invites the audience to embrace uncertainty as a natural part of the process of discovery and growth, reminding us that the future does not need to be rigidly defined. The speaker emphasizes that the goal is not to predict exactly who we will become, but to remain curious throughout the journey, recalling John Lennon’s famous observation that life is what happens while we are busy making other plans.
