Why teens, why teegu.io?

First, because it's part of my social mission to "give every teen the opportunity to realize their potential." Second, they tell me about the existing problem with career choice, which I understand well, because I experienced it also 10 years ago.

About social mission. I believe that young, happy talents could save this world. It's hard to change a formed mind, I mean an adult's. Moreover, when you try, you encounter many gaps in their understanding, and bridging these gaps is possible but takes years. In my opinion, we don't have that time.

We need to do the right things now, within a few years at most. The fastest way to achieve the best result is to provide opportunities to freshmen. Gen Z and Gen A are people who have a different mindset. They want to live in peace, in harmony with the environment, and not just be consumers; they want to be impactful for this planet.

But this is before they face real life challenges like bills, taxes, working for a living, costs for eating, and of course dealing with various unfair aspects of this system which each of us faces at different levels. And then all dreams, wishes, and nice thoughts are gone.

They will work in jobs that allow them to have money for living but hate it because it’s not what they were expecting when they chose their profession, career, and life path. Mortgages or student loans do not allow them to take a few years to start from scratch again. Of course, it’s not about everyone, but just consider that only 20-30% of people do something related to their field of study.

It means another 75% just wasted a few years of their student life, which is so important, because it's the foundation of real life. And in my opinion, this 75% have several times less chance to realize their potential, try to make their dreams a reality, and be happy enough to do something great, not just good or normal.

It's about how teenagers and then students feel when choosing a career path. I know how it is; I was there too. Everyone of us was there. And it would be great to have clear guides on how to manage it, something you could use anywhere and anytime you really want without masks and boring adult nonsense. Something that is clear and relevant to the current and future market. Moreover, if it looks like a game...

Yeah, it’s about teegu. I just want to give teens the opportunity to make the right choice by trying any career with clear guides on how to choose the best according to their true essence. And that's why this project is called teegu, because it’s a "teen guide."

Let’s change this world
