20 Things I learned After Growing Up in San Miguel Acatán | David C. Baker | TEDxGuatemalaCity

He didn’t grow up with a business plan. He grew up in San Miguel Acatán, a small town in Guatemala where resourcefulness wasn’t optional—it was instinct.Later in life, he would become a consultant, an author, a founder, a mentor to executives and teams around the world. But the truths that shaped him most didn’t come from boardrooms or books. They came from the mountains of Guatemala. From family, from failure, from watching what happens when people take initiative—or don’t.Over the years, he began collecting those truths—not as theories, but as observations. Twenty lessons that kept showing up. About decisions, discipline, relationships, success, and the strange way life tends to teach you what matters—only after you need it.Today, he’s here to share those 20 lessons. Not just what he learned as an entrepreneur—but what he learned about being human, and about building something that lasts.Let’s begin. David C.
