In the intimate environment to which Warner has grown accustomed to, having facilitated at the event numerous times in the past, the Chaguanas-West MP, shared with the secondary school students, his life, from a little boy who walked to school and back every day, to being one of the most powerful men in football today.
“I grew up in a rural community in south Trinidad, in a single parent home with little extra to go around. But even then I knew I wanted to succeed, times may have changed but the formula to success remains the same, hard work, dedication and sacrifice are keys components to success,” Warner said. He challenged the youth to not only dream great dreams but initiate the follow up action which is necessary to ensure that dreams are not fleeting thoughts but they are destination points in life’s journey.
“I want to challenge you today; aim for the stars. Let us mark this day on our calendars. Where will you be in one year? What would you have learned? Would you be closer to your destination point?”
