THINK BIG: Ruth Garcia-Corrales Inspires Entrepreneurs to Visualize a Greater Future
| During a powerful keynote delivered entirely in Spanish, Ruth Garcia-Corrales, Director of NEW-WBC, captivated attendees with a message that challenged entrepreneurs to think beyond the present and step boldly into their potential.Titled “Piensa en Grande: Tu Futuro Comienza Hoy” (Think Big: Your Future Starts Today), Ruth’s keynote guided participants through the process of visualizing not who they are now, but who they want to become—in one year, five years, and beyond. Ruth reminded the audience that growth starts with vision. “If you only focus on what you do now, you’ll stay where you are,” she said. “But if you make decisions based on who you want to be a year from now, your business—and your life—will expand in powerful ways.” She led attendees through an interactive visualization exercise, inviting them to imagine their ideal day as a future version of themselves: a more confident, successful entrepreneur with a clearer purpose and bigger goals. She also tackled common mental blocks like fear, comparison, and self-doubt, offering real strategies to shift from a scarcity mindset to one of intentional, abundant growth.Some of her most impactful messages included: “Your future deserves to be treated like a priority today.”“Dreams without a plan stay dreams. But dreams with action become reality.”“When you think bigger, you inspire others to do the same.” Ruth closed with a challenge: to write a letter to their future selves—dated one year from now—describing what they’ve built, who they’ve become, and how they feel living a life that once felt out of reach. The presentation left participants energized, hopeful, and ready to take bold action. It was a celebration not just of entrepreneurship, but of vision, courage, and the belief that the best is yet to come. |
