Fighting was a practiced routine for Lieutenant Ivan Castro. But
when a mortar round struck the rooftop of his sniper's post in
Iraq, he found himself in a battle more difficult than even he
could have imagined. The direct hit killed two other soldiers and
nearly claimed Castro's life as well. Mangled by shrapnel and badly
burned, Castro was medevac'd to Germany more dead than alive. His
lungs were collapsed. He couldn't hear. One eye had been blown out,
the nerve to the other severed. In the weeks and months that
followed, Castro would find that physical darkness was nothing
compared to the emotional darkness of loss and despair. Desperate
for a reason to live, he eventually fought his way back to health
through exercise and a single-minded goal: running a marathon. Once
he set his course, there was no stopping him. Stubborn to a point
that at times bordered on insanity, he managed not only to recover
but to return to active duty. Since 2007, he has run over two dozen
marathons, including the Boston Marathon in 2013, where he was one
of the runners diverted when the bombs exploded. Today, Castro he
helps prepare soldiers for combat, working exactly as if he were
"sighted." This frankly told account of his struggle through
adversity, the highs and lows and the always bumpy road in between,
is a story of hope and perseverance against the odds: an Unbroken
for the present generation.
La Crisis Economica que vive nuestro pais que se evidencia en la
falta de fuentes de trabajo conjuntamente con el avance vertiginoso
del conocimiento y la globalizacion implica que cada vez el mercado
demande profesionales mas eficientes, competitivos y
multidisciplinarios. En este sentido, los actuales y futuros
profesionales no deben estar esperanzados en emplearse en una
empresa sino que deben estar en condiciones de formar sus propias
empresas. De ahi la importancia de formar Abogados Emprendedores
que seran capaces de identificar oportunidades, analizar recursos y
evaluar ideas para implementar proyectos que se concreten en nuevos
negocios; e innovar o reinventar negocios existentes que se
encuentren en etapa de estabilizacion por lo que estara preparado
para trabajar en sus propias empresas juridicas y en areas
gerenciales de cualquier ambito.
