А meeting with Alexei Talai

02 october 2023 — 12:02

On September 29, 2023, at the GrSMU, as part of the celebration of the 65th anniversary of the University’s foundation, a meeting was held with a member of the national Paralympic team, multiple World and European record holder, motivational speaker, philanthropist, and a legendary man – Alexei Talai.

Alexey told his life story, how he went through the most difficult stage for himself and it did not break him down, and how he started life from the scratch. Alexey Talai talked not only about himself but about abrupt turns of his fate, but also about many other things, which are important and essential. He gave good advice: you should not think only about yourself, but do something for the common good, for the Motherland and contribute to its prosperity.

The meeting participants were given the opportunity to ask questions to Alexey Talay, and then they talked about technologies and new discoveries.

Students who shared their thoughts about the meeting were particularly impressed by his life story and his courage. I was very impressed by what the man went through and how courageous he was, how he didn’t turn away from people, didn’t become embittered, how much willpower he had. It’s even hard to say: the feelings are overwhelming, and this will remain for more than a day.

The meeting with Alexey Talai was interesting for each of us; he is the best role model, an example of determination and willpower.
