Project Starfish has opened my eyes to how resilient people can be. It is tempting for those who have been displaced by the conventional route to give up and continue on in doing their part-time jobs and say that it is enough for a living. However, the students at Starfish demonstrate a capacity to continue actualizing in their lives, which is inspirational.
Project Starfish has contributed to my goals of wanting to use technology to improve menial work. I believe that many administrative tasks should be automated nowadays to free up the time to do more meaningful things.
