Rosa L. Antonini
Software Engineer turned Altruistic Author
The dynamic Rosa L. Antonini is, first and foremost, a Problem Solver! “I’m very passionate about finding and building solutions. In my mind, I truly believe anything is possible. Every time I hear or see a challenge, my mind starts activating images with different possibilities. This happens not only in the technical arena as a Data Architect and Software Engineer, but also on the personal side. Believing that it is only a matter of time to find the proper solution will give you the energy to continue even when you are exhausted,” she says.
US based Rosa is a software engineer turned author, who helps others find purpose, happiness, and self-fulfillment through her writing. Words, after all, have the power to inspire and motivate others to do things they never imagined they could. “A fulfilled person will never harm anyone else and will help others thrive. The more happy and satisfied people we have in the world, the better humanity’s future will be,” she adds.
Rosa has a profound belief that we can make this world a better place. Especially by helping young adults learn a skill which enables them to attain good-paying jobs, creating a high probability of breaking the cycle of poverty. With her book – ‘The Zero-Sum Game of You’, Rosa focuses on helping others build their strength and success. With funds from the book, she also sponsors training programs to help young adults in financial need to learn usable skills.
She goes on to explain: “I have learned to use anything available as a resource; even pain, disappointment, anger, and loss. It’s easy to take the simple path and use financial and emotional lacks as an excuse for misfortune. You need to build resilience and forge ahead to improve the chances for success. I learned that all struggles are not a punishment sent by a higher power; instead, we need to take responsibility for the outcome we are getting and make changes accordingly. Your life can only be yours; keep your eyes on your target.”
It couldn’t have been easy to manage a high profile job with a passion such as writing. How did Rosa overcome the obstacles? She answers: “My career as a software engineer has been an easier path because if you keep yourself up-to-date and keep learning and adding value to others, there are always many opportunities to choose from.
As a new author with a big mission to help others, the challenges are greater and more complex. There is so much noise in the media, news, and other sources of information that you need to fight through many channels to build credibility, reach the right audience, and be noticed.
I believe there is luck as long as you do all that is humanly possible to get your goal. With continuous effort and resilience, you will eventually find the right person or solution for any problem you may have or be able to implement an idea or solution that you are very passionate about. At this point, it may look to others that you are a lucky person, but only you know how much effort, tears, and frustration have been part of that ‘lucky’ event.”
Rosa is also vocal about learning to say ‘NO’, and to separate oneself from toxic people. Being a people pleaser is energy-consuming and overwhelming, she says, adding, “Unfortunately, I learned this lesson the hard way and through a lot of emotional pain. Now I look back and understand why the pain was necessary to overcome it.”
This grit and perseverance has seen Rosa bestowed with innumerable global honours, the most recent of which was ‘Leaders to look up to in 2022’ by Passion Vista magazine. She has various other titles and certifications at work, but those hold little relevance in comparison to her book and her ‘Wonders of My World’ program. “Recently, I received a precious award in the form of a letter by a student telling me how she does not see hunger in her family anymore, thanks to the skills which she acquired in my program,” says Rosa with pride.
It is such individuals lacking basic human needs who inspire Rosa in myriad ways. She shares, “I have so many memories of beautiful people who either died too young because of lack of medical attention, were too skinny due to lack of food, or too shy because of humiliation from others due to social standards. All those faces and memories fuel me with enough energy to keep going. I believe that we are all connected, and by helping others in one way or another, we are helping ourselves and the future of humankind.”
Rosa also finds inspiration in the great theoretical physicist, Albert Einstein. Telling us why, she says, “He inspires me to build logical solutions with an easy flow. It’s not just about creating a solution, but doing it in a way that is easy for others to use.” That is precisely what Rosa does – empower others, as only a good leader can.
obviously like your website but you have to check the spelling on several of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth nevertheless I will definitely come back again.
