How Learning to Live in the Now Changed My Life | Darren Brin | TEDxSaintThomas

In his TEDxSaintThomas talk entitled, “How Learning to Live in the Now Changed My Life”, Buttahman will take us through his disappointments and their associated lessons learned. How can your awareness of the NOW help you navigate your life? Darren "Buttahman" Brin
Became one of entertainment's "movers and shakers" after leaving his birth place of St. Thomas, USVI. After graduating from Morgan State University, he took an internship at the local radio station WERQ and worked his way to the top receiving his name "Buttahman" due to his over usage of the word "Buttah" to describe everything when on the radio. His career has spanned from MTV Jams, to hosting the first nationally televised hip hop game show "Hoodfab," to Director for Music & Development at BET Networks and now to comedy. Buttahman has performed in such notable comedy clubs as The Comedy Store, Inside Jokes, and Comedy Union and has made comedic appearances on a variety for radio, internet, and TV programs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

If we live in the now, we can enjoy every single moment in the life.

the power of now is never-ending. i watched you do this live, and it will always resonate because now is always the time to regroup, to check yourself, and to say "thank you" :-)

call me boomer i don't care, but i just don't get the man bun, & except for maybe a japanese shogun movie warrior, i never saw one that i thot was cool. in this guys case maybe he's going for comedic? spiked mohawk, all the Simpsons cartoon hair is funny, but the man bun is like what a self respecting poodle if it could decide, wouldn't allow to have done to himself.
