Intrinsic motivation in sport and in life | Pietro Boselli | TEDxUNYP

Model, Trainer and Professor Pietro Boselli delivered a talk to TEDxUNYP about the aesthetics of body and maintaining physical peak performance as well as the importance of increasing and developing the mind simultaneously. Pietro Boselli was born in Italy in 1988. He moved to London in 2007, where he pursued his academic career at UCL, with a degree in Mechanical engineering obtained in 2010 with first class honours, followed by a PhD in computational design of steam turbines, a project sponsored by Hitachi of Japan. During the course of his 5-year doctorate degree, Pietro had the opportunity to deliver problem solving classes and lectures on the subject of mathematical modelling and analysis, to second year undergraduates of the mechanical engineering course at UCL.
Pietro’s professional career as a fashion model, however, began earlier than his academic one. In 1995 he landed his first campaign for Armani Junior, becoming the face of the brand for 4 consecutive years. The relationship with Giorgio Armani lasted throughout the years, with Pietro’s participation to fashion shows from the age of 18 up to very recent collaborations with Emporio Armani and worldwide campaigns. Pietro has since early age b 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

Pietro made such an improvement in public speeking since his last TED talk, well done!

[@iwnunn7999]

smart guy. He was driven to overcome that fear and show that he could.

[@irmar.smunif4878]

Practice makes perfect. Im also a teacher, nd i know how it feels at the 1st time in front of class. Now im bit understand what's hes talking about. Hehe

[@who_is_irbaz]

S alot

[@Aransi]

How to be desciplined like him? He works out twice a day Very polite..highly qualified and hard working Can we change ourself too?

[@Aransi]

Leonard Fregin 1 hour each, 2 hour in total(aprox) Stil sounds ok. I think our body can adapt that.

[@Aransi]

@Karan stop or use wisely? That takes me to rule number 1 Discipline. Thanks.

[@privcraft_]

And a he has a PhD

[@lizmarielaescobarcandia3153]

[@nidulamaknidulamak4214]

@Leonard Fregin That is weakness speaking. Everything is achievable, only naysayers will remain at the bottom.

[@directiontonarnia]

The only model whose intelligence and intellect impresses me more than his body. Bravo pietro. Above all, your dedication and motivation

[@13queencoffee72]

Wowww you are more relaxed this time! Superb

[@RAJULAMIC]

Dorothy AB yes and I enjoyed his presentation more

[@dogged477]

He is a lot more calm when he talks about fitness than the previous talk.

[@alfonsovalleguzman1699]

This world needs more of your talks

[@iwantsifegold]

He did so much better than last Time

[@cat70705]

This really opened my mind to how much value we place on our minds over our bodies first. I never knew that! This was very illuminating.

[@Merseyrock]

His attitude of "Mens sana in corpore sano", of valuing body and mind equally, reminds one of Bruce Lee´s own attitude towards Martial Arts and Philosophy. But his approach seems to be more in line with what the Ancient Greeks believed (e.g. Plato, Aristotle, et. al.) about mind-body duality. (Which of course he further explores inquiring into several other sources from the Western Tradition.) It´s a great thing that he uses his personal appeal and popularity to influence others to do something for themselves that, in the end, will amount to their own personal benefit. Inspiring guy. All the best! to him.

[@janefranco8635]

HANDSOME, kind-hearted, intelligent and talented. God bless you more.

[@SpicyBiCutiePie]

Love that he walks his talk. It is possible to be an athlete and intellectual. Well said!

[@williamfahey6066]

As I said before, Pietro makes the world a better place. He is so smart and charming. I really enjoy Philosophical conversations and talks. Jeff

[@rr7firefly]

I regularly tell people that knowing two or more languages is a strong base for developing the mind and the imagination. I think that I will introduce this video to further that point. Clearly Pietro has enormous facility with English and it is undoubtedly second to his native Italian. Perhaps Pietro is exceptionally bright and strongly motivated. That could be, however I see him as a perfect example to share with others.

[@giuseppegiardullo5262]

What an inspiring speech!!! Well done Pietro... quality speech!!!

[@Tanya41913]

Thank you for a great speech. I started to believe in my body more. We should definitely cultivate that connection between mind and body!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️💪🏼

[@armanabelino7517]

Brilliant speech from the sweetest person on the planet earth chosen to be intellectual or athlete but his both and the proof of living. I’m in ❤

[@isavalentic1212]

I'm very happy to see how much more relaxed he was in front of the cameras.

[@who_is_irbaz]

He is speaking without looking scripts. The way of speech i want to give

[@daniebello]

Wow, his intellect is way more attractive than his body. Which I didn’t think possible before.

[@robertbarber1864]

Excellent!!! I love how you bring it all together, in balance. You are absolutely brilliant Dr. Boselli!!! Thank you for being such an inspiration ;-)

[@zoegotti5193]

Thank you, your philosophy and your formula are truly something all of us should learn from.

[@Arthurreymon]

Thank you Pietro. This is a Masterpiece. All of this points are really essential to us. So, I really appreciate how you explain this "philosophical point of view".

[@theo9838]

I enjoyed your presentation, Pietro! I like your argument that the strengthening of both body and mind are important. It is interesting to hear your opinions on topics such as these, and I hope you plan to do more. Thanks, and wishing you all the best!

[@jasongoff6049]

Excellent speech I can't describe how much your videos apply to what I'm looking for. Thank you so much Piedro your video has been what I was looking for today was the my first day I discovered your video now I'm your fan I enjoyed watching all your video. Again thank you thank you sending you loves and peace from Sandiego.

[@friarmoe]

Pietro, Thank you for your insights. I dare say that as a Catholic priest, I am very convinced that the balance of Body, Mind, Heart (emotions) and Spirit is very important and attentive to all lifts up the whole person. I'm not sure Christians see things the same way now as in the middle ages.

[@pussygalore5947]

As a Catholic priest, we know exactly what interests you ( and the rest of us ) about Pietro.

[@elgringoheinze6146]

Pietro even speaking about philosopy, he has really it all

[@nagaratna5367]

Wow! Philosophy from Pietro ! Quite inspiring.

[@marianocarlinivisintainer8024]

Much confident and great observations! He is ultimately so handsome!

[@X_m19]

I really like this talk. He is using philosophy to explain his point of view of fitness. Great speak 💪🏽

[@stephen1371]

My father was an educator. His most senior position was as an administrative Vice Chancellor at Vanderbilt University. He didn't believe athletics should be apart of higher learning. I totally disagree with this attitude. Athletics or some kind of physical activity should be a required of all students(especially younger students). Intense exercise can reset the brain and his attitude did not serve is best interest in his career. I completely agree with Pietro's assertion.

[@yurycastiblanco6279]

It is an amazing point Of view. Thank you for share this with us. Regards from Colombia.
