Stop Waiting for Life to Happen | Peter Sage | TEDxKlagenfurt

What is the ultimate App you ever downloaded? Facebook, Twitter, Shazam? According to Peter Sage it is and has always been Love. Love is they key to unleash our potential and reach for true connections between one another. In his talk Peter reflects on why separation is an illusion and illustrates how we can transform our lifes into a smashing experience.
Peter Sage is a well-known international serial entrepreneur with twenty-five years of experience in growing fast-paced enterprises.
During that time he launched, operated and brought to success over a dozen companies, several of which were large enough to qualify for the global Entrepreneurs Organisation membership. He served as the Chairman of the London YES Group (the largest personal development organization in Europe) and currently serves on the Entrepreneurship Advisory Board for INSEAD - a global top-five business school and one of the world leaders in the field of entrepreneurship education. Peter is also an advisor to the Hungarian Government on their creative think tank policies. Virtually all of the businesses Peter created have been in different industries.
His current passion is to focus more on sharing his insights, wisdom, lessons and mistakes with others, and showing them the way of “Enlightened Entrepreneurship.”

Listening to this 7 days after the devasting earthquake in Turkey that has now claimed over 34 thousand lives and counting makes me appreciate every moment I am alive. I live in Istanbul and it's heartbreaking to see the country bleed. Life is precious. Life is fragile. Live every moment as if it is your last, because it might just be.

Technology manufacturers are experts in drawing our attention away from what matters the most. I used to be shy and withdrawn in a society that liked to interact constantly with one another. I worked hard in bringing out the social butterfly within me as my shyness was seen as weakness. I succeeded to wake in a World where I now walk with my head up, look, smile and want to interact with people to find them distracted by a phone with ear plugs in, unable to hear as I say "Good morning".

What an excellent TED Talk! I'm surprised as to why this talk doesn't have atleast a million views! Literally a gem that I found. Honestly I had judged the video based on the title and how the speaker looked and the number of views it had, but man was I wrong. I was completely into the talk halfway in, having forgotten everything around me being completely immersed in what he was saying. I've seen so many talks with views twice as that of this one yet being not even half as good. Well what they say is true after all - All that glitters is not gold! This surely was gold, and thank you Peter for this wonderful talk! Cheers :)

[@j_j8758]

Very powerful message. Thank you for this positivity and hope.

[@courageousartoflove]

We have been conditioned that love is earned because of parenting. You have to do something to be loved. You have to be something to be loved. Illusion of separateness. We think we are separate. We too focused on ourselves. We cannot do it when we are in the brain than in the heart (feeling). Level of certainty. Humanity wants human of certainty, reason. Life is a mirror. You get what you put into it. You cannot drive looking at the rearview mirror. Live life every single drop. Live with passion. Live communicating. What matters is what we do with our story. Let go of our excuses. Use technology to bring our potential. Be grateful at life without checking your phone or email. Be present. Step forward. Live a legacy. Love. Thank you 💌

Adding this idea to my subjective philosophy. I’ve always know it all comes down to love and I got that through my faith. Yet the mind is a whole other arena that isn’t so cut and paste for me. Hence the move to develop my subjective philosophy for my mind. This idea is perfect for it. Many thanks.🖤🙏🏿

Thank you so much peter. I Scrolled through comments to find a summary,but after listening I can say, Nothing will be equal to Listening yourself. My fave quote:" LIFE IS A MIRROR." " IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT HAPPENS TO US,RATHER WHAT MEANING WE CHOOSE TO GIVE TO IT!'

VERY VERY THOUGHT PROVOKING

[@amber8349]

staying chained to your past is the worst thing you can do to yourself. It robs you of the present and kills your future as a result, and in a few years you’ll be looking back on that time where you took now for granted continuing to regret your past again. Eventually, when your life is coming to an end you’ll be regretting the past for the very last time realizing you have never truly lived.

[@TracyAllenVideos]

Murny Munira ... The title says to stop waiting for life to happen. This story about the lady that lost 2 loves of her life should be an inspiration for everyone to realize how short life is. We find reasons to not do something versus living full out and moving forward. Maybe if she had married that man, who’s to say that something different would’ve happened that day for them🤷🏽‍♀️ You never know🤷🏽‍♀️

[@ozlemdogan9687]

Last night i had a dream. Hypnotherapy has allowed my old subconscious to be seen consciously and i have subconsciously and courageously written my dream programming, at the subconscious level. Now i dream, remembering more...Last nights dream was so clear, and with so much feeling.. i wrote it down to become aware of it happening in reality. I was fixated in the pages of a large book, the images were alive, glistening.. i was watching, a live participant at a fashion show, right there with the models strutting, beautiful, confident.. it was so intense, every little detail.. pimped europhoria. This morning i jumped on youtube and we connected. I am fixated. I am tuned in and turned on, receiving and sponging up. You are strutting and i, feel you have come to deliver me what i need right now, to shift to a higher level. Grateful and a new admirer. 🦋💫🤸‍♀️🎯🌊🌱🙏

great speech peter

[@Theultimatepokemonma]

So for all those people that are highly cynical with this video, go ahead and keep that mindset - couldn't really care less. correct, its not got so much 'content' as you might expect from a highly analytical and scientific ted talk. but personally that doesn't make a difference - how often of all the different ted talks that you've viewed have you decided to go do something? this video, if you get the message is simple. be grateful, love life, love your relationships, and cherish each moment and go make the most of it, not many other ted videos can give that kind of message, and this does just that dont want you to rant at me, happy for criticism though cause id love a different perspective thats not just cynical emotions lol

[@TheNewLifeOfFienie]

I loved this talk!!!

[@DisreeShaw]

One thing I realised as a CBT Therapist a coach and motivational thinker and doer is. Us BRITISH don't fall for any kind of enthused empathic love driven motivation. USA yes but us no. I enjoyed your speech but these kinds of concepts in UK are often rejected because we are so cynical. You are my kinda person please keep spilling your words and flowing with your energy.
