In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

It's amazing how few views this talk has. This is extremely valuable for those who know what they want but aren't sure how to get there. School, career, relationships...This is applicable

Wini G Answer to your question is 'Irony of Humans'

[@andrewc.2952]

It goes to show how few people who are seeking and reaching for wisdom and information to excel an not take the easy route. We are people who are going beyond the first search result on a Google search. We want more. Here we are.

[@realactionphil1]

Professor O'Connor is an amazing person and an inspirational teacher.

[@andrewc.2952]

Talk about an "Aha!" moment. Thank you, thank you, thank you. This articulates and solidifies the essence of a winning, conquering attitude for those of us who are tired of being overlooked for jobs even though we are more than qualified and capable just because we can't understand the language and purpose of the résumé and job interview.

[@youssoufadam4399]

Andreas C. Indeed that what we really need to get in

[@benngoma537]

From a distance, several thousand miles across the world, I felt the depth and was inspired

[@brianfoster7486]

really powerful stuff, and a lesson for everyone ... be bold, be different. think creatively. well said.

[@youssoufadam4399]

Inspiring to the point I felt in the next interview I’ll be hired for sure. Wait for update soon

[@felicianothorpe8998]

This is very eye opening and full of practical wisdom.I see the psychological working here.

[@knbsd3876]

I've been thinking about how to differentiate myself from the rest, since the job search game has proven tremendously difficult. I've gotten so many, "we went with someone else", that my dream job, which I'm interviewing for in FOUR weeks (9/18), has to manifest with a generous offer. I've done my research, and will learn more about the company to prep for the interview. I'm meeting with: the regional director, local director, 2 admin assts, a case manager, and the HR director. I'll def report back after the interview, and will also let you know the outcome, as soon as I hear...probably last week in Sept. 🙏

[@harumiayame8586]

Yeah, you haven't reported back yet.

[@tinuflint393]

[@pvsk10]

If you truly want something from the bottom of your heart, you will find a way to get it.

[@Iamthatgurrl]

This was amazing. And I’ll be writing back about how I got the job very soon.

[@NicoTNN]
