How to Succeed Without Confidence, Motivation, or Healing | Evy Poumpouras | TEDxAthens

[@sanjeevbains690]

1. You’re not that special: you’re not alone in the world. Shared suffering. 2. Action gives confidence & motivation Structures & discipline. 3. Walk with conviction - I am a warrior & not your prey. 4. Labels are not for people. Carry lightly & release 5, Resilience: i am able to recover from it, move on and live. 6. I’m OK to go … did I live? ❤ 🙏🏽 Evy

[@katerinarevinthi1909]

Thank you from Athens Greece

[@EdelweisSusie]

I wish I'd have seen this before I watched the entire (strange) video. Thanks for listing the headings.

[@Edsrodriguez-tn9fn]

She’s one of those speakers you can’t help but watch and finish the video because of how she constantly grabs your attention with every word she speaks. I hope this video reaches millions of people who need to hear it. Anyway, my favorite part of this TED Talk speech is about confidence: you don’t need confidence to achieve anything. Constantly seeking confidence will only take you further away and waste too much of your time. I will surely bring this with me because I’m the type of person who constantly seeks confidence to do something, and just hearing these words has changed my perspective towards it. Thank u for this beautiful speech Mrs. Evy!

[@rebecca_stone]

This is how I remember TED talks used to be. She served straight-up awesomeness.

[@slutrooster]

For real

[@sagegraeve314]

Damn I wasn’t expecting to cry at subway today but here I am, covered in crumbs and tears. Yet filled with sandwich and purpose ♡

[@siphofako1]

I cannot help but laugh at the crumbs and tears, lol. Glad she touched you and left you with what could possibly be a viral pic/video😁.

[@manuelaebensberger2326]

Love this❤felt this❤

[@blessing4758]

"Sandwich and purpose" I'm filled with okra and purpose I can relate 🥹❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@GinniS-p2u]

Haha

[@nuisance_i_am_a]

"You will be able to withstand more and more and more, so that when your time comes, you will look back and say, I'm okay to go because I lived." Such a wonderful sentence. Thankyou Evy, thankyou TEDx. Also, the new style is impressive.

[@remazeldagirl2673]

This woman is so inspiring and tough. I could listen to her speak alllllll day long!

[@TheReynaRey]

This is one of the best TED Talks I have ever heard in my life. Wow. I am speechless and by the looks of it, the audience was too. Well done, Evy.

[@PaulaDTozer]

Mobilization over motivation. Just get off your buns and get moving. Labels are for clothing; they are not for people. Love this! I have created the saying, When I label me, I create me. It means, be careful what you declare that you are and what you are not, because you’ll become that. This talk is absolute GOLD! Thanks for the inspiration, Evy. You ROCK!

[@OurSpacewithJuliet]

You just got your 50th subscriber because of this comment 🎉

[@nuisance_i_am_a]

"I had no confidence in what I did. I did it anyways." I have no confidence if I'm allowed to live, I'm doing it anyways.

[@Calcifurr]

This was hands down one of the best talks. What a wonderful message and well delivered.

[@faithellis2010]

"I am nobody's prey.' Thank you so so much Evy. I needed this right now.

[@kellyannsoucie7978]

I make it a point to pay attention to Evy's speech whenever I get the opportunity to do so since she is so forthright. We are not alone in this world because she and I are not unique. It is clear that this woman has been through a lot. On this journey through life, we are here to provide support and encouragement to one another. Sincere admiration, Evy. I am able to get more information whenever I have the chance to listen to you speak.

[@LesserKnownInfo]

Damn! I've seen a lot of silly TED Talks but this woman is incredible and wise. I'm still soaking it all in and wiping the tears away. Amazing.

[@Theoverthinker81]

Take action, get more confidence, take bigger action, get bigger confidence.

[@Tyla6]

Thank you Evy.

[@nagangks7486]

She is very practical, she is different from all other speakers in the world. I liked 🎉

[@AnjaliSharma-gf8mu]

God, I hope this Ted talk goes on forever 😭

[@2ndwavestrength]

Such a powerful message from an amazingly strong resilient person. I believe your life was spared twice and you were sent back because you still have so much light and knowledge to share with the world. Thank you!

[@annabellgrey7657]

EMPATH, aren’t you ? Love it.⭕️

[@deanstownhall]

[@Amelianz]

[@snoopcow]

She hit all the points. Outstanding speech.

[@shapecommunicationsworldwi4749]

Incredible Evy.... you just saved a lot of people. I also lost my dream in 9/11...... just loved what you said.

[@etelke]

just a reminder/short summary of the key/main points. but watch it anyway, bcoz it's very good! 🙂🙃 0:00 introduction common patterns/inhibitors in way of thinking/behavior/trait > cause to be stuck 2:08 1. 🦋 you are not that special "im so unique, special" become self-focused "my problem, pain, suffering is special, nobody understands" > depression, anxiety > you feel alone 3:42 3:54 2. 🤗 you are not alone (in the world) i'm not that special in my pain. > if they could get through it, i could get through it 4:50 3. 🐅 confidence is overrated you don't need it. "once i have confidence, i can do what i want" looking for confidence to start instead of just doing. then you forget, get distracted, loose faith, .. > never achieve your goal 6:03 4. 🐒 motivation = mediocrity you do not need motivation either. if you need motivation/wait to be motivated in life to do sg, you will do the bare minimum.. 🍇 .. had no motivation.. i did it anyway.. you never finish what you start, if you need motivation. these just rob you of time and success. 🍊 when you do things, that's when confidence and motivation come in! 7:50 5. 🦓 you are nobody's prey the mindset of me being a victim or feeling like a pray. when we think of ourselves as being attacked, victimized by others.. when we develop that mindset, we become that. seems even in how you walk.. 🍓 we become what we think of ourselves! 10:02 6. 🦬 your fear is not you fear.. is an emotion.. sg that comes and goes. 🐈‍⬛ but we made it our identity. labeled themselves as being fearful.. labels are not for people. do not label yourself. when you feel fear, it's supposed to come, pass through you and be released. fear is not your identity. don't let it make a home in your head! 11:24 7. 🐘 you don't need to heal to be resilient resilient = i go through sg hard/traumatic/tragic/... i go through it, but then i recover from it. able to function as before, day to day. (i go back who i was, but not make it go away, forget about it what happened) the more difficult things you get to do in life, the more resilient you become. you get faster in it how quickly i can recover, i can move on and live. 13:10 8. ☀️ summary these keep us from moving forward achieving our goals. make sure to live.. 🌺 don't let these keep you from living your life. really think about, how you live and how you show up in the world, what message you are sending to the world. 🦧 very nice and authentic speech. 🍒 good teacher also, because at the end repetead all the main things with a good logical connection too. and now go, do something useful! 🐜

[@whilethevossisaway]

Evy is right on all points. She empowers us to move forward. I have the utmost respect for her. I have her book, it’s a great read. 💪

[@abreeanderson]

I’ve been flowing this special woman for years and everytime I see a new video I leave with something new, something inspiring and most importantly some new tricks up my sleeve 😊

[@AndaMihai-o1i]

[@kuroko_summer379]

One of the best Ted talks ever!!

OMG That was soooooo Powerful, her words full of emotions I felt it deeply. One of the best speeches, thank you Evy Poumpouras.

[@soniag8743]

Thank you Evy and thank you TedX, This was hugely helpful, I am just at a juncture right now. Wondering how I can get the confidence to start. No confidence needed. Just do. Stop thinking or over thinking and just do.

[@amosnsofwa8440]

What a massive talk👏 i gave my undivided attention to it till the end

[@Trdundee]

I have heard many talks/ discussions on this topic. You made those look like waste of time. Thank you for the best ever approach to a very important issue.

[@lifestyleREI]

One of the best TEDx Talks! 💯💯💯

[@abigailmartin5815]

I had the same 2 time NDE feelings. First one was epic, did not want to go even said fu to God. Then the next time after I had my first comfortable living situation I said I think I could die happy now. I've learned to not comment about that topic any longer. I really appreciate your wisdom. Thank you for sharing

[@linhluu565]

1. Confidence is overated. No you just do it anyways. You actually find confidence wasting time 2. Motivation is mediocrity. Keep things disciplined 3.Youre nobody's prey. You are not victim of any situation. Manifest what you mind to become❤❤😊 4. Fear is just emotion. It comes and goes. Fear is not you🎉

[@MalohatSodiqova-bl6ou]

Beautiful speech

[@mayrakennedy6200]

Evy is such an amazing woman ❤🔥

[@kevinwilliams3272]

Amazing!!! So much intelligence in this talk, so much food for thought. Every single word counted here, whereas in a lot of these TEDx talks you get a certain amount of self-congratulating when the speaker has "coached people from Fortune 500 companies" or "international organizations". In fact the only thing that was a shame was that with your breathtaking experience, Evy, the talk would have merited more time (rather 90 minutes). ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

[@ChurikMarak-n1t]

I have already learnt before in release the spyce anime

[@annabellgrey7657]

We gain a lot of thought for ourselves. Then get much better than that so I was happy with the time. I had no doubt, but you’re right I would love to go to a two or three hour thing with her.☮️

[@cristinap4635]

She‘s GREAT!❤❤❤

[@moussasandwidi3061]
