How the power of attention changes everything: Jeff Klein at TEDxGrandRapids

[@jenna_kate]

I like that he isn't just saying "pay attention", but he explains how to pay attention and why to pay attention and why it is important. Very good ted talk to me :)

[@jaglinuxmint]

How? How to pay attention

[@GaiaFarm]

Sharing the Legacy of Jeff Klein, dreamer, entrepeneur and go getter. So grateful he passed Gaia Farm off to me....he passed on in his sleep yesterday to much surprise of his many loved ones. That makes this Monunmental achievement and Ted Talk that much more significant. Posted only 11 days before passing. With great respect and appreciation for having known this man. May he rest peacefully and guide us on.....

Sorry to hear that. I hope his daughter is doing all right.

[@fastfrank7328]

A shame so young

[@cherylburch8384]

Working for God! Job well done.

[@mojo5093]

that's really sad - great guy, great mind, great advice

[@konstantindellas5318]

What he is talking about is a bigger and more powerful tool then most people can realise. R.I.P Jeff.

[@flyingtoaster1427]

Yes !! but only in the caste system that includes the level called 'assholes'.

[@funny_2017]

"Attention is more important than thought because the process of thought is emotional, hence delusional and a facade of an imaginary world. Attention unravels aspects of reality; it focuses our awareness, the you about you, to novice regions of the mind; distinguishing you and your mind. It calms the turboil in the mind and is a healthy experience. It declutters our minds and changes our beliefs. Our beliefs turn to wet clay, easily moldable. With the requisite amount of deliberate practise, our beliefs change its state to water. Then, we finally are the best we will ever be."©

[@MrBasicHuman]

Well said...thanks 👍 for the insight!

[@judeirwin2222]

Yeah, and it's the "turboil" that keeps ruining my soup.

[@antoniobecerro2956]

Huh? That’s a lot of words. Attention is about presence. Being, giving and receiving. Directing your focus on something or someone.

[@sureshdanganamajji4449]

Attention is also a thought

[@larsthorsen3098]

Happy Birthday Jeff. We miss you every day. Every time I watch this talk, I absorb a new perspective

[@steveleveen2408]

Jeff, you will be missed. I'm so glad you left this fine example of your wisdom and warmth for us to ponder over the years...

[@bcerdinia]

Steve Leveen awww why did he die?

[@dude4173]

Bree Biazon heart attack in his sleep. Age 57. Very sad

[@moragmcgill]

We lost a great person. Clear, compassionate, authentic.

[@kingofyoutube9318]

How did he die?

[@marqueemar8755]

Cancer carcinoma

[@JoshuaMesnik]

Profoundly on point while touching every aspect of being human. Incredible.

[@husnimubarok7204]

Excellent speaker... I am very excited the message

[@greatinfotv.4536]

Such great he shared, If we will overcome this issue ' lack of pay attention' everything will take a right direction and every thing will start growing..... amazing...

[@dude4173]

I’m only 6 mins in but I’m blown away by the part of asking everyone in a meeting what has their attention prior to starting the meeting. The effect this could have on productivity and creativity seems astronomical.

[@tetouanisaid7868]

We need more of this guy on the planet rip sir

[@andrewslowe6216]

This is amazing! What a powerful speaker with warm hearted, in depth ideas on such a broad spectrum.

[@bryanrigby4429]

You re right

[@alonsosoto8883]

Llega la pasión , como lo comunica : Palabras , gestos corporal . Just great.

[@maximilianpollack1260]

Such a beautiful message. I loved how he walks the walk of this entire talk. From beginning to end how he said the message and his body language, eye contact, and hand gestures boosted connection. I am grateful for this person and his message.

[@flyingtoaster1427]

get to another church ok

[@milansharma7365]

It's a great talk for everyone

[@lisaandtheword]

Some good wisdom here. I know the dogs on my grooming table (surprise! it's haircut day for Pup!) only relax and quit defending themselves when they see you are paying attention to what they're saying (or trying their best to say, you know?) You give them info to work with and positive feedback, plus a cpl clear boundaries. Then trust builds and they relax enough to play and to think brushing isn't half bad!

[@MrYepic]

I loved it, great treat!

[@dikozimasile6269]

Wow Thank you so much for the teaching of connecting with people through paying attention.

[@TheWisdomLibraryOfficial]

Where the focus goes energy flows...

[@horaciomalozzi3904]

Connection IS love and brings hapiness to us. This is the "secret".

[@neilgrace9147]

Brilliant talk, so insightful, good stuff,.. i was paying attention!

[@bibichloe]

Oh my God! Wonderful and insightful speech! I am so sorry this special man is no longer among us. However, I understand he was a single parent to his daughter... Well, I hope that the daughter will carry on her father's legacy and also enrich it with her own excellence. When you have such a teacher by your side, you are meant to be successful.

[@HeavenestStCyr]

Pay attention in order to connect in order to stimulate and move

[@ReelsFiltered]

An instant experiment that proved I'm really bad at paying attention: I searched the topic"how to pay attention" and this vid Popped up. I thought why Steve jobs is giving a lecture on this topic?

[@reneecolbert6229]

I enjoyed the speech it was helpful to me

[@veronicafigueroa09]

[@ronaldk.wileyjr.5476]

If only all companies were run as well as those he mentioned, We would have a holistic society that could survive without having Unions . the sad truth is, that's not the world we live in. The world we live in is dominated by greed for-profits.

[@tkomla]

The businesses he mentions are ***in this world*** 😊 These companies provide us all with a model to follow.

[@justinmorgan4822]

[@lila-yw2gn]

Ignore this comment as this is a personal msg for someone Yeah when i was still a little younger, attention matters to me. I kinda liked it but only a little bit. I enjoyed the attention from guys because thats what teenage girls secretly like but i dont like being the center of attention. Im someone who loves selfies and things like that as well. I see girls taking selfies as their form of self expression and art. But as i matured, those kind of things gradually diminish in me. There's still a little but not that much anymore. My priorities changed. If i want to achieve something, its not really for the attention. But i can never deny that i like fancy material things because all of us do. Its just that rich ppl have already stopped appreciating fancy things cuz they can easily get them. But its not the fancy things that im really after. Idc about the money lol But my dreams sound unrealistic lol, and i dont want to appear like i want to sound charitable or things like that I understand and appreciate that you want to be needed by me. Honestly thats sweet. Its just that as much as possible, i want to prevent anything that will happen that might harm others. I know you didnt mean that. I understand that u want to make sure that i will be in your house,its just that, for me, that would be somewhat scary because idk u that much, idk how u will treat me.. Its not that i dont like u, its just that its just really scary to suddenly live with someone that u dont know that much about

[@lila-yw2gn]

And i want to ask u questions abt u too as well that r more personal, its just that i know that i wont get that much answers

[@sai6702]

lila 123456789 i’m curious about this

[@د.كاظمعبدالله-ص5ه]

[@hongchenh6579]

i ask you a question, what attention bring in our life? is it a only power in human's life?

[@beekei_patel]

Connecting love each other like a attractions force of atom .hence proved 🤭

[@TaTa-ls7yc]

Are you right Guy

[@nothinginteresting1662]

Ads are not bad. I believe if privacy concerns are addressed, ads are the best way to provide and consume services. Think about it. Do you hate ads or do you hate the ads that don't care about your privacy? Most of us convert our privacy concerns into a hatred for ads. But really, if it was *you* who chose the ads, will you be concerned of privacy? If you had total control of the ads you will see, will you oppose ads? If you ask me, that's great. You support creators as well as can enjoy their services for free. And if that's the case, what better economy can we have? You also don't need an algorithm that will 'track' user activities and figure out their interests. Recommendation systems can still be used, but not for advertising as the topics are solely based on user choice. Recently, Google has come up with features that allow you to select the topics you are okay with seeing the ads about, just like you select your topics of interest in reddit. I don't trust personalization because to me it's like their detective algorithm is following me and noting down every single reaction I have and predicting my next move. I disapprove that. But instead, if I tell them what ads I am okay watching and they only show me those category ads, it is great for me. I recommend everyone to check out your Google settings and choose what ads you would approve. Sensitive ads are disabled by default. It's only getting better and I believe Google has taken great steps to address privacy concerns. Why can't we have an attention economy where the engagement is not forced or addictive, but based on *positive* influence of content?

Oh wow

Tell me how much a company pays its workers and I will tell you if they are loved or not...

I payed attention to his arms and hands and did not listen mostly. That is my problem, but i did pay attention to everytnoing but not what people say. I don't know way. I just can't cocentrate on vocale voices ever since school time. Only hearing the first 5 minutes.

Missing you always.

[@nathankohen2465]

You can include God in this exchange of attention, don't you think? Attention is sintome of the soul or consciousness, and He is the supreme consciousness. And consciousness is the only way to conect with Him...But you have to direct your attention.

The Meryl Faye story: The child is demanding the parent follow her wishes. The parent should be in charge of the situation not the child. In the same situation, I would have just scooped the child up, put her in the car and used the time we have on the journey to discuss with her cause and affect. To discuss that when we are pushed for time, we cannot waste time and now we have time we can discuss things that happened. I would discuss the reasoning for my actions to bring about her understanding of situations and time constraints. Understanding is the key to Life.

Unfortunately, consciouness and capitalism don't really belong together. Capitalism is a predatorial and destructive sytem that should simply be abolished.

[@newdawnrising8110]

Conscious capitalism... BS we need regulations on irresponsible industries and to eliminate those companies that are not serving the social good.
