From Fear to Flow | Cedric Dumont | TEDxUHasselt

[@topthreeguide6508]

Cedric' three tips to find flow: 1) Be a tough-minded optimist Rely on your skills and experiences. Trust in your vision and instinct. This combination allows you to believe in a good outcome and focus on the present moment. 2) Find deep focus a) Be absorbed in the moment. Don't multitask. b) Be selective. Have clear priorities. Do less but better. 3) Be an educated risk-taker Take more risks and accept failure to improve and expand your comfort zone. If you take more risks, you'll become happier, more satisfied and you'll feel more fulfilled. In time, you'll become more comfortable with risk and find more satisfaction and engagement while doing difficult tasks.

I never said this

I love this quote: "When you stop taking risks, you stop living life"

[@sbmillward]

I've watched and listened to many, many excellent TED talks ... but I think, so far, this one is the most beautiful, and the most inspiring. Thank you.

[@bundlewade]

"Preparation precedes mastery." :) Yes!

[@kaaijer]

I love how engaged the audience is.

[@jerseyrider4369]

It is exactly the same in motorcycle racing. You slow it down by looking far ahead and you go where you look. Loose focus and you crash or run off the track.

[@interestingstuffff1225]

This has got to be one of the best and the most under watched Ted talks EVER?? He is on par 100%

[@julianfernandez2148]

I was lucky to see Cedric presentation, he came to give a speech in my company, very inspiring, I do recommend it a lot

[@NGEternal]

I like how many times he said "I believe". He was trying to make it clear that he really did believe this, which is good. I have heard enough about what people think. I want to know what they believe.

Super nice to see and heard you, Cedric, talking and motivating people about human flight and to pursuit our dreams

Belgium's Edward Norton is right!

Wu Wei. For me, ancient eastern philosophy and the ancient stoics are the ultimate, nothing today is unique, only a different version of something else that's been known for centuries.

[@One-Ring-To-Rule-Them-All]

He admits many of his friends died and yet he continues base jumping when having a child. I know many base-jumper-widows and I think you should stop pushing the boundaries when you have a serious relationship or a child. It is deeply sad to see those left behind...

[@dacoup5955]

Dudes got 2500 base jumps and has completed more than 11,000 sky dives, if anyone should be pushing the envelop its him, no man commits to jumping from such platforms at such questionable heights without accepting the probable consequences that come with it, its impossible and i'm sure that discussion has been brought up to his family more times than he probably cares to admit ... Taking that away from him would leave a shell of a man ... It is selfish for anyone to rip away from you what drives you in life for the sake of hording you to themselves ... His wife has an idea as to who she decided to marry, when you accept someone as a life partner you accept everything that comes with them ... If anything does happen she'll have a piece of him to hold onto ... his child.

It’s all fun and games till you get hurt lol

[@MannieDex]

Beyond mentioning the importance of finding flow, this talk does absolutely nothing to actually explain how to get from fear to flow.

[@DarxusC]

Accept risk. Do stuff that scares you, when the outcome will be better than the fear.

[@iche9373]

Why is Cedric Dumont doing this to us?

[@syncstudy8792]

Watch it again, I think you'll get it better. Have you ever thought of jumping from a cliff? That's fear...and beyond it.. there's flow... He's an athlete, so let's not expect decorated and diplomatic explanation from him, try to understand his genuine expression.

[@colbyd.5044]

Flow is when you are COMPLETELY present to the moment

[@jacqueschristiantresfield1181]

@@syncstudy8792, he told us at the beginning that he is also a Hight Performance Psychologist. And I agree he also told us that fear is in other words inescapable and sometimes necessary in a way to improve ourselves. What a magnificent sharing!

[@latinchulo13]

Spoiler alert* teacher was right... we're biologically not built for flying.... Now, is humans fall with style lol.
