The Art of Decision-Making Without Stress | Kannan Gopinathan | TEDxIIFTDelhi

In this inspiring TEDx talk, former IAS officer Kannan Gopinathan shares a profound perspective on life and decision-making. Drawing from his own experiences, Kannan highlights the power of making decisions without the burden of fearing consequences, emphasising the importance of focusing on the process rather than the outcome. Through compelling anecdotes and personal reflections, he offers a liberating philosophy: true freedom comes from embracing the journey, not being shackled by the results. Whether you’re at a crossroads or simply seeking a new approach to life’s challenges, this talk will leave you with the courage to choose your path with confidence and clarity. Mr. Kannan Gopinathan, former IAS officer in the Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli Cadre, became a notable figure in India's civil service landscape due to his unwavering commitment to public service.
Mr. Gopinathan’s dedication to public service has been remarkable. During the devastating floods in Kerala, he volunteered for relief work, working alongside labourers in flood-affected areas without disclosing his identity. It was only when his IAS batchmate, the Ernakulam Collector, recognized him and revealed his identity to the public that his selfless service came to light. Despite the challenges he faces, his commitment to serving the people remains unwavering, earning him both admiration and criticism in equal measure. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
