Why I Make Friends with Strangers: Claud Williams at TEDxLoughborough

[@ClaudWilliams]

I'm glad you enjoyed the talk. I can say I've learnt some of my biggest life lesson's from people I wouldn't expect. Its really not able about status, and of course your opposition is nearly the best group of people to learn from.

The accent amazed me

[@scabilos]

"You never know when you can learn from somebody" - this is the bottom line for me. I learned good things even from my enemies. Since they were enemies, I kept an eye on them in a regular manner. And from time to time, I saw small sparkles of the human gem. Sometimes even they can demonstrate good examples that are recommended to follow.

You are my top TX video. You just confirmed what some people have told me I’m too friendly. 25 years later, I have quality friends and have started a business with only because I put my self out there honestly and to never abuse my friends over the years. God bless you for your voice. We all support each other and we have learned so much about someone other than ourselves and taking the time to explore honest people. Teaching us that we all need each other in this world. Hopefully we can make a better world for the future.

Do you find it difficult to speak to strangers ?

[@YourGirlSudanny]

This was lovely. I'm definitely going to try the challenge over the next 7 days & see how I get on. My issue is keeping the conversation going...

Do you prefer to talk to strangers?

A fantastic message. Learned a lot!

[@ClaudWilliams]

There is tonnes more research to back up the point, but I guess we don't need psychologist to tell us that having friends just make life better! lol I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
