Happiness is all in your mind: Gen Kelsang Nyema at TEDxGreenville 2014


Simple, profound truths are the realm of this Buddhist nun. Her message? The gift of happiness truly lies within our own hearts and minds. Gen Kelsang Nyema, exuding a peacefulness that immediately connects with the audience, starts by asking three questions: Are you having a good day? Why? Tomorrow, would you rather have a good day or a bad day? She teaches that we cannot put our happiness at the whim of other people and of circumstances. If we want to be happy, we have to «stop outsourcing our happiness to other people» and cultivate a source of inner peace. What happens next is quite astounding. The whole crowd of 350 people proceeds to meditate with Nyema. Theres a little squirming at first, but as she leads the audience through a calm citation of how to rest the mind, audience members feel a collective relaxation flow into the room and through the people. Fascinating! Refreshing.

This talk was part of TEDxGreenville UNZIPPED, held April 11, 2014, at the Kroc Center in Greenville, South Carolina. For more information about Gen Nyema and her co-presenters, please visit tedxgreenville.com/2014presenters

Self Worth Theory: The Key to Understanding


Nearly 80% of college students report that procrastination is a significant issue for them. Procrastination is not a matter of mere “laziness” and the solution is not simply “better time management”. Could it be that procrastination is actually a highly effective strategy for self-protection and that’s why we continue to do it? In this talk, Nic unravels the surprising and perplexing motivational dynamics underlying our procrastination that lead so often to disengagement and burnout. Illustrated with examples drawn from two decades of coaching students, he introduces self-worth theory of motivation, a powerful research-based conceptual framework for understanding and overcoming procrastination, avoidance, and over-commitment. Dominic (Nic) Voge is Senior Associate Director of Princeton University’s McGraw Center for Teaching and Learning, and author of “Life Beyond Grades” (Cambridge University Press). His work focuses on helping students truly thrive and achieve a sense of well-being not only academically, but in all realms of their lives. Nic is a founding member of The Resilience Consortium, the Princeton Perspective Project, and Principedia, initiatives designed to deepen engagement and learning among students. He maintains private consulting and coaching practices. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

Разрешить себе быть нормальным | Анастасия Шмеркина | TEDxSadovoeRing


Что скрывать — все мы стараемся казаться окружающим красивее и лучше, чем мы есть на самом деле. Но, оказывается, иногда отказ от этого желания, повышает наши шансы на счастье.
В выступлении на TEDxSadovoeRing Анастасия Шмеркина рассказывает свою собственную, личную историю о том, что происходит, когда перестаешь подгонять себя под общепринятые нормы и к каким важным изменениям в жизни это может привести.

Сценарист и режиссёр Анастасия Шмеркина, считает, что правильные ракурсы и грим помогают только на съемках, а в реальной жизни способность позволить себе быть неидеальным, открывает гораздо больше дверей, чем страх и жаление спрятать свои внешние недостатки.

Загадка сна — нужно ли её разгадывать? | Михаил Полуэктов | TEDxPokrovkaSt


Мечта или сон? Английское dream в русской интерпретации имеет сразу два толкования. Сон — важная составляющая жизни каждого из нас, а потому требует такого же пристального изучения, как и повседневные явления в период бодрствования. О взаимосвязях этих двух периодов жизни человека, а также о том, как сны могут стать явью.

Михаил Полуэктов — кандидат медицинских наук, доцент кафедры нервных болезней Института профессионального образования Первого МГМУ им. И.М. Сеченова, заведующий отделением медицины сна университетской клинической больницы №3, вице-президент Национального общества по сомнологии и медицине сна и президент Национального общества специалистов по детскому сну.

How bleeding on the paper Changed My Life | Farhat Ali Khan | TEDxGGSIPU


At different points in time, we have all found ourselves stuck in a situation we’re unable to get out of. Some people emerge victoriously and exemplifying this victory we have Mr. Farhat Ali Khan. Now a successful writer, but he was not an easy path. His ability to find inspiration in the little things in life which would blend into the background by the normal eye gave him the kickstart.
Even with his knack for poetry, it didn’t come to him in the first go. It was only after the loss of his loved ones, that his pain bled through the paper to create poetry which went on to be a published book. But at no point did he look back, and slowly he had a grip on his life again, with a plethora of newer and bigger opportunities in front of him.
Just at the young age of 19, Mr. Farhat Ali Khan has successfully published his debut poetry book, “COLORS” and his latest book — “Midnight Hues” is Amazon’s #1 Best Selling Poetry Book. With lots of enthusiasm, Mr. Farhat Ali Khan brings in the required energy in the room and leaves people with thoughts colliding, forming something new, something magnificent!
An actor, author, theater artist, and writer, Farhat Ali Khan was born and brought up in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and now, hes further completing his studies in India from Jamia Millia Islamia.

His acting debut was in Doordarshan in 2015 for the serial, «Adhikar» and is a theatre actor. He has performed 3 plays including one at Jamia Hamdard for Jashn-e-Adab. Just at the young age of 19, he has successfully published his debut poetry book, “COLORS” and his latest book — “Midnight Hues” is Amazon’s #1 Best Selling Poetry Book! Even while pursuing his graduation, he has actively participated in societies like Enactus and represented his college at the National level. Being a strongly opinionated person, he has always been at the forefront and worked with organizations like UMEED NGO to bring light to issues of the underprivileged.
