As someone who constantly looks for motivational material online, I have been fortunate to come across some particularly inspiring websites. One website that I absolutely love is TED.com
TED is a wonderful collection of presentations, given by some of the brightest and most creative people on the planet. The videos generally last 10-20 minutes and are packed with mind blowing insights. I am a regular visitor of TED and never leave without learning something new.
Speakers at TED have included amazing individuals such as Bill Gates, Michelle Obama, Tony Robbins, and Malcom Gladwell, as well as some lesser know geniuses.
The reason TED is so valuable is because not only is it inspirational but it also challenges you to view life from a variety of different perspectives.
Every speaker at TED stands behind one goal: To positively benefit humanity.
To get you started here are the links to 5 of my favorite videos.
Are we in control of our decisions?
Do schools kill our creativity?
Chances are, you’ve stumbled across this absolutely fascinating site, but in case you haven’t, I highly recommend you check it out as soon as possible.
