Tim Minchin - 9 Life Lessons
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 02. 2019
- Tim Minchin, the former UWA Arts student described as "sublimely talented, witty, smart and unabashedly offensive" in a musical career that has taken the world by storm, is awarded an honorary doctorate by The University of Western Australia. What do you think on his 9 life lessons? Are any of them applied in the workplace? Can they be?
When I feel hopeless, I listen to this. Thank you, Mr. Minchin
This is why I came here today
Omg me too! 😂 I decided to become a teacher because of this speech 🥳
I am the same Amanda!
Yes, I came here today for a reminder too
Best speech I've heard in my life. I have listened to it many times.
"Empathy is intuitive but is something you can work on intellectually." I find myself quoting this all of the time now. So true.
I'm 24 years old. My friends around me are getting big career promotion and planning a wedding, basically getting ahead with their lives at such remarkable incredible leaps and bounds. It's scary, depressing and sort of causing panic to me. But I've been calming myself in the midst of these events while also celebrating my friends' milestones and not projecting my 'unachieveness' on their happiness. Interestingly, all of the 9 life lessons mentioned are the values that I have been instilling in myself while I try to not panic because of self-induced peer pressure. I am at my own pace. I will be okay. Thank you for this video~
You'll figure it out in your own time. There's no set timeline you have to follow to be successful or happy in your career and life.
You dance better to your own rhythm, not someone else's.
"Rejoice in what youve learned, and spray it."
As someone who has no formal education, I cant help myself, and do exactly that.
I try to live my life by this. And the more I listen to it. The more I realize I have achieved. Thankyou Tim.
Tim Minchin is very Human which is a very rare quality these days
Brilliant speech and fantastic life lessons. I've played it for all of my kids.
"I don't care if you're the most powerful cat in the room; I will judge you on how you treat the least powerful. So THERE."
I love watching the guy behind him..I feel like he just gets it
Yes!
LOVED the truth in this that goes against what the society has been telling us - how conditioned are we to be told to chase after our dreams (which aren't ours to begin with) and over-analyse the meaning of life? Simply gold x
No need to agree or disagree. His speech is funny, warm-hearted and touching."Spray it. Fill it.
I love it.
I didn't expect much going into this video, but it was super entertaining. I loved the aphorisms and metaphors he used . Not only that, he had some incredible lessons I'm going to take to heart.
I have watched this so so many times. I dont disagree with a single word of it.... but my very favourite is No 6. Teach! My mother was a teacher. I always swore blind it was something I would never do. Although I have managed to avoid traditional school classroom settings, I have always somehow ended up in it. It's something I'm apparently very good at (maybe it's genetic?). Even if I think back to my own childhood, teachers would often assign me to help kids with learning problems, or non english speakers. I guess it was always there. Given the massive respect I have for my mother, I do totally agree teachers are incredibly important, but even more than that, it can be an amazing experience. Teaching a person something they struggle with can require a lot of patience.... but that moment something clicks in their mind and they suddenly get it.... the look they get in their eyes is so worth every little second.
Well said. In my case, I'm not a Teacher, but I'm a teacher. Nothing is more satisfying.
This is such a great speech, thanks Mr. Minchin
A compassionate, kind, ever so clever Humanist. A delightful unique. Look for his speech that includes the description of his hotel room in Perth 🥳
Amazing! I really needed to hear this. Someone expressing exactly how I feel and stand in live. Something I try to teach my beautiful daughters. I am not from the place I live. I am from a progressive country (the Netherlands) -which unfortunately with its right-wing government is turning backwards- and moved to a country with mostly old fashioned thinking. Its often bias and judgemental, although progression is raising its head, its comes at u huge cost of conflict with this ridged way of thinking. I wish people would be more like this man. The world would be a better place
This speech is going to change my life 🙃
I took me until my late 50's to find a job I love so after two diplomas of graphic design and a bachelor of visual communication and design I work for a diesel mechanic and I love my job that had nothing to do with graphic design whatsoever.
Congrats! That is so damn cool and good luck with your job!
@@aaronlock5091 Thank you :)
Profound speech that is simple and true!
That thing about luck really stuck with me. I first watched this when I was at university a few years back and I didn’t really get what he meant. But it’s been in the back of my mind ever since andI now completely agree with him. Everything in life is just luck
Yes, he is basically saying that everyone is a product of nature (their biology) and nurture (their environment, family situation, country of birth, social class etc etc). Tim is full of wise words.
This should be viral.
I love this
His opinion I agree...love it
Wish I'd had this said to me when I was 16
His insight is truly incredible.
it fills hope in you @ratie Darling, you got it.
Just live to the fullest potential. Problems are necessary else life is too long and boring. ✌️
How can you write something with such excellent flow!
❤excellent speech.Funny.
Reference to Douglas Adam's is at 7min "42" sec... j.s
This video make me become a teacher myself :)
Have listened and done it for a year and a half. It was an adventure indeed. :)
I guess all of them are so true 👌👏👏
Agree or disagree? It’s his opinion.... I accept it as that
I frequently cite this speech to my terapist. Too bad she can't speak English. I gotta translate it someday.
Be pro something not just anti.
I love this 👏
I have to listen to this at least once a week for the last 3 months. I love it, too. Hello wonderful person!
@@Amanda-mb5sp HI dear how are you? I have to confess I rarely listen to motivational speakers talking but this got to me
CZcams has another, later speech he gives in Perth. His description of his hotel suite is hysterical. Tim gets better and better with age.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

No truth?
Is that true?
With regards to your comment on opinions and arseholes...
I actually don't have an arsehole. I had to have my whole large bowel and colon removed due to Crohn's and I now have a little sewn-up nub. It's cute and means I don't fart but my abdomen is a mess though. 😅
I still absolutely love this video but the more you know... 🌈
Hopefully he really doesn’t feel that life has no meaning. That would be sad. The notion of a creator and an afterlife are central to my happiness.
Me too! I found the ending sad!
His point is that even though life has no set meaning, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it. You make your own meaning in life every day, and that’s the beauty of it.
“ Opinions are like a-holes. Everybody has one. Yours should thoroughly examined and often. Not mine. Yours.”
Greatest inspirational speeches of history:
Kid President Pep Talk < Obama < ... < ... < Tim Minchin
I get back to this on a regular basis and keep being amazed at how perfectly meaningful and beautiful it is.
Hi Paddy hows life?
People really think this is good?
Some people like to be positive sometimes, whether it offends you or not.
I don't think people realise how incredibly dark this speech is.
It's not dark, it's realistic. He is basically saying you only have one life and it goes by fast, so don't waste it.
Funny...but dark and hopeless.
Honest is the better word for it.
