I think anyone who listens to this talk will come away feeling motivated and inspired to be their best self, and that's a truly valuable thing.
Confronting our own mortality is indeed the greatest motivator
The idea of having a clear purpose and vision is so important for achieving success, and I think Israel did a great job of conveying that
A tree can't reach to heaven without it's roots going all the way to heII. Sometimes we have to hit those lows in order to understand and appreciate just how high we can soar. Thank you for this reminder Israel.
never heard that saying before but I love it
Great quote Henry
Israel Duran's TEDx talk on the master key to leadership and business growth is truly inspiring. His personal story of transformation after a life-threatening car crash in 2018 serves as a powerful reminder that discovering your purpose can unlock everything you desire and dream.
Congratulations on such an amazing video, can't wait to see your channel grow even bigger.
this is true
Israel talks about the importance of having mentors and peers to help us along the way, and I think that's such an important point. We can't do everything on our own, and sometimes we need to rely on others to help us achieve our goals.
I can't help but admire Israel for the strength of his convictions.
Definitely agree that you have to have a clear picture of what your purpose is and what you're trying to achieve. You can't just be ambling throughout life waiting for your purpose to come to you.
I very much admire the symbolic beauty of what he says about his fathers will for his life. It's not hard to imagine that a fathers will for his son would indeed be this strong.
Oh my days when he talks about dying in the pool and feeling his fathers embrace I choked up so much. What an experience Israel and how beautiful that you were saved in this way.
I think this is a great reminder that even in the face of tragedy, there can be lessons to learn and positive outcomes to be had
Powerful, and the metaphors are very strong and clear, Israel you are a natural born leader.
His personal stories of overcoming adversity and becoming a leader were truly powerful, and his messages about being a visionary leader, living life to the fullest, and getting out of your own way were all incredibly important.
The idea of being on borrowed time really resonated with me. It's a great reminder to make the most of every day.
Absolutely agree about how the lack of clarity prevents you from moving forward
yeah, I've heard clear goals and breaking things down into steps are important because your brain can't estimate the probability of success of a nebulous, ill-defined task
The point he makes about that car accident taking him outside of his comfort is huge. A lot of the time, even in retrospect, we don't realize that we've been in a rut, that some huge disruptive event that might seem scary and awful is actually a wonderful blessing in disguise, so long as we get our mindset around it correct
I get why some people are questioning the 'borrowed time' remark but I think he just means our time here is finite, and we need to understand that every day we're here is a blessing and shouldn't be squandered.
This talk was truly inspiring. His story of overcoming adversity and becoming a leader despite the odds is so powerful. I appreciated his honesty and vulnerability in sharing his personal experiences, including the loss of his father and his own near-death experiences.
I love the straight forwardness of asking people when they're gong to serve their purpose. Most people don't know their purpose, let alone when or how they're going to serve it so to get people thinking about it is so important and motivating.
His message about being a visionary leader really resonated with me, and I think it's something that anyone can apply to their own life, regardless of their background or circumstances.
I love the way he words this, "a man whom I choose to believe represented my fathers will for my life." We really do have the choice of what to believe and I think this is a really beautiful thing to choose.
The fact that his dad left him a key and showed him that being a visionary leader is important is so powerful. It's amazing to see how the speaker was able to take that lesson and apply it to his own life, becoming a successful leader in his own right.
This is so good, purpose is everthing and defines our path and our legacy. Thankfully Israel someone saved you in the pool that day.
this is so true, this is a powerful reminder of our blessings.
Yes thank you for the kind words, I am glad you were inspired.
2:29 we are on borrowed time, now that's powerful.
wow that got me too
agreed with that statement..
we are, its true and thats why we need to make the most of now
There is so much truth in this...
@@cyruslandon Yes 🔑
The story about his dad passing away when he was young is so sad, but it's also incredibly inspiring to see how he was able to turn that tragedy into a positive lesson.
I am sure after watching this your father is looking down on you from above and is really proud. This talk is what I need to hear today, thank you.
yes how true
Thank you for the kind words my friend.
This TEDx defines why being focused in life is paramount to success, spiritually, mentally, and physically.
Truly. Such a timely reminder too!
Yes, he is a powerful speaker.
Thank you, I am glad this has helped you.
bless you it does
He is like a cross between Les Brown and Tony Robbins, cool talk, thanks.
Really important talk Israel. Keep speaking out!
good link to send me, bless you.
yes, would love to hear more from him
I am glad you have received.😊
How true, if you cannot see where you are going, you will not get to a place you want to be.
absolute truths being thrown out here and i am grateful for this purposeful reminder
Yes vision is everything.
Very compelling story. Great that you choose to harness it for good. Someone else could have that same story and use it as an excuse for why their life is a total mess. But you turned your mess into a message to inspire others to get out of their own way and life full, die empty! Proud of you my mentor @Israel Duran.
To die empty. What a challenge to take on daily! Love this!
Yes it is all about purpose.
I can't imagine how galvanizing an experience like that would be.
thanks for mssg me the link!
I got it, great talk
Yeah it would be incredibly profound. Like jumper cables for your soul
It's so easy to let our own fears and doubts hold us back from achieving our goals, but if we can learn to get out of our own way and seek help from others, we can accomplish great things.
exactly!
Yeah it's definitely the fear that holds me back
You've got to believe to achieve!!
Thank you Israel, I am sharing this talk, well done.
thank you!
talk about having a fire ignited within, really quite the perspective check
What an inspiring talk! I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability here.
The quote about dying empty is so poetic and dramatic lol absolutely love it❤❤❤
Yes it is a powerful choice. 🔑
So True brother so true, great talk and I am sharing.
Keep spreading this message Israel.
Wow his backstory is powerful!
I am so grateful to you for sending this my way today! Thank you Keese!!
Me too brother, great share.
I was tearing up a bit listening to it.
Got me for sure.
Thank you it is my history.
Loved the much needed emphasis on getting out of your own way - it is so important. We all need help from others to achieve our goals.
Absolutely, not an easy thing to do though
This is an amazing example of what you can achieve when your focus is concentrated on exactly what you want. Well done for all you have achieved and thank you for all you are trying to preach her.
Glad you were encouraged by the talk.
absolutely. I love this talk!
These lessons are very precious, may complacency do not prevent us from developing, and may our borrowed time be put to good use.
Yes we need to live a life of conviction. Great insight.
wow, love the story about the license plate
got me too...
Yes the key that unlocked everything for me...
I believe we are living on borrowed time. This is a thought provoking Ted talk. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you brother, I am glad this has encouraged you.
I agree that you have to have a clear vision or picture of what you want to achieve.
Yes without vision there is no growth.
wow. really incredible story, Israel. thank you so much for this
Glad you were able to receive.
Important lessons, Israel! Thank you!
I am glad this encouraged you, thank you.
I like what he says about being able to work with others, to receive help from others instead of letting your pride get in the way
Yes this is a huge key, great catch. 🔑
always have a lot of respect for those who have dedicated their lives to helping others. great talk
I am glad to have helped in some type of way.
Losing a parent is one of the most traumatic events in life for anyone but when it happens at an early age you're spared that trauma.
I know through experience.
Yes it is not easy either way.
Great talk Israel, I needed to hear this today.
I am glad this has encouraged you.
This is so moving. I love it.
Powerful talk, important subject...
Samantha I am glad this has helped you.
NDE's have such a profound impact on our perspective and unfortunately some people are too skeptical to understand and accept how one can impact you.
Yes sir, they are life changing.
So many people can relate to tragedy but it's what we do with it that defines us.
Yes, I 100% agree.
this is something I try to remind myself of when I have difficult or upsetting experiences.
Ultimately we choose the narrative of our lives and I think choosing to believe God sent an angel to save you from drowning as a child would be an incredibly motivating focal point.
I guess that's true, although personally I might choose something a little more down to earth...I get what you mean though.
very good information, thank you
Thank you Casey, I am glad it has been helpful.
Bravo Israel Bravo!
Thank you, Israel, this is a very special talk! ❤
Hey Kendra, thank you, I am glad it has helped you.
I love this! so much to think about.
Yes very true.
This is really powerful Israel, purpose is passion.... I am sharing...
me too!
Thank you for sharing. ❤🙏
I see a lot of people commenting on the licence plate - personally I understand the power in reminding yourself of something that forced you to grow because it placed you outside of your comfort zone.
Exactly.
This is very well put and makes a bit of sense of why he's holding it the whole time
Great presentation!
Great talk man, great talk.
Cool talk, this guys some some serious ability motivating!
Yeah I'm feeling pretty inspired right now!
very well-presented talk! I've seen others with low quality audio and video, this one is a lot nicer
I am glad you enjoyed it, please share the message.
Powerful truths
very
Yes thank you, and your TEDx on rest was amazing!
What he talks about around the 4:00 mark is something I don't think people really understand, you need to share your vision and bounce your ideas off other people, especially when you're in a leadership role. Otherwise how do you know if you're on the same page as your team?
I wonder what it is about our psyche that so often we don't understand the things Israel talks about here until we hit that rock bottom. Or maybe it's the experience of working our way back from that place, and the strength we gain during that process that allows us to find our purpose?
I've been to the bottom so I got it.
yeah I feel like the rock bottom thing activates a sort of drive to escape that situation
Purpose is power no question!
Yeah I think when you get to a place like that you know the options are 1) not being alive anymore, or 2) leveling up as a person.
Great video
I must admit, if the service had been anything less than exceptional, I wouldn't hesitate to express my dissatisfaction. However, I wholeheartedly recommend Boost Bound Agency because they have consistently demonstrated their competence and delivered remarkable results. Their expertise and dedication have surpassed my expectations, and I am confident that they will continue to provide outstanding service in the long run. Thank you for your commitment to excellence, and I highly encourage others to experience the transformative impact of partnering with Boost Bound Agency.......

Thanks for the info ones more
Wow you guys speak really great about this agency 🙏 how can the help my business growth 💹
Yeah some dramatics there, but the commenters complaining don't have the guts to stand up and speak, plus, the message is right on
A bit over the top but the message is real strong.
hard not to sound a bit over the top with this subject matter, I think...
I feel sad for Israel having experienced all this before the age of 29. I can understand why but it seems like he takes life so seriously.
Sometimes there's not really any other option after having these kinds of experiences. I'm sure he's a lot more light hearted IRL
This is a really beautiful overall message but it's kind of convoluted and I honestly I couldn't even tell you what the 3 secrets/revelations/discoveries were, it wasn't super clear to me
Thank you for your message. Perhaps this can help clear it up: 3 Revelations, 3 Secrets, 3 Discoveries - Are All In These:
1) Learned From My Dad's Early Death
2) Learned From My Drowning Incident
3) Learned From My Car Crash
I get that it was a pivotal moment but I don't know how healthy it is to still be carrying around that licence plate.
It reminds me of the gift of life.
What's with the dramatic reveal?
yeah I don't know...
The part about getting out of your own way is incredibly poignant and something I wish I'd learnt earlier
It seems that everyone I know either has to have a NDE or hit rock bottom before they're able to figure their purpose out
I relate to that- it sometimes takes a lot to shake us out of a state we've persisted in for years
Yes this was true for me.
I'm so confused by this talk, on the one hand he talks about how you don't have to die or lose your mother or father to have this realization that he had... after he had an NDE? You can't say, I arrived at this knowledge through these steps, but you don't have to take those steps you can just have that knowledge. How do you know the message is as poignant without that experience?
Well obviously he's hoping that people don't think they need to have an NDE or hit rock bottom to find their purpose... But as you said and as history would inform us, we must walk our own path, our own journey, to truly understand our purpose in life. To quote Billy Joel "we didn't start the fire, it was always burning, since the world's been turning. We didn't start the fire, no, we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it".... Take what we can from the experiences around us and keep trying to fight the fire but finding your own fire within.
@@asiscranda love the Billy quote
Chill, listen don't try and decipher.
Thank you for your questions, to clarify, the pain and sacrifices I went through I don't believe you have to go through as well to receive this truth: I need to release my gifts to the world now and I need to go after my conviction before I leave this earth. Even if I am in business, leadership or another area of gifting.
Not sure what he meant by saying we're on on borrowed time. Should we have died at birth? I'm confused and bemused.
There is a lot of Les Brown in you Israel, ignore the h-a-t-e-r-s, you are on the right course.
agree, this talk is a blessing
Mmmmm pretty sure the Master Key is a big red eye surrounded by gold 😂😂😂😂
Lol I get the reference but that was the boss key
@@lilygrander oh yeah 😅😅
I'm sorry I'm really struggling to take this dude seriously. How do you know what motivates great leaders? I guarantee you it's not the fear of death for all of them. It's the desire to implement change. Or maybe we're not thinking about the same leaders.
I'm sorry call me cynical but that story about him dying as a child is pretty sketchy like, why was no one watching him swim? Where was he that a complete stranger would have access to being able to save him, without anyone seeing him, and then not sticking around to be like hey who is responsible for this kid?
I thought the same thing. I didn't know at the time but I believe that it was an angel that was sent by God to save my life. Thank you for your message.
Bruh this whole talk smacks of BS
really, that is rude!
yes, I agree, completely smacks of Becoming Stronger
Crazy blah blah. Poor guy….
that's just rude
huh?
this is a little unnecessary
haha what does this even mean?
