This talk will motivate people to act on their personal purpose in life and empower transformation.

This is a great system to use. I've also found that there were 5 reasons I felt stuck in life:
1) Believing you can't have what you want.
2) You're getting more out of where you are now.
3) Focusing on leaving vs. what it is you are moving on to.
4) Filling your free time with meaningless activities.
5) You haven't practiced doing your "vision".
I know these were true for me. I hope they help you too. 🙏
Thanks for watching Eddy!
This list describes my situation to a t and made me realize what I have to work on. I made a screenshot of it and will start using it as a roadmap and guidance. Thank you Eddy, so powerful 🙏🏻
My vision doesn't end well for my sister. So I refuse to give in purely for that reason

"The key is to accept where you are in life..."
Trying. Really trying, but I hate where I'm at.
General Waste imagine how powerful life would if you came from a place of love?
@@BoscoAnthonyVancouver That's something I've never known. My family have always been very supportive and caring but 'loving' isn't a word I'd use. We rarely tell each other that we love each other, and that has affected my relationships, like it's a given. Instead it creates doubt. So I need to learn to accept my mistakes and develop self-love and strength. If I can do that then I will be a brilliant partner for someone. That's my aim. That's what I want. I know I have a lot to offer after all I've learnt. I just have to be patient now.
General Waste take the attachment test. sounds like you have anxious attachment. i know bc that’s what i have as well. to heal it starts with finding love within yourself. you are on the right path.
Keonna Felder what is the attachment test?
TC InCali it’s about the attachment that molded us as kids. google attachment test
Save money and move. Don’t live in your family’s roots. Make your own.
Saving does help! Its not about how much you make but rather how much you can and are able to save
Yes, and admit to your self if you realize that you parents roots and worldview was much wiser/healthier/meaningful than you’re own.
Happened to me when I hit 30
Saving only helps if you live in a first world country. I’ve been saving all my money for two years and I can’t even buy a laptop, let alone move

I was struggling today big time... Needed to hear this to get me back on track.
Glad the video could help brother!
Really enjoyed your talk, took lots of notes. Exactly what I needed to hear at this moment in time. Thanks :)
Hey man it’s been 2 years, all jokes aside did you actually get on track? Get back to me 💯‼️
"most people choose to live life by default, very few live it by design"
Luna L amen
i hate default
It's so ez uh?
The way 2020 is, default is the only setting
Jeez ....
4:39 1.Articulate your intent by tapping into your origin story. 6:42 2. Map your journey. 7:27 3. Make a contract with yourself. 8:15 4. Bring a rhythm to your "WHY" and ask how your going to attain your purpose in life. 10:38 5. Reflect
Thanks for the articulation and timestamps and watching
So, this was his "how do you find your purpose?" question? Thanks for translating! :-)
Thanks bro
A Ted Talk is finished in just a few short minutes, it is built and practised in over 250 hours, a speaker must be open to learning as they offer this piece of themselves to not just the audience, judges, coaches, themselves, but to a recorded world that will endure, endlessly. It takes a life time of experiences before some of these talks can be built and delivered, some are built on just one. In watching Bosco for years, as well as many other in my inner circle, I love watching each one of them share how they have achieved success, discover purpose and keep cheering on, with solid tools and experience their peers. Becoming mentors themselves. The examples in his talk let us also see how much he values, hope, confidence and how applying things we learn as we go.. reflecting and redirecting, along the way.
Thank you for the kind words!
Anyssa Carruthe
absolutely Anyssa Carruthe.. it takes a team to get here and then the speaker must be willing to learn. Beyond that, it takes talent which Bosco has.
PRICELESS GEM , THAT'S IT 👌KEEPING IT REAL SIMPLE , NATURAL & 2 THE POINT 🎯
Hii i am disia 19 year old who don't know her path.... Well honestly i was thinking about sucide i feel completely broken from inside from everyone on in my life ...but watching tedx these days gave my life positive impact ....it's helping me to believe in myself that yaa i can also fulfill my dreams goal by believing , working on it ,being consistency ...thank you tedx for saving me ....i have everyone in my life still i don't have anyone to share these hardest feeling

I’ve been having a rough days, this video was what I needed to hear. Purpose and momentum. Embrace the hero. Empower the purpose. Engage the future.
Thank you for watching
“Is your mind full or are you mindful?” 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great talk!!
Lauren Riets thank you for the kind words
@@BoscoAnthonyVancouveryou are amazing man
The school system needs a transformation so badly. Thank you for this talk.
I would agree and its funny as I have been approached and spoken for various schools after this talk - You are right we need transformation where the children of tomorrow are empowered to do more - Do you represent the school system? Thanks for watching and the kind words
I’ve been doing the same things for years. I feel like everyone is passing me up but I’m just too afraid to try something new.
At some point you got to break free from the mental shackles and try something new!
If you got sick and had only a week to live I bet you wouldn't hesitate so why not try new things people are going to be people regardless you never know if you have a couple minutes on Earth left...And when you're old on your death bed that Regret going to eat you alive 💯
Brandon Robinson good question you raise what would you do if you didn’t have much time left
@@BoscoAnthonyVancouver Travel the World and experience things I've never seen before. But that's difficult when you're funds are low and people are not open/Like minded when you have great ideas which is why I'm moving to California from Texas for my CZcams to do Vlogs and pranks and my plan "B" is to be a personal trainer...But I always put my self in that scenario as if I don't have time left so it gets my ideas rolling in and I start moving around instead of thinking myself to sleep. Which is why I'm really taking a "HUGE LEAP OF FAITH" in a couple of days moving to California to people more open minded....
@@BoscoAnthonyVancouver My Main CZcams is "Bearded Brandon"
"leave people better than where you found them."
Mattie Perry yup!
Watching this in 2019 to my breakfast and morning coffee. Truly inspiring and motivating talk, good job!
I realize that i need to reflect more on the two questions you mentioned. "What did i do of meaning today?" and "what am i gonna achieve tomorrow?".
Thanks for watching this video and I am glad the message is still relevant in 2019 :) Powerful questions to ask - More importantly it brings a sense of awareness to the science of what and why you do the things you do - Keep being curious!
What was the breakfast
I took so much away from this talk, I almost don't even know where to start. Thank-you so much Bosco for living your passion and for sharing it with all of us. You are an incredible inspiration!
Profound ...Getting unstuck and finding purpose is one tough task when you got no clue😥
It will never be easy but like anything else becomes more discoverable the more you explore - Thank you for watching this talk - Glad it resonates
GET UP , GET OUT and DO SOMETHING FOR YOURSELF . IF YOU DON'T TRY ANYTHING DIFFERENT YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET ANYTHING ANYWAY , SO WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ?
NOBODY COMING TO RESCUE U . 90% OF PEOPLE DON'T CARE AND THE OTHER 10% R GLAD IT'S U . REALITY CHECK ✔ OPEN YOUR EYES , MIND , EARS AND PAY ATTENTION TO THE SIGNS N LIFE . STOP PLAYING GAMES AND GET BUSY LIVING OR GET BUSY DYING . GOOD LUCK
a lot of things to learn from your talk Bosco. But one thing man, your humbleness speaks more than your words. kudos
TRULY AMAZING .......
Thank you glad you enjoyed it
here I'm crying and not knowing what to do with my life, trying to find some answers in ted talks
YOU'RE EITHER TRYING OR NOT , IF YOU'RE NOT DOING NOTHING , YOU'LL GET NOTHING ANYWAY , SO WHY MESS AROUND AND FIND OUT IT'S TOO LATE , YOU'RE ABOUT TO MISS OUT . IF NOTHING CHANGE, NOTHING CHANGES . WHAT'S YOUR PURPOSE HERE🌎 ANYWAY ?
GET BUSY LIVING OR GET BUSY DYING .
THAT SIMPLE , IF NOT S.O.S .!.
WAKE UP ⏰
Thanks for watching the video
Same
Remember when Ted Talks were great? I'm sick of the political, CRT, etc bs. This is a great example of a fantastic talk. Genuine self improvement and story telling.
I m glad you enjoyed it my man!
Bosco Anthony you are spot on! I enjoyed this thoroughly. It was the prescription I needed, while affirming that I am on the right path.
Great TEDx Anthony, I wish I was there to see you in person. It's inspiring how purpose, commitment and intent and take a person so far.
Bosco, you have articulated important strategies in a very understandable manner...well done!
Truly changed after listening to this talk I from henceforth live in my purpose Thank you Mr Bosco!
Nothing truly happens without reason. Glad I came by this video and learned a few valuable things that can help me embrace the person that I am, the purpose that I seek and the legacy that I want to leave when my time is up. Thank you, Sir, for the enlightenment!
Wow- this guy responds to all these posts? Amazing. I love the phrase "most live by default and few live be design" and even though I didn't hear that phrase in my head I knew it was the driving force behind me and my wife quitting our comfortable jobs and lives in NYC to move cross country and settle in a city that neither one of us had even visited. Marin County California is amazing and this is the hardest period in both of our lives. We both started 2 companies and had 2 kids within 4 years. It needs to be said that the reason most people live by default is because it is SO EASY. WORK WORK and more WORK and then more sacrifice is just part of what it takes to live by design.
Its the rat race that we easily fall into - thanks for the comments and yes I do respond to every post!
Just came across this today and listened to it driving to work and driving home and again at the gym them I shared it with my girlfriend. We both listened to it together. Well done my friend. It made me sit and make changes. Thank you.
Thank you for the kind words!
One of the best TED-Talks, if not the best!!!! Extremely useful and with lots of heart! Thank you, Bosco!
Awww thank you for watching
I believe nothing happens in your life with out reason! When I typed how to get unstuck and to stumble upon this ted talk, is so meant to be! My takeaway from this talk is to find purpose by design and finding mentors who can help me along the way! Thank you
Absolutely Dee - I am so glad you found this video and I hope the takeaways brought value to you. Mentors can be a great compass to ones life! Happy Trails!
Absolutely agree , Spot on perfect 👌
Thank-you Bosco for allowing your self to be vulnerable in order to share your stories and experiences with us. The authenticity of your speech is what makes it so impressive.The passion with which you share your purpose with others is incredibly motivating! I am so glad that we connected and I look forward to working with you and learning more!
Thank you Deidre! This means alot and I put it all on the stage!
Bosco is my mentor and this further demonstrates why. His message inspires one to want to become a better person and live a life full of purpose. I am so proud of this accomplishment and thank him sincerely for changing lives for the better...
I would be here even if it wasn't for your guidance, wisdom and friendship over the years! This talk is dedicated to your teachings my good friend!
Id like to connect with you guys somehow. Im ready, and fearless to pursue my path as an entrepreneur. I emailed Bosco today.
I can imagine the growth you may experience having Bosco Anthony as your mentor. I came across this talk today and I have listened to it more than 5 time (just today). His message awaken something in my. I must listen again.
@@dfdanfads I know you are meant to live an amazing and interesting life. You have been my mentor without knowing it since my son Jacob first told me about you. I can't wait to see what you become. I hope you are able to connect with Bosco Anthony and his crew.
Sylvia Herring
Oh my Jacobs Mom! Hello, I was not able to connect with Bosco and crew but things are good out in LA atm. I hope to see you and Jacob soon as I’ll be back in Denver around Christmas.
I came looking for this video because I’m sick of being mediocre & living in default I needed to see this & if you’re reading this you probably do to
Thanks for watching the video
I've watched this video about 5 times over the last few months. It's my go to when I need a reminder to keep pushing on! Thank you for your contributions in this world
Thank you Ariana for the kinds words and for watching the video - Means alot!
You have good points of view and it helped me to know another way of seeing things

"The key is to accept where you are in life. The key is to accept WHO you are in life."
This is gold that should go down through the ages.

The good :)
I've watched a lot of Ted Talks and I have to say this is one of the best ones. The content, logical progression and presentation - excellent - very well done! Thank you.
This guy is an incredible speaker. He conveys everything so effortlessly and perfectly. Great talk.
Thanks Shaun for the kind words and for watching!
Fantastic talk Bosco! You nailed it. It will be life altering for many especially in today's world.
I'm BLESSED and Highly FAVOURED🙌🙌🙌
Awesome talk. I love TED talks but this has become my #1. Not only is there passion there is something that reaches to my core. Thanks Bosco Anthony for achieving the item on your bucket lists. I have listened to this talk more than 4 times today. I can't get enough of it. Thanks
Truly awesome to hear this - glad you found it useful
Amazing. I am left better than I was found. I will share this with my friends and organize a vision-board hang-out.
Thank you so much!
I got rejections from last 18 years , I am 30 years old now , just quit a job 15 days ago to find something good in my life but now after quitting I realize I made a mistake I was thinking I will find something good but till now after applying for so many jobs and have no answer from anywhere made me more confused depressed and I am feel like a big loser 😐I am feeling stuck
tube tube you haven't made a mistake by quitting, but you're now in the "uncomfortable" zone of the unknown. Now is the time to look deep within yourself about your true purpose, however long that may take, and then go after it as if your hair is on fire. Use the power of the unknown to design the world you wish to live in. Godspeed.
zack jon thanks bro for the nice message
tube tube keep trying man. Took me a year to find a better job. It's tough out there. But, out yourself out there and let employers know you're interested.
Please do not compare your modern day privileged life neurosis with the atrocity of slavery in this country as you did in your opening remarks. Do not trivialize it in that way.
Hey, are things going well now?
I've accepted who I am and where I am in life. Its the patience that is frustrating, i believe in the life of design and the divine...Hopefully things gets better after I get these off my chest.
El Jay good things come to those that wait and create their own destiny
am grateful to hear bosco's talk. and happy to know that bosco has joined my son's enterprise, global rev gen. this is the highlight of my son's vision going back to when he started believing in exactly all the things bosco is on about. in his living room, on a computer, hashing out grand ideas following his ideals that were very similar to bosco's. now, 10 years later, bosco and my son, salvador klein, got together and the future is celebrated by anyone with similar philosophies. it takes courages to get up there and have your say. congratulations everyone who tries!
Thank you for watching Sonia - It is an absolute pleasure working with Sal and his team!
I really needed this video this morning, absolutely fantastic. I cAnnot even fathom how anyone can dislike this video based on this man's delivery.
Thank you! Much appreciated!
Great speech Bosco! While many have great stories and ideas, it's your intriguing storytelling abilities that set you apart.
To sum up
1) find your origin story
2) write down your vision
3)find your value /have a contract with yourself where your morals stand for
4) find rhythm to achieve your purpose
5) everyday ask your self what you meaning today and what difference will create tomorrow...
Finally most of the people live their life by default very less live it as they design
...
Are you willing to leave legacy and design your own life.
Thanks for watching
Congratulations on the milestone, Bosco. Some great points, insights, and reminders in your talk. Well done.
Thanks Amir! It means alot! As we say in swahili Asante Sana
It’s the same message espoused by countless ted talk speakers. Know who you are and what you want/where you want to go. I’ve still to meet someone who can articulate either yet plenty who find meaning in articulating the same old message, like my life’s purpose is to bleat on soothingly about your need to find your life’s purpose. That really seems to be it! It’s a circle.
Stuart P perhaps the articulation you seek isn’t in the message but rather in yourself? Food for thought... I am appreciative and grateful for the view and comment - thank you
I knew you were special the moment I first saw you. Well done and thanks for sharing your insights. You are an inspiration.
Embrace the Hero in you
Empower the purpose
Engage the Future
Amazing Bosco! Wow! feeling inspired and ready to chase epicness in an even bigger way in my life! Thanks for sharing - keep sharing your story, brother!
One of the best Ted Talks thus far!!!! As a woman living in my purpose this is confirmation!!! Blessings to you Bosco Anthony
Thank you for the amazing compliment! I am humbled by your kind words!
A very inspiring talk.. packed with gems of wisdom....
Synchronicity. This is what I was searching for while soul searching and I am so glad to have stumbled upon this. This is exactly what I needed to hear.
x80WildCat08x I’m so glad it resonates with you
I'm so bored and fed up with life that I couldn't even make it through this Ted talk ...
Sorry to hear my friend
Same. Im so over it today.
I know right. I'm sick of listening to people give my issue a name and speak on it and it still doesn't spark anything for me.
Move. Save money. Move. Practice budgeting and become a minimalist. Set a time frame. Move.
Help Me Rhonda ^
I've been feeling stuck for the past year and I wish I had a mentor but this Ted talk really made me self reflect. I'm going to watch it over and over. Thank you so much!
Feel free to reach out Destiny - Everyone needs a mentor!
Complacency is being normalized and applauded while most people demonize the existence of non-conformity out of fear of seeking the truth within us. Because of this, most people just tolerate the life they don’t really want to live just so other people will like them and just fit in. Because of that, they feel emotionally trapped and powerless. That’s when I started my personal development channel and finally think outside the box. I’m glad I did because it taught me so many lessons that I will never trade with anything.
I really enjoyed this Ted Talk. There are many who speak about Life Purpose n Goals But this talk in particular was very real, inspiring and had something u could take away n practice daily. You are an Amazing speaker n mentor. Wish u more success and abundance in the future.
Shalini Daryanani thank you for the kind words and watching the talk - I am glad you were able to relate to the message
Wishing you the same abundance and success
This was a message for me today 🙏🏼❤️
Am I ready to leave a legacy? I love that question. Amazing talk. Align my purpose with real momentum. That's very profound.
Thank you for watching
Thanks for watching the video
Thank you soooooo much Anthony!!!! Powerful! Powerful! I needed this now in my life. Liked the way you broke the steps down to fulfilling our purpose in life. I have watched this over and over again and still counting. Will continue to watch it till it takes root in my heart. The best way to show my appreciation for this speech, is to live it. I have decided to live my life by design. Just made a right turn away off 'DEFAULT' Lane.
This is amazing news! Happy to hear this - Keep living life by design!
This really opened my eyes man, i know its been 3 years but your a legend
Hey Daniel - I appreciate the love and the comments - 4 incredible years now and its been absolutely amazing - Blessed to have had this opportunity and platform to speak my truth - Its had a profound impact on my life too - Thanks for watching and the kind words
So specific, how to step forward with purpose and where to step ends never been so clear ever before.
Mohua Ali thanks mate for the kind words
It's so important everything he said, how use the life events to change our life. Good tips, we can use the five real life applications to feeling our porpose in life.
Thanks for watching
I am not really a "purpose" person but what struck me about this talk is living your life by design rather than by default. Over the next few days I am going to absorb that summary and see where it leads me. Thank you Bosco.
Thank you for watching - yes living life by design is the key message here
Bosco is one of the best influencer Iv met ever. He is also my mentor for which I am very lucky. His deep insights of different topics are amazing. Thanks so much for helping me and students like me to give career advice.
Thanks Inayat for the kind words - Excited to see your growth!

22 years old. The the last quarter of 2018 has been weird for me. I was studying, my spirit no longer wanted me on campus i felt weird everyday waking up and heading to school...Fast forward to 2019 something told me not re-apply for another its four months into 2019 and I dont know what to do with my life. I feel stuck and I'm counting on my spirit and intuition for answers.
I feel u man
Important message, well articulated Bosco, bravo!

Imagine how powerful and impactful our world would be?
I am becoming a Bosco disciple. Thank you for this speech and your message. It has resurrected my spirit... that has taken a serious beating lately. I love that i am profiting from YOUR jackpot Bosco
Thank you Kendall for the great compliment
One love. Keep sending those positive vibes.
Thank you! One love!
I haaaate the question "How are you." A. nobody cares, and b. all they even want to hear is the default answer of "fine." I get asked that question probably 10 times a day. It's like, do we really have to go through this song and dance all the time?
A better question to ask is what are you feeling today? Where is the pain? Whats bringing you joy? Its more intrusive and its the good intrusive we need!
This has been on my mind heavily these past few days..people only care if you say well, fine or good...Anything else they dont want to hear
@@JihadBunnydick or they gonna ask why, and you can't answer it....
Jihad Bunnydick people play it safe

Thank you. I am someone who is struggling to understand my WHY or purpose in life. I am simply drowning. I know I need to change n am feeling so much resistances within and I am fighting back.

So happy I watched this, God bless

Thanks Jake! Much appreciated
If you don’t have money, you’re going to be bored with life because you cannot do much that you’d be interested in doing. If you have money and you are bored, that’s a different story; that means you are devoid of passion or purpose despite having the resources to do what you might like. I know my purpose and I have a passion. But society doesn’t always allow you to pursue your passion. In my case, my purpose is to take care of my family and my passion is teaching elementary school. But it’s impossible to get a teaching job where I live and I cannot move for a few reasons. Additionally, I’m 53 and it’s hard to get hired fir anything after 40. I wish my problem was not knowing my passion rather than knowing it and being unable to pursue it and therefore I’m bored with life and unable to meet my purpose.
Maybe your purpose now is fulfilment and you bring wisdom to this world
