    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    I wish to be Empowered rather than working with such terrible bosses and hear them breathing at your back every seconds that's horrible to be employed.

    and I thought she was actually going to say something. I was naive.

      You're right. This was over 17 minutes of talking, but nothing was said.

  • @krumuvecis
    @krumuvecis Před 7 lety +11

    what is she talking about? I'm unemployed and can't find a job :(

    If someone can write at which minute real talk starts because at 8th minute it still doesn't.

    Work for living? Work for spiritual satisfaction? The difference is a huge impact to your life.

    I didn't mind her deliberate slowness. And as a 5-year-old I failed to register the lesson about empowerment rather than employment ... and I am not alone in that failure. She spoke to me.

    17 minutes of my life that I'll never get back. Was there actually a point to this speech?

    The only thing greater than power of idea is the power of *action* (so go out there and *act* !)

    A talk full of clichéd quotes. "Encourage entrepreneurs", summary of the entire talk.

    If a person does a job he likes, he never works. That is the key to freedom from servitude.

    For those who think that the speaker speaks too slow, you can play the video at 2x speed and subtitles (just in case you miss something).

    Yea it's nice to be empowered and not have to worry about employment when you have a fat bank account backing you up. Must be nice.

    "I don't like self help books" And all I heard were quotes from self help books. Sorry if I'm harsh but...

  • @multhalib
    @multhalib Před 11 lety +3

    all this time of watching ted talks, i thought the right question we should be asking was "AM I HAPPY?"

    • @ami7mina
      @ami7mina Před 6 lety

      Yes that is important to first know ourselves and serve ourselves before we can serve others. The satisfaction/happiness within will grow from inward to outward. Law of attraction.

    If you mean by servant, providing a valuable service to someone, I don’t see the issue. Or serving a useful role or purpose for your peers. Service does not necessarily equal slavery. People receive compensation for valued services. And then they may or may not have some crossover with their natural gifts, interests, passions, etc.

  • @Granamir71
    @Granamir71 Před 7 lety +16

    Nice speech. Everythig is true, except she couldn't say that. She just changed her side from employed to empowered (from servant to entrepreneur) that uses employee. Come and talk again when you have a solution for everyone not just for you.

    • @DF-ww3fs
      @DF-ww3fs Před 4 lety +1

      The entrepreneur has thier own individual own thoughts they have formed on thier own behalf... when your a Servant you embody the ideas and the mindset of the person who employs you... The word entrepreneur points out one individual, being a servant you part of a bigger system that you have no control over whatsoever.

    • @RikLeedsMusic.77

      Exactly...this speech is straight double talk.

    • @RikLeedsMusic.77

      She's using the word "entreprenuer" repeatedly as a buzzword...it's a ruse.

  • @ronaldlogan3525
    @ronaldlogan3525 Před 4 lety +1

    The privileged and the elite who live in a bubble can spout off about some future society that has somehow transcended capitalism with that cute little smile on her face she does not acknowledge the enormous suffering that is about to be inflicted on the people that are currently operating in an economic system that has them trapped in their jobs and that their jobs are about to be replaced by automation. The truth is that a good deal of the population is about to get dumped out of the economy and will be homeless, jobless, and without food or medicine. But nice little pretis like this one will still be jabbering on and on about how wonderful the future will be.
