[@michaelmethic1522]

GOOD AFTERNOON!@!@@!!!!

[@user-je1hi6jy1i]

Go to settings change audio to mono

[@jameskoh3463]

The mono speaker of my iPad: “Oh? What’s the difference?”

[@jackmcfarland4168]

Same

[@whiterabit09]

Give yourself the permission to lose, as long as you work at your full potential.

[@dianaabdulrasyid4766]

oohh loves this

[@patrickstogsdill74]

@James Hill I think that thinking makes a big pushocological difference

[@ashleyvalentin3210]

Loved it. When I think "challenge", I think about growth and my potential as a result. When I think "threat", my brain starts to shut down and I can't think on my toes. This talk helps deliniate perception that results in optimal performance.

[@mindmatter2500]

Brilliant. Adopted his "C or T?" method and already can sense its effectiveness. Thanks Tom.

[@twentyseven8532]

My right ear has now maximum performance under pressure. cheers a lot!

[@midastouch9977]

Wow, this might have been the best ted talk I’ve watched

[@Lysana7]

Great great talk!!! Thank you so much for the advice... it´s funny how one single word can change your entire thinking and emotions...

[@nandosfanaccount]

Look at your performance under pressure!
Why do we do this judgement, emotions, perceptions that we are creating.
How our perceptions impact our performance.
Steps of success
Genetics Dedication practice skill confidence teamwork Realistic Understate your abilities it will set you up for success
C or T?
Challenge or Threat?
If you think it’s a threat you’ll be scared if you look at it as a challenge you get more powerful stronger excited. 🤪
W or L
Win or Lose
Negative don’t think of win or lose. Choose C or T.
This is for people who want notes!!!! 🤪💖😍😂😭🤤💋💫🌈🛍🌻🎄🌟🙊😏💸😎🤮😬😅😐😘🌚🌞👋🔥😮🌛😊🍗

[@loganm2766]

[@aakashsingh9560]

I find it something really interesting and exciting ..really new concept ..thanks a lot sir and TEDxYOUTH

[@wriskytv5594]

Thanks Tom, that helped a lot!!

[@Realism91]

When I think of something as a threat now I'll just think of it as a challenge, get through easier and calmly. Kind of how I usually react just without the keywords, will try this next time I get in my head though.

[@anthonymmeek]

Simple. Powerful.

[@Lightflames85]

I am gonna try this out. just show how the little things we say to ourselves matter.

[@jimbob4750]

This is really good I tested i5 and it has amazing powers

[@michael567jober]

This is a problem I have at times and maybe that what truly holds me back in life. I really needed this thank you

[@tolieu1817]

[@rogerkreil3314]

[@RAM_DOS]

Embracing the challenge is conquering the threat!

[@halopines1600]

Thank God i thought it was my earphones!

[@gabbouissoumota6581]

AMAZING

[@m7maddhn343]

Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you

[@Brother_mar]

OMG, i just back tested a few moments where i thrived under pressure and moments where i crumbled, and I remember perceiving all my successful moments under pressure as challenges and moments of possible growth. On the contrary, I remember feeling threatened, weak, and inadequate in the times i crumbled under pressure. I was doing this C or T mind switch without actually noticing. Thank You!

[@erikkarpify]

Man this guy is the tennis goat

[@aditimeena309]

Great !

[@rufinomenguito8458]

What happens to my left ear? Accidentally become deaf.

[@muhammadzakiahmad8069]

If you are wandering in the comments thinking that it works or not then let me tell you "IT WORKS".

[@ranawakim]

What's with the sound? Usually Ted fixes the audio....

[@nsombakuZambia]

best part of the video is how the audio was painfully quiet

[@juancarlosvalencia7975]

My right ea.. ah never mind

[@tundraotto]

2017....with mono-audio? - for real??

[@karn.anurag13]

Wow. Only my right ear enjoyed this video

[@michaelmethic1522]

Best comment.

[@wertiaaudit5746]

Can someone sum this up

[@photigodfrey460]

Could a Threat be working under pressure 24/7. I honestly need to understand this because I keep being hard on myself. I currently work for a marketing agency as a motion graphics and graphic designer and I constantly sleep for 4 hour and working over time most of my time. Could this be a threat to my overall health or am I just complaining unnecessarily?

[@chancemholton6611]

So pretty much flight or fight theory

[@philipmccaffrey6407]

Get back to work CPT! It's amazing how Officers have all of this free time while on Active Duty. You don't see any SPC's doing these briefing.

[@listener7117]

"Mom i need new earphones" 😭

[@pdrvalo]

My left ear feels lonely

[@simanyemaqungu]

😂 😂 😂

[@andrinzuellig6511]

What does "t" mean? And did he win the firsr match against the second opponenet 6:1 6:2?
I haven't heard it clearly.
Thanks

[@francesco_mvsicc]

It means threat.

[@gabfrid2536]

audio not working with headphones

[@ptulip]

The sound is bad on this!

[@tombooze74]

It's all very good but all he's doing is jumping on the bandwagon, how many SF are doing this these days

[@nowshadsuhail254]

c

[@davismendosa9493]
