How many people criticizing his accent can speak two languages and how many of you have given TEDx Talks? I thought so.
Well I can speak german and english. And a little bit italian.
Also I don't mind his accent, I just don't understand everything.
No need to flash buddy.
So by that logic you can't criticize a bad film if you've never produced one? Well shit, guess we should fire everyone who reviews films.
gud
I just dont understand why people are so focused on the messenger instead of appreciating his courage and content of his message. The world has enough hate. It needs more compassion. Yes It's difficult to understand him. But CZcams has this cool thing called closed captions. I turned those on and all of a sudden I understood everything he was saying. And it's a very good message.
Never make fun of some one who speaks broken english... just remember they speak another language.
+noah 123 yo this is a good motto. I just moved to colorado from japan and im faking a japanese accent(im japanese but i can speak english fluently) to make school fun and i learned that people think im stupid because of my "broken english". I actually make videos about it on my youtube channel if your interested. (its called"Happy`s School Days)
+noah 123 we can make fun of this guy...so we encourage TED not to put stupid people who waste our time on the stage. I mean I don't need to hear him for 15 min telling me waking up early gets shit done.
+noah 123 Oooo!!! Are we supposed to applaud that? There's nothing worse than straining your ears trying to figure out what message somebody is teaching in broken English. If people can't understand you, it means "YOU CAN"T SPEAK ENGLISH!!
ovidiu dans You really don't need to hear him for 15 minutes telling you anything if you don't want to hear... you're a click away from not hearing it.
+noah 123 I don't get why you encourage stupidity? I speak 3 languages and I don't go on the stage wasting your time
His presentation was the perfect example of getting out of your comfort zone because when you do you learn
That's sound best
@@sana6980 thanks i appreciate your kind words
@@Bajrasumedh Thanks to you.... you made me happy and confused 😅 on what to say ......or actually what to type ^_^
@@Bajrasumedh it came out naturally..... but i like how you describe it
Mindblowing comment!
I see humanity in the comments.
i like your comment
Yeah I know right!
yes am i
Yess
I am watching this Video at 2.13 Am and You motivate me to wake up at 4.30 am .
Okay .
same here...!
3.28 here
+Jawad Ali 1:59 AM
+Vanessa Torres since 4:50 AM here
+Jawad Ali me 1:33 am
It's amazing how closed minded some people in the comments are. English obviously isn't his first language and he was nervous. So what... No need to be rude. I feel like this would have been better if he didn't have to speak in English. Yet, it is still fine just the way it is.
you're definitely right. people are so inconsiderate
Plus if you're really interested in watching this, you can turn subtitles on, right?
exactly...
he's portuguese
+Jules the heavy accent is very distracting. I suggest he speak louder
this speaker was so brave to speak a language that is not his own in front of hundreds of people! I congratulate him a lot and he made me want to get up early too
@@sauravmathpal1896 can you please stop insulting ur nationality..
Sleep and other stuff aside, This man encouraged hundreds of people who hesitate to speak in front of crowd with nervousness. ❤️
Huge respect to this guy. People, before you laugh or judge, just imagine yourself giving an important speech in another language you can't speak well. Always put yourself in someone else's shoes before you judge. Peace ✌
I will judge him because nobody forced him to speak. If you are asked to do something and you can't do it with efficiency, then you don't deserve to be praised. This is a public speaking platform directed towards English-speakers, meaning you have to be good with your English to speak here. He should do a TedTalk in his own native language instead. There are many bilinguals and even polyglots that spoke on TedTalk before. Learning English isn't an impossible task. Maybe if he spent more time preparing his language skills for a presentation, his presence here could have been justified.
@@sarban1653 SHUT UP !
@@sarban1653
Yeah, shut up. Wtf. He put challenges on himself and choose to risk and go to a bigger audience. I'm portuguese (he is too) and know that we are 10 million, while there are at least around a billion people understanding English.
So think before you write, will you? Nobody has the right to judge without knowing the conditions and even so we if we do it is with respect.
He is great person. My respects to you sir.
@@sarban1653 His English is good enough to understand the message. Stop nit-picking. He was brave enough to go out there. When people go to foreign countries, do you say "oh they should've stayed back and perfected their pronunciation or that tense". No because otherwise no-one would learn anything or get any better. Challenging yourself and putting yourself in uncomfortable positions is the greatest way to do anything - be it a TedTalk or simply a class presentation. So props to him.
I love the way he talking, he is a stutterer, but he is standing in front of a huge crowd and speaking, i really appreciate him
Wonderful.
I think his stutter is caused because his not fluent in English. I did the same when I was learning English.
@Mohammed Junior m
He could talk better, i mean practice more
Interesting. Let me finish what message he tries to send. Better sth related to stuttering instead of 4.30am topic.
It's touching, the viewers are putting aside their differences to defend this single humans presentation skills. We have come so far as a species.
I actually loved his sense of humour, why was nobody laughing!! Also he seems incredibly intelligent. This was so educational in so many ways.
I think they did. But the audio of the video is only from his mic...
If you pay extra attention you can hear some laughter.
I love this. he fucking tried and was nervous and didn't give up.
That guy wasn't breathing
Nana Sunshine he has speech impediment. I guess he is stammering rather than his nervous self speaking
yeah
He is obviously nervous and English is obviously not his mother tongue. But I didn't let that distract me from the powerful message he tried to share. Ted is all about sharing ideas. I am really grateful I watched this video since I also try to get up early and needed support and motivation to do so. He made me realize I am not the only crazy one to believe this can change your life! So I would like to thank him for sharing his wonderful journey with us! :)
I agree, it was inspiring
Hema Peswani he's from my country Portugal. we can do almost all accents, but in general we sound like him😅. I agree, the message is great !!😃
Hema Peswani listening to him gave me the same nervous sensation. if he might had been scared I feel his pain. English is not my mother tongue, I do always get escare speaking in public. however his message is very strong and meaningful.
Hema Peswani
"Mother tongue."
I love how he gives proof for everything he does
He is soo cute
Yep!✨
To gain self confidence you must do what you’re afraid of the most. Broken English or not, message was Well delivered. Bravo 👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
It's funny when you know that native English speakers are the most ignorant people when it comes to linguistics. Yet, they'd make fun of anyone else who's trying so hard to master their language... this comments section sucks!
Ahmed bk 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
cool sentence bro
yeah, I know. I'm not perfect. :3
The problem is most of these native english know only their own language.
The speaker did his best and learned a different language be like him idiots
Ahmed bk not to mention geography too.
Click on CC for subtitles. Then you can sit back and read what he's saying as he says it. You will be able to tell that the subtitles correspond exactly to what he's saying. Without the subtitles, you may or may not be able to understand him. His English is actually quite good. The problem is his accent, articulation, and inflection, all of which will probably improve with practice. NOTE: AUBG = American University of Bulgaria. Thanks for the talk!
+alwaysuseless I didn't know TED talks were supposed to be (ab)used to practice public speaking. There is an expectation regarding the quality of talks. This expectation hasn't been met: form or content
Salem Khairy Everything in life is both itself and practice. The content here isn't a problem (imo), even if you don't agree with his thesis. (I don't come to TED expecting to agree with or adopt every idea.) As for the form, i.e., the speaker's English, that shouldn't be a problem for anyone who can read English. Viewers who can't read the subtitles probably don't understand spoken English either.
+alwaysuseless thankyou now i can go back to 1.5 x speed
"His English is actually very good. The problem is his accent, articulation and inflection"... So basically, his English isn't very good then, is it?
iSquared I share your sense of humor. His vocabulary, diction (i.e., word choices & usage), grammar, and sentence construction are good. I know this because, with effort and focus, I can understand what he's saying. Thus, it's fair to assume that his reading, writing, and understanding of spoken English are probably excellent. The problem is his sound production. He needs to train his mouth, tongue, and ear to de-Bulgarianize his speech. Basically, he needs training with helpful feedback, including listening to recordings of his speech and comparison with a native English speaker. In short, your humorous comeback was well deserved. ;-)
After watching him, I am now confident enough to go for college presentation alone.
Yes!!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏good job! Onwards and upwards🇰🇪♥️♥️♥️from kenya
He was nervous yet he got up there and spoke.. Kuddos to that
You guys are so rude in the comments. He was obviously super nervous, have some compassion
Will Ballew id like to see you up there giving a Ted Talk in a second language. He might be well-spoken in general but maybe got nervous in front of the crowd? Pay attention to the message, not his delivery. Don't go through life so judgmental.
Yes, we shouldn't wear and to say him rude things
Exactly... you can see that he tried to deliver a message. That's what it's about. Thanks for this comment, hope this opens peoples eyes. Kudos to the courage this man had to deliver a speech on camera.
Well a TED speaker i feel should be, better at speaking, that being said this dude clearly does not know english that well, so it must be difficult but hey cant hate a guy for trying now.
+Hellofromtheotherside, You had 666 likes, so I added one more to avoid you satanic events.
if he got up at 4:20 maybe he would have time to check his mic before goin on stage..
It's not the mic, it's the thing called noise reduction. The sound engineer used it terribly..
Haha ikr I couldn't understand a thing he said 😅
+Dustin I was starting to wonder if I was the only one suffering
+dudleza yes, he is using a gate on his voice...horrible.
+asdf
dank.
He's fantastic. His ideas are very good. He shared this because he wants to help others.
You know what, I loved the content but what I loved more was to watch this guys struggle. Even though I can speak english in a btter way, I can't even stand still on a stage without drowing in my own sweat. This guy motivates me so much more. I am in love with thsi guy. Thanks a lot for this video.
How many have the courage to go on stage and share something that is useful to humanity, and on the other hand, people with native english never bother to speak another language so it is to admire this type of people that despite the difficulties overcome many things that others can not or have the courage to do. Very good job congratulations !!!!
Juan Paz great point
Juan Paz your so right juan!! people who don't have the courage to do things criticize the people who do. it's so strange that some people criticize people who try to help them and kiss the ass of people who don't care to help them. what a crazy world we live in
Juan Paz I have
Good!
What a thoughtful comment! Love it when I come across people like you Juan
This is very interesting. Ben Franklin said "early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." Add to this, the fact that most CEO's get up this early... is very interesting.
It has often been said that one hour of sleep before midnight is equal to two hours of sleep after midnight... and that for optimum health, we should get about the same number of hours of sleep before midnight, as we do after midnight.
However, there are a few problems with his presentation... a lot of talk about how interesting it has been, to get so much attention for doing this. I suppose that was an important change in his life--to become famous for doing something. But his popularity is not supposed to be the topic. Instead, what we would want to hear, is exactly how getting up at 4:30 a.m. every day profits a person. And very little time was spent talking about that.
I do not fault him for his difficulty speaking clearly in English. I would do much worse trying to speak in his native tongue, than he spoke in mine. (And after all, what is closed caption for?)
I noticed one fallacy... *I only need 6/7 hours of sleep.* He says he wants to sleep, but he doesn't need it.
That's like saying, I only need 4 glasses of water per day. I want more, but I don't have to have it.
Your body can make do with less of what it needs, but it lets you know that you would feel better if you went for the optimum amount.
If we would pay attention to our bodies, and give it all it needs -- no more, and no less -- we would be healthier.
+polly jetix "one hour of sleep before midnight is equal to two hours of sleep after midnight." that's just pain old BS. Sure the first 1/3 of our sleep is the deepest. But midnight has nothing to do with it.
👌
If you wake up after 6/7 hours of sleep and can't get back to sleep aren't you listening to your body telling you you don't need anymore sleep?
+polly jetix What our body needs depends on what we do, how the make of each individual body is and what the environmental circumstances are.. some would add to that even how each individual's mind works.. because living in a body is interpreting its signals, and every mind is slightly different at interpreting.
Setting a standard like 'drink 2 liters of water each day" like they did a couple years ago, can lead to many people feeling good when doing that, and a small amount of people dying from it, because their circumstances were too far from the average.
It is a common fallacy in thinking these days, to think that what is normal, the norm, the average.. that this is 'good' and all else is bad.. In the same way, people who fall outside the norm or normal are being stigmatized as 'bad'.. this society is a bit sick.. in my opinion. To accept such illogical ideas about reality.. that's usually called a mental illness. ;)
kneejo I couldn't answer better myself and I also think like that. This society is still too stick to ties and bounds! Good point!
My secret to whatever success I've had in life is listening and learning from wise people. This man is one of them.
I think he was nervous but his english was good. Not easy being on TED. Let’s be kind everyone. :)
I'm not being a dick but I had to turn this down and turn on subtitles to make it watchable.
Thanks, much better.
The information is what is important so it is good to get out with the best efforts. So glad that you were not discouraged by language barriers.
That's exactly what I did xD
Daniel Rocha Je parle français parfaitement merci.....und Deutsch
ook een beetje nederlands, maar het is niet geweldig...
Ich spreche auch Deutsch (aber noch nicht so gut :P) I might be wrong, but from my german I could tell you said in dutch: "and a little dutch, but it is not good" ook = und (?); een = ein ; beetje = bischen (?); nederlands = Niederlandisch; maar = aber (?) het = er (es); is = ist (endlich bin ich sicher xD); niet = nicht; geweldig = gut. Stimmt es?? am I right? xD
Good job. I will start doing this! 8am is a good start
+Troy Stephens hows it going?
***** Seriously? Like are you for real, or just shitting around?
***** Hahaah, I tought you knew him irl.
welllllll I woke up at 12:30 today
+Troy Stephens Try heading to bed with all electronics shut off at 10 p.m... and no peeking at the phone.
Pick up a good book, and read by low light. Take a melatonin, and after 1/2 hr. lights completely out.
You'll wake up at a decent time, unless your body needs a lot of sleep. In that case, start to bed 1/2 hr earlier every night, until you find the time that gets you enough sleep, and also gets up up about 6 a.m. You just might need 12 hours a night. People under stress often do.
He's so brave and courageous, there's a lot of people who don't have this courage to speak a foreign language in front of public
This guy is full of courage!
Don't know why...but this Guy gave me more inspiration than other FLUENT Ted videos Combined!
Same with me:)
same with me
same here!
Yes sir , it does
Amen bro!
🙏
This guy is my new hero 💪 To give such an important talk in a language other than your native tongue must be a freakishly scary thing to do!
actually chinese is spoken more than english but i still agree with ur point ritesh (partially)
Ritesh Khurana why are americans that can't speak spanish in my country?, I mean they can't even ask for the ubication of a bathroom. 😂😂😂
Nana Saldarriaga ubication is not a word, it would be location. Lol
SoulfulTakeout Currently I am learning 3 languages at the same time 😀 2 in school and 1 in home:)
To ritesh you are correct that English is the master language of the world. But there are plenty of Chinese living in Great Britian for years who can't speak any English as they live and work in a bubble with their own kind, and the council will translate benefit letters into the immigrant languages to make things easier for them.
I love how he talked about how his neighbors got inspired by him, and he decided to blog it and inspired even more! Also, the support he felt from the people around him being inspired by him I'm sure was very supportive! Also, I'm in love with sleep, so happy to know I don't have to sleep less haha
The courage that it takes to deliver a message in a language that wasn't spoken in your home is immeasurable. Thumbs up brother!
oh god stop complaining. he can speak at least two languages. most north americans can barely speak english, their native tongue. don't deny it. try it, if you must with the provided subtitles, or just quit but don't comment mean stuff. that's just unnecessary.
+panicatdx it's not the language, it is the technical problems with some of these talks we are complaining about… before they were cool, but now as they expanded they went berserk, not just because it's free we have to take it quietly!
The Ultimate Weapon that's cool, i can speak 3 languages fluently. but what does that have to do with my comment?
The Ultimate Weapon what the hell did you learn sanskrit for? xD
Well, that was a good reason, I hope they had anything good to say...
Hip hop music is detrimental to the structure of the English language
He’s so adorable bless him for being so brave and delivering a presentation that isn’t in his native language
mimi hes portuguese
yup. went to several big/ small teds in munich ony to find half speakers presented in german... you need courage to be innovative
Mate you’re looking down at someone because of how they speak
As an immigrant myself I understood everything he said.

Hey Mister " Native English", try to have 10 million views with your perfect accent !!!!
I say amen to your comment 🙌🏻🙏
waking up early gives you time to actually prioritise the things you want to prioritise. No one will distract you and you wont be distracted by other tasks.
Burning Boat that's exactly how I feel when I do things between 1 and 3 am tho lol
I guess it doesn't matter if its early or late as long as you have that time!
Burning Boat right, and no distractions... unless u binge watching TedTalk haha
Bingeing TedTalks... I call it productive procrastination :)
Burning Boat well at least I'm ironing laundry and paying bills while I'm doing it ;)
he did a great job i can tell he was nervous but he never gave up
to the 15k people who disliked this, you try to speak a language you aren't comfortable with in front of hundreds of people
Joseph Adamic i think the mic doesnt work very well.
His accent uugh
Yeaah exactly ... respect him for it
so true. he did a great job, not really making any grammatical errs..
Hats off !
This is so good! I love that he is up there speaking with confidence. God is good!
He estado viendo varios videos de esta conferencia y quiero que sepan que esta fue la que me hizo llorar, la que realmente me llego al alma. Tengo meses aprendiendo Ingles en Chicago, y todos los dias recibo burla acerca de mi acento y obvio por lo que me falta aprender. Este chico le esta hablando no solo a esas personas!! le esta hablando al mundo entero que ahora puede ver este video en youtube. Gracias por inspirarme Filipi Castro. Y POR FAVOR GENTE SEAMOS MAS LOS QUE APLAUDEN, LOS QUE AYUDAN, LOS QUE FELICITAN!! SEAMOS MASSSSSSSS!!
Como vas con tu Ingles? Saludos desde Chicago.
Paola and Pedro, please understand that any native speakers of English who would make fun of someone trying to learn the confounded language is probably only a marginally intelligent monoglot who was raised to be insular and afraid of learning anything new. English is an amalgam of so many different ancient and modern foreign languages that even most native speakers have lifelong difficulties spelling, speaking grammatically, and pronouncing it. I made only the highest grades in English through all my years in school, but my five younger siblings made only average grades or below, and we were raised in the same house, by the same parents, and went to the same schools. Good luck with your continued efforts to learn while enduring the negative attitudes of small-minded people who, most likely, will never even TRY to learn a second language.😊
I go to sleep at 11:00 each night. I get up at 7:00. I eat fish twice a week. I ride my bike. I watch Dr.Who. I have regular bowel movements. I bake cookies. I read one hour per day. I like pea soup. I wore red socks last week....can I do a Ted Talk?
no
Yay hello there fellow whovian
Dr.who hhhhh
OOOO SHOTS FIRED
hahahahaha exactly what i thought.
It's past 4:30am, still awake...
SAAAAME
I wish I could sleep PAST 4:30am.
The stupidest things one sometimes encounters /rolleyes
because you're on CZcams
i have to get up at 4:00 everyday... its 11:25pm btw
same......
Let's not forget that waking up early DOESN'T always mean you HAVE to be "productive" , maybe it's about catching and experiencing a sunset, taking a walk at dawn before the world wakes up or spending extra time with your furry friend while drinking your coffe/tea.. it's different for everyone and just as beneficial.
Hes the bravest guy I have ever seen
And I have inspired.
Casually watching this at 2am
Lelouch Yagami saw your comment saw the time 2 am sharp freaky
Literally the only time I watch Ted Talks
saaaaame dude
you are 2 hours ahead... and you might have more change...
hahaha
Cool, I can prepare my own TED Talk called : How going to bed at 4.30 am can change your life.
Lol, I know right :)
Lmfaoooooooooo jajajajjajajjajaj I love this comment
LoL
Hahaha!!
👍
You need a lot of confidence to make such speech in front of this huge crowd ❤️ huge respect for him ❤️❤️
Speaking in front of knowledgeable people is already a big achievement in itself❗️And importantly, he must have a unique idea to share to a large audience and platform to be given that opportunity. Well done, Felipe. 🌞👏🏻💪🏼
Maybe if he woke up at 10:00 he would have rested enough in order not to feel so nervous and confused on stage.
+CzechRiot You know that he probably goes to sleep around 9 right, otherwise he would crash during the day
you know I was being sarcastic right?...
CzechRiot In your case yes but some people are really that dumb to mean it
Classic
***** I guarantee that you cannot guarantee that. But if your think you can really guarantee that, let's arrange some sort of bet. Let's see if you guarantee your statement with money. Put your money where your mouth is.
Feel like i shouldn't be watching this at 1am... :D
Stephen BitDecrypt me too
Stephen BitDecrypt haha..same feeling here
Same
Stephen BitDecrypt im watching this at 12:30am m8888o

This was so much more special and motivating than other ted talks!!! Bravo for speaking so well!!! I am SO proud of you. Lots of love 🖤🖤🖤
Hats off to this young man for his courage and determination. Be blessed my friend and may you go from glory to glory.
I try to go to sleep at 4 30...............

Why not 3:30?
+Albert Einstein Why do we even go to sleep?
Because of this man ,I wanna go on stage and give speech on anything in English,being myself because I feel no fear in me to sutter this man give me such courage to speak
I’m an English learner in Japan. Thank you for giving us courage and inspiration!! I’m sure you motivate so many people in the world.
I'm so happy that I watched this video . This guy has motivated me so much to speak in front of an audience and now I feel really confident and ready. English isn't my native language but I can speak it quite well, still I feel a loss of confidence and expressiveness when it comes to speak in public. although he's nervous yet he tried. Proud of him
Wow you’re so nice and positive! God bless! ❤️
You're so sweet! I bet you will be an amazing speaker.
flipgsp thank you so much :D
Makayla Moore thank you for your sweet words :)
Be proud in accepting and speaking your own language as well.
Regards
My wife and I get up everyday at 4:00am and we walk every day, we have done this for about 12 years.
Respect to both of you! I'm still struggling to start getting up at 5am. I've just visited your channel and noticed that you're raw vegans (or something). I am also a vegan ))
Woah that’s amazing
Ronnie & Minh that's so good xx
Ronnie & Minh life goals
You could sleep 30 minutes more. That second sleep is the best.
I see his bravery and the will to share his knowledge to others. It's not his own language and I wouldn't feel at ease to talk that much in front of huge crowd if I were him. Thank you so much for sharing and I'd like to adopt this in my life, starting form 6am first.
It's amazing how his nervousness in the start was pushed behind towards the end of the video.The stage and audience is incredible for people like him to share their experiences. Glad that I watched it! :)
Kudos to this guy, shit i wouldn't have the balls to do this. To get on stage and explain a concept to an audience while being filmed and speaking in a foreign language is not easy.
ط جححح في حدا من الشباب في شي اسمه محمد اقسم بالله العظيم انه رأى الرسول في المنام أن يكون هناك فرق غ من البيت الأبيض في بيان لها اليوم غ من البيت الأبيض في بيان غ من البيت الأبيض في بيان لها اليومي في شي اسمه ع ع ع ع ع ع غ من البيت الأبيض في بيان لها اليوم في شي اسمه غ من البيت الأبيض في بيان لها اليوم في شي
Speaking in a foreign language can be easy, but it takes time to master it. If you are not fluent enough in a language, then your brain needs more time for processing the information, before you can actually say the foreign words. That's why this guy had a few pauses in his talk. While this guy has a seemingly good level of English language, he seems to not be natural speaking it, what might suggest that he has not practiced speaking enough, just yet.
Why not wake up at 4.20?
+Fabian Guerrero I do that everyday :)--*
+Fabian Guerrero Why not just not sleep at all, ever?
+Fabian Guerrero maybe 4:25
BLAZE IT LOL
+Fabian Guerrero haha that was clever
He really did a great job bro.... loved his confidence...
“Every little thing that you do every day may lead to be a big thing and a surprising thing in the future.”
watching this at 4:30 am, before sleeping.
Giuseppe Zagaria lol
I want to know how waking up at 4:30 will change my life, but I can't even make it past the first two minutes of the video.
2 minutes...?!? Bitch please, you didnt get past 1.
+Joshua Lyness
I have to admit... You're right.
30 seconds
+robot zombie
You're right, too.
+UberHerbert 977
Maybe.
This was wonderful, I wake up sometimes really early and I have gone outside, and at 400 am or 430 am it is a different world.
He is amazing! I’m here because this video has just reached to me in China so I came to see the original one. Thank you for sharing your amazing experience through even though you were nervous. Your persistence can be another really motivational lesson for me!👍🤛🏼
I don't care about his accent. He is inspirational and revolutionary! Thanks for the advice! 😀
could you pls sum up what he is trying to say. Pls and thnx! i do agree with you, I do admire him for standing up there and inspiring people.
Aww bless his heart. They should've put subtitles on this maybe people wouldn't complain so much. He is trying though. I liked the point about snoozing and losing. I am the queen of snoozing. I'll be hitting snooze for like 2 hours lol
i dont even know the exact translation for snooze but i know i can relate lol
Kamikan 22 Lool I watched this video, and i'm still snoozing. sighs
Finding Faye your comment made me snooze lol
i think to avoid snoozing you need to make a mourning routine, like making yourself to look the phone only after you wake up and make some stretches or yoga, or just 15 min of deep breathing, and just then see your mails or messages.
First couple of times should be annoying but then it become natural and snoozeless (?)
Finding Faye there are subtitles
1 month later...still snoozing
Such a simple and effective talk! Look how passionately he is speaking!
What an awesome young man. Such admiration for him. He has an amazing future ahead of him.
Watching this at 1 am is not gonna help me wake up at 4:30!!!
same here, 1:35 am haha
2:26 am
Jesus Potato j
lol I stayed up for a day
The highest time I stayed up is 3 days not 3 decades
Every day I wake up at 4:45, but not because I want to do, but because I have to take the bus to school at 5:30... :(
I have to be at school at 7:00 and i thought it was a big deal but reading your comment i feel better :'3
Aleksandar Franchini I pity the bus driver
That is so so early!
same with me
Massive respect for this guy. Loved the way he explained it all. What a braveheart soul.
He’s so adorable and don’t even get me started with his bravery
Turn the CC on
tysm
ty
and turn the speed up yo
lol its really funny on 2X the speed
:)
the applied noise reduction makes it really hard to listen to it...
+R2Mintus There is definitely a noise gate applied.
+Daniel Becker plot twist: he really talked like that
+xhyosukx I think it's an expander rather than a gate, as a gate will cut out noise completely unless it reaches a set volume amount, whereas an expander will make the quiet parts quieter. Nonetheless someone still stuffed up the audio on this.
+Daniel Becker Its baterry in wireless microphone, we have lessons and every third week we hear this, so we went ready with battery replacement!
+Daniel Becker I put a Compressor via audio hijack and got a lil better…
Language doesn't matter.... Its the confidence that matters.... Many of us with good language doesn't even have the courage to face such a crowd... I salute for his bravery.....and the message he conveyed really is inspiring
It was 5yrs ago but still this talk is significant up to this days. He cannot speak fluent English but all his words are making sense rather than a fluent speaker speaking non sense. Thank you for this.
I wake up at 4:20. Wake and bake
Yussss
mah bruh!
no! it has to be 4 30, 4 20 is not good enou- nvm😂😂😂
I will follow you !
so much respect for this guy getting up there and going for it even though he was nervous. I really want to try this out now!
If the way he talks is distracting of you though, put it on mute and use the subtitles, its helpful!
Amelia Schroeter i was going to stop watching this as I had a hard time understanding him, thank you for this tip!
Amelia Schroeter u r so sweet and awesome
Thanks for tip
Amelia Schroeter oh yes turn on caption
You'll be a nervous Nancy huh
I'm so glad to watch this video. This man proves that nothing is impossible. He is so confident and daring. He made me confident enough to come out of my comfort zone and perform well.
I am a live example of what he presented. I would like to add one more advantage of waking up early-
1. One become more confident and comes out of guilt of not being active. Besides, we Indian belive that at 4:30AM the atmosphere is full of positive energy and one feel more comfortable towards life 😁
i wake up early every day before sunrise so i can pray the morning prayer. nothing new here the best time of the day is from after morning prayer till the kids get up
+zaboora El rijal Morning prayer.. haha.. :D moron.
+15godfather1 Trolls? I'm 100% serious.
Well in Ireland during the winter the sun doesn't rise till 8:30 and I gave to wake up at 6:30
+BluJuiice
your point? I don't live in Ireland so the "fajr" (morning prayer) time in Ireland has no bearing.
I just checked the fajr pray time for Dublin on www.islamicfinder.org/ and the latest is 6:34 in January. So if I did live in Dublin I would still have to get up at least at 6 to make the prayer at 6:34. the prayer take place before sunrise. and in June it is 2:55. so once again I don't see your point.

moron? why?
I prefer 4 AM. Go to bed at 8:30 - 9:00. It is natural to me. Do what ever is natural for you. Depends on the individual.
You should have your own TEDx Talks video. What you said actually made sense unlike this video.
OldsXCool I just know what works for me. Must admit I didn't get anything out of the video either.
Same here hehe..
Same...
jealous of u, my brains works better at night, so stayed so late but hate because lost time ... any tips for me to change that ?? ehat u think about your brain? always there are some extra factors...
I just love the way he presented it... He is so confident and that's
Wat is more imp than anything ... Huge respect to him
I memorise the moment when I quit my speech in college with just 2 sentences.
Thanks to my job which made me able to talk to different people from different countries
Audio aside, there was minimal content in that talk. He said he gained 2 hours of work but slept for the same amount of time. So either he just worked for longer or he became more efficient, and if more efficient, then in what ways?
+Alex Buccheri I agree. I really think that the TED brand has fooled me into listening to this talk. There are some good TED videos, but this isn't one of them.
+Salem Khairy i agree too. the quality of tedx is often lower anyway but in general i think that also ted itself decreased...
+Salem Khairy that sums it up pretty well.
I believe he is referring to more productivity. In the morning it's usually quiet, so if you have the will power you will wake up, get ready and start your day. Whereas at night your tired of the day and less productive because all you want to do is get ready for bed. I hope that makes sense the way I explained it to you.
I absolutely agree with this. I found myself doing this naturally on my spiritual awakening. I find I only need 6 hours sleep and the quality is amazing.
Speaking of spiritual awakening, do you know anything about the precautions/things to consider prior to doing pineal gland meditation?
Pamela Arsena do u have "3rd eye"?
VICENZOFABBRICACATRECSDS😯😃😇😨😙😪🙆💏👼💋💔👇👜💴🔮📛😇💔
i did the same thing too
I've been trying this, I'm spiritual as well however I have insomnia, do you have any advice that can help me? Much love~ :)
I wake up at 4am and workout up to 5am... I then take a cold bath and ready myself for the day... It gives you a huge jump on the competition for the day... Your thoughts are so clear... You are firing on all cylinders through the day. Efficiency is up up up.
Watching in 2020..and this is really inspirational ...
Bless up TED..🙌
Welcome to waking up early where safety is our number one prorty
haha!
hahaha
+MatthewV Dweller-CTN omg yes that's perfect! 😂
Fuck morning.
lmao crazy Russian hacker
TO EVERYONE WHO DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT HE IS SAYING, USE THE GODDAMN SUBTITLES, THIS WAS A INTERESTING TALK!
Thank you for sharing. I really do appreciate the effort you made and the lives you helped. You also spoke from the spirit. God bless you!
I really enjoyed this Ted Talk.... Felt so casual!
