[Music] Did you know that one in three of us are emotionally neglected. So that means in a room of 200 people here today, 66 of us are emotionally neglected.

[Music] [Applause] At some point in our life, we all face uncertainty. Whether you're making a big life decision or simply trying something new, there is always that nagging question repeating, will this actually work? But what if instead of guessing, we test it?

Hello everyone. Before I begin, I want you all to take a moment and imagine this. You are standing at the starting line. You are standing at the starting line of the toughest challenge of your life. Your heart is racing. Your mind is full of doubts. There's lot of noise and crowd around asking. But you can hear only one voice which is inside your head asking can I really do this?

[Applause] Let me start with a simple question. How many of you can say I'm truly truly happy with my life. Here's something interesting.87% of people believe they'll be happier if they have more money. But is that really true. I used to think so too.I believe the success, wealth, and status were the keys to happiness. But then one day in a small village in Vietnam, I met a family that completely changed my perspective.

It's narcissism. The word narcissism ...
