Uh, may I request everyone to please stand up. Everyone's been rather quiet hearing all these wonderful speakers, but everyone's been quiet. So, can I have everyone with their hands up in the air.Yeah. And then hands down. And then hands up. And like a friend says, put one leg up and then put the other leg up.Uh I don't. Come on. Put the other leg up.Very good. Don't fall. Don't fall.Very good. Be in the moment. Be Yeah.The whole discussion is about that. Very good. Please sit down.I'd like you all to pleas ...

Que mundo invisível existe por baixo da sua voz? O que sai pela sua boca? Ou o que deixa de sair pela sua boca? O que você se cala? O que você silencia, engole ou deixa de falar, ou a maneira que sai pela sua boca, se é com confiança, com insegurança, com medo ou com potência, é resultado de tudo que tá acontecendo da boca para dentro. Para você e eu acessarmos o poder da nossa voz, é preciso ter coragem de olhar para dentro. E eu descobri isso quando eu tava no auge da minha carreira como repórter de telev ...

Sometimes a single phone call can just change everything for me. That call came 4 years ago. It was about my aunt.She needed heart surgery. The day which she needed heart surgery. The day she got admitted to the hospital, she pulled me aside and said she's fine managing her condition with medication and she did not think surgery was required.But the doctors did not agree. They were absolutely certain. As for them, as per them, there's a 95% chance the surgery will get succeeded.95% it sounded safe. It felt ...

In this life, you can either choose to embrace the uncertaintity you experience or let it consume you and eventually and you these were my thoughts after coming across Sylvia Pla's fig tree analogy in which she illustrates a paralysis of choice through her starving self sitting at the crotch of a fig tree hesitant to pick up a fig and satisfy her hunger because all the figs metaphorically represent different life possibilities. This overwhelms her and fuels her indecision. As she's left sitting under the tr ...

A very good morning. It's uh it's an honor and delight for me to be here. Uh before I start my talk, I'd just like to have a quick show of hands.How many people in this beautiful audience have a phone in their hands. A very quick raise of hands. >> In their hands.Absolutely. So, yes. So, almost everybody has a phone.Imagine a classroom which has learners and every learner or student in that classroom has a device. The same device that opens worlds of knowledge can also open worlds of harm. Technology connec ...

[applause] It was that time of the year again, the family gathering. The dining table stretched endlessly, heavy with food and heavier still with the weight of so many of those familiar faces, all pressed together in one room. At one end, my grandfather began his impassion lecture on test cricket's history, insisting that no modern batsman can ever replicate the patience and the technique of the golden era greats. He spoke with even more fervor as the India England series play on television using every sing ...

[applause] Have you ever heard of the word sder. For me, I take it more like an experience. The realization that everyone has lives that are just as complex as your own.And it happens when I'm on a plane. You see, I'm an overinker. I'm a people watcher.So, I'm on a plane and I start to think that person in front of me might just be falling in love with someone. That person behind me might want a divorce. I see so many people with so many different experiences, dreams, and goals.And I think you and me, we're ...

Thank you. Thank you for that elaborate introduction. There are moments when the world holds its breath all together.COVID was one of them. In early 2020, cities went silent, borders closed, and uncertainty was global. While the crisis was shared, the choices were not.Not all the nations had the same access, the same resources, and certainly not the same margin for error. For some nations, the question was how fast science could move. For some other nations, the question was whether survival could afford sc ...

pool, snookers, billiards, or any other game of the sort. All generally involving eight balls and a long stick. Pool was a big part of my childhood, not just because my family liked it, but because my dad picked it up in high school.For him, it was less about the game and more about escaping the pressure to get into a top university or than a prestigious government job. This pressure so ingrained in the minds of teens worldwide led them to believe that this idolized version of success was their dream even t ...

We think that everybody communicates in the same way. We've built everything around the fact that everybody communicates in the same way. But along we've forgotten one simple thing that there is no shared language for everyone.For some people the biggest struggle in life isn't about intelligence or creativity or effort. The biggest struggle in life is that they cannot represent their thoughts, their feelings and their emotions because they do not have a language to communicate. You know, I didn't come at th ...
