Hi again. First of all, I want to ask you something. Please close your eyes for just a second and think about the last time you have ever failed.Maybe it was maybe it was exam you fail, a project that didn't go well, a relationship that fell apart. How did you feel. Defeated, ashamed, maybe a bit angry.Is okay. Understand you. I have already been there.All of us have. You need to keep in mind that failure is totally human. In fact, we can say there is more than that is essential.If you don't believe me, bel ...

My brother had it all. At 27, he was a rising star, smart, talented, and the guy you would bet on. But one fine day, everything changed.A road accident, a spinal cord injury, paralyzed chest pillow. Doctor said he won't be able to walk again. And that's when an illusion shattered that control is permanent.Friends came once, twice and they left. Relatives came once, twice and they left. What followed was absolute silence not in the hospital corridors but in our hearts thinking about the future he had lost.So ...

Okay, we have a balance problem. Seriously, I'm not talking about handstands. Handstands are great.You should try them. They're lots of fun. Do you want to try one now.>> Oh, maybe later. Maybe later. Today I'm going to share with you a simple but profound shift in perspective on the topic of balance.My aim is to give you some fuel and some tools to increase adaptability and resilience as we all face a rapidly changing world. A world that seems to be hurtling out of balance. Let's start with this feather.It ...

When I was only 17, I was smuggled out of Iran. And in that process, I found a GPS. Not the type of GPS you're probably thinking about right now. It was just after 8:00 a.m. on the 10th of February, 2007. I just got into the people with smuggler's car whose name was Ahmed. This old white rusty car with gray seats that had oil stains all over it. It was somewhere at the border of Iran and Pakistan. When I got into the car, I noticed a device on Ahmed's dashboard. He was typing in it. I've never seen such a d ...

Happy morning everyone. Today I'll speak on the topic the art of letting go. Turning sorrow to strength.Everybody has their first pictures of whether they just learn how to walk, talk or eat a crawl. This is my first picture of when I just learned how to walk. It was 6th August early morning.My father or a baba as I call him had just come to India where we were spending our vacations at Nana Nani's house. He broke the news none of us ever wanted to hear. My mother or I is no more.Shock waves ran through my ...

Good morning everyone. My name is Harsh Ramak Krishna and today I want to tell you a story that begins with something as simple as this. This is just a basic sheet of paper.At first sight, nothing remarkable. But with every fold, twist and turn, it begins to change. And suddenly, it isn't paper anymore.It's something entirely new with shape, purpose, and maybe even a little bit of magic. Origami is always one of my silent obsessions. But what I didn't realize until recently is that this simple art form has ...

than this. You're walking through life carrying a heavy backpack. At first, it's not too bad.But over the years, you start tossing in old habits, fears, outdated beliefs, and the voices of people that once told you who you should be. Eventually, that backpack gets so heavy you can't take a step forward without struggling. There was a period in my life where I thought strength meant holding it all together.I held on to every routine, commitment, every expectation, even though they did not serve me anymore. F ...

Icarus, the boy with wings of wax who flew too close to the sun and fell. His story is usually used as a warning against ambition. And his name for centuries has written as a failure.But what most people forget is that he was also warned not to fly too close to the ocean either or the water could weigh his wings down. Too high and you risk burning. too low and you risk drowning.Can you imagine how he must have felt to have wings for the first time to feel the wind beneath you and given a choice between caut ...

Just by the show of hands, do you believe that no one is really disadvantaged. No one is disadvantaged. Some people are disadvantaged.H interesting. But you see, if no one is truly disadvantaged like the topic says, how do we explain poverty. And what about people that were born with impaired hearing.And this is speaking to those that said that no one is really disadvantaged. People with impaired sight, malformed limbs. How can someone thrive when life actually seems unfair.Is that not a disadvantage and in ...
