To be Human | Sonali Sharma | TEDxIITRopar

Human Experience - Being human involves embracing imperfections, contradictions, and the messiness of life, rather than striving for an unattainable ideal of perfection [1] - It is about balancing between work and life, understanding that small acts of kindness can make a significant difference [1] - Humans often crave simplicity but complicate things, desire happiness yet find reasons for sadness, and demand honesty while hiding behind filters [1] - The greatest act of courage is standing up for oneself, speaking up, protecting self-respect, and seeking help when needed [1] - Humans balance between needs and desires, finding meaning in small moments amidst the chaos of daily life [1][7] - Humans are wired for connection and empathy, not isolation or an overdose of information [6] Emotional Intelligence - Humans often hide pain and sorrow, presenting a facade of well-being even when struggling [1] - Learning from mistakes, including pride, ego, and anger, is crucial for developing kindness, gratitude, and humbleness [2] - It is important to acknowledge and embrace emotions rather than running away from them, as emotional intelligence is a key aspect of being human [2] Relationships and Connection - Humanity can be found in small acts of kindness and support from others, such as a steadying hand on a train or a stranger's blessing [1] - Forgiving others, even those who haven't apologized, and loving despite the risk are essential aspects of human connection [1] - Machines cannot replace human connection, empathy, or the comfort provided by friends and therapists during difficult times [4][5] Personal Growth - To be human is to fall and rise, to fail and try, to lose and still keep looking forward [6] - It involves daring, stumbling, breaking, and healing, and rebuilding again and again [1] - Overcoming the fear of regret is crucial, as is having the courage to choose momentary embarrassment over a lifetime of "what ifs" [10]

[music] [music] Almost everyone dreams of being successful in school. Some want to be doctors. Some want to be engineers, some want to be entrepreneurs and maybe even presidents.But here is the real question. How many dream of being helping others become successful. That is the difference between chasing titles and living leadership.There was a boy in a school where I worked as a teacher. He wasn't the smartest in class. He wasn't the loudest in discussions.In fact, many teachers thought of him as just an o ...

Alamikum everyone. I'm here today to talk a little bit about the criticism that sociologists face. Regularly, we're asked the question why we don't stay in one area of research specialization. And the answer to that really is what I'm going to share with you here today. I started my research and PhD um on sociology of health but I couldn't stay there. I started navigating into sociology of education and sociology of religion because these substructures of society are linked together and without understandin ...
The horrors of comfortable fiction | Matthew A.J. Anderson | TEDxAlbury

[Applause] I want to tell you a story, but more importantly, you want to hear a story. I know this because I've been writing and researching stories for a long time, and I've come to the conclusion that stories are a fundamental part of who we are. Stories offer two things that the human brain desires.The first of these is empathy. We are social creatures. We want to know and understand each other. And stories give us this opportunity with characters that we can get to know and understand.But more than this ...

TEDx Talks· 2025-12-01 17:07
I'm so happy to be here. But let me start with a serious question. Are you going to be helpful or hurtful.I'd like to share a story about someone that I met recently who made the choice to be helpful. Let's go back to 1968. A boy, 10 years old, black, wearing his Cub Scout uniform, walked in a parade with his troop when suddenly a small group from the side started throwing rocks and stones at him.He was astonished and didn't understand. Later he reflected, "Where does that kind of hate come from? People are ...

RT Tesla Owners Silicon Valley (@teslaownersSV).@elonmusk"I think there's good things in all religions that are good principles, that you can sort of read any religious text and say, Okay, this is a good principle. This is going to lead to a better society. In Christianity, have empathy for fellow human beings, is a good one, I think, for good society, just consider the feelings of others and treat other people as you would like to be treated” ...
