  • My presentation will cover the basis of human transformation and the basic principles of taking command of your life. What it really comes down to is, “Self-Mastery!” These fundamental strategies and ideas are the core and precipitating factors in creating long lasting transformation regardless of what area you are looking to improve on.
    My name is Anthony Cheam and I’m a Life Coach, Personal Trainer and Motivational Speaker. I started out my career 14 years ago as a Personal Trainer who was inspired to help those achieve optimal fitness. I know how amazingly beneficial it is to be physically fit and I wanted to share that with other people through the wisdom and experience I have gained. I really am passionate about this area of life as it gives me so much joy, confidence and energy. To this day, I continue to guide and train many individuals and groups to maximizing gains in their exercise routines.
    This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    Everyday wake up to become a more kind, more productive, more of a human. This is the first time in my life, I feel peace.
    Why? Self care. Self love. Self realization. Always keep growing. And let NO PERSON have power over your mental, physical and mental state ever.

    My girlfriend of two years broke up with me. Just weeks before we were talking about marriage and starting a family in the next few years. Things went poorly at the very end. It made me realize that I need to change. I let viruses enter my life and our relationship. I'm working hard now. Physically and mentally. I quit smoking, I'm working out, I'm not being the same cynical man that I was a few weeks ago. It's a process but I'm getting there. This was very inspiring and insightful to know that change is always an option and it is necessary. Thank you.

    My girlfriend and I just decided to put our relationship to an end. I just want to transform myself into the best version of myself. I want the same for her. Part of me wants to give up and lay in bed forever, and another part of me is viewing this as an opportunity to do all the things I didn’t have time for. I guess I’m looking for answers with no real question... but I will persist and move forward because I know that’s what she’d want for me and that’s what I want for her as well.

    Thanks for making us understand the need for struggle in life and to have faith in that struggle to come out as winner and becoming version 2.0 of ourselves. That point could not be described with any better analogy. Even though we all know that hard work and struggle essential for our improvement still we choose comfort and rest and become outdated or fall back in life. And that brings anxiety depression. This kind of lectures really needed sometimes to remind us why we should choose to accept challenge every time we face it and not to choose fear and comfort. Thank you so much.

    I was born on march 5th 2007 and I am right now 14 yrs old . through out my life there is nothing great I have ever achieved that is if bad things are not counted . I am always a short tempered boy who gets angry all the time at others especially to my parents who support me all the time , All my life I have always troubled my grandmom been a bad grandson to her and never really cared how he felt . I just want to say this to you guys growing up be kind to those who support you make wise decisions and work hard . Please avoid yourselves from becoming like a person like me . My family deserves someone much more than me . Amen . I have always wanted material throughout my life and didnt realise what is really important . Parents its ok what your young ones want to achieve be it sports or studies , Please be supportive to your children Whatever be it their dream and irrespective of the circumstance support them to grow in that dream and to become the best versions of themselves . I just want to say sorry to my familly for the pain I have caused to them . Amen !

    I always try my best to change and I always fall back. I learn so much and sometimes it's very fatiguing because you learn how much it will take to get to where you want to be but are then back to square one. Basically though if I can go to sleep early and wake up early. Exercise just a bit, pushups or something, and eat right. For sure I know I'll have the energy to enjoy work and be content with the daily grind. Dopamine detoxxs are really powerful as well. I'll do that from time to time and see great results. But staying consistent and not falling back to old habits it's the hard part. Especially when the benefits kick in and you feel like you can afford to stay up a bit. Or I'll work some more tomorrow, let me just take a break and a mini vacation. I don't know, however small a Dream is I'm sure it's worth getting back up for it an infinite ♾️ amount of times either here or in the next life.
