A great teacher once taught me that the secret to success is the ability to make a way out of no way. This knowledge has never failed me.
What you have got from life by using this unplayable knowledge
@@lazyentrepreneur Why would this knowledge be unplayable?
@@lazyentrepreneur I have used this secret to live all my dreams and achieve everything i have imagined.At this point in life i am merely going back for seconds and third servings of my dreams. If i die today I will have no regrets.
I respect this secret but some people doing parrot things thats why i just questioned you..!!! It's really appreciative if you got what you want because by my own experience it takes persistence, patience, lots of struggle to be successful. which is hard to do for every person.
Success hinges on a sinple question:
What will people will pay you well to do?
1. Passion
2. Work
3. Focus
4. Push
5. Good
6. Serve
7. Ideas
8. Persist
hahaha thx
thanks bro XD
you're the bat man

thanks bro
Short video with 8 smart words to success; Passion, Work, Good, Focus, Push, Service, Ideas and Persist
Wael Guirguis i
S for Serve
Damn! Spoilers.
Passion - do what you love, love what you do.
Work - there's no other alternative.
Good - become better at what you do.
Push - challenge your limits.
Serve - help others and find yourself.
Ideas - change the world.
Persist - you go this
And focus
I learn that "It is important to focus on one thing" through this video. I'll focus on the goals I want and do my best. 현권쌤 파이팅!
the most short, simple,evidence based and real talk about success..ofcourse without background music to inspire you
All this advice from famous people is good (notice I wrote famous and not successful), and yet I have found being successful also comes from an inner sense of well-being regardless of our mistakes, our bank account balance, or our environment. I learned how to play the piano and although I'm just an average player. It really boosted my spirit. As long as we teach our kids to trully enjoy life and do the things they really want, our societies will always find prosperity and happiness.
I would like to add something else to this list and it is probably the most important one in my opinion, it's TAKING ACTION. Having the motivation to do something you need/want to do is not enough, you need to take action, you always see people talking about the things that they're going to do, the goals they're going to achieve, the good grades they'll get, and a whole lot more, but most of these people don't even do it. So stop talking and start doing, all of the hard things in life are just a series of easy steps that is if you take the first step. They say the journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step, and if you don't take that step now, you will most likely never take it. Hence the Nike ad campaign "JUST DO IT"
yeap i am agree with u. Some people can be motivated well but they dont intend to give smth away!
This is actually true, it's all about action & not just saying. Always saying out your goals to people out there actually throw your goals away!
I am doing "it". Self taught and thankful for the internet so that learning could be constant. Now here is TED. Thank you for this.
Couldn't have said it better!straight to a teenager's heart !
Hello, I am a student at Myongji Girls' High School in Changwon. I watched this video on the recommendation of my teacher. What I saw and felt was that we all wanted to live freely. And I decided to live thinking about those eight things. Thanks.
이현권선생님 만수무강하시고 다들힘내 !!!
Short and to the point. I like that.
direct ,simple and the most hard hitting to the point presentation
The most valuable 3 minutes in my life, this can be the orientation for my whole path. Thank you !
Loved this video...spoke to everything I'd been taught and believe. But then I thought: you don't need 8 things...you just need one: know yourself--your passions, your place in the world, what you have to give to others, be authentic. When you can be who you are, to me that's success!
This is perfect! It sums up my philosophy perfectly!
Wonderfully concise Richard, I love it, as a minimalist artist it fascinates me, minimal on time but everything is in there.
So much to take away and apply to my entrepreneurial endeavours.
Johnnie Lawson
yep thats true. im thankful for that

Beautiful presentation :) Thumps up !
Respected Brother Richard, I come here after Mr. Wali Zahid, MENTIONED your video about: Focusing on one thing....thanks....I will share with my students....
It was so nice to say that you have to focus on one thing to be successful and work hard constantly to be really good at it. I will live my life with passion too! 현권쌤 청춘을 즐겨요!
I once thought about how I could success, so this video was interesting. And I found out that in order to success there must be passion.현권쌤 화이팅!
I was able to move forward with my dream by watching this video. I'll keep trying, having fun and running! 현권쌤 화이팅!!
What leads to success? Stop reading TH-cam comments... more than half the people on here are just looking to bring others down, even on a great talk like this.
Nick Feam so true
TH-cam comments is the new mosh pit, for 8th graders. Interesting at a distance.
Now you are bringing me down

such a great video. I saw this at school and wow so relatable, all glory to God
I think the most important thing is passion and continuous practice. I'll do my best! 현권쌤 파이팅
Lately I’ve been felling like a loser, I dream so high, but I dont seem to work for it. And I started to reflect on life and how we are going to go through this only once. Im still 16, I got a long path to go through and if I follow these steps I believe I can go anywhere. I have so many dreams and it’s finally time to run after them. I want to pursue my success from now on til the day I die. In theory it seems kinda easy to just keep following these 8 steps, but I know it’s extremely hard, guess that’s what separates successful and non successful people, dedication and believing in your dream. I’ll be happy to hear some advice from anyone on this comment section. That’s it my journey starts now, April 16th. Thx
Tanks a lot for you short and effective advices.
I was watching this movie The Peaceful Warrior the other day and one of the most important concept said in the movie was "get rid of the trash in your mind" to which the guy replies "what is the trash?"
"the trash is anything that keeps you from focusing on the present".
Thats so important.
We all have so much garbage in our heads. We're always either worrying about the future or wallowing in our past, that we keep forgetting the present.
"All you have is right now".
A must watch movie!!
Wow! hundreds of lifetimes worth of knowledge, compacted into eight minutes! God its good to be alive!
It was a wonderful speech and funny I loved the way he speaks, Seems to be a humble person
Brilliant AND funny. There are some AWESOME speeches at this event. Great for listening to for motivation and entertainment.
Thank you for sharing this inspiring talk. It is extremely important for everyone to relearn and rethink the method to succeed especially in the era of big data and globalization, and ask ourselves: what is the Successology of the 21st century?
very good thoughtful expression and simple explanation to the way to success...thanks...for sharing
Do it for Love, Not money. Passion, Focus and push! These wise saying
moved me. 현권샘 사랑해요!
Excellent video. Would love to see a longer version.
Thank you unfolding the secrets of Antarctica has become one of my many Passions.
That was a good way to deliver success. Thank you
I think I was able to see a good lecture! I'd like to recommend it to a lot of people. 현권쌤 파이팅 😮

I'm going more faster towards success after watching this video.
Thanks
Keep it up
I already knew the elements of success, but I didn't practice them. I will do it from today.
현권쌤 화이팅!
Excellent!...

I agree with the claim about using those 8 steps will help you be successful in your up coming future. The casual reasoning behind each one of those steps is strong because one thing caused the other to happen. For example, when he explains the part about "when you do it for love you get the money anyway." This shows casual reasoning because if you love what you do the money part just falls into place because of all your hard work you put into it. (Logos Casual Reasoning)
The points the man made in this Ted Talk were so strong that I am inspired. I want to love and have passion for my job when I get old. As I grow older I will keep these 8 points in my mind. I will learn to not have self doubt and be passionate about what I do with my life. (Intrinsic Ethos)
As I grew up I learned that completely hating you job and what you do for a living is not the way to go. My father for example when he first started working in construction he loved it. He loved learning how to work new machines, digging holes and getting around in tight spaces. Now that he older and knows how to do every single one of those things to perfection he hates it. He wakes up at 5 in the morning to go to a job he doesn't even enjoy going to. This is why it is so important for me to be successful in life. I want to love what I do wit my life I want to enjoy every little bit of it and this is why I will be using these 8 steps of success for the rest of my life. (Pathos)
That was awesome, thank you!
It was fun and inspiring. I had a big smile on my face. Thank you.
Success formula in 8 words!! Amazing!!
one day, I will be a successful man , and business man , the problem is when you have people around you they make you feel broken person , unsuccessful and failed, thank you
believe in yourself, it's gonna be ok!
No you won't ... why, because you said 'one day I will be'. and maybe work on that ...or not...cause if you did you'd have to give up being king...
thank you so much
thank you so much.

Here's some tips for becoming successful.
1) Take control of your own health.
2) Learn about the power of your mind.
3) Walk in in the tracks of successful people.
I got these tips from the Magic Progress Shortcut (google it if you're interested) definately the most useful course on success that I've heard of.

Probably the coolest TED Video

Success is following your heart and realising that you have to do what you want to do before death comes knocking at your door
The most shocking part of this video, a ted seat cost 4000 dollars!!!
I heard that it is free. And they even give free lunch to people in India 😋😋

interesting points ,if anyone else is searching for train your brain for success try Skyarza Success Secrets Star (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my partner got amazing results with it.
@@radhekrishanrathod9001 theres no free lunch
Passionate, work hard, focus on one, persist even it’s hard, ideas comes from curious, good at experience, push yourself, serve others. #8 TED
Great 3-mins presentation!!
Apparently, this subject could tell in 3 minutes. Most of us read such as this book involved the subject of achievement and success at least 300 pages each one. So... Thank you for this. İt was a great presentation.
This is helpful!Thanks
this is awesome! very insightful!
As easy to understand as hard to implement.
in november 2023. I keep coming back to this video!
Very interesting video to watch.
The video is very short and the content is very short. The idea of eight things leading to success motivated me, but I think it's very important to take real action in every step we take to achieve success. I think success is when opportunity meets readiness.
All of these 8 factors make sense, and I did find them helpful in my own experiences. Among these 8 factors, I think passion is the most important because pursuing success means years of hard-working and it would be much more difficult and painful to do without passion
I highly recommend this video to you!
That's really amazing.....
Thank you
Richard st. john
Sir it's really usefull. A crores of thankyou sir
Thx best Ted talk ever
Ha ha ha! I LOVE this one! I wish it was longer, but it goes to show you how simple success is versus how hard we make it. I guess none of want to sacrifice enough of what we have to get what we want.
This video was a great lesson!
Thank you sir for this awesome message-the best 3 min success tip ever which covers pretty much everything. I would like to add to what you have so brilliantly done already. 1. Add FOUNDATION below all these (inc God, Family, Positive Friends). 2. Add Mentor to PUSH or change to Mentor (not just super mums :P) 3. Add Ethics to Good, hence Good Ethics...or use Integrity. Keep doing great and I love your videos. I'll be sharing them with my members at HairStyle Directory Singapore.
That's absolutely brilliant
Fabulous and amazingly powerful!
Thank you for this share:-)
The best Ted Talks eveR !!!!

thanks sir for useful ideas nd tricks to get success
Three minute ted talk like a boss
I just watched Anthony Robbins. I agree one needs to take advantage of the resources around them. In hard circumstances some people can rely on their intiative but a lot of people need to be shown how to be resourceful. The reason why people are still poor is because they can't see a way out, no one has shown it to them, not because they are lazy. We can be heavily influenced by great teachers and good parenting. So its best to surround yourself with great mentors and good resources.
thank you so much
That's absolutely brilliant!
There are many factors in becoming successful. These include:
Taking control of your health.
Learning about the power of your mind.
Walking in the path of successful people.
One resource I found that merges these is the Magic Progress Shortcut (check it out on google) definately the best course on success that I have ever seen. look at this great resource.
Thanks a million!
This is awesome but I think there might be another term. I remember this vividly because Iniesta did an interview once when Barcelona was playing unbelievable football literally. He said the secret to their game was staying HUMBLE. Staying humble allowed them to recreate their brilliance, game after game after game. I think this applies to absolutely everything. Of course, they were already successful, so perhaps this applies better to those who are on top and want to stay there.
