- Michelle Neujahr had no idea how much she would need the motivational tapes she grew up listening to. Her story of overcoming numerous difficulties and the negative voices in her head that threatened to keep her down will inspire you. Her message teaches us to not give up as she shares her story of perseverance.
Michelle Neujahr is the Director of the Entrepreneurial Center at Southern Maine Community College, where she oversees the business incubator program, leads entrepreneurial initiatives and runs the Launch or Grow Small Business Success Conference. Michelle also brings her passion for entrepreneurship into the classroom, where she serves as a business professor.
Michelle is the founder and president of The Business Renovation Company, a corporate training and business consulting company with clients including 3M, Target and Wells Fargo. She has also owned a seven-figure residential renovation firm and has served on the boards of Women Standing Together, the National Speakers Association and Build a Biz.
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
Out of all the motivational talks I’ve been listening to at this low point in my life, this is the one that keeps me going. Perseverance is the key !!!! Thanks so much 👍😀
There was never talk about college in my home growing up.I also was a young single mother of 3 children. It was 2002 when I started taking classes, not knowing what I was doing or where I was going. I had taken some gap years and always returned to it. I will graduate with a Bachelors in Health Sciences and minor in Holistic Health this May. It is never too late to be who you want in this life- even if you take the scenic route!
I watched the full video. I'm going to remember it for a long while
❤❤❤ THANK YOU MCHELL ..YOUR MESSAGE CAME ON SPOT TODAY "I WILL PERSEVERE & I WILL CONQUER MY DREAMS !!!!!
a very powerful message with real life examples
It’s exactly right
Oh My God I was one of the students in that Marketing Class that night. I was in my 50s going back to college again and this time for me. After hearing Michelle's story I thought to myself "this woman is real". I learned a lot that semester and went on to be the fist one to apply for the incubator program. Thanks to Michelle believing in me and telling me I AM AWESOME I AM UNSTOPPABLE AND I HAVE PERMISSION TO SUCCEED. I now have as my name plate COLLEEN IS AWESOME people call me awesome and when I hear it I smile because I did succeed because I did what I was told I could not and that is to graduate from college. Hearing Michelle speak again brought tears of joy because SHE IS AWESOME and she gave me PERMISSION TO SUCCEED. THANK YOU GIRLFRIEND YOU ARE AWESOME LOVE YOU
You are and always have been amazing! So glad to know you
You are awesome Colleen!
Your story made me tear up, I so needed this, Thanks Michelle
Offcurse too much upset story
I didn't see a problem with sound...but actually the energy in her voice capted me a lot. I was drawing, working, and when I realised I was watching her. It inspired me a lot. Lately got big challenges that scary me and sometimes things don't go super well, sometimes the curve of learning requires more trying than before and everything takes more time to happen, or a good result to show up. This message inspired me a lot! Thank you very much!
Thanks for the feedback! I hope you are walking through those big challenges :)
Very inspiring Michelle. Thanks for sharing

This message from India for you ! You have power in you, I watch it evry ten fifteen minutes and get back to achieve my goals in life...You are true tothe core and strong to the core. I found this video just when I needed it the most. I could have won tomorrow's battle unless I had won todays...and I won it listening it to you in the period when I would be exhausted, feeling it hard to give it one more push..respects!
Thanks for the feedback!!
Thanks you so much!
Thank you for this.
I learn that never quit despite your feeling or circumstances then you will be succeed.
I think your story is a powerful one, but you also need to admit that some of those choices of your life were “your” choices. Children, predominately young teens need to get moving and realize the gift of young adulthood is blessing and step for us all. If you want to tell your story for a learning lesson, talk about your mistakes. Perseverance is not a virtue, it is what you do to live this life. Teach that.. best of life’s journey to you!!

i receive messages of 40 thiefs but no cavern found...in phone treasures ...be bop phone never contains paradise richess or something else ...how i can help poor children in awful condition for better efforts ...it's so hard...
I expected her singing Death Metal...
1.75X speed
I understand she isn't trying to be monotone but the volume of her voice from small to loud is really annoying, I have to constantly turn up and down the volume
Thanks for the feedback - that is something I will work on :)
you will get over it

Without trying she really grew up a Breakfast Club kid those are thee kids who are cool without really tryna be...
If your dad played you a tape of a dude named Zig Ziggly you're cool automatically.
Pregnant wombmen are creators who carry mini bvmbs in their stomachs for nine months they become CEOs of educating + nurturing little future humans that is not a role 222 be disrespected either. It's really ofd î'm 25 thee wombmen in my family had 2-6 kids + they are thee heads with advanced skills they don't have 222 prove 222 anyone because they mind their business...their families.
I thought this was about the Martian Rover.. I'm disappointed
One of the most boring Ted Talks ever. Not so great at story telling. 14 mins of my life which will never be returned to me.
Sorry you felt that way :(
