- Invisible people are all around us. They work in our homes, they serve us coffee and meals, they teach our children. We perhaps do not see them either because we do not know how it feels to be invisible or we have never paid any thought to their existence, their feelings, their being.
I'm actually that invisible person watching this while ironing.... Thanks alot gal
We all have been made feel invisible by others at some point in life. We therefore should employ all necessary measures in life to ensure we do not impose such a feeling on the people we engage with. Great talk and an eye opener.
I am among those people who keep on missing the exit but this story is an awesome perspective of life
She has a great point... In fact, a lady shared a similar experience here, her names Achi. But she did Mr Clinton when he was in the White House and not President Obama. Achi asked Clinton how he got to now the details of her life - her husband, her kids names, her work, etc. And the President said that one of his most important duties is to learn beforehand the details of each and every person he's going to meet, so that the meeting will count. He will make that person special in those few seconds he is in their presence. I think thats the point here. Treat your subordinates well, and the worlds subordinates, well. They are people too. The greatest leaders and influences, teat people well, and give attention even to the least in the society, thats what makes them standout from the crowd.
Thank you Nuru. A good reminder for us to be full present when dealing with other people. Influence right there!
few gifted people. in kenya..help others...expecially jobless people....by such motivating...talk you have helped....alot....God bless you....
One of the best Engage talks - very relaxed, dynamic and meaningful. Thanks Nuru
Had put this on the Watch Later list but it came up just in time. 👏👏👏
Potent!
Beautiful story Nuru, I love the topic 'invisible' see people look at things different am glad I got something out of your story, that I should rise up from invisibility, and light a path for those behind me or even in front of me, because some how, somewhere there is always somebody looking up to me whether up there or down here I should endeavor to shine my little light of home and make everyone feel visible
In Australia it's different.. no job is embarrassing.. actually i work in banking and we love seeing maccas on the resume.. good customer service experience and work ethic
Thank you Nuru,,,, i believe one day i will be visible too
I loved this!!!!!
I don't know why I just landed here, I was feeling kinda down but this is the message I needed.
Beautiful soul.
Always learning a lot from Nuru
Feeling encouraged😍
This is profound!!how do we make people feel?My apologies to people I ever made feel invisible,..Ranks and status aside, we are all humans
Thank you for liking, maybe you can also share how I can get to be an audience
beautiful story
awesome
The message is clear. Well done Nuru
This is truth. a challenge to change for the better
As much as I appreciate Mugambi’s talk, I disagree on her experience as a waiter in America. I think she was a little too sensitive, and brought with her the Kenyan “I’m in America you should recognize me” mentality with her. Many, many students in the US opt for minimum paying jobs without any shame whatsoever! College students take up menial jobs all the time, and they take their jobs very seriously, and do their jobs for a “good reason” while building their resume in the process. WaKenya nao..........?🤔 When you want so bad the recognition from the outside world then, there is truly quite a bit of work one needs to do on themselves. I remember starting her talk with how well off her family was. In America, that doesn’t matter like it is back in Kenya. A bank manager on his day off lines up at the ATM like everyone else!!
You missed her point, All she meant was it's always good to be present when dealing with humanity and this might be just say hi, thank you, and even smile. regardless of your status. it is not about recognition my friend.
You all being too defensive. Just be nice that's the point. Smiling is free🤷♂️
Word!
Be a little more grateful!
Wow
I think you take things too seriously....if you look for approval from people or attention you will be very disappointed and annoyed aaaaallllll the time...... It comes with time......
Thought the same like she is cringe somehow
@@janemaina6986 It's either you all missing her point or you are guilty of making people feel invisible. She has given all rounded examples of when people make others feel in visible, how to deal with situations when you feel invisible by knowing your worth and just being nice to people no matter the scenario. This arrogance of Kenyans shoving people aside because you don't need others opinion and you are hardcores is what she is saying we should slow down on. Yes you don't care what others think of you, but can't you at least be nice to others and not interact with them as if they are less of a human being. By the way, it is scientifically possible to be hardcore and nice concurrently. The last time I checked smiling was free people. Do Kenyans want to start charging each other for a smile?🤷♂️
Nice 👍
You don’t need anybody to validate your existence on this earth my dear. You should connect with people who matter.
Wow👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Amazing talk....still relevant to date
A thank you is a thank you! Her talk is a bit self-serving.
Ain't no mean feat
I think a server only needs courtesy and respect, coz if everyone you serve is saying hi to you, asking you your name and trying to be friendly..whoa, that's exhausting! And it's someone you might never see again? Some jobs you are meant to be invisible, just expect respect.
This girl had some personal issues while she was going to college. I've done my under graduate to my doctorate in America and no one gives a rats what you do. College kids work in MacDonalds and enjoy it. How did she expect to be acknowledged at work?? Did she expect fellow students to strike a full blown conversation just to feed her ego??? Get over yourself.
BlackApple take a chill pill...
Lol. Huh ?
get over yourself first!!!!!!!
She mentions about a thank-you that actually means something. Talking to people like you are human, and they are too. I think most people have felt invisible at some point in life, and this affects teenagers a lot. Its an important feeling to acknowledge.
Really? Try having 3 minimum wage jobs. American kids do it all the time, its college!! Its good to be privileged
A rich kid seeking attention. So people in America didn't recognize that you grew up rich, missed an exit and the president shook your hand. So now you are claiming that life is not fair.
Boni k 😂😂😂😂🤣. Exactly my point. She be like, “you better show me some respect, do you have an idea how rich my parents are.”
Me: Not in America darling. You gonna get real hurt darling!
The ugliest story i have heard on this platform so far
This was literally the worst speech I’ve ever heard in my life.
