请舍弃年龄歧视这个词你们是否还记得,上次有人说你有孩子气是什么时候？对于像我一样的孩子们,被称为孩子气是时常发生的事.每次,我们无理要求,不负责任时,就会被称为孩子气,我很困惑.
但是,从帝国主义和殖义、世界大战、georgew.bush等事件来看,你们这些成年人,是谁不负责任呢？现在,我们来看看孩子们都在做什么.annefrank通过他对大屠杀有力的记录感动了数百万人,rubybridges在美国帮助消除了隔离.
最近charliesimpson通过他的小单车凑集了120,000英镑帮助海地.以此为证,年龄绝对不是左右孩子气的原因.
孩子气也经常会出现在中,当我们评论那些不负责任的行为和无理的想法时,我们应该舍弃年龄歧视这个词.谁能说某些无理思考就一定不是这个世界需要的？也许你曾有伟大的计划,但却自己终止了它.
孩子们充满灵感、和有希望的想法：消除饥饿,所有东西都免费等乌托邦想法.你们中还有多少人依然做这种梦,相信这种可能？有时过去的知识和乌托邦理想的失败能成为一种负担,因为你知道如果所有东西都免费,那么食物库存将会被清空,变得稀少或者导致混乱.
但是,我们这些孩子却依然去梦想这些完美的东西,这是好事.因为想要实现梦想,就必须先去勾画这幅蓝图.
请尊重孩子的想法现在,孩子已经从大人那里学习了很多,我们相互分享.我认为,大人们应该开始从孩子中学习.
现在听我演讲的人大多数是教育圈的人,老师和学生,我喜欢这种类比.这个不能仅仅是老师在课堂上教学生做这做那,学生应该同样教老师,大家在学习中应该是互惠的.
现在,们总是对孩子采取一贯的约束,从学校手册中的那些不要做这个不要做那个,到在学校网络使用的各种限制,都证实了这一点.尽管大人们不会像独裁主义政体那样心狠手辣,但是孩子们没有或很少有能力去制定规则.
正确的态度应该是两者互相尊重,们应该学习和考虑孩子们的希望和想法.然而,比限制更糟糕的是,大人们经常低估孩子们的能力.
我们热爱挑战,但当期望很低时,我们会不思进取.我父母曾要求我和我姐姐
从TED演讲里学到20种最实用的演讲技巧
当越来越多的听众沉迷于研究演讲的技巧时，其实有一些简单易行的方法可能直接影响你演讲的最终效果。以下是一些在准备演讲、练习演讲以及提升演讲技巧方面的小窍门。必须一提的是，每一个小技巧都出自一个精彩TED演讲内容。你不仅能从这些伟大的演讲者身上学到这些实用技巧，更可以拓宽你的思路。 本文原本于刊登于美国著名《INC.》主流商业报刊网站上，英锐君特意进行中文翻译以方便更多的人学习到这些极为有用演讲的技巧。 1别忘了给听众一些能带回家的话 Dan Ariely:别忘了时常给听众讲一些易于操作的方法。因为无论你的演讲信息 多么鼓舞人心，其实听众更关心的是能从中学到任何可实践的方法。有启发的演讲当然很棒，但远比不上一个实用的点子：请永远不用害怕去说“今晚，还在苦 苦挣扎的他们，明天这些观念和方法就会拯救他们”。 2回答问题时，不要迟疑 Malcolm Gladwell:如果在你正在演讲的过程中，突然有人打断你来问问题。那其实很棒，说明有人在听啊！请抓住这个时机。如果这个问题是你之后幻灯片里将提到的，可以先行跳过（如果你已经熟练应对这样的处境）。其实，最好的演讲就像在舒服的对话一般，即便看上去像是单向的。所以，不要放过任何可制造互动的机会，也绝不要试图脱离你的听众。 3问一个你也无法做到的问题 Nigel Marsh:当你问听众问题时，他们总显得很被动。相反，如果当你问一个你已经预设听众“做不到”的问题时，你同样也可自我回答“没关系，其实我也做不到”。接着就解释你为什么做不到以及哪些是你试图做到的。其实，大部分的演讲者总是看上去光鲜的，事实上他们同样在工作生活上也常常感到无能为力，只是他们愿不愿意承认罢了。适时地承认自己的“无能”不仅可以给人亲切感，听众也更愿意听你“有能”的地方。

杨澜ted演讲稿中文 欢迎来到聘才网，以下是聘才小编为大家搜索整理的，欢迎大家阅读。 杨澜ted演讲稿中文 The night before I was heading for Scotland, I was invited to host the final of "China's Got Talent" show in Shanghai with the 80,000 live audience in the stadium. Guewho was the performing guest? Susan Boyle. And I told her, "I'm going to Scotland the next day." She sang beautifully, and she even managed to say a few words in Chinese. So it's not like "hello" or "thank you," that ordinary stuff. It means "green onion for free." Why did she say that? Because it was a line from our Chinese parallel Susan Boyle -- a 50-some year-old woman, a vegetable vendor in Shanghai, who loves singing Western opera, but she didn't understand any English or French or Italian, so she managed to fill in the lyrics with vegetable names in Chinese. (Laughter) And the last sentence of Nessun Dorma that she was singing in the stadium was "green onion for free." So Susan Boyle was saying that, 80,000 live audience sang together. That was hilarious.
TED演讲内容(中英)
张彤禾 HI，So I'd like to talk little bit about the people 嗨，今天我想来探讨一下 Who make the things we use every day; 这些为我们制造日常用品的人们： Our shoes，our handbags,our computers and cell phones, 例如我们的鞋子，手提包，电脑，还有手机。 Now, this is a conversatuon that often calls up a lot of guilt. 这个话题时常让我们觉得很内疚。 Imagine the teenage farm girl who makes less than 想象一下，一个年轻的农村女孩给你缝制跑步鞋 a dollar an hour stitching your running shoes, 可每个小时还赚不到一美金， Or the young Chinese man who jumps off a rooftop 又或者是那个加班为你组装ipad的中国小伙子 after working overtime assembling your ipad 在加班之后从楼上跳了下来。 We，the beneficiaries of globalization,seem to exploit 我们，是全球化的受益者， These victims with every purchase we make, 可每笔交易却似乎都是在剥削那些受害者， and the injustice 而这种不公平 Feels embedded in the products themselves. 似乎也深深烙印在这些产品之中。 After all, what’s wrong with the world in which a worker 总而言之，这个世界到底怎么了？ On an iphone assembly line can’t even afford to buy one? 一个在组装iphone 生产线上的员工却买不起一台iphone？It's taken for granted that chinese factories are oppressive, 人们理所当然地认为，中国的工厂就是应该被压榨的，And that it’s our desire for cheap goods 因为我们渴求便宜的产品 That makes them so。 造成了这样的局面。 So,this simple narrative equating Weatern demand 很显然，西方社会的需求 And Chinese suffering is appealing, 和中国人对他们遭遇的申诉被连接在一起， especially at a time when many of us already feel guilty 尤其是当我们中的很多人已经因为我们对世界影响 About our impact on the world, 而感到了内疚， But it's also inaccurate and disrespectful.
Ted中英对照演讲稿.
Ted中英对照演讲稿 大人能从小孩身上学到什么 Now, I want to start with a question: When was the last time you were called childish? For kids like me, being called childish can be a frequent occurrence. Every time we make irrational demands, exhibit irresponsible behavior, or display any other signs of being normal American citizens, we are called childish, which really bothers me. After all, take a look at these events: Imperialism and colonization, world wars, George W. Bush. Ask yourself: Who's responsible? Adults. 首先我要问大家一个问题：上一回别人说你幼稚是什么时候？像我这样的小孩，可能经常会被 人说成是幼稚。每一次我们提出不合理的要求，做出不负责任的行为，或者展现出有别于普通美 国公民的惯常行为之时，我们就被说成是幼稚。这让我很不服气。首先，让我们来回顾下这些事件：帝国主义和殖民主义，世界大战，小布什。请你们扪心自问下：这些该归咎于谁？是大人。 Now, what have kids done? Well, Anne Frank touched millions with her powerful account of the Holocaust, Ruby Bridges helped end segregation in the United States, and, most recently, Charlie Simpson helped to raise 120,000 pounds for Haiti on his little bike. So, as you can see evidenced by such examples, age has absolutely nothing to do with it. The traits the word childish addresses are seen so often in adults that we should abolish this age-discriminatory word when it comes to criticizing behavior associated with irresponsibility and irrational thinking. 而小孩呢，做了些什么？安妮·弗兰克(Anne Frank)对大屠杀强有力的叙述打动了数百万人的心。鲁比·布里奇斯为美国种族隔离的终结作出了贡献。另外，最近还有一个例子，查理·辛普 森（Charlie Simpson）骑自行车为海地募得 12万英镑。所以，这些例子证明了年龄与行为完 全没有关系。 "幼稚"这个词所对应的特点是常常可以从大人身上看到，由此我们在批评不负责 和非理性的相关行为时，应停止使用这个年龄歧视的词。 (Applause) Thank you. Then again, who's to say that certain types of irrational thinking aren't exactly what the world needs? Maybe you've had grand plans before, but stopped yourself, thinking: That's impossible or that costs too much or that won't
TED演讲：想成功,请多睡一会儿 英文演讲稿
TED演讲：想成功，请多睡一会儿 My big idea is a very, very small idea that can unlock billions of big ideas that are at the moment dormant inside us. And my little idea that will do that is sleep. (Laughter) (Applause) This is a room of type-A women. This is a room of sleep-deprived women. And I learned the hard way, the value of sleep. Two-and-a-half years ago, I fainted from exhaustion. I hit my head on my desk. I broke my cheekbone, I got five stitches on my right eye. And I began the journey of rediscovering the value of sleep. And in the course of that, I studied, I met with medical doctors, scientists, and I'm here to tell you that the way to a more productive, more inspired, more joyful life is getting enough sleep. (Applause) And we women are going to lead the way in this new revolution, this new feminist issue. We are literally going to sleep our way to the top, literally. (Laughter)

Richard St.John在Ted 英语演讲：成功的八个秘诀(中英双语) 2014-09-08 激情，刻苦，精通，专注，强迫，服务，点子，坚持，这就是成功的秘诀 This is really a two-hour presentation I give to high school students, cut down to three minutes. And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED, seven years ago. And in the seat next to me was a
high school student, a teenager, and she came from a really poor family. 这真的是一个我给高中学生做的2个小时的演讲现在缩到了3分钟所有的一切都是从7年前的一天开始，我坐在飞往TED会议的飞机上。在我邻座坐的是一个高中生，一个十几岁的年轻人。她生于一个贫穷的家庭而且她的愿望是成就一番事业所以她问了我一个简单的小问题。 And she wanted to make something of her life, and she asked me a simple little question. She said, "What leads to success?" And I felt
really badly, because I couldn't give her a good answer. So I get off the plane, and I come to TED. And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people! So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids? So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later, and I'm gonna tell you what really leads to success and makes TED-sters tick. 她说：“怎样做才能成功呢？”我当时觉得糟透了因为我不能给她一个满意的答案后来我下了飞机，来到TED 忽然间我想到，天啊，我置身于一屋子成功人士之中！
ted演讲中英对照-拖延症
TED演讲——拖延症 拖延症者的思维方式到底是什么样的？为什么有些人非要到deadline来的时候才知道打起精神做事情？是否存在执行力强的人或是说人人都有一定程度的拖延症？Tim Urban从一个被deadline 赶着走的拖延症者的角度带你走进拖延症的神奇思维世界。 中英对照翻译 So in college, I was a government major, which means I had to write a lot of papers. Now, when a normal student writes a paper, they might spread the work out a little like this. So, you know --you get started maybe a little slowly, but you get enough done in the first week that, with some heavier days later on, everything gets done, things stay civil.And I would want to do that like that. That would be the plan. I would have it all ready to go, but then, actually, the paper would come along, and then I would kind of do this. 在大学，我读的是政府专业。也就是说，我需要写很多的论文。一般的学生写论文时，他们可能会这样安排：(看图)你可能开头会慢一点，但第一周有这些已经足够。后期再一点点的增加，最后任务完成，非常的有条理。我也想这么做，所以一开始也是这么计划的。我做了完美的安排(看图)，但后来，实际上论文任务一直出现，我就只能这样了(看图)。 And that would happen every single paper. But then came my 90-page senior thesis, a paper you're supposed to spend a year on. And I knew for a paper like that, my normal work flow was not an option. It was way too big a project. So I planned things out, and I decided I kind of had to go something like this. This is how the year would go. So I'd start off light, and I'd bump it up in the middle months, and then at the end, I would kick it up into high gear just like a little staircase. How hard could it be to walk up the stairs? No big deal, right? 我的每一篇论文都是这种情况，直到我长达90页的毕业论文任务，这篇论文理应花一年的时间来做，我也知道这样的工作，我先前的工作方式是行不通的，这个项目太大，所以我制定了计划。决定按照这样的方式工作，这样来安排我这一年。(看图)开头我会轻松一点，中期任务逐渐增加，到最后，我再全力冲刺一下。整体是这种阶梯式安排，一层一层走楼梯有多难?所以没什么大不了的，是吧? But then, the funniest thing happened. Those first few months? They came and went, and I couldn't quite do stuff. So we had an awesome new revised plan. And then --But then those middle months actually went by, and I didn't really write words, and so we were here.And then two months turned into one month, which turned into two weeks. 但后来，好笑的事情出现了，头几个月时光匆匆而逝，我还没有来得及动工，所以我们明智的调整了计划。然后，中间的几个月也过去了，我还是一个字也没有动，眨眼就到了这里，然后两个月变成了一个月，再变成了2周。 And one day I woke up with three days until the deadline, still not having written a word, and so I did the only thing I could: I wrote 90 pages over 72 hours, pulling not one but two all-nighters -- humans are not supposed to pull two all-nighters -- sprinted across campus, dove in slow motion, and got it in just at the deadline. 一天我醒来，发现离交稿日期只剩3天了，但我还一个字都没写。我别无选择，只能在接下来的72小时里，连续通宵两个晚上赶论文——一般人不应连续通宵两个晚上。90页赶出来后，我飞速冲过校园，像电影中的特写慢镜头一样，恰好在截止日期前的最后一刻交上。 I thought that was the end of everything. But a week later I get a call, and it's the school. And they say, "Is this Tim Urban?" And I say, "Yeah." And they say, "We need to talk about your thesis." And I say, "OK." And they say, "It's the best one we've ever seen." That did not happen.It was a very, very bad thesis. I just wanted to enjoy that one moment when all of you thought, "This guy is amazing!" No, no, it was very, very bad. 我以为事情就这么完了，但一周后，我接到一个电话，是学校打来的。他们说：“你是Tim Urban 吗?”我说：“是。”他们说：“我们要说一说你的毕业论文。”我说：“好啊。”他们说：“这是我见过最棒
TED成功励志的演讲稿
TED成功励志的演讲稿 TED成功励志的演讲稿1：如何与压力做朋友? 我要跟大家坦白一件事。但首先，我要各位也对我坦白，如果相对来说，你去年压力不大的，请举手，有吗?那觉得承受的压力算普通的呢?有没有倍觉压力的?看来我们都一样。 我要坦承的是，我是一名健康心理学家，我的职责就是让人们更健康快乐。不过我担心自己这10年来传授的与压力有关的内容，恐怕弊多于利。这些年我不断跟人说，压力会让人生病，患有从一般感冒到心血管疾病的风险都随之升高。基本上我把压力当作敌人，但我对压力的看法已经变了，而我今天就是要让你们改观。 先来谈让我对压力另有看法的研究。这研究追踪在美国的3万名成人历时8年，研究首先问这些人「去年你感受到了多大压力?」，同时问他们「你相信压力有碍健康吗?」，之后研究人员以公开的死亡统计找出参与者中去逝的人。 好，先说坏消息：前一年压力颇大的人死亡的风险增加了43%，但这只适用于那些相信压力有碍健康的人、承受极大压力的人，若不将此视为有害死亡的风险就不会升高。事实上，与压力相对较小的研究参与者相比，这样的人死亡风险反而最低。 研究人员花了8年追踪死亡案例18.2万，美国人过早离世原因并不是压力本身，而是认为压力有害的这个想法。估计超过2万人符合这情形。若估计正确，「相信压力有害」就成为美国去年的第15大死因，致死率更胜皮肤癌、爱滋病和谋杀。 你们应能体会为何这研究让我担心害怕了，我一直努力告诉他人压力有碍健康。 因此这研究使我想知道：改变对压力的看法，是否能促进健康?显然科学对此抱以肯定，改变看待压力的方式，生理上的压力反应亦随之改变。
1、第一项研究 如果你此刻的确在(社会压力测试的)研究中，你或许已经有点儿承受不住了。你的心跳开始加快，你的呼吸开始便急促，可能还会 开始冒汗。通常，我们认为这些生理上的变化是紧张的表现，说明 我们无法很好的应对压力。 但是，如果我们将这些表现看做是身体进入备战状态的表现会怎么样?在哈佛大学的一项研究中，参与者正是这么被告知的。实验参 与者进入社会压力测试之前被告知，他们面对压力时的反应是有益的。心跳加速是为下一步行为做准备。如果你的呼吸变急促，没关系，它会让你的大脑获得更多的氧气。那些被如此告知的参与者反 道比较不那么崩溃、比较不紧张，更加自信，但更让人欣喜的发现是，他们的生理反应也随情绪有了变化。 2、第二项研究 我想通过另一个研究来结束今天的演讲。听好咯，因为这项研究可以救命。这项研究在美国找了1000个年龄在34岁到93岁间的人，他们通过一个问题开始了该研究：“去年的你，感受到了多大的压力?”他们还问了另一个问题：“你花了多少时间帮助朋友、邻居和 社区里的其他人?”接着他们用接下来五年的公共记录来看参与者中 有谁去世了。 那好，先说坏消息：生活中每个重大的压力事件，例如财政困难或者家庭危机，会增加30%的死亡风险。但是，我估计你们也在期 待这个“但是”，并不是对每个人都是那样。那些花时间关心其他 人的人完全没有体现出压力相关的死亡风险。零风险。关心让我们 更有韧性。 于是我们再次看到压力对于健康的有害影响并不是不可避免的。如何对待和应对压力可以转变你面对压力的体验。当你选择将压力 反应视为有益的，你会在生理上变得有勇气。当你选择压力下与他 人沟通，你的生命会更有韧性。

ted演讲稿范文4篇 i was one of the only kids in college who had a reason to go to the p.o. box at the end of the day, and that was mainly because my mother has never believed in email, in facebook, in texting or cell phones in general. and so while other kids were bbm-ing their parents, i was literally waiting by the mailbox to get a letter from home to see how the weekend had gone, which was a little frustrating when grandma was in the hospital, but i was just looking for some sort of scribble, some unkempt cursive from my mother. and so when i moved to new york city after college and got completely sucker-punched in the face by depression, i did the only thing i could think of at the time. i wrote those same kinds of letters that my mother had written me for strangers, and tucked them all throughout the city, dozens and dozens of them. i left them everywhere, in cafes and in libraries, at the u.n., everywhere. i blogged about those letters and the days when they were necessary, and i posed a kind of crazy promise to the internet: that if you asked me for a hand-written letter, i would write you one, no questions asked. overnight, my inbox 1 / 42
ted演讲
CARL AZUZ, CNN ANCHOR: Hello and welcome to the September 19th edition of - come on, Friday`s are awesome. You wanted to hear it, I wanted to say it. It`s good to have you watching CNN STUDENT NEWS. First up, Scotland, home to more than 5 million people, about the size of South Carolina. Scots have contributed world-changing inventions related to bicycle tires, penicillin, television. Yesterday, they decided on a potentially nation altering question: should Scotland be an independent country? The polls were closed when we produced this show, the vote was over. But it was expected to be very close, and we don`t have results for you yet. For the latest, teachers please visit https://www.360docs.net/doc/9614297903.html,. We do have an excellent fact-filled look at how Scotland came to be the division of the United Kingdom that it has been for the past 307 years. BEGIN VIDEOTAPE) UNIDENTIFIED MALE: What we know as modern Scotland was formed in the 13 century when England and Scotland signed the treaty of York. Mapping out Scotland southern border. 60 years later, the countries were at war, with the legendary Scottish rebel William Wallace helping to lead the charge. Wallace`s fight for freedom was a subject of Hollywood blockbuster, Brave Heart. Years of war paid off for Scotland. IN 1328, England recognized Scottish independence in the treaty of North Hampton. In 1603, Queen Elizabeth, the last of the Tudors, died at the age of 69. And that cleared the way for King James VI of Scotland, son of Mary, Queen of Scotts, to become England`s king, too. It was known as the union of the crowns. Just over 100 years later, parliaments of England and Scotland passed the Acts of Union. It joined the two separate states into one. The Kingdom of Great Britain, one parliament, one monarch. (END VIDEOTAPE)
TED演讲：越有钱越无情(中英对照版)解析
越有钱越无情 It's amazing what a rigged game of Monopoly can reveal. In this entertaining but sobering talk, social psychologist Paul Piff shares his research into how people behave when they feel wealthy. (Hint: badly.) But while the problem of inequality is a complex and daunting challenge, there's good news too. (Filmed at TEDx Marin.) 一个被操纵的大富翁游戏能告诉我们的东西竟然有那么多！在这个有趣且发人深省的演讲中，社会心理学家保罗-皮夫分享了他对于“人感到富有时如何表现”的研究结果（暗示：很坏）。在面对异常复杂、异常严峻的不平等问题的同时，我们也听到了好的消息。。（摄于TEDx加州马林县） Paul Piff studies how social hierarchy, inequality and emotion shape relations between individuals and groups. Why you should listen: Paul Piff is an Assistant Professor of Psychology and Social Behavior at the University of California, Irvine. In particular, he studies how wealth (having it or not having it) can affect interpersonal relationships. His surprising studies include running rigged games of Monopoly, tracking how those who drive expensive cars behave versus those driving less expensive vehicles and even determining that rich people are literally more likely to take candy from children than the less well-off. The results often don't paint a pretty picture about the motivating forces of wealth. He writes, "specifically, I have been finding that increased wealth and status in society lead to increased self-focus and, in turn, decreased compassion, altruism, and ethical behavior." What others say: “When was the last time, as Piff puts it, that you prioritized your own interests above the interests of other people? Was it yesterday, when you barked at the waitress for not delivering your cappuccino with sufficient promptness? Perhaps it was last week, when, late to
TED 乔约翰 成功的八个秘诀的演讲词
TED 乔约翰成功的八个秘诀的演讲词 This is really a two-hour presentation I give to high school students, cut down to three minutes. And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED, seven years ago. And in the seat next to me was a high school student, a teenager, and she came from a really poor family. And she wanted to make something of her life, and she asked me a simple little question. She said, "What leads to success?" And I felt really badly, because I couldn't give her a good answer. So I get off the plane, and I come to TED. And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people! So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids? So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later, and I'm gonna tell you what really leads to success and makes TED-sters tick. And the first thing is passion. Freeman Thomas says, "I'm driven by my passion." TED-sters do it for love; they don't do it for money. Carol Coletta says, "I would pay someone to do what I do." And the interesting thing is: if you do it for love, the money comes anyway. Work! Rupert Murdoch said to me, "It's all hard work. Nothing comes easily. But I have a lot of fun." Did he say fun? Rupert? Yes! TED-sters do have fun working. And they work hard. I figured, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics. Good! Alex Garden says, "To be successful put your nose down in something and get damn good at it." There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice. And it's focus. Norman Jewison said to me, "I think it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing." And push! David Gallo says, "Push yourself. Physically, mentally, you've gotta push, push, push." You gotta push through shyness and self-doubt. Goldie Hawn says, "I always had self-doubts. I wasn't good enough; I wasn't smart enough. I didn't think I'd make it." Now it's not always easy to push yourself, and that's why they invented mothers. (Laughter) Frank Gehry -- Frank Gehry said to me, "My mother pushed me." Serve! Sherwin Nuland says, "It was a privilege to serve as a doctor." Now a lot of kids tell me they want to be millionaires. And the first thing I say to them is: "OK, well you can't serve yourself; you gotta serve others something of value. Because that's the way people really get rich." Ideas! TED-ster Bill Gates says, "I had an idea: founding the first micro-computer software company." I'd say it was a pretty good idea. And there's no magic to creativity in coming up with ideas -- it's just doing some very simple things. And I give lots of evidence. Persist! Joe Kraus says, "Persistence is the number one reason for our success." You gotta persist through failure. You gotta persist through crap! Which of course means "Criticism, Rejection, Assholes and Pressure." (Laughter) So, the big -- the answer to this question is simple: Pay 4,000 bucks and come to TED. Or failing that, do the eight things -- and trust me, these are the big eight things that lead to success. Thank you TED-sters for all your interviews!
