The entrepreneurial journey is awash with uncertain events and uncharted territories that I feel can be conquered only through continued dedication towards both personal and professional development.
Enter motivational and inspirational TED Talks. These talks derived from TED, a nonprofit dutiful to spreading ideas and motivation, typically in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED had its start in 1984 as a conference where technology, entertainment, and design converged. And today, it covers a variety of topics from science to business to global issues —all in more than 100 languages, according to the official site.
Their mission? To spread ideas and knowledge. To accomplish this, they create content to broaden your perspective, thinking and attitude. And usually, when you see people sharing their ideas that worked, and also those didn't work, you can instantly connect yourself with the life of speakers.
A wide range of subject talks is delivered in TED talks. You learn about different techniques and trending ideas in the health, activism, innovation, social change and personal growth categories, just to name a few. You also get the chance to explore the world, the people around you and so on.
