😅 I am here to remind myself of the thing or two. Prioritisation and the courage are the important things in life. That is why it is important for me to always be brave and to know what is important to me. Or in other words, I am here to gain courage to work on the things that are important to me, while instead of getting support from others they are trying to persuade me to go the other way. Hey, this made me think. Maybe I should just find a better way of describing my why to them. They just "don't get it" now. How about you?

@climberbob1
@climberbob1 4 роки тому
I don't understand why it's "gifted", or the speech is brilliant. His voice is UNOFFENSIVE, but it doesn't make me swoon. IF you can keep your audience from falling asleep, you've accomplished something! Vin Skully had a soothing voice.I'm also not so sold on his hypothesis either. But everyone here seems to be swooning over him. The examples he chose fit his hypothesis, but my Senior year Economics Professor started out the quarter with "you've all studied the laws of supply and demand, plotted charts and determined the optimum price points, studied macro and micro economics, but the truth is that none of that data exists out in the real world. What you've been taught is how firms behave - as IF that is what they were doing. The equivalent would be if you went to college to be a pool player, you'd be taking courses in physics and geometry, but that's not what the professionals did. If you wanted to get a degree in auto racing, you'd be taking courses in physics, solving simultaneous equations, and so on, but they don't. They drive. And the truth is that it's the risk takers - the ones with a little different approach, that are the ones that are successful. And the majority of new firms fail. Risk takers even moreso. SO the number of very successful businesses - is a very small number. Many more fail than succeed. But if you happen to be that fortunate one that hit the right combination, you might be the next Apple or Tesla. Lastly, I was directed to this talk by a friend at work after I was telling him about how important it was for me as a kid to know "why" with regards to rules we were given, and that I always explained that to my kids, and never had to repeat a single rule that I'd explained so they understood why. But I'm not buying it here. In fact, management in my aerospace doesn't want to know why. They just want the answer they asked for. Or they just want my question, they don't care why I'm asking it. I'd like to disagree, but there's an expression: "He who has the gold, makes the rules." The examples he gives of "why" I'm not guying. The Wright Brothers didn't build a plane because of "Why". They had an idea, an invention, a CREATION. They simply WANTED to do it. Unless the "why" was so they could fly. lol.

"Find your why and you'll find your way!" - John C Maxwell
@shepherdfield
@shepherdfield 3 роки тому
There is only ONE way, and it ain't yours - John should know this, claiming to be a Christian. I started reading these PMA authors when I was 8 and I'm now 8 times that old. ALL of their material "comes from" the Bible, however, they do "wrest (twist) the scriptures" somewhat. They all copy each other and come up with a "new" mix of the same things. It is good for folks who must be EXTERNALLY motivated, a large market. The "faith healers" do the same, saying you did not get your healing because you did not have enough faith. "It is God that giveth thee faith". Therefore, they do blaspheme much. Listen to Godly men who prove their faith by their works (James) and read good books by dead preachers (Spurgeon etc.) and some who are still alive and have been studying and preaching/teaching for at least 40 years.

Simon Sinek Deserves the Nobel Peace Price of Tedx Talks
@nambiarnikhil11
@nambiarnikhil11 8 років тому
To Simon Sinek, Thank you. The art of drawing inspiration is confused with the temptation to drown in facts. People act on purposeful concepts. In my limited experience, I have observed two worlds. One that focuses on the results and the other focuses on the process. The result happens to be a consequence of the purposeful process. Both worlds are necessary, but the one that inspires action is the one with purpose. In your example, Langley showed the shallow temperament of the one that chases the carrot, in contrast with the Wright brothers' passion towards their purpose; bringing them victory inspite of the odds being stacked against them. This contrast between the pursuit of excellence and the pursuit of results explains the reasoning behind inspiring achievements. The pursuit of excellence does not expect a result and it does not sway towards probable odds, it just doesn't accept mediocrity. That's why, the pursuit of excellence has no limits and so do the achievements of the ones that pursue it. Start with why and end with the endless pursuit of excellence. Sincerely, Nikhil Nambiar

Making sure you believe in the things you do will make you go farther in life. I definitely think everyone should hear this. It is great for explaining how to market and draw people into what you are selling or believe in. You have to be that 2% "the innovators" to be first.

Ambition, vision, and drive are so much more appealing than self-glorification, pride, and unrealistic promises. This is something I can get on board with, thank you Simon!

People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it. I have a dream, not I have a plan. Couldn't have said it any better. Out of the three, the Why is the most human-like quality that actually has the ability to move people and have them resonate with it. Saving this talk.

Love this talk and loved his book "Start with Why" I just read it in the summer and I feel like I've finally found my sense of purpose with my life. I've found my why! I've began a personal development journey on UKposts and I hope to inspire people to take charge of their lives! I want to make the most out of my life and I want to inspire others to do so as well :)

People can change their lives for the better, if they find God. God empowers us with faith, confidence, family stability & love for neighbor. Simon is advocating business sense here, not necessarily your personal solutions to a better life. 'why' is important to decision-making, yes. But so is 'what' and 'how' with respect to problem-solving, team-work applications as well as split-second adrenaline choices. I hope you do not aspire to Oprah's lackey list of self-appointed Gurus who THINK they have all the answers by becoming 'one with the universe' & the stupid 'secret.'

You share some good points there, however I don't completely agree. I believe that a person can change their lives for the better if they choose to do so and act upon it; whether or not they have a strong sense of faith in God or a higher being. And if your faith in God empowers you and helps you shape a better life for yourself, then keep on keeping on. I just don't think that's the answer for everyone. I also understand that Simon discusses this concept using business as an example. However, since I am not a business woman I chose to take this concept and apply it into an area in my life that I am currently working on which is my personal development. By switching how I identified myself from 'what I do' to 'why I do it' I allow myself to do the things that are in alignment with my beliefs and values resulting with a stronger feeling of purpose with my life. Lastly, I feel as though it is ignorant to claim knowing "all the answers", so no I do not aspire towards that. I aspire to be a student of life, love and personal development. I believe my life is a gift and I intend to make the most of it.

Yes, a person does not HAVE to subscribe to faith or God, in order to attain a specific goal in his/her life. Let me give you some examples. Hitler did not require strong morals or God or conviction in faith to become the leader of the Nazi party. Anderson Consulting did not require spiritual enlightenment from God to achieve record breaking profits - they did this by self-empowering themselves and it worked. Terrel Owens did not require the words of Jesus Christ in order to shatter wide receiver records in the NFL. He relied on his training regimen, work ethic and his mother's encouragement. I would not want to be any of these people. However, for every example of a person that achieves personal happiness and growth WITHOUT God, there are 10 people who DON'T achieve prosperity, family stability, financial freedom and REAL love. Just refer to studies done by Blue Zones, Timothy Dolan & ABC News. What makes a person truly happy and successful? That's subjective. I have friends who make 300 K a year, but are divorced and not happy. Then again I have friends who make minimum wage, but feel blessed in their lives because they have a loving spouse, give their time to charity and have strong parents in their lives. Tony Robbins, a famous Speaker once said..."Have you read the New Testament? Read it. It's a GOOD book." I won't hope for you, Adrienne...I won't wish for you, Adrienne...I will pray for you. Because prayer is communication with a tangible, living being. A Father who can physically and spiritually help. This is my opinion, and I do respect yours.

Well said. I too have began my personal development and can tell you that i have started seeing changes in my life. I am having great relationships, a fulfillment with my career and so on. It all boils down to our mindset and why we choose to see things they way they are. change your mindset and you change your world.

I like that quote you said, "What you do proves what you believe." Jesus said, "A belief without acts is dead." If you believe it's good to have a clean room but you never clean your room, then you're proving that you actually believe that everything else you're doing is more important than cleaning your room.

Actually, it was the apostle James (Jesus' half brother) who wrote, "Faith without works is dead". Your statement is equivalent, however.

This video has been a gateway for me to his leadership videos which have served me well over the years. I also highly recommend his commentaries on the infinite game, and his guidance on finding your own why. Wonderful advice that's helped me push through or change my trajectory on difficult paths. I'm so happy he's made this all available for free. Thanks Simon!

That's called Brand Esteem in Communication Science. "Individuals dont purchase what you are, doing but purchase why you do." Brand esteem is identical to notoriety. It makes individuals faithful to them no matter what happens.
