TED is an American media organization dedicated to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short but powerful speeches. TED has been around since 1984, when it launched as a conference on technology, entertainment and design. Today, it covers almost all topics from science to business to global issues, in more than 100 languages. We have selected for you 10 speeches of different types that are worth listening to.
- “I got 99 problems, but palsy isn’t one.”
Maysoon Zayid is an American actress and comedian of Palestinian descent. She is the first actress to stage stand-up comedy in Palestine and Jordan. This is one of the most entertaining and at the same time most inspiring speeches you will ever see. Just 14 minutes to realize that no kind of physical state can stop you from having a good emotional state and a lot of humor.
- “Harnessing the power of placebos.”
This may be one of the most shocking information you will receive. Alia Crum, a professor at Stanford University, an athlete, psychologist and widely regarded as the mistress of Britney Spears (this is not shocking information), tells you how the way we think changes our health. Social experiments will leave you speechless. The video only lasts 15 minutes.
- “What does the Quran really says about a Muslim woman’s hijab.”
Samina Ali is the winner of several awards for her books. As an activist and feminist, her work is driven by the belief that women should have full individual and political freedom. Everyone (believers or not) should see this TedTalk, to understand how people have distorted religion over the years according to their interests.
- “20 first hours – How to learn anything.”
Josh Kaufman, author of several books shows his theory on how to acquire a certain skill. If you are also a procrastinator (leave things to the last minute) give Josh a chance and maybe he can change this (not so) small problem.
- “Thoughts on humanity, fame and love.”
Shah Rukh Khan mbase nuk ju thotë gjë si emër, por e keni parë me patjetër në një prej shumë filmave të Bollywood ku aktori luan. Nëse je fans i filmave hindi, dëgjo mendimet e tij mbi famën, humanizmin dhe dashurinë, shoqëruar me shumë humor.
- “There’s no luck, only good marketing.”
Kjo video është e vitit 2015, por ka ende njerëz që nuk e dinë rëndësinë e marketingut dhe faktin që aplikohet në çdo fushë e në çdo moment të jetës. Franz Schrepf është një student dhe fjalimi i tij është po aq i mirë sa i profesorëve, autorëve dhe personaliteteve të njohura.
- “More than funny – Michale Jr.”
Ekziston një teori se nëse titulli është “Funny”, “Dying out of laughter” etj., përmbajtja nuk do të jetë dhe aq funny, por në këtë rast do të qeshni me lot. Humorist dhe frymëzues, ja vlen ta dëgjoni.
- “ Secret of success – 8 words, 3 minutes.”
Of course, it's not as simple as 3 minutes, but during the video you will realize that nothing is impossible.
- "I don't have it all, but I'm happy"
Now a little Albanian. Yes, TedTalk also speaks Albanian! From this speech, you will understand why Ilva Tare is one of the best journalists we have. The speech is pleasant, with sharp humor, self-ironic. 17 minutes pass very quickly.
- "Follow the dream to leave a mark!"
Albanian again. This is Fitim Uka and he really won this TedTalk. The psychologist from Pristina, who has recently been involved in politics, is clear and inspiring.
These are some suggestions, as we will continue with other lists in later articles.
