After a meteoric rise to the top of inspirational talk-givers, I had my first and second TED talks this week.
Here’s the first:
I would like to see more of them — and all other leaders — realizing that happiness does not imply to constantly feel happy. How many of you would agree? I once had a patient where my performance was a disaster. (Laughter.) Thank you very much. But I just thought of the French intellectuals telling us what the world looks like. As an alternative, I’ll give you a sixth sense device, allowing the brain to weigh emotion and experimental evidence. You don’t have to like it, but a mirror will not get something bad fixed et cetera, et cetera. It’s therefore much better to create a choice — but of course we also need surprises. How many of you believe that I could use only data to show the difference only once you look at the details. Otherwise it’s just chunky spaghetti sauce. You could go on with this metaanalysis forever. But I would like to show you that in the middle of it all, you could see the situation running the same way that a downward spiral would. It makes you yearn for coffee sponsored for by the administration of the United States.
The second, well, didn’t go over so well. I think I’m already past my prime.
I’m here to tell you it’s not a matter of oxygen and other things. By now you’re even wondering what this has to do with girls with different names. I’m here to talk about what they have in common, namely a problem that occurs when you get too high. Then you’re going to have long-term effects on my project that I like very much. I don’t have to own a four-passenger aircraft can easily fly upside down. Earlier, completing my MBA in the United States required you to use your feet and all your troubles begin. I don’t understand why anyone would do that. So we needed more time to make sure that we get more attention on the web. And we needed a design which is going to make sure that we succeed. Furthermore, we needed help in building what I can’t have. This would neither require an evolution scientist nor a computer functioning in ways I don’t understand.
Please understand that I only followed the advice of this guy.
