TEDx is a global platform where scientists and thought leaders present ideas that change the world.
Many of our clients at OnFire Books want to deliver one, however it’s more coveted than any television or media appearance and difficult to achieve as a speaker, because TED doesn’t look for speakers.
Watching TED is a great way to expand your growth. In my household even the kids watch 3 TEDx talks a day.
Here’s a few of my top picks for interesting talks to inspire you as you plan your goals for 2017.
This talk has 19 million plus views, (18.9 + more than mine!) and was delivered by a high school junior wise beyond his years.

Trust me, it’s a great talk to watch to recalibrate your mindset while thinking of your goals for 2017.

We accept reality of the world based on how it’s presented to us personally, via our senses, versus on what we can’t perceive.
What if there was something out there we were unaware of? How our senses play a role in our thinking and life.
As writers, we know that it’s not enough just to create and capture the story.
Every book must engage the senses. This talk offers insight into the human brain and a different way of thinking.
I’m a student of human psychology because excellent writing is 150% psychology.
If you understand the reader (human behavior) you understand how to create emotion and trigger them to take action. This occurs one on one, through the senses.
Reading and writing effectively is about tapping into their fears, smells, sights sounds and writing to the unseen.
Topic: Rethinking how we use the senses
Speaker: David Eagleman, Neuroscientist
When I’m coaching someone to land a TED audition or deliver a speech, it truly is about discovering their one true calling, that topic that they can speak authentically to as an expert.
