am i the only one who watched the whole video and didnt notice the fake audience?

You know somethings fishy when the ratings bar get's removed lol..

Anyone else feel cheated on this video?

Lets break down the video. First we get an introduction. Then a self glorifying pat on the back. Follow that with a text block sized name drop. Quip about how hard his job is sorting details (remember he's still a millionaire). The final minute of the video actually gets to the point and viola.... you just wasted 7 minutes and 17 seconds so that TED can pretend to make the world more educated.

This mans really spent 10 years of his life to state the obvious.

"Success usually comes to those who are too busy to be looking for it."

So sad to read through the comments and find a whole bunch of hopelessness being spread about. It's just sad that people think that success is only the result of luck, and that it's all about who's dealt the right cards. Don't believe those lies... You CAN be successful. Yes, it may take more effort than average, or maybe less, depending on where you're at, but the choice to be successful in any area of life is your choice. Don't let the mopers, blamers, and critics of success and successful people drag you down. Most are only envious of where successful people are at and aren't willing to do what it takes in their own lives to be successful, so they'll just try to drag everyone else down to where they're at, because it makes them comfortable. Don't let them! Keep dreaming! Keep striving! You can make this world a better place!
