In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Even if you fail seeking for your dreams, you are not a failier. Real fail is to never try

    Not being rich and traveling, - seems pretty simple, save little by little and don't give up on the saving because it seems so hard to achieve due to feeling like there's no progress. But, any progress is progress no matter how small. If you have a real dream and passion to do something you wont let something stop you, keep moving forward.

    Accomplish everything you want to do despite the effort it deserves. The only one who limits what your capable of is you.

    Don´t listen. Happiness is not in any type of dream, it is in the present moment if have right sight. You only need dissipate the fog... live without any desire of self transformation or attempt to change the world. Happiness was your true state of being.

    Excuse me, but I disagree with all that is stated here. DON´T FOLLOW ANY DREAM!!! As eastern spiritual teachers emphasize... keep in mind any kind of goal to achieve for an illusory imagined future, is only in your mind, and does nothing but make you lose the vividness of the present moment (which is the only real moment). By pursuing goals, you only perpetuates ego. Any volitional attempt to change or transform yourself, only increases the dissatisfaction with your current real inner natural state of being (being as you originally are), because the slightest intention of becoming inevitably results in uncertainty and unrest of the urge. All external searching is unfullfiling, the only thing that really fills you as a whole is to be internally aligned with any external circumstance at any moment. If results that you are a loser... BE A LOSER, a happy one anyway!!!!

    you know having a dream doesn't necessarily mean wanting external validation.
