When you say deprogram, what do you think you believed that held you back the most, and what happened to make you actually act on your dreams? I agree with the other comment you sound like you’ve lived a very interesting experience that would be worth telling In a boom if you were interested in doing so.

Odd thing when I was teaching the power of positive self-talk in job clubs, the more _educated_ the participants were, the more sceptical they were. The supposedly less intelligent participants just did what I suggested and in a short while found either jobs, or at the very least a better self-image and outlook on life. I found it very rewarding.

Education is the mental gymnastics Olympics of the mind. Trains endlessly nonstop nonsense to dwell upon instead of doing a thing.

I’ve seen a number of different TED talks now. I’ve found a few so incredibly inspirational. I’ve seen talks where the whole crowd is moved and you can sense it from their applause. Wondrous. But then what happens? I just forget about them and move on, maybe incorporating one peripheral thing from them into my life. In this talk, from outward appearances, this crowd did not seem to be all that engaged. Is that the reality, or were they perhaps too busy already envisioning the possibilities to more actively participate? For me, this might truly be the best TED talk I’ve seen yet. Just by listening to his method to reprogram my brain, I already know it’s going to work. You know when you just know? This is exactly the practical tool I need, that many of you probably need too. This one talk will enable me to be the person I’ve always wanted to be, and will put me in a much better position to act.

This is a truly excellent review and I therefore agree with what you have written. The presenter is not a native speaker of English. His pronunciation is poor. His grammer poor. He seldom speaks in complete English sentence or thought pattern. He is not a polished presenter. All true. But...... He is able to connect with the audience through commonalities. He engages the audience into their own thoughts from the start. When he talks of his experience his audience relives it as their own. In that method his message becomes the message shared within the minds of the audience. My take away is he has deeply studied skills to allow him to overcome negative self talk. If it is a skill he can learn, everyone can learn the skills also.

I love myself totally.) Write them, Record them in phone and listen to them two times a day while doing brushing or eating (fix it with some habit you do everyday, other wise you will forget it.) Keep doing it for 2 months, you will change eventually.

Who was your music teacher? I will fight them. Unfortunately, this is a common trend among music teachers, and it's one that, as a music teacher myself, makes me quite upset. There are very few people that don't have a musical bone in their body. Singing is fun, and it pains me to hear that other teachers are punishing those who enjoy it by telling them to not do it. Oh, that infuriating phrase. I am hoping as a music teacher, I can program in kids' minds - "I CAN sing! I believe in my own abilities!" Great video!

I love this speech well done!!

Very informative speech and practical solution! It makes sense what Staffan says. I think we all can benefit from the method he suggests and give it a shot. A few weeks of positive statements on specific times of our routine activities and then... it becomes our new program. let's do it!

i like this guy , great presentation

Thank you for this talk.

And how powerful is that? To gain compliments to yourself based on something you believe to already be doing rather than just "wanna" be doing, magnificent. I can actually see how this can apply. My inner dialogue would start to adjust and I would gain this slow build of confidence just by reciting the creed of the NCO and look for such things as mentoring opportunities more, for instance.

damn good talk. i noticed beforehand what he says about writing in presence and also talking in presence it does something to you. It is like your much more comfortable. This is also why i believe rap and poetry are very powerful to do cause it incorporates a lot of thinking about yourself in the presence

Iska Hindi translation milega kya?

Knowledge, control, responsibility. With the proper application of force and intelligence, one can do anything.

I can attest that this works. I've used it for years and it really changes how I perceive life and what I consider myself capable of. However I use it in the form of questions. Like "Why am I doing such a good job at work?" "Why am I enjoying such a happy relationship with x?" And I found that this is more powerful than affirmations (what he talked about) because it prompts your mind to find responses to these questions, and sometimes they are simple and uplifting, and sometimes they are practical. But I agree with him, if I wouldn't have had it recorded on my phone and part of my morning routine, I wouldn't have been consistent. Why are you so pro-active in uplifting your life? (see what I did there?)

The real problem is that most children are not Called Into Being. They are accidents rather than Wanted children. Unwanted children means unprepared parents, making for a stressful situation for everybody involved. It is not parenting classes we need. Instead, we need education as to what it means to take loving responsibility for another Soul - for at least 18 years. And a confident freedom to say , "I am not ready yet for this responsibility." Human parenting is a most important "job" not to be taken lightly💜

Words reduce reality to something the human mind can grasp which isn’t very much !

He is right! Individuals ought to program, reinforce and affirm themselves according to their needs, gifts, inclinations and personalities. It works well. But it all amounts to a pointless exercise if individuals fail to plug the competing, more powerful and constant conditioning society floods them with Every Day. It defeats the effort. You get it from the movies, the commercials, the pulpit, peer groups, pop culture, peddlers of -isms and a thousand other sources. Find yourself and ignore all other voices. It works like a charm (from experience).

This is awesome!

This talk made me change self negativity from my thoughts 💬💭 🙏🙏🙏

This is a very good talk....

Spot on. Awesome.

The primary reason the human race rarely makes progress, socially, is because all first born are raised by parents who are new at the job and the learning curve is too long, so by the time the parents ever learn the good ways of parenting, if they ever do learn, the damage is already done. This pattern is repeated millennium after millennium!

This is how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy works. It identifies your self-doubt, fears, and what affects your self esteem. Then gets back to your childhood and finds out who created those feelings and thoughts in you, and shows you why that thinking is flawed and you are really NOT those things you think about yourself. It changes people's lives.

the XO of a ship is responsible for gathering all the information, making the minor decisions and anything that's bigger passing it to the captain, while keeping the captain fully informed of everything.

The Captain is the big hammer. If you draw his ire you will pay the price.
