Rethinking Successby TED Radio Hour |
NPR’s TED Radio Hour chooses a theme, then pulls excerpts from several full TED talks, and interviews the speakers. In this episode, they explore the notion of success. The first speaker bluntly says “if you don’t like your job, change it!” He promotes “owning your story,” one that will empower you to be the person you want to be. The next talks about how “grit,” not IQ may be what you need. You’ll also hear about the power of smiling, why you shouldn’t follow your passion and the uncomfortable truth that you might have to choose only one area in your life to achieve success. As we plan out our own career advancement, deciding what success means to you could be the key to find the right path. TED speakers include Professor Angela Duckworth, motivational speaker Tony Robbins, HealthTap CEO Ron Gutman, Dirty Jobs host Mike Rowe, and writer Alain de Botton. |
