He's an independent entrepreneur who has founded 8 businesses, traveled to 25 countries, and ran a marathon on every continent to connect with the the world's greatest risk takers and adventurers and learn their secrets.
His research in psychology and human behavior has lead to insights for harnessing the power of the brain to successfully navigate through high-risk and high-stress situations. After 10 years in the field, Tyler has found that by combining your passion and intuition with proven research and strategy, you can win at almost anything you want to.
In this talk, he explains how adventure makes your brain smarter, your character stronger, and your ideas more attractive. Tyler's resources, risk tests, and adventure strategies are available for free to his community at riskology.co
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)
Tyler, never had the chance to hear it before with the attention it deserved. Happily I just did and I'm so proud to be called your "brother". Not only the way you said it, but knowing you live your life exactly like that is always an inspiration. Great job man!
Cl 9 I'll pop
I was expecting something inspiring, but I wasn't expecting the comedy. Funny, motivating, and educational is a tough combo to pull off ... but you did it, Tyler.
i guess im asking randomly but does any of you know of a method to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow forgot my account password. I would love any help you can offer me!
@Emanuel Creed Instablaster :)
@Timothy Dante i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Timothy Dante it worked and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Emanuel Creed you are welcome xD
This tedtalk is way underrated ! Definitely deserve a millions view 👏🏼
One of the best Ted Talks I've ever seen since Simon Sinek's! I've always had a similar philosophy but just lately began to question myself. I feel much more confident and motivated now! Great job Tyler Tervooren
That was brilliant!
"One small thing that will get me closer to me goal"
Got it! Great talk :)
I am pleasantly inspired by what Tyler had said about adventure makes you smarter, stronger and attractive. I have made up my mind that I am going for a bag pack to asia for 6 months next year after I finish my 2nd term. Thank you Tyler for such great speech!
George
Did you end up doing it??
The thing about adventure is that it's uncharted.
Pure and simple talk. Keep on travelling. Enjoy life.
Love this! Great talk! I love the part you talk about Big Dream Influence!
Thank you for this awesome Ted talk!
:) very good, needed standing ovation.
A real pleasure to listen to!
Hitting bottom gives you freedom. I'm glad you had the most embarrassing moment of your life, because now you are unstoppable.
Luckily, nothing quite as embarrassing has come along since.
One of the most amazing talks i've heard!
Wow, I'm flattered, Nerissa. Glad you enjoyed it.
Tyler Tervooren It's true man -- it was informative, humorous and inspirational. I saw it this afternoon during the break and I can't help but be infected by your contagious passion for adventure! Kudos!
Bị nghiện bài này từ thời Bảo Thy, ko ngờ lại có ngày được nghe idol mới trong lòng mình Đức Phúc cover lại. Cảm ơn em ĐP vì đã cover lại lắng đọng cảm xúc như vậy
Tyler, that was really great! Very cool.
Great talk! Thank you
Great lecture. By the way, last week Shackelton's vessel was discovered. Images of her at the bottom of the sea were broadcast by television news around the world, as well as a brief summary of this extraordinary adventure.
Been a fan of watching TedTalk videos lately. I am hooked!Learned a lot and makes me much better person. Daily routine check list= watching TedTalks. VERY INSPIRATIONAL!
Dude, I've used that same trick in a half dozen countries to avoid paying bribes. haha
It really works!
I just love the title
great talk. Hope my kids see it.
Right, we forget sometimes that you don’t have to pick, and that you can do both.
Great lecture!
Potato bugs and pizza are two of my favorite things
beautiful talk
Thanks a lot🌹🙏
great talk!
Indeed. Step out of your comfort zone.
brilliant
Was really great talk! Speaker talks just like Nicholas Cage. Weird.but great!
Inspiring
Where gift plane is?
Great talk, however the problem with adventure is that you may die! Does one need adventure in order to become stronger, smarter, and more attractive? What about self examination?
Ali Rafatjah Doing stuff > thinking about stuff
Ali Rafatjah Life is too short! I really would prefer a short life full of adventure rather than a boring life in a suburb!
Obviously you should be able to make some judgements over what is adventurous and what is dangerous.
Anyone else watching this two years later?
JSH , or 3
lol nice
hey, great talk!
i want to add hebrew subtitles to this video. is it possible doing this on this video? or do i have to download it, add subtitles, and upload the subtitled video as a new youtube video?
please contact me if your interested.
excellent
I'd like to get the source for the stat you mentioned about people dying unhappy and with regret because they are not living authentically. I searched but could not find it; could you point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Hi Tracy. There is not just one source for that info. I took the death rate in the U.S. as reported by the CDC, the happiness index as reported by Harris Interactive, and the #1 regret from the book, "Top 5 Regrets of The Dying."
That's where the figures I stated in the talk come from.
He gathered the numbers from multiple sources
you had cell service on top of mount kilimanjaro???
+KaeSun prob satelite phone ;)
👌🏻👌🏻GREAT
Go Tyler Tervooren I remember you getting that email on Kilimanjaro and the look on your face :)
❤️
I loved it! I will be sending me to my globetrotter friend.
What kinds of ADVENTURES? please give examples!
JE ENN literally everything outside the comfort zone
Yea like go to Africa if you want
Join me as I blast off to Mars in an attempt to blow it up with nothing but a few cans of beans and some fireworks! :D
What did I take as a gold nugget here again? Was it about how you explain, by way of the "wall example" that we become smarter by adventure? Or was it that we become stronger by way of a problem being an "eh, could be worse" one. Ah yes, I remember, now. It is the philosophy that you do not care so much what people think at the expense of doing what's important to you. You just don't do that. Thank you.
Ah, yes, and what I learned about the building and bringing about of a team that you mentioned by the explorer of the South Pole. A tip that I've finally found as being directly useful, relevant, and applicable to me and my set up of life where it is a career goal for me to make it to a spot on the College team and to start in a game at the JUCO College level. Selling myself long on interest, dreaming, uniqueness, this kind of goal setting that sets you apart as you mentioned, and so on and so forth.
I also like how you talked about how what once is new and scary that you once had to go through, but were maybe forced, then became old and routine after some expansion and taking of courage. Then, the way you described how every time you step forward out of your comfort zone, I could just imagine the circle moving with it as you go and the outer edges always being another place to step and turn into your comfort zone. Thank you for all this as well.
I really enjoyed this talk but gotta set it straight that Ernest Shackleton was Irish not British, born on 15 February 1874 in Kilkea near Athy, County Kildare, IRELAND. His dad was Anglo irish and his Mam was Irish.
The whole of the British Isles were united at this time, Eire didn't break away until 1921
...smarter, stronger, and quadriplegic.
if you are using adventure for this sort of gain, you’re not actually going on an adventure
why didnt the Russian just check his passport see he was a faker and shake him down or worse? Not smart in my books too easy to grab docs from travellers to spring that ruse
Why can't he just not be corrupt and not ask for bribes to get money from someone already on his way to a destination. That's honestly the question you were asking?
And yet 'adventure' - assuming that there have been some in his life - has mysteriously not made Mr Tervooren himself any smarter or more attractive. Strange.
So the Russian guard saw the American passport and still believed he doesn't speak English?
Who cares about a bus? I'm gonna walk the 50 minutes to school because it's fun tho my backpack is gonna kill me😂😂
If I have to listen to another when of these when I can hear their lips smacking the entire time, I SWEAR TO GOD I WILL END IT ALL. That is the most awful noise
It's a good presentation but running a marathon on every continent and having a penchant for travelling makes you an incredible adventurer? What? I don't buy that. It just means you have the funds to travel to 7 continents. Many, many people would be delighted to do that. I've run 8 marathons in numerous countries, all under 3 hours (that is the hard part). It doesn't make me anything special. I'm not aware that Tyler has any qualifications in either risk or psychology either? I don't see how he can legitimately position himself as either a world-beating adventurer or an expert in risk.
Yes of course, travelling can be good for you, adventure is awesome. Don't go to the middle east war zones tho, you'll get decapitated .
Was this talk for 16 yr. olds ??
LastOfTheMaguas I disagree! Everything teaches you survival skills!
Don’t tell people where to not go it’s hard to resist
Nah.
