Summary: Don’t see the random events happening as distractions or inconveniences but rather an opportunity to further understand a situation and learn. Turn and face the strange, and embrace the randomness.
Going though a rough patch in my life I was searching for a video that enlightens and makes me feel "purpose" and guides me back on the path, as I've strayed lately. And this vid caught my eye.
Incredible speech! really loved every thing said! you think you're open minded but you discover that you're not even near the level this man is talking about
1)3:00Turn and face the strange ex- the opposite direction, change routine 2) 6:00 deliberately introduce random ex random word from dictationary 3) welcoming enexpected. 11:00 don't get annoyed get curious
I find myself questioning everything that is presented to me. Even if I boast, "I am the most open minded person I know," I still retract that verbal statement in my mind and consider other possible candidates who may be more so than myself, or if no one comes to mind ill simply think up what i believe would be a person who's more open minded than myself. which may just be a crafty psychological trick i use on myself to acknowledge my opinion that i am the most open minded individual i know. Anyway, to whomever it concerns take everything with a grain of salt and don't be scared to question everything. after all, finding new ways to view/think is considered by many professionals as dominating trait of individuals who have become known as genius'
i think it's impossible to be 100% open-minded, because no matter what, people are always trapped in their brain, but we should try to be open-minded as much as possible
Open-mindedness and closed-mindedness are both worthless without the other. Continuity and change both have benefits, but either in excess deprives you of the benefits of the other.
I appreciate the deep content - open-mindedness is so important right now! I define open-mindedness pretty thoroughly in the last video on my channel as well, from a parenting lens. I hope videos like ours inspire people to really think openly.
scratching a mosquito bite once will not damage one's skin. on the order of tens not so bad. 100's maybe a bit concerning etc the results of small sustained efforts sum to massive quantities over time, thus ones life is generally what you think about frequently (what you focus on) and what you actually do with your time even when it would be so tempting to itch the bite (give into whats comfortable rather than fantastic) life begins outside of your comfortzone. comparing what you do to what you ought to do *remembering the plan is to minimize suffering of yourself and beings around you* , formulate a plan of action that is acceptable to you, and update it when you are presented with new information.small works over time = big results and you can always do small works
True, there is constant information being processed at an infinite rate, so we should take it all in as a way to modernize or ‘upgrade’ our current knowledge rather than denying it with our old information like he said in the video.
But we also have each other to share our different realities to one another that's the only way like an American redneck going to Japan that's a whole new world
this video has an important life lesson. from the first point i get to know how singleminded we can get. so just see more possibilty and strange ones at that. secondly, introduce random things in your life. be it a new subject , a new hobby, or any new habit or a goal. it will enlarge your horizons.thirdly, welcome the unexpected and instead of getting annoyed stay curious.
Usually, people who claim to be open-minded are anything but. It's a state of mind and anyone can/should practice it. Being too open-minded, however, often leads to wrong conclusions.
Most people who think they’re “open minded,” particularly those who unsolicited claim to be, aren’t. Unless your answer to “why are you open minded?” is some derivative of “because I _sincerely, genuinely_ enjoy having my beliefs challenged and see such as an opportunity to learn,” you aren’t open minded. You’re just a people pleaser, kidding yourself. Doing and saying the things you believe people want to see you do and hear you say with the ulterior motive of appearing magnanimous, benevolent, or otherwise concerned to them. Sincerely, someone who is very contentedly closed minded.
Great talk Paul. I learned about this many years ago from 'Angel Tech, A Modern Shamans Guide To Reality Selection' by Antero Alli. Now, here's a challange, Paul. Go to a Karaoke bar and make 'Let It Go' your song. Sing it with a passion that you surprise yourself with ... better still, go with a bunch of teenagers ;)
One's belief system must change often if one is truly open minded otherwise one is just a listener if belief system stays the same quit close minded if you think
Prital Bamnodkar Maybe there are not as many open minded people out there?... Or maybe the ones that are don’t have to search it? I grew up culturally diverse and I have this friend that is becoming a closer friend and he’s so culturally narrow minded and limited and I’m trying to find a way to open his eyes and maybe even explain him about this subject, without offending or hurting his feelings, and open his mind and cultural knowledge... it’s gonna be a challenge... I just have to accept it in the end if he isn’t open to learn...
He hits the mark when he states that our mental prisons keep us from being open minded... our confirmation biases keep us from being open minded. Therefore, challenging our thinking...digging deep to our subconscious programming and conditioning are powerful steps. We remove the distorted lenses and peripheral blinders. Get curious.
Have you ever thought about being open-minded about being closed-minded? If nothing has any real meaning, creating meaning on ignorance is no less useful than anything else.
I practice such simplicity often, but I'm never ceasing to marvel at those around me and wondering if they do as well? Probably totally normal, and totally un-needed. Finally, why are we watching mostly your face? Why are there no bulletin points, much as I love taking notes on subjects, Hmmmm? I'm rather peeved to think you're anticipating comments. But good information nevertheless... Makes me wonder what you're books are like... Only time may tell. 🕌🏯🏟🪵🧱 Don't mind him ^^ $

Cory B how are you doing now? :)
Try to find God. Better ask him why he created you and what's your purpose.

@@faisalrahim7215 fair
Do not get annoyed... get curious!
Okay you are openminded ? Now i say i got good arguments for stating the earth is not a sphere . Will you be able to listen ?
@@ruudgeldermans i think they won't respond, tell me instead, i will listen :)
@@ruudgeldermans you already lost the argument
This was amazing.... Everything happens for a reason.... I loved the point "Welcome the unexpected"... Stay curious!!
One of the best tedx talks. Wise words.
Thanks for the great video & the tips for open mindedness -
Change the routine
Introduce the Random
Welcome the unexpected
This should be the introduction to all Ted videos
Incredible speech! really loved every thing said! you think you're open minded but you discover that you're not even near the level this man is talking about

3) welcoming enexpected. 11:00 don't get annoyed get curious
He has definitely shared different way of living! I am going to try it out. Starting today
A truly mind-opening talk!

True but sometimes you can't open yourself up too much where your soul will leak out

@@deflategate1297true dat
@@kylepekosh3136well thank for ur knowledge is not impossible to be open-minded and than make us open-minded.
Hats off to your speech sir 🎉
My favourite ted talk ...so far!!
Fantastic talk. thoroughly enjoyed it.

Their are a million different perspectives but always 1 concept for what it actually is.
Could you explain that further?
@@Alphacentauri819 yeah

So glad i watched this
Some great ideas here that are super simple to implement!
This is amazing, Open minded is so important right now.
"We are all mental prisoners of our own believes". Open-mindedness seems to be a perfect key for escape
But we also have each other to share our different realities to one another that's the only way like an American redneck going to Japan that's a whole new world
As below, so above and beyond, I imagine
Drawn beyond the lines of reason
This is so true, i realized i was really being not open minded and i wanted to change dat so now im here haha
This one was very good.
nobody laughed at the let it go joke but I mean.... that was pretty good. Thanks Paul!
Watched with a BIG SMILE ❤️
Started with peal, ended with peel. Peal is random, but then peel is not anymore. In any case what a great lecture.

It was worth the time.
i wanted to be a open minded, and i am trying to do.

Great TEDx Paul 👍🏼
OMG, thank u so much, another heaven sent, 🙏 i didn't know any of that before...
Very Enlightening, each of the 3, is a independent discipline that requires serious practice on its own...thank you
Enjoyed this Paul thank you. Was hoping you'd include a lateral thinking puzzle though!
Summarization 13:31
1. Deliberately turn and face the strange
2. Introduce the random
3. Welcome unexpected
Don't get annoyed, get curious
"Introduce the random"
Coincidentally enough, auto-play brought me to this video.
Judging Dogma Ha! Awesome 😎

so sad this video doesn't have subtitles. due to my bad English, I couldn't understand all the mean of the video.
Please activate subtitles. It's interesting but not fascinating. What is behind open mind or creative thinking?
Off to the shop now to buy the Daily Mail and a burger you can put in the microwave.
was it good?
Not as good as Paul's video!
the point of being opened Is divergent thinking and not trying..hes right face the stange and question
1:12
no subtitle? no!!!!! ㅠㅠ
So what about Ospres? Heliocopter / plane
change routine
Open-mindedness =/= lateral thinking. It's a good video on lateral thinking, but I think it misses the mark on what open-mindedness is about.
Hannah Elisabeth can you give a explanation of what you think being open minded is?
I think he did a decent job given the time.
in order to be open minded you must think laterally.
HANNAH: WHAT DO YOU WANNA SAY ABOUT BEİNG OPEN-MİNDED?
He hits the mark when he states that our mental prisons keep us from being open minded... our confirmation biases keep us from being open minded.

Don’t be openminded be discerning. Filter the nonsense…
I practice such simplicity often, but I'm never ceasing to marvel at those around me and wondering if they do as well? Probably totally normal, and totally un-needed.
Finally, why are we watching mostly your face?
Why are there no bulletin points, much as I love taking notes on subjects, Hmmmm?
I'm rather peeved to think you're anticipating comments.
But good information nevertheless...
Makes me wonder what you're books are like...
Only time may tell.
