- If you had €1000 and you could invest that money in someone's future, who would you bet on? Is it yourself? Outstanding speaker Conor Neill from IESE Business School illustrates how to self apply the three criteria Warren Buffett uses to choose the people in which he trusts with his investments.

Thank you very, very much, Mr. Neill!
Tools/Exercises
14:16 intelligence: write stuff down
15:38 energy: deal with the next unit
18:06 integrity: dedicate your time to things that matter
Good reminder
Thanks. Those three stuff is the meat of this ted talk. I wish there is somekind of summary for this content. 20 minutes lecture is quite long
thanks
"We so underestimate of what we can achieve in a year, and so overestimate of what we can achieve in a day. A page a day and you have a book in a year. You'll never write a book in one day."
@@TFrills edited mate. thanks for the correction
I’m sorry I do not know what are you trying to say or who are you trying to reach wrong person
thanks, this validated what's been brewing in my mind for a minute
I have heard from somewhere else that we overestimate how much we can achieve in 1 year and underestimate how much we can achieve in 5 years.
Damn this was powerful bro, thank you I needed to hear this!💪🏽💻👏🏽
Mr. Conor Neill, what an extraordinary individual you are! The rhythm of your voice and the depth of your wisdom are truly remarkable. Just imagine me 25 years from now !!! Yes one step at time!!!
I recently started summer courses at college, and combined with my blogging and programming I felt very overwhelmed, and what's been going through my mind lately is "there's not enough time in a day." Yet, when I finally sit down and start to write my code, all of the anxiety of not being able to finish what I set out to, not being able to make a post about it by midnight, it all goes away. All I need to do is stop thinking 15 minutes ahead, it does me no good. Thank you Conor Neill. :)
reading this today and trusting that you've become who you promised to be able to bet on... Your text is a a plus to me after listening tp Conor Neill. Thank you.
How is life now?
It's been 10 years I see
I loved this talk. The moment he said that writing a diary entry everyday would let you remember everyday of your life, altered my consciousness.
This was some serious reinforcement to what I already knew 7 years ago. Watching this for the 10th time in 2020 is just as powerful as the first time i listened to this ted talk. Thanks a million
I spend quite a bit of time listening to TEDx talks. I started to listen to them in my early twenties and hoped they would help give me insight . Quite frankly my most favorite TED talk ever! I listen to this about once a week and it never fails to inspire me!
Did they help you though?
Thanks for sharing. I remember a quote of Jim rohn.
Saying.
Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. We do not fail overnight. Failure is the inevitable result of an accumulation of poor thinking and poor choices. To put it more simply, failure is nothing more than a few errors in judgment repeated every day.
Incredible Ted talk! ❤️
I remembered that too. And I can see how this talk influenced the book Atomic Habits. At the end of the day, as Jim Rohn says, there are no new fundamentals. All these authors take each others knowledge and give them their own flavour. But the fundamentals are the same and have been written thousands of years ago.
This is one of the ted talks that forever stays with you. Amazing unique quality of speach, words and importance. This man is truly his speach all the way. Amazing.
This speech perfectly drives home the power of knowing your audience. Realizing that he is not speaking to native English speakers makes his control that much more incredible. A great tip for most speakers is to imagine the audience does not speak your native language. Would you not also slow down and use simple language.
very valuable remark!

You are a genius
Interesting. Please elaborate.
In the USA i would.
When people ask me how do I drive long distances on vacation. I reply I enjoy every mile of the trip knowing that soon we will arrive at the place we dreamed about going to one day. Take it one beautiful mile at a time.
Mark Lugo , thank you for an excellent observation. Best Regards,

This has to be one of the most profound Ted Talks, yet! A MUST watch ... When I wanted to become a barrister, I took one day of study at a time - getting up at 3am every day so that I had the time to fit the study in before work. This video is gold.
Excellent presentation. Remember, good things comes to those who can wait. He has a very effective way of talking. He's slowly gets to the point, but elegantly and very informatively. He's making sure that no one misses a thing.
This is one of the best ted talks! I watched this 8 years ago (2015) and the one thing that stuck with me was write every day. But every time I watch it there is something extra to learn and be inspired by.
One of our best TEDx talks at this moment...
Actually some good unoriginal and overused ideas expressed in the worst way and mixed with plenty of BS ...
@@-marcel True, but at the same time that was quite moving.
@@-marcel Could have been cut to 3 minutes...
I agree hardly
This js compketelu blown me away, when he asked Who woull you bet on... Mindlessly I thought... myself
So many mental nuggets. The more you say no to things that don't matter, the more you can say yes to the things that do matter. That is what i got frim this speech.
Mr. Conor Neill, you don't know how much I thank you for your speech. For the first time in my life I have realized just how important is to take the time to write things down. I was hoping to find a speech that trully gave me a guide to get the success that I deserve.
I admit that my problem in the past was that I kept looking at the bigger picture and not the little details.
Thanks to you I now know the three principals that will help me for the rest of my life:
INTEGRITY (INTEGRIDAD)
ENERGY (ENERGIA)
INTELLIGENCE (INTELIGENCIA)
Thank you so much for this speech and for the rest of the viewers please help spread the word for others to watch this...
@@ConorNeill THANK you Sir!
You just made my day! 🙏👏💖👏👣StaySafe! 🥰
This is like one of the best things i ever listened to in my whole life. I just had the beginning of a panic attack an hour ago. And sometimes because of this issue I feel so powerless, like I'm not able to achieve all of my dreams (and I'm a big dreamer) because I'm too weak.
The thing is I stopped smoking a month ago, I stopped Marihuana two years ago (the main reason for the panic attacks, they stay with you, even though they visit you less) and I lost some friends because of that. I don't know what will happen because of me stopped smoking, maybe I have to get distance to other people.
Anyway the point is he is so totally right. Human beings aren't perfect. Our nature is weak, but we decide. I just love this so bad. It's giving confidence and hope. Thanks Ted talk for giving the internet a good reason to exist.
Practical Tools to help you with each of these criteria
1. Integrity- Open their diary and count your hours. The coherence between a diary and your values is where your integrity lies. (When you track your minutes dedicated to tasks, you will know what your current value is and what you need to adapt in scheduling to allow enough time to for the values you tell your self means most to you. Be honest with yourself. If you say something means a lot to you then spend a lot of time on it!
2. Energy- Any task you do that takes time only allow your mind to see 15 minutes. Break and 15 minutes. Repeat and continue. (Deal with one step at a time, do not let your mind to jump ahead see the whole picture). Climb a mountain one step a time.
3. Intelligence- Write down everything. Write down your life and document yourself. Describe the marshmallow
Mohamed Ibrahim iï
It's the same thing I do when I run long distances. I just focus on the pace of my breathing in relation to my steps and never look ahead far enough to where the thought of how much further I have to go, will distract me from my complete attention to controlling my breathing so that I can accomplish the objective I have set for myself.
I agree completely
Thanks for the notes, Mohamed!
Thanks for this NOTE
This presentation is much more than the Discipline of Finishing. In fact, that one-step-at-a-time concept doesn't even show up until the last 5 minutes or so. This is one of those that you should take notes and then see how your decisions and life habits add up. One of the most valuable suggestions here is to write it down so you see where your TRUE attention is being spent or wasted. Thank you for sharing these pearls of wisdom with us.
Amazing, inspiring talk. I never realized how important it is to NOT look at the finish line. It's all about enjoying the journey. Thank you so much sir.
I stand corrected. Right on man

terrible, sloooooow talk, mashmallows shit
@@Alice-jf7rl Totally with you, Alice.
Incredible - but true. I had over the years had many motivational speeches but never had this impact. This Gentleman is equipped with the 'art of communication to be listened not heard' - Thank You Sir
Let me confess something, I've watched almost a hundred TED talks, watched a lot of talks from 'most viewed' or 'must watch' recommendations from the sea of TED talks. Sure, in a way they were all good & some of them were extraordinarily insightful, eye-opening & relatable. But, let me tell you something- THIS TALK IS REMARKABLE! It’s remarkable by its topic. It’s remarkable by its clarity. It's remarkable by his way of figuring things & making us understand the facts very easily. & above all, the lesson was remarkable.
In a sea of videos,speeches and talks on topics like being effective, working towards goal, ways to be successful & so on, this is one of the bestest talk which carries a lot of insight in just 23minutes.
Loved it!
Edit: this talk is extremely underrated. They didn’t even put it on the TED app..
So disappointing!
yes absolutely!
The start was slow for me but by the time he's put his point across it made me think, that everything I do and every situation I've been, really has just been a series of my personal decisions. The reasons why I look down on people even when I myself have nothing to prove is just a series of my own personal inadaptability. And even this right now that I am commenting would not have come to fruition had I not seen your comment of full appreciation and so Thank you!
Thanks! Mindtricks to finishing. Anything new to a person will always be vague unless repeated. A good teacher always repeats a lesson or principle until it creates an impression in the students' mind. It is a good thing that these videos can be repeated over and over again until one can recall and apply the lessons.
I had always wondered what makes some men (or women) great! What is the one thing common in the lives of Churchill, Caesar, Napolean, Ataturk, Ghandi etc etc. I think I finally found it nearing my 60th birthday few years back! It is the fact that they all kept a diary! When I talk to my young colleagues, young engineers at the beginning of their career, I advise them to keep a diary. This holds true for anyone in any profession or walk of life. I wish I had known this 50 years ago when I tossed away the diary my father had given me as a birthday present. He had given me the most important present but I had nobody to advise me about its importance!....
This is an extremely well prepared and delivered TEDx talk!
Churchill was an alcoholic war criminal mate, bad choice!
The difference isn't s diary, it's the belief that other people matter. When you truly believe other people matter you'll immediately realize that you matter. Now you have something to write about.
I’ve often wondered this many sleepless nights 😆🤔
Or - could it also be that there is someone in the background who is supporting then and doing all the mundane tedious everyday work, so they don’t have to and can concentrate on their career/passion/calling ? Because doing tedious boring mundane tasks for little to no recognition or reward takes a fair bit of discipline as well.
For some it's the opposite. Realizing that You matter then leads you to treat others like they do.
I'm speechless , this is absolutely the best Ted talk I watched so far
What's an inspiring talk!
Today is Aug 01, 2021, I dedicate to bet on myself from this day. I would love to applied all the principle that he mentioned in the talk and come back at the next 5 years (01 - Aug 2026) to see the achievements. Who would join me to start this adventure, leave the comments, I would love to have companions along the way!
How are you doing Thuan Thien ? I hope my comment serves you a reminder in your goal.
@@SkGow I'm doing well, thank for the reminding.I'm pretty much on my way to reach the goal. I wish you all the best!
Aug 4, 2022 - the day I finally listened to this TED talk after putting it in my Watch Later. I want to come back here after 5 years, too.
Currently- writing something about my day
August 19th. I'm in! In 5 years time I will clock in to evaluate my journey. All the best guys!
Novembre, 13 ,2022 A homework is what brought me to this video, but it's good I guess so I'm joining .
See you after 5 years inshallah
Ich habe vor kurzem Sommerkurse am College begonnen und fühlte mich in Kombination mit meinem Bloggen und Programmieren sehr überwältigt. In letzter Zeit ging mir durch den Kopf: "Es gibt nicht genug Zeit an einem Tag." Doch als ich mich endlich hinsetze und anfange, meinen Code zu schreiben, verschwindet die Angst, nicht in der Lage zu sein, das zu beenden, was ich mir vorgenommen habe, und nicht in der Lage zu sein, bis Mitternacht einen Beitrag darüber zu schreiben. Alles was ich tun muss ist aufhören 15 Minuten voraus zu denken, es tut mir nicht gut. Vielen Dank, dass Sie Conor Neill. :) :) :)
Why does this not have more views!??? It's one of the most inspirational TED talks I've heard! And I've seen quite a few. I've been telling myself all day "Don't stare at the marshmallow" and it has helped me stay on track and not get distracted :) Great talk.
I agree, I have listened to tons of TED Talks and this talk ranks very highly among the few very inspirational ones.
I am combining the lessons in this talk with Covey's 7-habits and following Julian Treasure's guidelines about speaking. I am seeing the impact in my personal and professional life already.
Oddly enough I am a trail runner too; not as hardcore as Kilian though :)
p.s. instead of a pocket diary I started a private blog only I can see via blogger. I am using the function to post blog-posts via emails so I can "write" on the go, or from anywhere.
This video just changed my life. I've always been a thinker, not a doer. And whenever I had to do something simple like "unload the dishwasher" All I thought about while doing it is it being clean. That's just a drag. I just need to pop in some headphones and think "one more song" :)
Melissa Graham Your comment motivated me to watch the video, and I'm glad I watched it; thank you :-)
Melissa Graham Because nobody likes to start. Starting is the hardest part, keep going is hard, but finishing is easy.
Melissa Graham The title is not helping and the speech is not accessible via TEDx App (I've tried on Apple TV App and youtube). Maybe because people especially young generations are used to quick fix they'd rather get a 3 bullets point... The mastery way is lost, worse it's not even respected anymore.
Omg.... This is probably the best Ted talk I've ever seen !
This was, by far, one of the greatest speeches on success that I’ve ever heard !! Thank you 🙏
I celebrate that teacher who made you write everyday from 14. I believe he/she started you on the journey here. I feel my life absolutely altered by this new understanding.
That's one of the best Ted talks I've ever watched, totally amazing, he brought some inspirational ideas that could actually change things in an unbelievable way, Well done!
Great talk! Key points on Warren Buffet’s three criteria: 1. Integrity: do what you plan to do; 2. Energy: towards health and action (rather than thinking about action); 3. Intelligence: specifically adaptive intelligence. Deal with only the next unit, without thinking about the finish line: a page a day, you will have a book in a year. Write down things you did and reflect on them, you will get to know yourself better, eventually you are the person you need to bet on. Very powerful and unpresumptuous speech!
i would say this was the best ted talk i have ever watched
This is a very good speaker and a passionate, intelligent, inspiring talk. I think what he is saying is to be true to yourself, your own values.
Enjoyed this talk very much. I watched it years ago and the (only) one thing that stuck with me from back then was to focus only on the next step when things get hard. That has been helpful over the years, even though I had forgotten where I learned it. Hearing this talk again has now opened the greater message for me and I am committed to living by this. Thank you!
I am so glad i found this vid at the age of 20, sitting here in my room searching for motivation during the lockdown period. I will again comment in July 2021 to tell you the stuff I have achieved while applying this knowledge. cuz somebody once told me and I wrote in it my diary that ''knowledge is not knowledge unless it is an applied knowledge. ''
One of the greatest TED talks of all time. I felt inspired, felt integrity, I felt energy, and I felt intelligence. I felt a marshmallow. I It gave me goosebumps. It's that good. Thank you, Mr. Conor Neill.
The silent pauses you use often in your speech... That's really fantastic! And it makes the speech even more interesting...!!! Great talk...!!!
Very rarely I comment on a video, I just wanted to say something about him ... this is one of the finest presentation with good content useful for every one
When he mentioned documenting your life everyday, I came to a realization that the journals I wrote over the years were not a waste. When I read back the things I wrote, I could not believe the history I've been through and the growth I have attained. His point on taking things one step at a time made me re-think about my youth when I used to do that, because I always want the end result now and forget the process getting to the desired result. I would totally bet on myself now. What a brillant talk. One I very much needed especially during this trying time with COVID. God Bless this man.
Gian Mikaelo Alegre 📓 🖊
Enjoy the process instead. So you not get so dissapointed.
He is speaking to a room of SPANISH people. I suspect amongst other things he is speaking slowly out of generous consideration that English is not their native language.
This talk is BRILLIANT and applicable for any type of success you might want. Relationship, health, wealth...
To bring this back to YOU and the invitation he lays forth.. If you are complaining about the speed in which it was delivered, perhaps your mind is really just creating a diversion, because your ego does not want YOU to pay attention to it. Consider... This may be a way your ego sabotages other areas of your life. Success can be scary :)
Yes, it is, I am from Brazil(speaking Portuguese), so with that manner to speak, I could understand very well
Big Hug Media THIS!
The guy is talking about being present and enjoying the moment, of course he’s gonna be slow and chill af. Also for the language comprehension. I agree with you, people complaining about that are just annoying 👎
This is maximum speech speed to listen and understand (not translate, but understand)
First time I clapped while watching youtube. An outstanding speaker. I'll search your other trainings.
Yes ,I was clapping loud.!!!
Hahaha, crazy, I clapped too.
Happy to not be the only one having done this...
I just finished watching this wonderful ted talk and I'm in tears. I needed a strategy to improve my productivity. This has been a suggested video. I will watch it again
Conor, your message was fantastic! I'm changed. I've been writing every day since listening to your talk and even more importantly for me is that I'm ALL IN now; I know who I'm betting on:). Thank you!
that is wonderful to hear Karen
I enjoined a lot ,I learn a lot.thank you mister Conor.The fact that you speak slow,permet me to absorb better the information.Sure I will not forget your talk.Great presentation,high class
Tool to maximize intelligence = Writing down any idea or your own life / write diary.
Tool to maximize energy = one step at a time
Tool to maximize integrity = The coherence between diary with value
Success is repeated consistent good habit.
This is one of my fav Ted talks.... Thank you Connor Neill
The best content i have ever seen on tedx talks. The information and knowledge provided by this man is amazing.
But somebody must teach him how to speak without putting people to sleep. I'm glad RUclips has the functionality to fast forward. I saved 8 minutes of my precious time. Also he said "Who would you bet on?" more number of times than the number of times people said "Covid-19" in 2020.
Overall this Talk gets an 8/10 from me.
"A page a day you'll have a book in a year. "
This!
❣️❣️❣️💯🙏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💋💋💋💋💋💋
This!
Too many books already! Too much possibility! Live your life, ambitious or not. Appreciate the beauty or not; no one should be telling anyone else how to succeed! You do it the way you see fit, and hopefully do not hurt anyone in the process. Namaste.
The miracle of compounding.
I'm absolutely blown away that there are negative comments about this. Starting with zero money and four children and an unemployed wife 20 years ago, I started and still own a small advertising business that more than quintupled my personal income, while allowing me to employ others along the way, give generously to what I believe in, get 100% out of debt, run a marathon and win an international body-transformation contest with my wife - among other things - At 50 years old, I can tell you that my success is in large part based on employing these three principles. My failures are almost 100% related to NOT employing these principles. Going forward, I intend ot focus more directly on these things. I listened all the way through and took notes. I thought his delivery was perfect. Any faster, and it would be hard to think about what he was saying. The people who haven't because it's "too slow" must be either really intelligent, or just impatient.
Really inspiring and very motivational. I watched it twice. And this is now my third time with my wife. Your words spoke to me, and I am repeating E.I.I. in my head all the time... Energy. Intelligence. Integrity.
Best wishes from Lebanon [and my wife's homeland Canada] :)
Yes. I used to ride a bicycle around two towns. I knew it would take an hour or two or three to get from one destination to another. I accepted it would take a long time to get from one destination to another.
The only thing I would focus on is the NEXT rotation of the pedal.
Eventually I would arrive at my destination.
I have to remember this.
Because , many times I have become overwhelmed with the task ahead, and fail to even take the first step, and avoided many opportunities that felt too big for me.
Thank You for this presentation.
Learning to say No, I followed Warren Buffet's Strategy. Before that, I was doing everything I could for everyone but myself. I continue learning to have integrity, improve my energy through physical endurance and exercise intelligence by obtaining more knowledge through reading , watching influential, positive and honest people. Namast'e
One of the best TEDtalks. Really simple but vital points. Neatly and gradually revealed in a thoroughly engaging manner. A true guru or zen-like manner of bringing home the point. Connor, you're awesome
Dear Conor,
This is a fabulous presentation, thank you for motivating me to take immediate action to handle an important issue. Trust that 2020 will be good to you in every way . Best Regards.

A pleasure John. 2020 was an interesting experience!
@@ConorNeill omg you do replies! I just subscribed to your channel, Conor! Best thing that happened to me this 2021 was watching this tedtalk. Very inspiring. Godbless and take care sir!
it was a few days ago when I found Conor Neill, in the First Time I watched I Knew he is smoking Something, I watched more than 15 Talks already but this's amazing and Incredible.
I'll be watching this over and Over again Until It sinks into my Subconscious mind.
Need more down to earth concrete stories. 6 months of ideas. It works.
I was searching RUclips for "discipline and concentration" and came over this vid and I enjoyed it. It doesn't quite apply to me since I'm a gambler and an inventor, so I'm chasing the Jackpot -- small steps bore me to death. But from that specific angle (based on Warren's 3 criteria) his speech made sense, was even captivating ..
quess how far in speech when read your comment n bet thst as much diciplin to character. ..
***** Thanks and Best Regards, Conor!
I sincerely admire you way of giving talks.It's a delight to listen to you from your first words to the last ones. And you know what? Your style is a very similar to my favourite speaker's style. Relaxed voice and pace, carefully choosen words, well structured ideas, presented in a captivating way. ... Thank you, for sharing with us your talks!
WE ARE BLESSED TO HEAR YOUR ADVICE MAN ALL RESPECT CONOR YOUR AN AMAZING TEACHER
Extremely Inspiring. Journaling your life .Its so powerful. and just being present in the moment , focusing on the next 15 mins. I am achieving and accomplishing so much more in my life. Its one of the keys to living a Great life. Yes I am betting on Myself.
This is the most inspiring speech I have had on TED so far!!! Thank you Conor for changing my life!
Now I understand life is just one step at a time. Thank you so much!!!
#16:03 aha, that is the trick. Don't think where you are going or what you will accomplish. Just think what you are going to do in next 15 minutes. About the goals and other stuff, think when you are writing!
Amandeep Singh Thakt’s really about breaking large goals into smaller chunks that are more manageable.
Yeah, and that;s why you need to plan. The plan is what takes you forward.
I was given the Marshmallow test. I ate it right after the Door closed and I am happy, and Life has been very very good to me in my 50 Years. Risk, Faith, and Patience.
When he asked "who do you bet on?" I would say 90% myself. However, if this is 5 years ago, I would never even dare to think about myself to bet on.
That's great to hear. Keep up the positive vibes.
10% on me
such a well structured, well spoken and used simple language so subtly and coherently to sum up all we need to be succesful!!! Incredible!!!
'Outstanding speaker' is certainly accurate, but it simply doesn't do him justice. For the record, my intro would have been: "Conor Neill should consider changing his name to Obi-Wan Conobi, because the man is a Jedi Master of public speaking." That is, of course, until my editor would get hold of it and hurriedly red-pen the complement down to something less colorful and/or skirting trademark infringement, something more like...'outstanding speaker.'
All kidding aside, I've seen most or all of the TEDx talks on self-motivation (yes, including Tony Robbins) during a recent quest for inspiration, and this video is number one with a bullet in my book, both in substance and style. In addition to the presentation's overall excellence, Mr. Neill also aced the most crucial element of such a talk (which, quite inexplicably, is often either given short shrift or even omitted entirely); namely, providing the audience with the practical tools necessary for them to achieve long-term success in attaining each of the provided goals.
After seeing this video, I checked out his RUclips video series/linked blog on communication skills and personal achievement, which left me similarly impressed; the videos are engaging and succinct (mostly 1-4 minutes, perfect for my ADD self), each providing excellent, practical tools and strategies, and the blog posts provide additional quality advice and strategies with similar brevity.
Muchas gracias, Mr. Neill...here's hoping that we have you around to continue providing a positive impact and inspiration to others for many years to come.
Bruh get to the fricking point! You have great content but you're dragging it out. 🥱🤷🏼♀️
I've always lived by the mantra...
If it's going to be, then it's up to me. This talk articulates that perfectly. I often tell my kids...
If you always do, what you've always done, you'll always get, what you've always got.
This video showed up in my feed yesterday. I took one look at the title and kept scrolling. I'm bad a seeing things through to completion. I guess part of me was worried that Id find that I was deficient or broken in some irreparable way and that Id continue to be a poor finisher. This morning I watched the video, challenging myself to confront whatever its contents might be and Im glad that I did.
Thanks Conor! and TEDx! ... that was one of the best things i ever heard about ... those 3 Tools were awesome :-)
Tools for Intelligence = Write It Down
Tools for Energy = Focus on Just The Next Unit (time, distance, step, action etc)
Tools for Integrity = Schedule your Priority (let you Calendar be aligned with your Values)
Best talk I have heared so far, I heared quite a lot.
People that are bitching about the length of the presentation didnt enjoy the moment and therefore missed the whole point of his talk. Way to waste 20 min..
it really is the best i heard so far as well ; this should spread .. i think its pretty much undervalued...
I've been listening to Tedx talks.. and i just wonder how come i did not come pass this Talk ?
+Neil thank you for your Talk. sir ! .. 👏👍
+Lowinator yes it was truly amazing
It is the best ted talk so far for me as well
Exactly!
There is much more to this message than the initial minutes of the speech show. Only towards the end did everything sink in as I adjusted to the speed of his voice. Very good talk
SO INSPIRATIONAL TO LIFT UP ONE'S LIFE TO THE FULLEST BY PRIORITIZING THEIR GOALS.
This is one of the most inspiring talks I have ever seen on TEDx!
This was the most helpful and inspiring ted talk i've had the pleasure to witness in a while. Thank you, Conor Neill.
;-)
Sublime.... Je risque de le regarder une bonne centaine de fois.
Thank you! You are truly a “gem”. I will be writing a card every day from this moment on. I have a son I want to be a role model.
God bless you!
How many cards do you have
I came home today thinking about exactly this fact, success and failure are the results of repeated decisions. Thanks to making me feel synchronized. Cheers

My Favorite line.
Well summarized Hans ;-)
Wow this should have 500 million views , has to be the BEST TED TALK I have seen and I have been watching TED for at least 10 yrs. THE BEST, and I’m gonna learn it and teach it !
Just remembered, when Conor says "who do you bet on?" for the first time, I jokingly said "myself". Little did I know that by the end of the video, I will mean it.
Satin Rana 🔥
Good bet! I'll reach out in 20 years and you will let me know how well the bet has gone ;-)
Hohoho i saw this comment before the final, you spoiled me! Hahaha
somehow I am different, when he asked in the early of the talk I dont have any answer but somehow after his talk towards the ending when he ask again the same question, I confidently answer myself before he said.
Now I felt so inspire to write a diary and understand the importance of writing a diary.
When I clicked this video, I thought this was going to be the most boring lecture ever. Turned out one of the best and most inspirational lectures. I have even written stuff down. He was extremely well prepared and clear. Thanks a lot! :)
First five minutes ....

Next five minutes....
I'm having a mindgasm.
Next minute....
Put it into action.
Exactly! Haven't been this inspired to take action in a long time.
Agreed!! He just kept dropping great knowledge and inspiration 🙌🏽
This is the best ted talk ive encountered so far. so practical n he basically said that finishing is possible altho it may take some time, but it really is attainable. But also reminding me that enjoying the process is important n it shapes how its gonna end. I also love the 3 strategies, made me realize that its necessary to say no to things that dont line up with my priorities. bcus i have this tendency to say yes everytime becus i dont wanna disappoint anyone, but in the end i get overwhelmed n cant finish the task. i very much love this talk. and yes, im also betting on myself!
extremely inspiring. I am going to listen to this every single day...
So, are you still keeping up?
Doesn't look like it.
I wanna say the same
One of the very best and most inspiring Ted Talks I ever came across.
Just watched this one twice this morning. Thanks for the inspiring talk Conor Neil
Excellent Ted talk by Connor Neill! A must for many. I have severe ADD and his pacing was perfect. It allowed me to take notes, while my mind could internalize the valuable information that he presented. I took notes and began my journal/diary as soon as he finished. Having previously been an instant gratification marshmallow eater, I not only would’ve eaten mine, but I would have asked the delayed marshmallow eaters, looking at their shoes, if they wanted their marshmallows. I was a multi-tasking instant gratification/pleasure distractor from my true values. Thank you, Conor. You helped change my life. P.S. The weekly calendar was an eye opening experience.
Amanda Worthington going to apply the same and assess it after 3 months / 6 months / 9months / 12 months / (write a book , if I succeed ) I will mention this video !! I will succeed ! good luck to you too !!
@@Kassiusday Sending you the most positive light and wishes for success. I hope to hear from you or better yet see your book on the shelves. Best of everything
Wow the delivery of this talk was amazing. Damn right, I'll bet on myself.
I feel like I'm currently attempting to rewire my brain through watching Ted videos, I guess it's ironic that I'm trying to learn how to be more productive and creative by spending the best part of a day watching videos on RUclips. This was a great watch though and I definitely feel like I'm going to use the methods he talked about. Hopefully I can start using my time more productively.
This is the best Ted Speech i have ever come across. Kudos to Conor Neil
Amazing speech about three keys to achieve personal fulfillment in life. I agree with him that writing about your emotions and ideas everyday is one of the most powerful habits you can develop to create positive changes in your life.
Lessons learnt :
1. one thing he missed was children who didn't ate that marshmallow, were given another marshmallow (REWARD) after 10 minutes. Patience is SWEET.
2. Break a bigger/TOUGH task into smaller/EASY task . e.g 42000 swimming strokes === stroke, stroke, breathe
3. Create an environment to BREAK bad habits( don't stare at marshmallow) and convert them into GOOD habits. e.g not buying chocolate from supermarket, keeping your running shoes next to your door etc
jaskirat singh mann he said they got two if they didn't eat it
Nicely elaborated and structuring some of the old known phrases like "Practice in front of the mirror", "Practice makes perfect", "One at a time" etc... thoroughly enjoyed
I'm love his great heart and his extremely well expressive human product. Lots oflove from me.
I salute to Conor for his Beautiful, Inspiring, Wisdom words for improving our life towards betterment. Thank You and Bless You CONOR.
I've enjoyed & managed my tasks/self-development projects better since I watched this video.
