The hidden Value in Pushing your Body to its Limits. | Damian Browne | TEDxHSG
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- Damian explains that achievements, experiences and memories are less important than the act of pushing yourself to your physical and mental limits. Only from the latter, does he gain the needed values for a stronger will and a calmer life. Damian Browne is an Irish adventurer and traveler who started his career as a professional Rugby player. Since his retirement from professional sports, he has visited more than 50 countries on six continents, joined numerous expeditions, completed the 257 km long "Marathon de Sables", known as the toughest footrace on earth, and has solo rowed across the Atlantic ocean in 63 days. Damian strives to constantly push himself both mentally and physically and is out to live an extra-ordinary life, filled with challenges, risk and growth. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

Great talk, loved the tips etc and well done on your achievements
That was excellent. Is there a longer version or am I imagining that it's edited? Thanks
Simple, yet brilliant.
Great talk, Damian. Speaking about "life is a fight", I wonder how much poor DP had to fight to capture your 6'5?
I realize it is kinda randomly asking but does anybody know a good place to watch newly released series online ?

This is a very interesting message. However, I do wish that the “F-Word” was not said by the speaker or the TEDx Talks group edited the word out, as a mixed group of listeners, learners (of varied age groups) &/or educators partake of these communications (as even if it was said one time, the offense still occurs to those who choose not to use this vulgar & debased form of language & alters the reception of the message). These messages should be kept clear of this type of language altogether, period.
Angel Hope, I understand that and I used to feel the same. But I came to the realization that that reaction has a name. It is a phobia. And as such it is in some way, large or small, debilitating for you. It is in a very real way preventing you from getting something useful, just as a phobia about flying can prevent people benefiting from certain travel. Note that I’m not saying I disagree with you as to whether or not he should have used the word, but that’s not the point. The word, and others like it, are always going to be around. The point is that even if there is truth in what you say, _you_ have developed a negative reaction - a flinch - over which you have no control. I’d recommend, based on my own experience, taking steps to disarm that reaction. Besides; the bloke’s Irish! 😎

Although I have read your response & you state that you understand me, I can see that your position on the subject matter of people not wanting to hear foul language in their hearing is considered &/or misclassified as a "phobia". I am clarifying that I begin listening more cautiously when I hear language like that, not because it's a "phobia" but because it is just plain offensive, & it setup a presidence that more foul language could potentially follow for those who do not want to be subject to hearing foul offensive language. To reiterate, it's offensive (not a "phobia") to hearers, listeners, learners (of various ages, young to elders), educators, etc, like myself (& it doesn't matter whether or not he's Irish, & I know Irish heritaged people who choose not to curse). Speaking in this way has been becoming so commonplace for some individuals while remaining offensive to others, period. There's nothing "phobic" about it. It's a matter of how some choose to communicate vs. others, & how some choose to accept this derogatory & foul/offensive way of speaking of not. I choose not to accept this as an acceptable form of commonplace language, because it's not to me & it shouldn't be, as far as I'm concerned. I listened to his entire Tedx Talk. The unfortunate detractor for the speaker was the drawback for me as the hearer... as the listener as to whether or not another offensive word would be stated during the speech, which never would have happened if the "F-word" had not been spoken. It's just simply being mindful & respectful of your audience, regardless of one's own personal acceptance of embracing the usage of foul language during public speaking. Just because it's accepted by some individuals does not make it the right thing to say. - Best Regards to you though ☺️
Angel Hope in what way could that be considered offensive? How does it offend someone
Dont be so precious. People being offended by this need a reality check. Must be horrible to live in such an uptight world.
@@BS-jh1ug No, I agree. Professional speakers from TEDex should not use any form profanity. This video could be viewed by very young people, influencing them to use the same type of language, tainting their way of speaking.
