I appreciate everyone taking the time to watch my talk here. Thank you. I do hope that you got value from it. Thanks for having me TEDx Aston University!
@@JimmyNaraineOfficial Thank you so much Jimmy , I am also on the way: Pain to Power for Public Speaking. I created 100+ UA-cam videos and a few presentations
Viktor Frankl’s story is such a powerful example of resilience. You’re an amazing speaker, this talk will stay with me for a long time. From Viktor Frankl to Maria, every story shared was deeply inspiring. You’ve shown us that life’s toughest moments can lead to the most beautiful outcomes.
I'm glad you resonated with the stories. I didn't want this talk to be about me so I left my story for the end to give people some context and complete the message. Viktor and Maria are extremely inspiring people, indeed. Thanks for tuning in.
The way you broke down 'pain into purpose' was pure brilliance🔥Thank you for being so genuine. Your words about reframing hardships have completely shifted my perspective. So much gratitude for your wisdom🙏✨
Such a great message Jimmy. We really do get to decide the perspective we take in every situation. It's worth teaching ourselves to reframe it for the better. Great talk!
This made me reflect on my own struggles and how I’ve grown from them. Jimmy, your authenticity and passion are so inspiring. Thank you for this beautiful talk🙌
I'm gad to hear it. I firmly believe that instead of passively listening/watching, it's so key to always relate whatever we are learning to our personal circumstances. Cheers for watching!
Thanks Beer! We've learned a lot about resilience during our week with Wim Hof, didn't we? Thanks for tuning in here man, glad you resonated with the talk.
I’m in awe of the energy and insight you brought to this talk, Jimmy. The idea that we can train our brains to find opportunities in hardship is a game-changer. Absolutely loved it🌟
This was such a raw and heartfelt talk🌍The 'reticular activating system' part blew my mind. it’s incredible how much power we have over our focus. Thank you for this life-changing wisdom
I am the boy who with Maria mum scenes 2005 to 2020 still now I am in Dubai only for her. ❤❤ Not only me like as me so many students in Dubai only for her
Hi Jimmy! Your message about reframing pain into purpose is life-changing💡The story of Viktor Frankl really hit home! such a powerful reminder to never lose hope🙏
Excellent talk, Jimmy! How does one deal with frustration and regret over past mistakes? I have difficulty finding the positives when I recall faces of people I let down or instances when I did not have the maturity or clear thinking to rise to the moment. It is a drain of energy and especially tricky since these images and internal movies don't have words to argue or reason with as in CBT. I want to use these experiences to strengthen an inner resolve to do better and to develop a sense of assuredness that in the future my presence of mind will be reliable. While I can remind myself of this goal when things are calm, it is harder to do in the heat of the moment.
I feel you. It is hard. However, the way I see it - your life is like a movie, and in order for the movie to be worth watching, the main character needs to fail. Messing up creates an opportunity for growth and growth is exciting. Nobody would wanna watch a movie of someone living a perfect existance never making any major mistakes. Boring, you probably wouldn't last 15 minutes. We need failures and we need to get sometimes slapped in the face. I understand that it's trickier when it comes to the feeling of letting others down. However, the way I reframe it is that it gives them an opportunity to grow. For instance, look at Goggins - his father was abusive, but all that hardship also made him who he is - one of the hardest men on the planet.
On a more practical note, I highly recommend taking a daily confidence shower. All of us (well, almost all of us) take a shower and brush our teeth every day. What about our mental health though? How many of us take even just a few minutes daily to reflect on our positive sides & wins? Almost none. We are hardwired to focus on negative as it's our survival mechanism. This is why I recommend creating a list of all the things you could be proud of in your life, grateful for and happy about. Start each day by reviewing the list, feeling grateful for your gifts, skills, abilities, inborn capacities etc really focusing on the feeling deep inside. Regularly add new items to the list. In no time, you will override how you perceive yourself. Your internal dialog will shift to more positive and you will notice that your identity is becoming more powerful and positive. As a result, it will be easier to deal with some of the feelings you described. I hope this helps.
@@JimmyNaraineOfficial Thank you for your replies. They are helpful for me and probably others who read the comments as well! I like the idea of a daily routine of reviewing one's gratitude. I can couple it with a daily task such as straightening, or reading before bed, etc. . . Reviewing the many gifts, skills, and capacities upon which I, like everyone else, have been naturally bestowed, sometimes makes me sad when I reflect on how little I have built upon them or accomplished with them. We should reframe such thinking, though, as an opportunity to recognize and make good use of them from now on, each day. Thanks again.
