The creativity in this TED Talk was inspiring! Loved the message ♥️ thank you Zach King!
I’m 41 and not only am I proud to say my childlike wonder never went anywhere - it has really come into its own, now that I have a young son to imagine along with me, and I with him. ✊🥰
you are a good mother, that sounds very great.
how amazing. i lost my childlike wonder at a young age, and i'm currently 15. this inspires me tbh
He is such an amazing storyteller!!!
Yes 😊
_Imagination starts with empathy, but it definitely doesn't end there:_
😊
That's a good one 🔥
Why are so many comments so negative? I thought the tricks were amazing and magical and although he might not have given a concrete step by step plan to get your childlike wonder back... isn't that the point? To look differently at things, to think what could this be. Don't look just at what is, look at what is possible. His magic tricks were the shift of perspective.
I personally really enjoyed it and wish I still had the abundance of imagination I had as a kid. A reminder to look at ordinary things and wonder is great in my opinion 😊💕
"All great contributors in all fields and endeavors must at some point come to terms with the reality and the fact that what they are giving comes from beyond them, that they themselves are a medium, a messenger and a provider for something greater from beyond themselves. This is the reality of their creativity."
From one of my favorite book: Wisdom from the Greater Community by Marshall Vian Summers
That is so cool.

Thank you!
Creativity level always goes up. Legendary Zach king 💯💯
I really like the energy and this kind of meaning. This is just like modern preaching has to be and not only on a scene, but in our lives.
I need this kind of paranoid back to make fun games.
The sense of "Why not" and "What if" are still extremely effective to let us feel curious and playful again.
Maybe without trying, I think he made my favorite magic show too. The last time I can remember playing with a box was in college when my roommate invented box skiing. We tied a rope to a bike and took turns pulling each other across the athletic field. That gave way to sitting on the handlebars and riding the bike sitting backward which is actually more challenging than it sounds. It was fun and re-enforced my belief that it is important to have friends of all ages--he was a little younger. I'm in a situation now where there are no young adults to hang out with and I can actually feel myself stagnating. Old people are good for sharing wisdom so you know which rules to break to get the proper hard knocks to be wise like them. Young people help one maximize fun in rule breaking and getting up in the morning to do it again despite the headache.
Damn man
I'm watching this video with my boys (8 & 7), and they agree with Zach King! They see treasure in trash, and it makes their momma go crazy sometimes, because I've been on a decluttering journey- 😄.
They've created a piggy bank out of an apple juice bottle, board games with cardboard- all sorts of crafts.
They love you, Zach King!
The setup for getting stuck in the screen was clever!
There is good side of being childlike and there is also negative side of being childlike.
Traits like having childlike sense of outlook in life, childlike creativity and other positive things are good traits to have.
Traits of children like being envious, not knowing which to prioritize and giving importance to things that dont matter, solely relying on people's approval and view of you as a source of your self confidence are traits that are not good to have.
This is the most outside the box Ted Talk for sure
To regain our childlike wonder we must be willing to get rid of a useless clutter of beliefs - prejudices - resentments - ambitions and ego-drive with a mind filled with wonder and utmost faith.
To regain our childlike wonder - we must make an effort to shed all past mental conditioning.
If we are mentally/emotionally/physically suffering - it is only because whatever have been our most sincere beliefs - they have not been helpful to us; they have not promoted our well-being.
Or people can avoid gaslighters like you who ilterally assume that everyone they preach to so bigotedly has issues. Curb your own ego and don't harass people online.
Edit: also, learn the difference between self belief and narcissism: self belief is being confident enough to believe that you're right, narcissism is a complete disregard for others to act as though you're right.
@@user-lv5rd6kb5oSo... Exactly what you're doing? Got it
The fact that you felt attacked by the OP's comment is really a cause for concern.
You took it farther than it needed to be taken, trust me
@@DiogoChris How exactly am I being narcissist? You're the one who accuses others with no proof just to look right; just like what I defined as narcissistic.
The fact is that no one wants to be lectured based on erroneous assumptions about themselves, and if you agree with the original poster's comment, you literally are implying that you're prejudiced and egotistical. You should focus on understanding others instead of preaching to them with your own eyes closed to them. Plus how many times have you seen people fail to practice what they preach?
@@user-lv5rd6kb5o You're doing exactly what you're describing once again
I'd advise that you take a step back and look closely.
One person is making general statements that could be interpreted on several ways, and the other is levying accusations based on their what they've perceived from the original statements.
Now, who do you think is acting based on their perceptions which they've successfully transferred on another without consideration of their actual point of view?
If you still can't see it, I don't think I have anything left to say
@@DiogoChris Firstly, if something is open to interpretation, it can be interpreted negatively, otherwise you're preventing it form being open to interpretation (duh).
Secondly, by saying they're general statements, you imply that the statements are to accuse everyone of bigoted assumptions. If you want to call out bad behaviour, it helps to be specific (again, obviously). At least I try to be specific, while you defend blanket statements and false accusations.
I'm unsurprised you have nothing left to say: nothing you've said has been helpful at all. At least I try to discourage judging others unfairly.
Came with assumptions left with curiosity.
Full of wonder and magic. Loved it! Thank you for inspiring, encouraging and amazing us in new ways, Zach King and team!
Zach King, now that's an unexpected guest
True that.
True that.
Fr was not expecting him
This might be the most amazing ted talk in ted talk's history.
So much to think over in Zach's talk - definitely one to revisit.
Will watch this video many times again in future. The fact that you're not only saying but also showing it make it so special.
Zach and his family are awesome! This was so so good!

Отличную фишку взяли на вооружение с детских новогодних елок моего детства когда детвора ждала Дед Мороза с подарками а он где-то застревал обычно. А потом также неожиданно появлялся на сцене с тем же мешком подарков что был в кадре!

Human default memory is full of assumptions.
There are tricks how to get rid of that. Just think & don't assume that things really are as they look they are.
Isn't that relying on instinct though? 🤔

_It is our essential nature to be compassionate. From the moment we're born our mother takes care of us. Without this care we would not survive. This experience is our first opportunity to learn that compassion is the root of all happiness. However, this natural appreciation of compassion seems to fade once we go to school. We need to be reminded that good health and a peaceful state of mind are founded on love and compassion._

Zach is so cool

Hey, Calvin grew up-and is now giving TED talks! Who'd've thunk. At least, he still loves big cardboard boxes. 📦👍
