When I was younger I always hated TED talks because they’d play them in school all the time. 15 now and I can’t stop watching. It’s amazing how much you can learn from these people. Props to this great guy for bringing such a great lesson to everyone.
It all depends on your approach to learning, at school the teachers try to cram their student with as much as the curriculum demands, which can mentally exhausting. If you maintain the 'yearn to learn' it becomes far more pleasurable, to learn without educational pressures. As you're starting to realise Amber.
@@hookbeak3516 yeah I wish I had that desire to keep learning I was smart but hw wasnt my thing and yeah I'd say just all the curriculum I got exhausted and stopped trying as much, big regret I could have easily done way better and absorbed alot more knowledge that I now see in a lot of situations are nice to have
@@juavang1833 How else will they know what mistakes they are making, and if they can’t take constructive criticisms, that is the clue to never go back.
Not sure this is completely true. Sometimes complaining (respectfully) can lead to having the situation corrected, compensation, better self reflection, communication, or wisdom.
Going through something right now and stumbled upon this. I cried during this talk from gratitude. This definitely hits different when you are weathering the storm. Peter Sage always comes through with the wisdom.
I equally am. I had to replay this video and take it in word by word. I hope that in one year from now I will revisit this reply and add a like to it after moving past what I am going through at the moment.
How do you do that ? How do you cope with big career fail and regret? I am in such pain due to a catastrophic career choice and dont know how to deal with it..
Anyone who has read the famous book Think and Grow Rich knows that every adversity carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit. Peter’s inspiring story is a stunning example of how to apply this concept in the real world and turn an obstacle into an opportunity to help others! Bravo!
What an inspiring orator! "Many of the gifts in life that come to us come wrapped with a thin layer of problems. Probably to stop somebody else from stealing our gifts."
Just came across Peter Sage last week and I am now following him. Amazing teacher, coach, person. He was created to better others. God bless Peter Safe.
Thanks Peter. You are the real deal. There are only a few coaches outside who are able to walk the talk in those circumstances. You live what you teach and its a pleasure to have you as a teacher. Thanks again for this inspiring video. And btw I think it was a gift for the inmates to have you there.
What an incredibly gifted beautiful man. Peter , I've been going through a very tough time the last while and you miraculously showed up on my phone feed a month or two ago. You have been comforting me and helping me get better at viewing life as an adventure without even knowing it. Your wisdom is so far reaching.
14:58 "...the best trees don't grow in the best soil, they grow in the strongest winds. So if you want to be the best version of yourself, start praying for strong winds, and don't complain when they show up." I've heard that many people pray for patience...and then they proceed to go through situation after situation where their patience is pushed past their limit. As for myself (already knowing that about people who pray for patience), a few years back I prayed for strength. Guess what happened...I ended up going through situation after situation that was like those "strong winds", so that over and over again I have felt like I was pushed so hard that I was at my breaking point. (A few times, I did feel like I had been broken.) I still don't feel like I am strong-enough to bear the burdens in my life...but I'm stronger than I was before, stronger than I was months ago, stronger than I was years ago when I prayed for strength. It worked, but I had no idea what I was asking. This is a good analogy in the video. It clarified and gave me words for what I already realized had happened. Now I understand that when I prayed to be stronger, I was praying for "strong winds" to come, I was inviting change to come in my life. I don't like the wind...but I now know that I don't have to fear the wind or shrink back from it. _____ Another important tree analogy that I have learned from is from the Bible (Jeremiah 17:7-8) about being "like a tree planted by the water that extends its roots by a stream, and does not fear when the heat comes". Like how this presenter, Peter Sage, had a purpose in mind when he went into the prison, ... I think that it is important to know where your strength comes from. It matters that you know what you believe, and that no matter the circumstance, you can choose how you face it.
I fucken hate panic attacks I yousto think people were bs about em but karma came around and I was having em didn’t even know what tf was goin on it came when I least expected it still tho as bad as they feel I always try to fight it every time 💯 never in my life has gave me that type of feeling it’s different from any other pain I’ve felt (anxiety & panic attacks) I’ll never underestimate em again i really had to work to at least get through them I’m glad I don’t have em constantly nomore
@@Serratosteven I also did not understand panic attacks and by mistake have told a few people just to "get over it". "It's all in your head". But once i had my first panic attack, i completely understood the sheer terror they were going through. It is a type of feeling that I would not wish on anyone. What helps me when I experience these is immiedetly grounding myself in the moment by calling out three objects around me. And then touching three objects. And then I'm back.
@@sottosotto4056 never thought of that technique hopefully i won’t have anymore it’s been about 6 months but still it hurts to the point where I’m like damm I never new I had these feelings before stowed away and I be boxing and was always a stand up guy a lil cocky I had to-humble myself after those incidents I just knew that I wasn’t as tough as I thought I was aha still tho the last time I had one it was like the 3-4th one that month and I was already adapting a lil to it not saying I couldn’t feel the pain because I forshure did but I was Conscience of it and my self talk was my way back to reality
As soon as i was arrested i thought (Who i am and what i want is now irrelevant) I did not turn my self back on until the day i was released. Ashamed to say i was a Criminal that deserved it, but now proud to say i am not any more.
The first step to transform yourself is acknowledging and being able to call yourself out when you know you’re in the wrong. Big steps ahead of you my brother continue to be a student of life. 💪🏽
Truly inspiring story. It’s one thing talk-in the talk but quite another walking it. I will be sharing this amazing story with my all my family, friends and business network. God bless you Peter.
this is definitely one of the best Ted talks that I have ever seen in my entire life, i mean not just inspirational, but also really really applicable!
Freedom is a state of mind is ultimate which I will remember throughout my life. Such a personality achieved every thing even if has nothing. Thanks for such a great real life story of the presenter.
"The strongest trees don't grow in the best soil, they grow in the strongest winds. So if you want to become the best version of yourself, start praying for some strong winds and don't complain when they show up" 15:00
Peter's Ted talk combined with his recent book release "The inside track" will most definitely raise the level of consciousness of every human being that reads/listens to them. The best 10 dollars I have ever invested.
1 Give yourself a positive identity: Mindset & behaviour will shift. 2 The power of acceptance: Dont waste time complaining, b'cos u cant go back to change things. 3 Every adversity comes with the seed of equivalent or greater benefit! : every coin has 2 sides. 4 Contrast frame: compare current adversity with worse condition. 5 Environment doesnt define you, but it's an opportunity to define youself. 6 Having adversity, it's not that we're unlucky, but it's designed for us to grow & contribute. Strongest trees dont grow in the best soil, they grow in the strongest winds. 7 When adversity shows up, start looking at what u can learn/who u can become rather than looking what u could lose.
At 34 I'm experiencing a situation brought on by elements stranger than fiction, but I couldn't be happier it's making me reevaluate my life, I'm realizing how unhappy I am and how my years on this earth are. Limited and I need to make the best
Thank you so much. My brother at age 43 was unjustly sentence to a similar prison in America since then my mother and my sister have died from heartache because we can’t believe that someone innocent like my brother will be trapped in a prison he’s been there for 14 years and we worry about his life every day
So sorry to hear that Debbie. Send a copy of this message to my assistant at D E A at petersage dot c.o.m and I'll have a copy of The Inside Track Letters Sent to him with my compliments.
Thank you Peter for sharing your amazing story! Very few inspirational speakers would have passed the test of applying what they teach in such hard circumstances. You're a huge inspiration for the world!
Yessssss!!!! Peter Sage so proud of this talk, you made me cry and you inspired me at the same time. I am so looking forward to seeing what you are going to do next and i am glad you are out of there my friend. Big Hug.
One of the most valuable tools that I've learned from you is that Life is a growth-centric experience. It's still hard to realize what an example that you've set in such an environment and thanks for showing and inspiring me what's possible!
A few if my notes, feel free to add. 1. Eliminate 'if only and what if', worthless it won't help 2. Freedom is a state of mind no one can take away from you unless you give them that power. 3. Your environment gives you the chance to define yourself
There is a always something good in everything challenge in life. It is seeing a reason and purpose. Your perception and attitude is everything! Love this story Peter! You planted seeds that changed lives! God bless 🙏 you!
I truely thank UA-cam for recommending this to me. I am 22 years old and am very miserable. I hope that this message could guide me through this hardship and help me find my true self. Let us be fearless, make the changes needed, and become who we are meant to be.
Super inspiring how Peter turned such challenging circumstances into ongoing impact around the world! Wonderful principles to help anyone overcome adversity in their own life. Thankyou! :)
God works in wondrous ways! He turned your adversity into an opportunity to make a big impact in the lives of people... just like the prisoners you helped. I pray that more people would be like you... helping to make the world a better place to live in.
Thank you for your true share ..life is a battlefield for everyone and we all are warriors in this unique battlefield world we all go through, everyone has their unique battles to fight with by ownself abilities ..thank you for your unique the hardest battle lifetime journey shared..great RESPECT for you..God bless you.
What a hero. Or as Peter would like to be referred to as : What a regular guy... doing the right thing . My life was in quite a mess when I first discovered "Peter sage" but I think I was meant to find him, And oh my goodness has he helped me... YES ABSOLUTELY
Very powerful and inspiring. We need to have this as a course in our secondary schools to help give the students the resilience they need to move positively and purposefully through their lives
Truly one of the most inspiring talks I’ve ever heard! I listen to it every few months and no matter what’s going on in the world this video always lifts my sports
Thank you for this. I believe that conquering patience and like you said unwrapping the paper to see the gift in adversity are top notch to living a life with meaning
Thank you for this beautiful talk and for all you do for the inmates. You also reminded me that in adversity, we have the choice to give up and let go or to bring out the best in ourselves, to learn and to surpass ourselves. It's a great lesson to start the week with.
My criticism of inspirational speakers has always been that these are people who put together nice speeches without knowing what people in the real world have to face. But you walked the walk in that prison. My hat is off to you Peter. Two questions: 1. How did you control your fear in that environment ? 2. How do you stay humble after that experience ?
Wow..... and I thought I heard the best Ted Talks before this guy... Boy was I wrong. This one video is more impressive than anything I've seen before on TedX talks that you forget about within minutes. Thank you and it's TIME to GROW and CHANGE.
Just what I needed
"your environment does not define you, it simply gives you the oppurtunity to find yourself."
Well said .

Its all abt who you surround your self with
You were lucky that you got all the motivation from your school. I've come here after life lessons.
"The strongest force in the human personality, is the need to remain consistent with how you define yourself."
I can't even process the dude's mentality. He's so high on the emotional maturity level.
He so isn’t he is just a self promotion freak
People lie, very often people who tout all this postivity stuff, never suffer much in life, tend to have things relatively easy.
@@CraigsOverijse ugh. Sod off.
@@CraigsOverijse did someone trick you in the past? and you're still sad and angry about what happened?
@@NN-bv5bk if his tale is true, would you call that "easy"?
"Freedom is a state of mind, and nobody can take that away from you" - more important than ever these days
"If you're complaining about something that already happened you're wasting your time"
So I shouldn’t worry about anyone else becoming a casualty of the same problematic people? So long as I have survived I can now move on?

Hey how are you doing now?
My eyes popped open when he said change the mindset! Exactly! A close family member of mine needs to watch this! I’m so happy I clicked
Your environment never defines you, it simply gives you the opportunity to define yourself. Wow
You have taught me to accept where I am in life today.
Uh-huh . If there was a light at the end of his dismal tunnel , then there's probably one at the end of mine . I've never done any jail time .
