When I look up things like this I feel like I could always do better. This is my first step to becoming a new person for the new year and this time I actually mean it.
Everyday wake up to become a more kind, more productive, more of a human. This is the first time in my life, I feel peace. Why? Self care. Self love. Self realization. Always keep growing. And let NO PERSON have power over your mental, physical and mental state ever.
My girlfriend of two years broke up with me. Just weeks before we were talking about marriage and starting a family in the next few years. Things went poorly at the very end. It made me realize that I need to change. I let viruses enter my life and our relationship. I'm working hard now. Physically and mentally. I quit smoking, I'm working out, I'm not being the same cynical man that I was a few weeks ago. It's a process but I'm getting there. This was very inspiring and insightful to know that change is always an option and it is necessary. Thank you.
There is only ONE way to become the best version of yourself. Each and every tiny second of your day choose to do something positive that leads you to become the best version of yourself. Each and every millisecond we are presented with choices, choose the best one.
Thanks for making us understand the need for struggle in life and to have faith in that struggle to come out as winner and becoming version 2.0 of ourselves. That point could not be described with any better analogy. Even though we all know that hard work and struggle essential for our improvement still we choose comfort and rest and become outdated or fall back in life. And that brings anxiety depression. This kind of lectures really needed sometimes to remind us why we should choose to accept challenge every time we face it and not to choose fear and comfort. Thank you so much.
-workout 10 mins a day -read half hour a day -use natural products -HYGENE -draw or sketch a day -lemon and lime water or sparkling -eat healthy!! -messy bun and good clothing -wear earrings
Yes, I'd add one more to the list. Donate, volunteer, or do something to contribute to society. Every March, I make most of my donations (and max out the company match). And then I do 2 to 4 volunteer events per year.
@@daeganmoorse9787 what work for you doesn’t work for everyone else & vice versa. We’re all individuals which means we are different & if if that makes sense to her to become a better person then who are you to tell her otherwise.
I'm 33 and am still trying to learn how to detach my heart from head (in a healthy way) when things don't work out, or when things are flowing well in that moment. It really helps keep a steady spine if you are able to master keeping neutral in stressful situations.
I was born on march 5th 2007 and I am right now 14 yrs old . through out my life there is nothing great I have ever achieved that is if bad things are not counted . I am always a short tempered boy who gets angry all the time at others especially to my parents who support me all the time , All my life I have always troubled my grandmom been a bad grandson to her and never really cared how he felt . I just want to say this to you guys growing up be kind to those who support you make wise decisions and work hard . Please avoid yourselves from becoming like a person like me . My family deserves someone much more than me . Amen . I have always wanted material throughout my life and didnt realise what is really important . Parents its ok what your young ones want to achieve be it sports or studies , Please be supportive to your children Whatever be it their dream and irrespective of the circumstance support them to grow in that dream and to become the best versions of themselves . I just want to say sorry to my familly for the pain I have caused to them . Amen !
This is the best TedTalk I have ever watched. This really powerfully resonated with me and especially for right now in this time. Thank you for your insightful and passionate talk, and thank you for sharing with the world.
I love how this talk uses very modern ideas of technology in order to help us connect to what he's saying. It's so strange that things that we see in our daily lives can really be used as metaphors for bettering your life.
Traumatized for last 6 months, Been listening to a few talks likes these in last few days ! Lol thought something might change. But these guys talk is really a good one ! It helped!
I think this video is going to transform my life, starting this second. Thank you Anthony for this wonderful and awe eye opening demonstration on how to become our Best Versions!
Life is beautiful and this video gave me a great reminder, I will abide by this advice l, I will change and a year from now I will be on top of the world. One day at a time can change your whole life.
So I guess there is no such thing as best self. No wonder its so hard to be your 'best self'... It takes step after step, to evolve to our highest potential.. not just a switch, where you engage best self mode. Great insight this video gives
I always try my best to change and I always fall back. I learn so much and sometimes it's very fatiguing because you learn how much it will take to get to where you want to be but are then back to square one. Basically though if I can go to sleep early and wake up early. Exercise just a bit, pushups or something, and eat right. For sure I know I'll have the energy to enjoy work and be content with the daily grind. Dopamine detoxxs are really powerful as well. I'll do that from time to time and see great results. But staying consistent and not falling back to old habits it's the hard part. Especially when the benefits kick in and you feel like you can afford to stay up a bit. Or I'll work some more tomorrow, let me just take a break and a mini vacation. I don't know, however small a Dream is I'm sure it's worth getting back up for it an infinite ♾️ amount of times either here or in the next life.
My girlfriend and I just decided to put our relationship to an end. I just want to transform myself into the best version of myself. I want the same for her. Part of me wants to give up and lay in bed forever, and another part of me is viewing this as an opportunity to do all the things I didn’t have time for. I guess I’m looking for answers with no real question... but I will persist and move forward because I know that’s what she’d want for me and that’s what I want for her as well.
Excellent work Anthony! You can continue the analogy of the Update. As for software they're to close off previously unseen vulnerabilities to the system, or improving the usability of performance. The further you go with the metaphor the more useful it is!
Amazing idea to compare the software updates with our constant need to be better than ourselves.. another example, let's see "The last dance" .. Michael Jordan, being a super athlete, it took for him seven years to get the first NBA championship for the Bulls...
Mind blowing speech, and I want to use the B word (Bu*) because I can enter a state of mind where me I as a body is mentally and physically numb where I don't know how to engage with anything. A phenomenal talk
Why I'm watching this clip ?.. Well I'm lost in nowhere.. need something to hold my hands and lead back@! This guy is inspiring me .. Don't know whether I will apply this in my life or I will be succeed- but one thing sure , this guy here is amazing @! :') will try my best buddy and don't stop inspiring other billions
I am so inspired by your positive feedback and honesty, Sagar! I will continue to upgrade my life to support your own upgrades. To your continued upgrade and evolution, live it up with power, purpose and passion!
The narrative of deception we tell ourselves day by day is the path to a state of emptiness and lack of self-fulfilment. Sometimes we take a decision that conveyed by a false sense of stability conceals our a fear to responsability that steadiliy leads us to self loath. In view of this fact, taking the rejection to a better life for granted becomes a habit enhanced by our dependance on willingness as we wait for the perfect moment to manifest itself in the midst of our apparent meaningless life, thus our patience wears thin overtime and we plunge ourselves into our own dream there when we least expect it we find ourselves in a nightmare from which we are not able to wake up.
I love how passionate you are! you are speaking your truth, from your heart! My favourite part was the faith, fire and flexibility ( the palm tree metaphor- about being bendy , going with it but keeping ourselves rooted and grounded) this is so important as it is easy to lose ourselves from time to time. Keep up the great work Anthony! Look forward to seeing more from you!
Thank you TED and Anthony Cheam for this riveting talk. I believe I searched 'become best version of myself' and this search result came up. Faith Fire and Flexibility. I especially enjoyed the example about upgrading after life changes and age. We are sometimes nostalgicslly reaching for the past instead of coming to terms with and making the best of today and tomorrow. This was more of motivational talk without any concrete steps but it served its purpose. We have to carve our own path. It starts with a reset and re-evaluation.
Sorry - for nearly 4 yrs have faced everything despite fear - divorce, abandonment, betrayal, financial injustice and more. Didnt let myself become bitter. Done tons of more certifications, post grad work, volunteer work. Sat thru nights sobbing. Loads of self developmemt work. Used to believe in Law of Attraction. Still no returns on what I have done for 4 yrs. Things continue to go wrong. Am giving up.
Hey Angela, I just read your message. I am so sorry for the injustices and sufferings in your life. If you would allow me the honor and privilege to serve you, I would really like the opportunity to get to know you and help with your situation. I know I could provide some valuable insight. No strings attached at all. I am not selling you anything. I am only here to help heal those who are struggling and suffering. I sense you have reached your tipping point.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." Hebrews 11:1 NKJV "Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things we long for. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen." TPT
I thought this was powerful and on purpose. It was clean simple clear, easy to understand with great metaphors. The only thing I would change is the very last sentence. I think he should have started with let go of fear, a cold heart and rigidity and then built the momentum by ending with embrace faith, fire and flexibility. Then he probably would have gotten the standing ovation he deserved.
When I look up things like this I feel like I could always do better. This is my first step to becoming a new person for the new year and this time I actually mean it.
You alreasy failed
Go go go!!
You got this
J HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPE
Best of luck hope it’s going well 🥺
Success is not about money, it's about becoming the best version of yourself.
👏👏👏
From a 17 year old, Thank you so much. Every second of the day i am getting myself better
I'm 17 too! Who knew that there were other 17 yr olds out there
Ay same good luck your journey bud
Me too Maxwell Martin😊
im only 14
I'm 14
Everyday wake up to become a more kind, more productive, more of a human. This is the first time in my life, I feel peace.
Why? Self care. Self love. Self realization. Always keep growing. And let NO PERSON have power over your mental, physical and mental state ever.
Damn I needed that
Exactly what I’ve been doing lately. Wish you the best
No don't give Me hope
@@Brcyx193 ok then suffer

Research narcissists just in case
Keep movin forward brother ✊🏽💪🏾
Drew, I am very proud of you. Keep going. This is a way of life and it’s for the long haul.
Thanks for sharing I needed this
There is only ONE way to become the best version of yourself. Each and every tiny second of your day choose to do something positive that leads you to become the best version of yourself. Each and every millisecond we are presented with choices, choose the best one.
Um actually your wrong about one thing 🤓 the human can't perfectly react too fast in fact we might brun in the process of moving in such speed
True!
True. This is my secret. I live life by the hour. I drink water every hour, read at least 10 minutes every hour etc...
The support from this talk is outstanding! It's so great to see everyone taking control of their evolution!
Loved it! The comparison to software upgrades and your life upgrade... superb! I found the video from Grow Successful. Thank you Anthony! :)
itss greatt
it is the best way someone explained it to me and many of the people in the comments of how to become better
Isn’t you in the video?
I needed to hear this, thank you very much!
Some people have the genuine talking style to give you goosebumps, this man has.

this is one of the most inspiring speeches that i´ve ever heard
I am so happy that you enjoy the talk! We are all the commander of our ship as we coast through life! Let's decide to live it up with passion!
that moment when everything around you become hopeless
you will find such people who were created to inspire you !!
-workout 10 mins a day
-read half hour a day
-use natural products

Yes, I'd add one more to the list. Donate, volunteer, or do something to contribute to society. Every March, I make most of my donations (and max out the company match). And then I do 2 to 4 volunteer events per year.
I am a man
If that's what you think it takes to be the best version of yourself, you're going no where. That's how to be clean and healthy.
Add meditation to that

at the 12:00 a unkown feeling has started to move inside my heart i absoluetly love the passion and the way the subject is explained
One of the most important things for self improvement is regular meditation.... keep going no matter how hard it might seem... 😇😇

This is what I needed right now, have a new version of myself. Great talk.
Great Analogies, nice stuff. Thanks
Great inspirational,empowering talk.
