If you don't roll, you won't ever get anything that you want. But if you do, you have a chance of getting that something. The more you roll, the more that something gets close to you. And what's the worst that could happen? You'll get nothing. Well, if you don't roll, you won't get anything anyway so we're nowhere at a loss here. That's her point.
This video really help me a lot. I try her idea. It WORK! Every-time when I try to do something new. I ask myself a question: if it fail, what is worst result, what would you loss? The answer always come as “ just a little something or nothing will be lost” I try and try... to take those risks. My life changes and feel like more confident doing anything, basic on the good results.
I've searched her here because I was so curioused to know who was this incredible author of one of my favorite book entitled "What I wish I knew when I was 20". It's so beautiful filled with wisdom and advices to take some risks in order to succeed. Muchísimas gracias por el conocimiento 🤍🤍
Thank you for this wonderful talk. I find it so true that the more you work on something the higher chance you get it. So just increase your luck by continuously taking small risks everyday.
Here are what i learnt to catch the Winds of Luck : 1. Always be brave to take some risks in life,it may help u construct a better relationship with people. 2. Walk out of your comfort zone.Don’t Lock ourselves in the comfort zone otherwise it takes a exhausting process to make it. 3. Keep Appreciation in mind. Remember to be grateful to people in circumstances whether he helps you or not .You can write down people whom recently you make contact with and sent appreciation message to them. 4. Excavate the Bad ideas. Even the most horrible ideas can be turned into some brilliant ideas if you think deeply. Some ideas were thought to be ridiculous in the first place , but it proved that they were truly practical as well as genius.
I have read your book and it's amazing (for anyone who is interested, it's called "What I wish I knew when I was 20" by Tina Seelig), but I would like to hear you saying to a person with anxiety to step out of his/her comfort zone and start a conversation with a complete stranger.
2:14 Yes, that’s can be a major social risk. Luckily there are other risks & stretching is possible for everyone no matter where we are or what challenges us 😎
All the points are fascinating and illuminating, but I was must struck by the last point. To look at ideas, no matter how crazy or outright "bad," through the lens of possibility is a refreshing thought. This prevents harsh and haste judgment, and can be really helpful for creativity. Specifically, Dr. Seelig is suggesting that one should make something good out of these seemingly bad ideas, instead of finding something good inside the bad ideas. Finding something good is still saying that the idea overall is bad, but there are parts of it that are good. Making something good out of bad ideas is more positive: it is defying the judgment that the idea is bad by showing how it is actually good. Very cool!
wow i ended up in this video trying to increase my luck because i was kind of stuck in a game but i ended up learning so much from this video, thank you.
Very motivating! Apart from her personal experience/anecdotes, wondering if there any statistical evidence for the enrichment of the 3 predictors? (courage, gratitude, creativity) for successful companies in general
djpailo. the lesson here, just take the chance bro rather than do nothing. That's the only thing that can create the possibility of success probability.
When we look at the law of averages, lower luck or probability can be attained by having more tries. Over time with more tries the successful instances will go up, yes, but the unsuccessful instances will increase at approximately the same rate. And thus the ratio of successful to unsuccessful events should stay relatively stable at a greater number of tries. So, your luck will increase but that includes both bad luck and good luck. But if you merely need a singular success, or if the expected value of success far exceeds the expected ramifications of failure then you are right, the opportunity has a positive total value.
The way we come up with a exceptional idea people in the world love need to share not only good opinions but also bad opinions that everyone doesn’t have good impression at a glance. We may not have a prejudice for whatever we do.
I always do risks with people as I to feel no matter I will learn something off of others , books , music intellectual .. I love it !!! Ideas are just always on going .. a branch to be positive I’ve had my crap in life and so pleased I fork out
Well maybe if it wasn't a publisher, it would have been someone else, who would've made an even bigger impact on her life. Maybe in that sense, she was unlucky. It's all relative, the situation is neither lucky or unlucky, it's what you make of it is what's important.
"Lucky she was seated next to a publisher on that flight." As opposed to a million other people that might have turned into a lucky opportunity of some kind by talking to them and being open to trying something, and her groundwork she laid by even having a book idea ready. You missed the point.
Lucky yes, but lucky often times only happens when effort collides with opportunity. Just saying she was lucky feels like you take away from her effort. And that is the point here, imo.
Two years ago I watched this became motivational and did something I would normally don’t and my life path changed dramatically. The thing is Idk it changed for better or worse :)
I really hope what people take away from this isn't that out of the two main components of 'success' that are luck/chance and hard work, that chance plays the minor role because people can just make their own luck. You need hard work, willingness to take calculated risks and chance to be on your side to beat the odds, but chance still plays the larger role. Very few people will ever contribute more to their own success in life than all the random elements of their existence do.
For those who said that what she means of getting out from comfort zone is by all about connection, I believe its way beyond that, cuz the scary zone can be anything like "try to learn new things", "proactively dare to stand out", or even just "join an organization". But in the end, there will be infinite possibilities on what that courage will take you. Who knows if you dare enough to sing in public for the first time, you'll open up the path as a famous singer ;)
Great talk! now, I understood everything happened into my life! And now, I took the risk of commenting on this video to say Thank you for this wonderful talk.
Ms Tina my problem is this project goes way beyond my ability and lack of expertise so i am forced to turn my attention to multi-million dollar corporations or anyone possibly with an appetite for wealth acquisition.I really enjoyed your take on sailing .
Risk works in all aspects of life! Making new friends, meeting you future relationship, networking. It's crazy! I need to the risk to go review noodles in Australia, inside restaurants instead of just doing instant ramen reviews!
Hi Tina ,it was a great experience that u shared with us ,yes I also took risk many times but failed ,but this project that I m handling now will give my idea a great kick.thanks ted talk,fr india
LCK. I am a firm believer of " One thing leads to another" many good things come out of it; it is basically nothing but allowing yourself to be immune to " oh am i going to make a fool of myself" .
Are you serious? Did you even watch this talk? 1) take risks and get out of your comfort zone // 2) show appreciation // 3) change your relationship with ideas... So it's a little more than Just "having a big network". She didn't even mention Network once...
Phillip you are right. I noted down all ideas of this video. But I don't find that you only require big network. Here he teaches us how to simple risk can be a great opportunity. The more we take risk, the more our luck introduce.
I actually fell in love with the sound and feel of the breeze of luck as it blew pass but its extremely pains taking trying to build a (sale sail) at attracting the winds,could i possible provoke a response of you?
Why not take a tiny risk with little downside, such as trying a new food, saying hello to someone, or reading an article about something you don't know anything about... Here is a short article that builds on this talk that might interest you: ecorner.stanford.edu/article/catch-winds-luck/
She should have mentioned the fourth thing: For every person who eventually brings you luck you meet loads of people who are neutral or perhaps even unpleasant. You are not to call this a failure, but an opportunity to learn. Perhaps you improved your ability to overcome shyness or your conversational skills. In the bad cases you might work on polite exit strategies. Her kind of luck takes work...!
Luck is luck, it's that simple, some not so lucky people are currently struggling in a COVID-19 lockdown, while some lucky people have moved state and enjoying the freedoms, we can't all have luck..like I said it's that simple..
1:33 Be willing to take small risks that get you out of your comfort zone
2:30 Different types of risks: intellectual, physical, financial, emotional, social, ethical, political
2:47 Stretch. Take some risk to get out of your comfort zone
5:21 My luck resulted from a series of small risks I took
6:00 Show appreciation to people who help you (acknowledge their help)
8:27 Don't judge your ideas (by labeling them good or bad)
8:38 In the seeds of terrible ideas, sometimes are things remarkable
10:47 Today's best companies started as crazy ideas
Thank you!! Time stamps are helpful 🙏🏽
Not all heroes wear capes 🙌 thank you, kind stranger!
@@cam4994 God bless! Happy living
Analogy for what she explained:
Rolling a dice is chance, but the more you roll, you'll get something good more times (you'll get bad more times too).
Bad analogy. You won't get it more often, you will just get it more times.
If you don't roll, you won't ever get anything that you want. But if you do, you have a chance of getting that something. The more you roll, the more that something gets close to you. And what's the worst that could happen? You'll get nothing. Well, if you don't roll, you won't get anything anyway so we're nowhere at a loss here. That's her point.
This video really help me a lot. I try her idea. It WORK!
Every-time when I try to do something new. I ask myself a question: if it fail, what is worst result, what would you loss? The answer always come as “ just a little something or nothing will be lost”
I try and try... to take those risks. My life changes and feel like more confident doing anything, basic on the good results.
Another creative talk, magnifying the old-but-true saying that "Luck comes to those who are searching for something." :)
The luck resulted from a series of small risks I took! Quite inspiring! Great speech.
A talk that is worthy of attention for people who believe in living a luxurious life without working or struggle. Thanks!
A very fascinating talk which bring new perspective of luck for me. Thanks Tina. Love from Indonesia

This video is about expression: "The luck is in our hands". The speaker is so gorgeous and inspiring person, like exsample of her ideas.
Thank you for this wonderful talk. I find it so true that the more you work on something the higher chance you get it. So just increase your luck by continuously taking small risks everyday.
Beautiful speech with an insightful view about increasing luck
You are one of a kind, Madam Tina! I hope to see and interact with you soon. Thank you for this!
I think your good luck appears when you are surrounded by good people appreciating you

Thank you so much for the great report, invaluable tips!❤❤❤
What a fascinating speech. This really has me thinking and now I want to make a list of my own. Thank you. I wish you the best!
Thanks, Zack!
i really like this speaker..i even read her book what i wish i knew when i was 20..its so inspiring and full with ideas..thanks
Here are what i learnt to catch the Winds of Luck :

I have always been told I am lucky but it's those who don't understand it doesn't come without risk, appreciation and an openness to new ideas.
Love your story, message, and I particularly your analogy of the Wind of Luck and creating a Sail. Beautiful!
Thank you, Laurie

1.
success or failure apparently brought by chance rather than through one's own actions.
"apparently"

If you don’t ask they have already said no!

Quantity first, Quality second
@@geckgeck8616 Thank you for making sense of the law of averages for me.
Nice talk.
Luck and efforts go hand by hand . Sometimes they are so entangled that u can't distinguish them in success or failure.
Always prepare yourself and don’t be fear of rejection🔥🔥🔥
The way we come up with a exceptional idea people in the world love need to share not only good opinions but also bad opinions that everyone doesn’t have good impression at a glance. We may not have a prejudice for whatever we do.
I appreciate this inspiring talk. Thank you.
this should be worth of million views.
it's ms. tina seelig's great personality that really got me more that her talk....but still...an idea worth sharing! thanks ms. seelig!
Thanks for your kind comment.
I always do risks with people as I to feel no matter I will learn something off of others , books , music intellectual .. I love it !!!
Ideas are just always on going .. a branch to be positive
I’ve had my crap in life and so pleased I fork out
Lucky she was seated next to a publisher on that flight.
Maybe I've spoken to every person I've sat next to using public transportation.
Well maybe if it wasn't a publisher, it would have been someone else, who would've made an even bigger impact on her life. Maybe in that sense, she was unlucky. It's all relative, the situation is neither lucky or unlucky, it's what you make of it is what's important.
Maybe if it wasn't a publisher, it would have been a screaming child.

Luck is when preparation meets opportunity.
Me, I just cash mine in at will.
I really hope what people take away from this isn't that out of the two main components of 'success' that are luck/chance and hard work, that chance plays the minor role because people can just make their own luck.
You need hard work, willingness to take calculated risks and chance to be on your side to beat the odds, but chance still plays the larger role. Very few people will ever contribute more to their own success in life than all the random elements of their existence do.
I wish to thank you for this awesome speech, it has been upmost an inspiration.
I have to admit that this lady has inspired me

WOW. This video was so helpful and insightful. I'll definitely be using these tips to hopefully help me succeed in the business I started!
Thanks so much, Kali. Glad you found it useful!
I learnt from this. Thank you very much.
Luck is getting a TED talk based on mumbojumbo!
This is so relatable..thank you so much for sharing your experiences!
Loved the way you talk...and thanks for sharing your observations! Helped a lot:)
Thank you.
Благодарю , прослушала на одном дыхании .

Reminds me of the Derren Brown episode on luck, pretty much the same idea
CONNECTION is the KEY
Barbara Sher
Great video! Thanks!
Can you send me some of those worksheets? I am an educator in an inner city urban school. These kids should do great on Risk quizes and tests!
Here is a link to an article with the Risk-o-Meter. ecorner.stanford.edu/article/catch-winds-luck/
Thank you! I will look into it today.
Благодарю вас ❤❤❤
Send out thank you notes!
So basically, luck = having a big network. But good talk regardless.
Cloudhex Not necessarily. It's also about doing the right thing at the right time.

"Hi."

"How you doing?"
"Good thanks"
"cool."
For once there should be a TED talk about the benefits of risk avoidance . Each type preservation has its upsides and downsides .
I'm gonna take more risk , very interesting!
Бдагодарю Вас!!!
That was an unexpectedly good talk lol
Increase my luck at winning the lottery and I'll be impressed.
OÄKTA DOPBOK buy more tickets
Just by one ticket. Buying more than one doesn't increase your chance as much as buying just one instead of zero ;)
Good one!
great speaker
It is amazing channel
But most of the time when I try to take a risk it leads me into failure......
I guess I'm not that lucky to make my own luck.
She should have mentioned the fourth thing: For every person who eventually brings you luck you meet loads of people who are neutral or perhaps even unpleasant. You are not to call this a failure, but an opportunity to learn. Perhaps you improved your ability to overcome shyness or your conversational skills. In the bad cases you might work on polite exit strategies. Her kind of luck takes work...!
Risk is risky for a reason . Take too little and you stagnate but take too much and you may lose your life savings or a limb or two ....
She is so right!
Amazing, brilliant speaking! It turned over my mind. Thank you so much
Thank you for that. I’m showing appreciation for more subscribers. :)
