    some of you complaining about the small bugs of her in the presentation ( smacking the mouth, little nervous appearance ). I felt like thsese small (mistakes) of her let her appear more human and so its easier to make her advices to your own goals ( not like a perfect and inimitable person ). The speech wasn't a competition. The purpose was to send a mesage and give you advice of scientific proven and subconscious methods to make your life much more easier and yourself more happy. It was amazing, my respect

      Sami Peterson not given the subject matter, she is herself failing in the area she is supposed to be an expert on... it really detracts from her. To talk about the importance of body language etc which presenting yourself with poor body language is really poor.

      Sami Karaköse It would have been cool if she had started the speech stuttering and sniffing but over the course of the video she became more dominant and convincing. But it's whatever, what she says isn't any less true because of the way she says it.

      I am sorry: critics are right. Her body language is the worst ever.
      So I guess that it does NOT matter after all, unless you a celebrity.
      False body language look absurd

      @D Murray and yet she is standing there giving one of most viewed speeches, not you:-) This is what happens when you have a courage to do:-) even though it was not flawless, it is one of the speeches that have most influenced my life. Thanks Amy Cuddy for being a badass!

    “Having your identity taken from you...there’s nothing that leaves you feeling more powerless than that.” Omg she gets it! I think I saw this video before, but it really resonates with me now, and describes exactly what I was going through. Thank you for demonstrating how to get our individual power back.

    I had to watch this for my class but I wasn't expecting to start getting emotional. I genuinely resonated with that little anecdote especially since I plan to go to graduate school. I feel like I really needed to hear that at this time wow.

    "She is teaching people to fake who they are" if you say it like that then yes, I understand this: She is teaching people to fake who they want(or need) to be until the become it.

    Ms. Cuddy, good day. I'm grateful I saw your talk back in 2013, it gave me immense inspiration. I didn't know what to do back then. I had TBI a year prior, and I was contemplating if I should continue my studies or not, and, thanks to you, I'm now on my way to getting my license as a physician.

    Fantastic talk! She had great support for her message, from the opinions of test subjects to actual hard scientific measurements of hormones to personal successes. Great message, and what it comes down to, in my opinion, is that you can truly change yourself, just through willpower, to become the person you've always wanted to be!

  • @mandym1693
    @mandym1693 5 років тому +1

    Her story about her student never participated in class and said she doesn't belong resonates with me. I am always the quietest person in any class and even up to now at my current job where I am currently in a small in-class training, I never really speak or participate. So when I heard her and her student's story, it relates to me now and I feel I don't belong. But I want to take her message and fake it until I become it! I hope one day I become it and become more confident! This was a great ted talk!

    Important Clippings:
    - What is your body, communicating to somebody else and what is their body communicating to you?
    - We ourselves are also influenced by our nonverbal
    - Nonverbal expressions of power and dominance
    - We compliment to others non verbals. We don't tend to mirror them; we tend to do the opposite
    - Pretend to be powerful, you are more likely to feel powerful
    - Powerful people tend to be more assertive and more confident, more optimistic
    - They take more risks. Powerful and effective leaders also have high testosterone and low cortisol.
    - Tiny tweaks and leads to big changes
    - Try power posing and share this knowledge

    If it does not work for you...shut your face. Do not mock. If it works for you, (as it does for me), enjoy, and practice... Essentially this is for the little people, or those who have been brought up "not to be pushy", in other words, "shut up, you're not good enough". Well, this tells me that I am good enough, and to get me going, "Just fake it until I make it". Wonderful. I feel better already.

    Great talk and message by Amy! The takeaway here is huge, you can definitely encourage your brain to behave a certain way by reinforcing it in various ways (body language, positive thoughts, etc). Posture is something to always be wary about since you can sometimes unintentionally give off the wrong vibe.

    You can't confuse accepting challenges with making believe that you know something.
    It is taking the step that makes the difference of action vs. not acting. When you take the action, you are making the change needed.
    You can win everything and still be wrong about everything so becoming something does not necessarily change anything.

    A great speech that touches on a powerfull truth. Just as confidence level affects posture, so posture affects confidence level. I teach performance skills. Over the years I have advised many less conffident students to adopt the pose they imagine they would adopt if they were more confident. It works every time.

  • @JimmyGunawan

    Indeed people judge based on the posture. If I happen to be more confident than others, I will help the non-confident. But there are people who judge and take advantage of you being powerless.
    There are also neutral people. Not always powerful or powerless. Higher or lower.
    These days, equality is important.
    Powerful people can come to as arrogant, asshole, etc. This shown as well with race, religion, nationality.
    This kind of social thing is something interesting to study.
