  • What is the Hero's Journey? And Why Should You Care?
    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    “The journey of the hero is about the courage to seek the depths; the image of creative rebirth; the eternal cycle of change within us; the uncanny discovery that the seeker is the mystery which the seeker seeks to know." ~ Joseph Campbell 💪🏻🚀

    There is a major flaw in this lecture. Campbell said that the hero becomes a hero by making a great sacrifice for others. The hero does not get rich. The hero takes the hit so that others may benefit.
    Steve Jobs is not a hero. He got rich. He sacrificed nothing. Soloman missed the main point of "The Hero With A Thousand Faces" ( Campbells book ).

    • @walka112

      i think you misunderstood my friend Steve jobs went through a lot to get where what apple is now. Where you think others benefit by money it doesn't necessarily have to mean money wealth and riches, you benefit with convenience, simplicity and helpful tools introduced into our lives which Steve jobs company apple provides for us, he had many failures and all he did was that he got back up and keep going till he got what he wanted then which created jobs enriched the economy and made our lives easier and got the world on the right track to make things happen. people use his technologies to cure diseases or find a cure to cancer design new things create businesses and to make the world a better place so next time you have an opinion get some evidence to back up your theory thank you.

    Secondly, what on earth makes you think it's helpful to thump a piece of equipment which is designed to take a small sound and make it a big one? Distraction no 2, disrespect for the audio professionals and your audience.
