The Power of Ideas

I'm coming away from Chris Anderson's TED Talks: The official TED Guide to Public Speaking inspired to use my voice to help shape the world. Here are some of its reminders of the power that we each possess:

"Life is fleeting. Ideas, inspiration, and love endure." (v)

"If I'm beaming, I will make you smile inside. Just a bit. But a meaningful bit." (49)

"When you laugh with someone, you both feel you're on the same side. It's a fantastic tool for building a connection." (53)

"Start a fire that will spread new wisdom far and wide." (248)
