At TEDxUW 2011, economics professor Larry Smith gave a memorable talk titled, “Why you will fail to have a great career.” The hilarious talk takes aim at people and the incredible excuses they dream up for not pursuing their passions, from “It’s too hard” to “But I value human relationships more than my work.” His talk was a call for people to get out of their own way and at least try.
This isn't about gossip, gadgets or fashion. It is about getting the most out of what you want in this life. We have an unknown amount of years to be able to have fun and make the most of our lives. I found it motivating and I hope you do too.
