The Adventure of Supreme Confidence

On April 1st this year I gave a TEDx talk, which you can watch here.

I learnt quite a lot from it, such as:

Be ready for tech failures (see if you can spot what happens at 5:28 and how I react to it).
Rehearsal really, really helps. It means that when things wrong you are better equipped to deal with them.
You do not need immediate feedback for your talk or presentation to be a success.
Performance can remove the need for slides.
Good story-telling goes a long way.
Being in the moment can create a great connection with the audience (see if you can spot what happens at 9:19 – you’ll probably need headphones).

Does my talk educate you? Inspire you to do something? Or is it simply entertainment?

I hope it’s all three.
