TedX Live, Den Haag was mindblowing!

Some amazing speakers took the stage today at TedX. The event was packed and the room was buzzing – we spent the WHOLE day (a marathon of stimulating talks) listening to special guests in the Igluu workspace in the centre of the Hague. From time to time we also linked up live to the Ted Talks in Edinburgh.

I met some really interesting people too – the networking was different, as there were people invited from all walks of life, not just the usual faces from the Hague business community.

Here is a link to an impression video of the day’s event – it says it all much better than I ever could – look out for me in a purple dress in the fourth row from the front…

 

If you get the chance, go along to a future event somewhere in the world – if you can’t spare the time or the plane fare, surf around in You Tube for Ted Talks from some of the greatest minds of our age.  It’s my favourite waste of time.

The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It's as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today. The true entrepreneur is a doer, not a dreamer.

Sometimes there is a greater lack of communication in facile talking than in silence.
