the only person you’re destined to
become is the person you decide to be
why am I not able to get the result that
I deserve show of hands if you’ve ever
asked this question like me at least
once to yourselves I’m pretty sure from
all the talks that we had today there’s
one question that drives all of us how
can we have 100% in our business career
relationships finance health and it
disturbs all of us despite having the
skills the socio-economic background the
tools innovation and technology many of
us are on this journey where the results
that we require are not achieved there’s
something missing a triggering factor a
question an unbreakable code but then
how is it that some are able to break
that code and achieve world-class
results I believe the answer to this
question lies in one of the greatest
battles fought in the history of mankind
World War two maybe for the first time
machines technology under the
destructive thinking of one man was
creating chaos lies were getting lost
machine were on the rise it was no
longer machine versus man but machine
wit man
military strategy messages were shared
by the Germans to their naval bases
using now radio communication and it was
perhaps the first time that data
encryption or security was implemented
while transmitting radio communication
and this disturbed the Allies because
they were not able to find out what was
exactly being transmitted the Germans
rightly called
this code the Enigma code enigma
mysterious difficult to understand like
the different problems we have in life
like what your wife is sometimes telling
you the reason why the Germans believed
why the Enigma code was unbreakable was
because of the machine that they used to
generate this encrypted cold code called
the Enigma machine now let me break this
down the Enigma machine could be set in
15 million million million combinations
and the great thing that the Germans
would do was that they would change the
setting every single day so there was no
point or no opportunity for a human
being to sort or to find out what the
code meant let me put that in man-hours
if ten men worked on breaking the code a
minute a day 24 hours in a day 365 days
a year it would take them 20 million
years to break the code so the task was
there and that’s why it was considered
unbreakable
a little bit detail on the enigma
machine itself as you can see it’s a
combination of mechanical and electrical
subsystems that very electronic circuits
electrical circuits so I know that
sounds a little gibberish for the non
engineers in the room if I was to press
the letter W it would go in to the
enigma machine the rotors would do their
thing and out comes a different letter I
press the same letter again the rotors
are set in a different order and out
comes another letter so there was no way
to understand what the machines did
unless you had your own enigma machine
or you knew the settings that the
Germans were working on the British put
together a team of mathematicians and
cryptographers under the leadership of
Alan Turing to break this code and now
here lies the secret to breaking your
enigma code Alan Turing decided that a
problem created by a machine cannot be
solved by a man a machine is required to
solve the problems created by a machine
luckily for him he decided not to start
from scratch he said if there is someone
working on a model let me just take it
and improve it the Polish mathematicians
were working on a model which they were
able to send to the British before they
were attacked by the Germans Alan Turing
just managed to improve the design and
come up with an electromechanical device
that automated the settings of the
Enigma code because every day that they
would delay would mean lives lost he
took them just five and a half months to
build from scratch to this machine
scientists say sorry historians say that
finding the cure of the answer to the
Enigma machine or discover or inventing
this machine helped to reduce the world
war 2 by 2 years saving 14 million lives
the machine went on to be used by many
researchers and inventors called the
Turing machine today we call them
computers smart
phones I’m sure in this 15 minute speech
you have looked at that smartphone at
least two times it’s become such a
irreplaceable part of our life my son
asked me the other day dad are we poor I
said no what gave you that impression he
said then why don’t I have an iPad
that’s the kind of world we are living
in and it would have not been possible
if not for the genius of this one man
perhaps one of the most underappreciated
innovators in our time who’s known as
the father of computer science and
artificial intelligence so ladies and
gentlemen the mystery ends now how do
you apply a story from the world war
into your own life to crack the Enigma
code start with a reference model you
know we all are in a hurry to be
innovative to be different to and you
know at what at the end what happens is
we frustrate ourselves because man is a
legacy machine there was a time where
all we needed to worry about was hunting
bringing food on the table but today we
are worried about relevance the impact
we create to society so it’s easier to
start with a working model and bring in
your own flavor saving you hours and
days of effort you cannot do it alone if
man works with man we will be able to
solve many of the challenges that we
face and I guess this room itself has
enough of knowledge enough of data to
solve many of the problems you know
including sustainable cities smart
cities a better education system you
know how to bring the the connection
between arts and engineering so many
thoughts shared here today such a
powerful platform seek not perfection
only look for improvement you know we
are we generally you know this is a
question I’ll ask
practice makes wrong programming because
if practice made perfect we would all be
perfect and iPhone wouldn’t come up with
an X model so strive for improvement not
for perfection human communication for
as long as I remember it’s been my dream
to stand here on a red dot like this
sharing my thoughts on humanity thoughts
that have inspired me making you laugh
we think and maybe in some way
influencing your behavior but I thought
it was just something that is not
possible for me you know I looked at the
great people and I said wow I wish I
could do that someday but a chance
meeting with an individual changed my
life because I saw what he was doing at
the level that I wanted to do and all I
had to do is reach out shake in his
hands and say will you teach me and he
said why not just follow what I tell you
and we’ll get there he created an
awareness in me regarding vision goals
dreams he took me to his room one day of
course with good intentions and there I
found the design for my to crack my
Enigma code he called it a vision chart
he said put on this everything that you
ever want in life and find people who
are doing it at that level at which you
want to do associate with them hey even
if you have to
it’s taken 20 years for me from the day
I cried the first time I had a public
speaking opportunity to be standing here
on a TEDx platform something that I put
on my vision chart in 2015 and it would
have not been possible if I try to do it
all on my own it is because of
individuals who had already done it were
able to guide me to reach there quicker
ladies and gentlemen even if you forget
everything that I told you today I want
you to remember this that if breaking a
code ended a war then why fight the
battles inside if the results that you
seek are out there then why think about
problems then hide if people have
achieved the results the task
why don’t you just reach out and ask
machines may have cost may have caused
disruption but man will always conquer
all with sheer determination seek not
for perfection
it’s a pursuit not a destination embrace
the journey and see your transformation
whatever you seek in life is out there
just go out and get it the only person
that you decide to be is the person that
you can be with mentorship guidance and
the guidance from above the enigma code
of your life whatever it may be I’m sure
you will crack it thank you
[Applause]
