La vida como el ajedrez | Ivette Márquez | TEDxYouth@Posadas


[Music]
i
well as you have already heard I am
player and instructor of young children
Of chess
chess to me changed my life is a
sport little known or little game
valued but nevertheless changes worlds
changes ideas opens our mind the
vocabulary helps us to interact with
totally incredible people
to know different places to live
new experiences
well for what I wanted to start was that
if you train many children each
child is a galaxy apart so it’s a
different treatment with each one
they are super tender creatures
they go from 6 to 12 13 years old, treading on me
age
and I wanted to tell you the three basic things
fundamentals that I always have
present at teach
as you can see there that’s the famous
chess board what brings me
crazy in Love
they see a lot of little drawings to which
we call pieces
each piece has an initial value or
relative
for example those who are here in
corner they are called towers go in 5 the
following are horses and
bishops worth 3 the next lady
that is worth 9 and the king who is the most
important of the whole board
the infinite flock the whole game all
the game
the four squares the four squares
they see there are called centers like the
same name says it are well located
in the center of board as well as
we here in our red dot almost
in the center of the stage
well the following
is that I’m going to give a talk about how
play chess well from my point of
view
the xerez helped me compare parts of
my life stages dreams changes or some
specific moment
if you wonder why I am
explaining all this is so that
understand what you want to get
the three things that always teach
first is that they are in all the pieces
and they play well particularly I compare
the pieces with my companions with my
friends
with my family with acquaintances or people
that we are meeting on the way
who support us give us their love their
attention and make us better people
the next thing is that they always take care of or
they fight for the center to what I
I mean it is always to stop with a
objective in clear
always have good arguments not
to be afraid of it matters what or what
Present in front of me I know I’m going to go
because if I came already I’m here we go to
give everything
the last
slogan so to speak that gives my
guys is the protection of the king if he
they agreed I said it was the most
important of the whole board
personally I represent the king with the
ideals dreams
with true me so true
I feel what I really fight for
target might not be very
clear but I know I want that I know that
I want something
all this began in the wake of my first
tournament with a teacher told me you have
to do an activity that expands you
the mind was 8 years old
how will they notice
the first time I was going to compete
they called me the pink dot
also now it’s still pink dot
I have pink stockings are pretty was the
only girl the only woman so
say it for 8 years I had to
face males only males of
all ages much bigger
that I with more experience more security
and I good a diet like that chiquitita
little pink dot with chocolates in the hand and
all the fears above do not imagine
the amount of negative words fears
the terror of having to take a step that
they crossed my head that day and I said
not if something taught me the game was that if
I want something I have to get it this way
that if I’m already here I’m going to sit in
my case I will sit trenton board and
I will give everything same no matter who
be the person of that I feel in
front that baron in this case
I trust myself I trust who
I am in that people support me
I know what my goal is to give the best of
me in every situation lose fear
first of all
let’s play if we’re here
from there all my life began
there are still challenges
there are still things that throw me
back as people also that I
drive
Try always refers to myself
always to what I want and my talk
short and my message a little extensive as well
let’s start with that if you
remember
were three goals are three messages what
that I want to give the first one associating with
the king
be faithful to yourselves always
trust what you want in what
who they yearn in their goal to where they want
to arrive does not matter who I am
present in front of me I do not have to change
Who am I? I have to prove that I am
ivette go wherever I went I stopped in front
Who stops me how many also in
this case
the center
let’s go to another goal it seems sure of
themselves remember why they came
and why did they come what is their motive?
It seems very firm at the center like this
us in the center of the red dot
you each in a particular case
stand firm no matter how much fear
have remember that there will always be
someone listening to someone who is going to
change the idea
you are the ones that are why
they feel and for what they demonstrate there is no
second chance for first
impressions
the last thing and I think that
not by devaluing either for
making it more important was the development
of all the pieces
as I said the pieces are the friends
are the family are the people
known the people who are going
finding in the way that help us
they are guided these people are
and will be important today in the always
because maybe they do not have the same
objective that we are not all going to
ask to stop here and talk but if you
they drive for you you feel that you fall
well in friends and have ages not
there is a problem trying it many times
you want not to lose faith
be yourselves take care of the
People who want most during all
moment and always go with a goal
Clearly
