Overcoming barriers to be successful in life! | Carolina Liu | TEDxYouth@CISB


hi hello I’m Karen I knew from the ninth
grade yeah it’s been right now first of
all I would just like to say I mean I’ve
never imagined myself to be standing on
a stage doing a TED talk I have never
been one to do lots of public speaking
so this is the first time so one time
thought was a digit came up to me and
asked do you want to be the TED talk and
I was kind of like what I’ll think about
it
so I did I went home I thought about it
I talked to my mom about it and she was
kind of surprised at first but then she
said why not it’s an opportunity take it
if you take the chance you might like it
if you might not you might proceed you
might not but you will have been able to
say you tried and that is always the
most important thing because you will
need every opportunity
don’t take it seems I think some leave
like this but I wanna be a live action
today’s topic is overcoming barriers
barriers which is really broad word to
be internal to the external that you
little to be figurative with it all
serve a single purpose and then it can
make your life more difficult however it
is more rewarding once you’ve conquered
it so today I’m only going to be
focusing on the end
because I believe most of us faces at
some point and how to overcome them most
of any of you wondering what I mean but
internal barriers I’m talking about over
TV lack of confidence guilt self-doubt
basically not believing in yourself
sometimes you think you forward other
people feeds you that tears you down
inside but most of the time I believe
it’s your own imagination taking a small
thing that happened to the next level
the words other people claim may be the
foundation of a wall but you’re all that
magic nation builders hot and it’s hot
the Volvo higher and higher sooner
muscle loss to hide time over and reject
and I saw an English teacher always said
without imagination say no fear I
believe in tomorrow skill to overcoming
these barriers and achieving success in
southern competence which means to be
defined by the ability to believe in
yourself to accomplish any path no
matter the are the difficulty for mercy
such confidence really is a skill that
you need in everyday life needed to
complete anything and everything your
performance in school in tests on a game
in the sport or even just a casual
conversation is directly affected by
your self confidence and confidence it’s
not something that everyone was
worthless and it’s not something
everyone has at the moment because maybe
support blocking do you see something
that happened there countless factors on
why someone does
properly so my other day it’s a skill
and it can be developed like any other
skill so today I’m going to introduce
the three P’s that I concluded to help
you gain self-confidence they wear
practice positions and headlocks
the first strategy is practice I’m
telling you that you cannot be confident
something that’s new to you it’s even if
you’re a magician
it’s still not possible that you can be
comfortable and confident something on
the first track must Malcolm Gladwell
the author of the book outliers the
story of success discusses the $10,000
goal which is in his word the key to
achieving world-class expertise the
10,000 hour rule is a pattern he
discovered in professionals in experts
in succeeding people successful people
that they need to put in contact
10,000 hours of effort for 10,000 hours
of practice or 10,000 tries to be able
to achieve world-class expertise let’s
take this soccer bowling story as an
example there was once a soccer goalie
of recruited for his body conditions he
has hiked yet the size and strength in
an entire body and especially in tactics
but every time a ball came in him to put
out to the rack that’s not what he’s
supposed to do he’s most objective but
he couldn’t do that even with his really
strong past so his coach told him up
simple solution that was to kick the
ball against the wall 350 times a day
every single day for eight months after
the eight months between his hand with
house he lost complete moisture in his
head but now he’s playing in Europe so
wasn’t magic it wasn’t a formula it
wasn’t mad
wooden science photos on practice also
some people might say is natural
mortality in this case it’s definitely
not matter for talent sometimes bringing
to about 50% but putting in all that
effort and all that time and energy and
practicing the breathing here and if
this came Jesus goalie what’s the ball
comes in him now shouldn’t you have to
think about you know just listen to what
anybody tells him to do and that is the
magic of practicing the technicality is
persistence persistence is important
because you you should never accept a
one-time failure a 100 jetan I decide to
stop to give up to walk away because
that is not how you gonna be to the sent
some sense
let’s take tape Himalayan example many
have you may or may not know this but
she was rejected by 12 or 13 in
publishers before she was for her first
Harry Potter book was accepted and it
was only for like 1,500 pounds at a time
no one knew it was going to be a world
best-selling series but JK Rowling after
12 5-12 rejections she was still unable
to stay confident a belief in yourself
and her book to be able to resist and go
find the next publisher F dr. Seuss I’m
pretty sure all of us know dr. Seuss
because he probably though one of the
best children’s book author he’s not a
legend but he was also rejected 27 times
before his first book was allowed to be
published how many of us here are able
to say that they can still stay
confident after twelve or twenty seven
rejections I know for a fact that I will
be able to after one or two
thinking doing it right the right
decision after four or five I think
about and definitely want to give up
December 8 I’m going to burn it destroy
it tuck it into the deepest part of my
closet and you never see it again but
that’s not the verge of success and
that’s not the way that they could have
gotten to their success so if they can
do it you’re not you do if you haven’t
received rejection or failure see
anything a sign or an opportunity to
keep on time to create the third
strategy is at cops yep I know it sounds
cheesy but they’re so important as you
could with pep talk you can take control
of your own life in your own future
because you’re the best person that
being you and no one can tell you
otherwise there are some specific things
you can do it all in your life to help
you give little tip not maybe slip
little notes into your backpack or your
locker on days you know you need that
confidence like exam days or 15 things
like activist or Isaac I’d say that
self-confidence will lead to success
because I’ll use my cell phone example
just a few weeks ago I was in Korea
playing a soccer game and I was put on
the stunning set and it was quite a
nerve-wracking for me because since I
didn’t get a lot of packets this season
I was usually a sub so I never really
started the game and it was quite
nerve-wracking because mastani said it’s
the best seven players and I’m just
standing there like they’re so good and
then the more I think about that the
more the best I’m confident the more my
confident drops and with my confident
drop my confidence drops my success also
drops so during halftime I thought to
myself that’s hope the best I can do
that’s all my limit so in the second
half I kept thinking to myself
this position so well the times I cheat
the ball far away so that it can it will
be easier for our goalie and then I’ve
really built up my confidence and then
with my confidence
naturally my success also my darling
other way you could do to pep up is
maybe like full letter to yourself if
you keep on adding on to it over time
about accomplished accomplishment
achievement compliments you’ve gotten
that show has a special and unique and
important you are it’s four days I
didn’t know you need that it’s special
boost of confidence pulled it out we did
you’ll feel so much better overall I
think sometimes the biggest barrier in
your life I just be yourself but what’s
a little training you can be really
strong it’s all about that last talk
about the last push you give yourself
before you want to give up or the last
hour you train the week before a big
competition or let’s take the last
chapter your you study the day before a
big exam or that final visit each other
to go take that chance
and look for the one person that will
say yes even has to be resented many
times what I’m saying is the three P’s
that I’ve mentioned earlier can
in your own life I’m not comment on your
success I’m not promising you anything
but what I can promise you is that if
you take a chance there will be a
glimmer of possibility of success for
you but I can also promise you but if
you don’t take the chance
you missed you missed every chance
and once you missed some opportunities
they may never come back finally
approach a message passion sees no
barriers is expensive jump hurdles
leaves a penetrates walls to get to
information of how passion was going to
be loved but then I changed it so then
my speech would have the wrong idea
anyways this speak this quote really
expresses what I mean by the leave being
able to help you at last
I want to repeat that confidence is
literally everything you have to believe
in yourself and if you don’t no one else well thank you
