    Just know that you just changed my life by telling me all that! It really pushed my confidence to fight for what I believe is right. Thank you so much ❤️

    Going viral is only temporary. The next day, it’d be easy for people to forget about you and why you even went viral in the first place. If you want to contribute meaningfully, you’d have to do with your whole heart, and not because you’re striving to seek continuous attention.

      False, social media will be more important than any other kind of communication in the future. Imagine when we’ll be able to read thoughts of other people. We won’t even need to talk in that case.

    You are a star and an intelligent. Who have the power to motivate, uplift and guide people who are as young as you are. I listen to you and my heart filled with love. Keep on doing what you are doing. Have bleeding life.

    A very successful and influential speaker said he would pick one person out. He said that if he could reach that one person, he would reach the whole audience.

    there are plans for an ASEAN space-center, and many future space-ships will be built there,

    Why is the mic quality so bad?

    i really needed to hear the message in this video. watering down your message in exchange for more attention is very tempting and, as “selling out” typically has some financial or social advantage, it’s a seemingly common path. simply put, quality may be more fulfilling than quantity

    Lmao. Superficial. You do NOT have my support. Sad to see the TED channel stooping to this low of a level

    我觉得这就是我不用抖音最大的原因,通常很火的视频都没有一点价值,信息零散化,当然我认为很多流行的元素出现在抖音里看起来很傻,总之,我很讨厌它

    Going viral helps maintain the status quo, gives hope to all while delivering nothing

    The sound being so bad on this video kept me from wanting to watch the entire thing.
