The Superpower of How To See The Invisible | Inder Sethi | TEDxIFHE Hyderabad
In this engaging talk, the speaker takes us on a journey of failure, perseverance, and discovery. After failing the SSB exam twice, he learned the power of refocusing and ultimately went on to earn a PhD in AI. Using clever examples - like a half-vague image of a cow that everyone initially misinterpreted. He demonstrates how shifting our perspective can reveal what is invisible at first glance. This talk is a compelling reminder that success isn’t just about what we see, but how we choose to see it. Brigadier (Dr) Inder Sethi was commissioned in the Indian Army in 1991 and has served 34 years, including border and counter-insurgency operations. An Ammunition Officer, he has represented India in the UN Mission in Ethiopia-Eritrea and served as an international expert on landmine safety with the German Military School.
