Silencing the Noise: The Art of Focus | Hüsnü Alper | TEDxYaşamTasarımSchools

Today, our attention is constantly under attack. Phones, notifications, and social media make it harder than ever to stay focused. The problem isn’t within us, but around us. Focus means giving your full attention to one thing, and it can be trained. By putting the phone aside, creating a simple workspace, and practicing short periods of deep work, we can start to rebuild it. We don’t need to reject technology, but we must take control of how we use it. In a world full of noise and distraction, the real power lies in being able to think clearly and focus deeply. Hüsnü Alper is a dedicated and multi-talented 10th-grade student with a passion for innovation, collaboration, and the arts. As a key member of the mechanical team in the VEX Robotics Competition held in Turkey, he has demonstrated strong problem-solving skills and a keen interest in engineering. His global outlook was further enriched through his participation in a student exchange program between Türkiye and Latvia, where he engaged in cross-cultural dialogue and academic exchange.Beyond academics, Hüsnü is an active contributor to his school community. He is a committed athlete on the school’s basketball team and a proud member of the school marching band, balancing both intellectual and creative pursuits. His diverse experiences reflect a well-rounded individual driven by curiosity, discipline, and a desire to make a meaningful impact. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
