In this TEDx talk, Harib Khan explores the relationship between time, value, and impact, challenging the assumption that success depends solely on having more money or more time. He argues that while people may lack one or the other at different stages of life, what truly matters is how intentionally value is created with the resources available.Drawing from experiences across different cultures and economic systems, the talk reframes business and career-building as forms of problem-solving especially in developing economies where challenges are abundant. Harib highlights how learning, experimentation, and ethical decision-making can gradually compound value over time.The talk also examines the fashion and manufacturing industry, emphasizing sustainability, ethical labor, and responsible consumption. Harib argues that every purchase is a choice and a vote for the kind of systems we want to support. By focusing on ethical practices, efficient use of resources, and innovation, he makes the case that impact is not measured by money alone, but by the value created through conscious use of time.
