commitmentship, l’abilità di far accadere le cose. | Cristian Acampora | TEDxLegnano
«Ventisette.»
«Perché non trenta, scusa?»
Da quella voce ferma di un padre militare è iniziata, anni fa, la rivoluzione silenziosa di Cristian Acampora.
Sul palco del #TEDxLegnano, la sua storia ha preso forma tra sorrisi, pause e sguardi che parlavano più delle parole.
Ha raccontato il peso e il dono del dovere, la corsa costante verso il risultato, la convinzione che la forza fosse nel non cedere mai.
Finché un giorno, lo sguardo della madre (una sarta, un’artista travestita da casalinga) gli ha permesso di chiudere un cerchio:
comprendere che la vulnerabilità è una virtù!
Non riuscire non è fallire, ma semplicemente essere umani!
Da lì, tutto è cambiato.
La commitmentship, l’abilità di far accadere le cose, si evolve, si completa, progredisce, con presenza, con equilibrio, con coraggio.
Con la capacità di accogliere gli errori e prosperare nel disordine.
La sua formula: Skill per Will, elevata all’Antifragility, fratto Procrastination, è diventata un promemoria per chiunque voglia trasformare la propria forza in crescita.
E mentre il pubblico ascoltava in silenzio, qualcosa si muoveva.
Un pensiero, un ricordo, forse una promessa.
Perché ogni rivoluzione silenziosa comincia così: dentro, dove nessuno vede, ma tutto cambia.
Una standing ovation che resterà nel cuore. “Sono una pecora nera. Credo nella vulnerabilità come forza.”
