The Power of a 'Nobody' | Riti Heda | TEDxSafa Community College Youth

Riti challenges the idea that being a “nobody” is a weakness, revealing how struggle, humility, and starting from the bottom build real strength and success. Through personal experience and inspiring examples of world-changing figures who began unnoticed, Riti shows that greatness is often forged without applause. The message is clear: you don’t need to be seen to matter; sometimes the most extraordinary journeys begin with being a nobody. Riti, a Year 11 student, approaches everything with curiosity and dedication. She describes herself as someone who values effort over attention and substance over show, bringing depth, curiosity, and quiet determination to every journey she takes. 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
