The Courage to be disliked | Nan LIU | TEDxFuxingPark
Coming from a small county town as a rural teacher, she went on to become a sales champion at a top German company and joined a global talent development program. At the age of 40, she started learning a foreign language and mastered it proficiently within three months. Liu Nan's life is full of amazing stories. Now, as a blogger, she is affectionately called "Internet Mom" by girls. She teaches girls how to get along with others in the workplace and how to wear a shining crown for themselves. LIU Nan has accompanied and nurtured nearly a hundred young talents in the workplace, among whom 20% achieved promotions in their early twenties. As a long-term practitioner and lecturer of growth mindset, she believes that every trial, error, and turning point is an opportunity to expand the boundaries of cognition.
In recent years, she has embarked on another path in life as a "new blogger and painter". Her oil paintings have been selected for the "Super Puzzle" Art Festival, and her first solo exhibition The Wrinkle of Time is currently in preparation.
She has always pursued spiritual nourishment without clear "titles" — seemingly useless, yet they are the source of creativity. She is not obsessed with role definitions, nor is she eager to label the future. "I don't even know who I will be," is her most sincere answer to self-exploration.
On the road of constant evolution, she is willing to take curiosity as a lamp and move towards the unpredictable distance. 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

- 19:06The Heartbeat of the World ! | The Mode . | TEDxMaviliSquareΑν η μουσική ήταν ταινία, το soundtrack θα είχε την υπογραφή τους.Οι The Mode δεν παίζουν απλώς μουσική — πλέκουν πολιτισμούς, εποχές και παλμούς σε ένα mashup που σε κάνει να θες να χορέψεις, να σκεφτείς και να χαθείς.Με το project KOSMOS, μας ταξιδεύουν από τον ηλεκτρονικό παλμό του σήμερα, στις μυστικές μουσικές του χθες. Γιατί κάπου ανάμεσα στο παλιό και το νέο, στον θόρυβο και τη σιωπή… εκεί χτυπά η καρδιά του κόσμου.Ακούστε. Νιώστε.
