Life-Extension

Hello TEDheads, **Happy New Year!** Last Friday is known as 'Quitter's Day' when most of the people in the world give up on their resolutions. No problem, we all face that with every positive choice, but what helps us to gain resilience to live the lives we want to live? These talks will help us have a conversation around purpose, our story, and resilience. Are you living the life you want? ***Please watch the following 2 talks on your own device BEFORE the event. Have a watch, compare the videos, and bring insights and questions along to the conversation.*** *** # ★ **Talk #1:** [The roots of resilience](https://www.ted.com/talks/misty_copeland_the_roots_of_resilience?referrer=playlist-10_essential_ted_talks_of_2025&autoplay=true) How did Misty Copeland break barriers and become one of the world's most famous ballerinas? In this powerful talk, she charts her rise from childhood adversity to history-making dancer at the prestigious American Ballet Theatre — and gives a peek at what she plans to do next. https://www.ted.com/talks/misty_copeland_the_roots_of_resilience?referrer=playlist-10_essential_ted_talks_of_2025&autoplay=true # ★ **Talk # 2:** [What Makes Us Uniquely Human? | Erwin Raphael McManus | TEDxSanDiego](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BdgVfhciSwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BdgVfhciSw) Erwin challenges us to understand that we are naturally creative, that we are the only species that is capable of creating our own future. We, in fact, have the power to materialize the invisible, to create that which we can imagine. And we also have the capacity to imagine ourselves different that we are, better than we are. In the end, the question is not “Will we create?”, but rather, “What will we create?” Erwin Raphael McManus was born in San Salvador, El Salvador, and lives in Los Angeles, California with his beautiful wife Kim. He is known for the integration of creativity and spirituality and the pursuit of what it means to be truly and fully human. He is the founder of MOSAIC, an expression of the church born out of Los Angeles, California. MOSAIC is known for its commitment to beauty, creativity, diversity, and social entrepreneurism and has been named one of the most influential and innovative churches in America. Erwin is the author of several books including his most recent bestseller, The Artisan Soul-Crafting your life into a work of art. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BdgVfhciSw **Please note the following:** We want to provide a space for those who are curious about life, enjoy TED Talks, and want to share their findings with others.
