The “Best of the Web Speech” I chose to write about is “Tony Robbins asks why we do what we do”. I chose this speaker because Tony Robbins inspires millions of people around the world with his speeches. In the video Tony Robbins talked about what drives people to do what they do, what drives him to do what he does and understanding the human needs. For 30 years Tony has been obsessed with “what makes the difference in the quality of peoples lives? What makes the difference in their performance? And how they contribute or do something beyond themselves?
Many people claim they cannot achieve their goals because they say they do not have the knowledge, money, technology, or the contacts to achieve their goal but Tony Robbins says you do not resources you need resourcefulness. Resourcefulness means if you do not have the money to reach your goals, but you are creative and determined enough you will find away to come up with the money for you goal. If you do not know anyone in the industry you are trying to work in, you will go to events, and use social media to network with people in that particular industry.
People need to focus on their decisions that shape their destiny; many decisions people make shapes their future and sometimes shape the future of our culture. Tony believes there are six human needs and they are certainty, uncertainty, critical significance, connection/love, growth, and giving. People can find ways to meet the first four need but until they grow and give they will not have full fulfillment of life
I really enjoyed listening to this speech because I want to fulfill all six needs; I want to be able to give back to my community and people in need around the world. When people learn that the world does not evolve around them, give back to others and show their human compassion toward other I believe the world will be a better place. I want to bring smiles to people faces, and bring them closer together through film and television and I hope I will be successful at it.
