Everyone has heard of TED talks … right? Well just in case you haven’t, let me inform you of how awesome they are. Here are reasons why you need to watch TED talks starting right now!

1. They are inspiring.

Not only are TED talks knowledgeable, but they are also super inspiring. They open your mind up to new ideas and concepts, with a simple and fun twist. They all include real stories and realistic events, which help to light that “inspiration match” in your head while watching.

2. They are entertaining.

TED talks are awesome for many reasons, but the entertainment aspect is a huge reason why I watch them. Sometimes, some of the talks have well known people, such as actors, famous public speakers, and well-known individuals. Most of the speakers have great and humorous personalities, so that helps you stay in tune with what they’re saying. They make it interesting!

3. They aren’t boring.

Believe me, I get bored very easily, and have the attention span of a 3-year-old. With TED talks however, I find myself constantly paying attention and engaged in the talk. They’re interesting enough that you never really get bored watching them, hence why I love them so much!

4. You learn life lessons.

TED talks are great because they actually teach you something, instead of just telling you things you don’t really care to know. When the talk ends, you will feel enlightened, and obtain a completely new mindset for how you live your life.

5. They’re free!

Great talks like these should be hard to find, but they aren’t. They’re free, and easy to find. Click away, and watch at no cost!

6. They’re easy to access.

These TED talks are contained on the website, https://www.ted.com , but you can also find them on YouTube! You can see the most popular ones, or the ones that relate to you most just by typing in what you want in the search bar. There’s so many talks, so it’s possible that you’ll find the exact one, or one close to what you’re looking for!

TED talks are all around great, and something that you definitely need to make a part of your everyday routine. Watching one talk in either the morning or night can change your opinion of the day very quickly. You will feel better overall, trust me!
