What would your world look like if you had the ability to shape and create what that world would look like. Winning my 7th World title taught me a lot about myself, getting out of my own way and believing in myself.
Layne Beachley is widely regarded as the most successful female surfer in history. The only surfer, male or female, to claim six consecutive world titles (1998-2003), Layne then went onto win a 7th world title in 2006 before retiring from the ASP World Tour in 2008. Not only is Layne a world champion surfer she is an inspirational speaker and a champion for the education of girls.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

She used to smile at me whenever I'd be going for a swim at Freshwater and she'd come out after a surf. I'm not used to smiles from strangers let alone pro surfers. Truly one of the kindest souls...

This lady made me realise that it was actually my fear of rejection, that inspired me to set up a group for lonely people, it was the same fear that inspired me to set up a community scheme which gives out over 600 gifts each year to lonely people in the community. it’s this same fear that drove me to set up a now, very successful internet business which puts a smile on thousands of faces. Now, 3 years on, I no longer have time for that fear of rejection because I am too engrossed in everything I do. I only have time for people who help me shine, but more importantly, I know I’m being that ‘candle’ for many many people ..... anonymously.

Thank you Layne! This talk of your has help answer so many questions of mine. One of the hardest things for me and others I believe, is how to change self-limiting beliefs. You have proven how to do it. Also It's good to hear about how you were unhappy, even though you met your goal. I was suspicious of that myself because I saw the warning signs from others, that reaching your dreams does not mean you will be happy. At the end of the day, or life, that's what I want. To be happy, and what you talked about makes so much sense. It's all about how you go about the journey. It's about your core, underlying beliefs. Muuuuuuuuuch love!

Thank you Miss Layne Beachley. This is a very inspiring video and I am so happy to hear the words coming out of somebody else mouth. I concur with exactly what you are saying and I have been lacking confidence to bring it forward. Thank you for everything. I like to say; Forget About Me I Love You.=F.A.M.I.L.Y. We breathe the same air, we drink the same water, we eat the same food, we share the same color blood and most important for each person, is we all poop the same. there are no differences between all peoples on earth. This is only my opinion but my valuing belief.Truth, Trust, honesty. remain priority.

Wow! A wonderful motivational speech. To achieve any goal, first, you have to believe in yourself (this is faith or Saddha in Buddhism). Then you need a plan to go to your destination (this is the right view or Samma ditti). Then you should associate good friends who help you, encourage you, and push you (this is Good friends or Kalyana mittata in Buddhism) Finally, you have to go through it.

That's because in this reality(tedtalks) we are mostly people that are aware of, or becoming aware of, our true potential, so there aren't too many doubters surfing the Ted waves, as there's Nothing of interest,,,yet. Everyone wakes up at there own time.

@ThatWhatIs393 5 жыл бұрын

Lol, this is hilarious. Have you even listened to the talk? By talking so badly about other people as you do in this comment you enforce this idea/expectation you have onto your reality, actually making it true for you. As Layne explained, you see what you want to see, believing your beliefs into existence. Trust others and you will attract the right kind of people to prove your comment wrong ;). If this is interesting to anyone, Alan Watts has some lectures here on KZfaq that deal with the same concept. You always get what you want :).
