Every spring, Mount Everest
draws in people from around the world to conquer its peak. Despite the riches
surrounding the highest point on Earth, the Sherpa people who live in its
shadow remain poor with few educational opportunities. One man hoping to change
this reality is APA SHERPA, a child of the Khumbu and world-record holder for
summiting Everest. Like many before him, Apa Sherpa was pulled from home at the
age of 12 to work on the mountain as a high-altitude porter. Now, the Apa
Sherpa Foundation is working to create a different future for the children of
Nepal. As Apa says, "without education we have no choice."

This is Episode 1 of my New 6
Part Wilderness Expedition Series.
Follow Me and Saku through a
wild island in the North Atlantic Ocean. We get dropped on the fringes of
Newfoundland's 2,895km² Bay Du Nord Wilderness Reserve, an impressive untamed
tract of wild country. There we will spend two months unsupported and far from
civilization. The goal is to explore 300km of its uninhabited woods and
waterways. But it will not be easy. It's hard work all the way but with it come
rewards bigger than most can imagine!
The trip begins with vast
lakes and tricky upriver travel, but the payoff of raw nature experiences and
tight fishing lines await.
Be prepared to feel the
elements, taste a true wilderness journey, and travel the old way leaving the
motors behind.
The adventure begins!
I will air a new episode every
Friday until the series is over.
Please subscribe if you
haven't already and share, so you or others don't miss the ride!
All the best, and take care.

5 tips for impressive Public Speaking – Speak with confidence |
Personality Development
http://www.learnex.in/public-speaking...
Public speaking is a challenge and it has to be accepted. We all have
that moment during speaking in public on the stage and we go blank. Have you
had one of those moments at your public speaking stints? Well, I have
certainly. Speaking in front of the crowd means, having to go through sleepless
nights, nervousness, deadlines and many rounds to the toilet. Stay tuned as I
share some public speaking tips to help you understand the mistake that you
have been committing all this while.
#1 How Vs What
There is an age-old saying, “A good speech is like a pencil, it has to
have a point.” For this very purpose, you might sit the entire week to frame
the right points by adding on flowery words to make it look good. You might
also make sufficient power point presentations adding graphics to them. The majority of your time would be spent on
preparing the content for the event. But what we miss out is “How to say it?”
Yes, we stress so much time on “what to say?” and very little time on “How to
say?”
#2 Connect better with a positive impression
First and foremost, it is important that we not only make a lasting
impression but make a positive one.
Apart from humour, It’s important to look at your audience. Don’t keep
your eyes fixed on a spot, rather watch across the hall making meaningful eye
contact. This will Help you connect better with your audience. There is no
better way of explaining a point than using examples from daily life or
existing stories. Examples help to relate to the topic much better than
anything else.
#3 The crucial first 90 seconds:
The start of your speech is extremely important. Walk in smartly, lay
your notes on the podium, look up, keep your chin high and greet them with a
smile. Make them believe that you know what you are doing. It always gives one
comfort when the other one has everything under control. Be that person! The best way to capture
attention is to think about a clear and strong phrase that people could relate
to.
#4. Don’t stand like you sit
Unfortunately, as human beings, we stand like we sit, which is
horrible. Never has a person who has
dragged himself on the stage slouching, attracted people. You know what; most
of us don’t realise that much of our confidence depends on the placement of our
chin. Too high gives off an attitude of
arrogance, while too low tells people you’re nervous.
You must observe yourself in front of the mirror by exploring different
angles until you find the most appropriate one.
#5. Don’ts for Public Speaking
Look down or off into space (make meaningful eye contact)
Begin speaking before you’ve reached the front of the room
Play with your hair (facial or on top of your head)
Lean on one hip
Point with a finger (use an open palm)
Fold your arms
Cross your legs
Sway from side to side
Turn your back to the audience
I hope these public speaking tips have benefited you. To top it all
nothing can be achieved without confidence before anything else work on that.
Cheers!

Meet Shaolin Master Shi Heng Yi in his serene talk about self-discovery.
Learn why rainfall is an essential part of each flowering. And every small step
– part of the journey to the highest peek. The hindrances along the way to
self-discovery and personal growth are easy to overcome. Learn how from his
talk. For more than 30 years, Master Shi Heng Yi has been studying and
practicing the interaction between mind and body. His strength is the ability
to smoothly combine this knowledge with physical exercises and to practice
Martial art –Kung Fu and Qi Gong. He has an academic background but he prefers
to live at the Shaolin Temple Europe, Monastery located in Otterberg, Germany.
Since 2010 he has been taking care of the settlement and he personifies the
sustainable development and spreading the Shaolin culture and philosophy. As a
contemporary monk, Master Yi holds a smartphone in the folds of his clothes as
he sees no contradiction between living together with ancient knowledge and
high technology. “The universal law of being successful and happy at the same
time means finding the balance”, says master Yi. And as for flying – yes, he really can do it!
He only needs a stick and a little space. We expect him to fly-in and share
about the Shaolin way at TEDxVitosha 2020.
Artist: Secret
Garden
Album: Earthsongs
Track: Lotus
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
