These TED Talks Will Have You Motivated All Damn Week

TED talks are short powerful talks that often motivate viewers in some way. TED's mission is to spread ideas through concise but powerful talks, which are usually 18 minutes or less. I was first introduced to these talks upon joining a social group at work, and I've been hooked ever since.


Incorporating a TED talk into your morning ritual or nighttime routine is a great way to get inspired. I also allow these to play at work while I multitask. Just listening makes a major difference in my day.

Here are a few stellar TED talks that will have you motivated all week. Check them out and let us know your faves in the comments section below:

How We Met is a series where xoNecole talks love and relationships with real-life couples. We learn how they met, how like turned into love, and how they make their love work.

As I move through life and experience different highs and lows, one thing that has become increasingly clear is the importance of self-love and self-worth. Now, I’m not saying it’s always easy, but I do feel like if it’s in a good place, people experience life more fully. And when it comes to love, my friend Amanda Wicks and her husband, Will Ford, are the perfect example.

Amanda may not remember this, but years ago, on one of her many visits back to Atlanta (we both went to Clark Atlanta University), she sat across from me at a dinner table and declared she was done looking for love. She was happy with who she was, and while she still desired it, it was no longer something she was chasing. “If it happens, it happens,” she said. The statement was so bold it made me quickly reroute our usual dating story catch-ups and awkwardly move to a different topic.
