This Tedtalk touched really strongly on the one of last readings we did, and how we actually can have a really large impact. In the video he talks about how we all have inspiring moments which really impact and help others, but we often don\u2019t realize it or remember because we didn\u2019t view it the same way. Our impact on others and the power we hold is often far more than we initially realize, and we find that terrifying.<\/p>\n
Another thing this video touched on that I hadn\u2019t really thought of before is how most people are actually scared of the idea that we hold that much power. It\u2019s a terrifying thought, so we try to ignore it. Which the speaker cites as one of the reasons people often don\u2019t remember or realize how important what they did was. We see leadership as something we need to work for and earn, and to use the title of leader without doing so is, as Daniel Goleman puts it, arrogant. But as he also says, this ignores the huge impacts we can have, and does us a great disservice.<\/p>\n
