Como pessoas comuns atingem resultados incríveis | Alex Bonifácio | TEDxYouth@EAB


I’m here today because there’s more than

ten years I’m visited by one and the same

question

and this question is the following common

how ordinary people achieve results

incredible in the most diverse areas

or rather how ordinary people achieve

amazing results from

very simple features that always

were available but most of them

of people simply ignored these

resources

I am constantly visited by

example like a man alone

without team without special features leaves

motorcycles several times over

what year did you say that this man is a

sixty years old

all he had was a shed where

he spent his days fiddling with this

bike with more than 20 years of use

today the original speed did not arrive

90 kilometers per hour and that

used a cork from the bottle of

brandy as the tank cover.

fuel

how is this possible

or as a teacher from 27

dollars that bank that bank today

lends tens of billions of dollars

in several countries of the world

The most interesting thing is that customers

of this bank they do not sign contracts

they do not offer guarantees because they are

poor people he created a bank for

poor people who have no guarantees

to offer the teacher who turned

banker still win the nobel prize

of peace 27 dollars or as Ugandan that

fled your country is on account of a

bloody dictatorship that settled by

also want to understand this formula

but before telling the secret of these

People, I want to tell a story.

so it’s very simple, I’ll write

on a piece of paper an innocent

another piece of paper the word guilty

a simple touch of wit

he transformed the certainty of the

conviction

certainty of absorption absorption and

turned 0 into 100% and everything he

needed to do this was well in the

reach of your hands was literally

a good simple solution but in life

real things do not work like it

in our day to day work in our

our challenges

there are complex issues

apparently impossible does not have

simple solutions well within reach of

our hands is not it

I’ll give three examples of this.

What I’m talking about

the first has to do with the fact that

still in the world today

at this point in the championship more than one

billion people who do not have access

to electricity in Malawi by

Example 98 population have

electricity

but if there was a way to offer

electricity to people living in

countries in a short space of time.

time without investments

financial and technological resources and

free does not change this is not

able to offer electricity from

quick and free way without

technological financial investments

is an impossible equation but despite

This problem affects so many people in

so many places in the world

was a poor Malawian adolescent who

found an alternative to this

apparently impossible equation

there was a great drought in Malawi and he

remember that his father after

a lot of people died

I would stand in silence looking at the whole

that land ravaged by drought

He thought I think my future is going to be

Like my dad, he did not have any money.

to pay for school so he stayed in the

library of the village leafing through books

and magazines

and it was in one of those magazines that he saw the

photo of mills

moment he thought the windmill

It produces electricity can pump

water is the solution that people

need for our challenge to change

our reality and immediately left the

your project

he took a piece of wood one

old tractor motor propeller a

old bike dynamo that he

found in the old iron and the result

after a lot of work it was this mill

enough to light four

lamps and make two radios work

four lamps and two radios in one

region completely depleted of

electric power is a great

revolution

that village had a water pump

but it was not used because there was

then it builds a second

and for the first time that

community has access to safe water

another great revolution and others

mills came many others came to

transform reality in a way

significant friends neighbors etc

the equation is possible the solution was

simple

the resource was already there but most

of people simply ignoring my

work to build im

I guess it’s been a lot of work

second example concerns the fact that

that on the African continent there is still

thousands of landmines and data from

periods of war as if it were not

suffers the tragedy of children and

adults dying or being suffered

amputations on account of these mines

people can not deploy until

Farm fest but nobody plays

because you can not get rid of those

mines as countries are most in need

they always depend on help

international level but if there

way in a short time

eliminate these thousands of mines

countries are abandoned in countries

Africans in an almost gratuitous way

does not give this is an equation

impossible and despite this problem of

is to bother politicians and people of

various parts of the world

was a developer of products that

was born in Belgium and moved to

tanzania who found an alternative

for this equation

he thought the following look what the

resource that I have here in abundance

free that I can use to win

this challenge

he saw many rapids there and he

She remembered when she was a child she

I played to train mice and rats

are trainable and smell is the

rats is superior to that of dogs now if I

I can use dogs to sniff drugs or

find people under the rubble

I can use rats to tell where

are these land mines

using lighthouse and once I

I found a mine site to remove not

it’s the problem taking it out is easy then

he created a method to teach people

train in rats to find mines

terrestrial

the problem is impossible to solve

was already available but being

ignored by many people imagine that

demonstrates work training rats

third and last example good little

few people here should remember but in

1989 there was an accident on the coast of

Alaska with an oil tanker called

Edson Valdés

the edson valdez dumped on the shore of

Alaska is millions of liters of oil

total environmental disaster

despite having invested more than 2

billions of dollars even today is

possible to find exxon oil

valdez on the alaskan coast

the company managed to take more or less

only 18% of the oil

good then let’s create an equation

This problem is impossible as in a short

time to remove all oil

off the coast of Alaska and

saving a good part of the 2 billion

dollars if that were possible

someone had done well not to give

do

in spite of this matter for the role of these

biologists specialists was a

alabama hairdresser who found

an alternative to this

problem he was watching over

the images of the accident and saw

otters impregnated with the coat

impregnated with oil

Looks like you want the coat of the

otters absorb oil

I work with nephasthi hair

dye the hair to remember sometimes

hair full of red to be the one

human hair also absorbs oil and

he made a very simple experiment

he collected the hair that was in the

floor of your beauty salon has put

inside a sock picked up a bucket full

of water

played in the four-liter quarter of

lubricating oil and threw

hair in the bucket the result

two minutes in water as a crystalline

large-scale test showed that 630

thousand kilos of hair would have solved

two weeks what edson valdés did not

solved in 30 years and saving good

part of the 2 million dollars

Good, but we’ll get 630 thousand

kilos of hair this is another

story this is another story

but the solution to this problem

the equation is impossible to

solution solution was

simple was already there but most

people simply ignored

then from these examples we

we can say the following yes in the

real life

apparently possible equations

problems that appear to be insoluble can

have a simple reach solution

of our hands with resources already

available for this

2 any person has the ability to

solve impossible equations in

hairdresser a poor boy any

person

the product developer this is not

monopoly of people with five phds who

speak five languages or study in

best universities

people with this ability to

transform what seems impossible

impossible are here today they are

within the companies of the

where we act, they are within the

our homes ready to use this

ability to change reality so that

extraordinary good but if all

people have this ability because only

few uses

It is true that only 5% of people use

their ability to transform something that

it seemed impossible impossible

much is said about waste but this

it’s the biggest waste in the world

Have you ever wondered how many?

transformations we will have in

society and in the world if instead of five

15 30 40% of people

we would live in another world much more

prosperous

What do these people do differently?

What is the secret of these people well after

ten years analyzing observing and

researching these people

The good news is that the big

between her and the cells and the

others is in the field of attitudes and is

good news because the attitude to

people can now change the main

difference is even in the field of

match

at the time these people will

what are your challenges?

are your goals

their equations impossible for the

people in the group of 5 percent

objective an equation must have

some ingredients

she has to be full of purpose

and meaning

it has to be relevant and

and she has to wake up

an emotional connection with who will

solve this impossible equation

because when these elements are

meeting the person taken by the

curiosity and who is taken by the

curiosity does not rest

They do not want to talk about something else.

they do not want to be anywhere else

they want to continue only if

dedicating that impossible equation

that challenge and then produce 10 times

more than an ordinary person only up to ten

times more creative einstein said I

I do not have any great talent

has no great talent but I have

immense curiosity because these people

They do not want to do anything else they do not

find paths and rails trails

ready then they end up creating

new things even because they do not

they are afraid of being ridiculed

saying look I’m training rats or

I’m collecting hair for

pursue a goal with these elements

Americans and who want to know more

about it just go to Ted because

his testimony is here

good the developer of products that

born in Belgium created one where this

ong tries to multiply this knowledge

this method of training mice that

was used in more than 10 countries by changing

reality in an extraordinary and

helping people to overcome hunger and

created some products that are already

It is used in waterways for

and it has been found that the

even hair can be used up to 99

times in the process of decontamination and a

ong was created to remind you when it

talked to jackson a little hair one

ong was created to collect hair

the beauty salons so that when

something like that happens

everything is ready

an impossible equation replete with

purpose and meaning that is

relevant and transformative that creates a

emotional bond with who will solve

this challenge

these are the ingredients that make

ordinary people turns into reach

incredible results

therefore it is urgent to ensure that a

number of people

uses this ability to transform the

0 in 100% in the most diverse areas

using resources that are already

available because as we have seen

when a single person finds

greatness the whole society evolves all

the world wins because the impact of

it is their very large

how to do this

This is my impossible equation.

thank you
