The Missing Component of Being Successful | Dr. Armen Orujyan | TEDxYSMU


I’m here to speak about success we’re

I’m here to speak about success we’re more often than not measured by success

more often than not measured by success

more often than not measured by success in things that we do what if we were

in things that we do what if we were

in things that we do what if we were able to put near certainty be able to

able to put near certainty be able to

able to put near certainty be able to measure how successful going to be in

measure how successful going to be in

measure how successful going to be in any business that you want to start in

any business that you want to start in

any business that you want to start in any relationship and in anything that

any relationship and in anything that

any relationship and in anything that you want to do in life moreover what if

you want to do in life moreover what if

you want to do in life moreover what if we were able to induce behavioural

we were able to induce behavioural

we were able to induce behavioural changes by high credence by simply

changes by high credence by simply

changes by high credence by simply giving you more information

what’s success very simple actually

what’s success very simple actually individual capacities rewards and time

when you’re aware about types of

when you’re aware about types of individual capacities you have what type

individual capacities you have what type

individual capacities you have what type of a reward that you’re seeking time to

of a reward that you’re seeking time to

of a reward that you’re seeking time to success is very short when you’re unsure

success is very short when you’re unsure

success is very short when you’re unsure about the composition of your capacities

about the composition of your capacities

about the composition of your capacities of your rewards when you’re uncertain

of your rewards when you’re uncertain

of your rewards when you’re uncertain time to success is elongates

so why is that why it’s pretty basic and

so why is that why it’s pretty basic and the fundamental element of this is we

the fundamental element of this is we

the fundamental element of this is we need to look into biology of a human

need to look into biology of a human

need to look into biology of a human what drives a human being and there are

what drives a human being and there are

what drives a human being and there are fundamental principles ingrained in our

fundamental principles ingrained in our

fundamental principles ingrained in our survival that actually force an action

from early in the civilization in a

from early in the civilization in a primitive form food water shelter these

primitive form food water shelter these

primitive form food water shelter these are those fundamental resources that

are those fundamental resources that

are those fundamental resources that without a without a person will not

without a without a person will not

without a without a person will not survive

survive

survive so the survival this particular

so the survival this particular

so the survival this particular disposition forces an action that is

through evolution as we went from

through evolution as we went from primitive to modern civilization we

primitive to modern civilization we

primitive to modern civilization we acquired three different types of

acquired three different types of

acquired three different types of capacities we’ve acquired intellectual

capacities we’ve acquired intellectual

comes to intellectual capacity essentially it’s the general knowledge

essentially it’s the general knowledge

essentially it’s the general knowledge base that we have it’s the ability to

it’s all of the assets that you have investment savings you name it network

investment savings you name it network

investment savings you name it network capacity is pretty tricky because most

capacity is pretty tricky because most

capacity is pretty tricky because most of the time we ignore it and it sounds

of the time we ignore it and it sounds

of the time we ignore it and it sounds very simple yet it’s very complex one of

very simple yet it’s very complex one of

very simple yet it’s very complex one of the key ingredients of network capacity

the key ingredients of network capacity

the key ingredients of network capacity is reciprocal relationships and the key

this room right now now the question is whether someone like Bill Gates will do

whether someone like Bill Gates will do

whether someone like Bill Gates will do it there by some estimates he makes a

it there by some estimates he makes a

it there by some estimates he makes a hundred and thirty dollars per second it

hundred and thirty dollars per second it

hundred and thirty dollars per second it literally does not worth for him to bend

literally does not worth for him to bend

literally does not worth for him to bend over to pick up a hundred-dollar bill

over to pick up a hundred-dollar bill

over to pick up a hundred-dollar bill because it takes more than a second

he makes nearly four hundred seventy

he makes nearly four hundred seventy thousand dollars an hour this is silly

thousand dollars an hour this is silly

thousand dollars an hour this is silly will make your life this is silly for

will make your life this is silly for

will make your life this is silly for him he may still do it

if he may gain in intellectual capacity

if he may gain in intellectual capacity which he can over time translate into

which he can over time translate into

which he can over time translate into bigger financial capacity and then maybe

bigger financial capacity and then maybe

bigger financial capacity and then maybe he’ll yawn as he walks by and steps on a

he’ll yawn as he walks by and steps on a

he’ll yawn as he walks by and steps on a million dollar Treasury bill so you see

million dollar Treasury bill so you see

million dollar Treasury bill so you see when your core capacity is aligned or

when your core capacity is aligned or

when your core capacity is aligned or misaligned the action is either expected

misaligned the action is either expected

misaligned the action is either expected or not most well rushed for 100,000 but
