Why a terminal disease might not be that bad | Bastian Krösche | TEDxTUBerlin


Translator: Mennatullah Mustafa Checker: Nada Qanbar

I almost died almost twice,

During that year.

Thanks to the team of doctors and rescuers,

Nurses, healthcare professionals,

And those around me in my own environment,

I’m with you tonight.

I am also grateful for this, because I love to feel life,

Like many of you here.

But, before I complete,

I would like to share with you some impressions of my daily suffering.

(Video in German)

(End of video)

Sorry for anyone expecting a routine health condition,

But spinal muscular atrophy,

This bronchial disease, which I live in, represents one aspect of my life.

So I decided to change the perspective slightly.

In fact, this was I at the scene,

I shoot a video with a student from the hostile team of the university.

Although I am helpless all the time, I have a busy life

Where I work as a video producer and finish my bachelor’s degree.

With my photography team,

I have already filmed award-winning short films,

And graphic films for companies and institutions in Europe as a whole,

I was taken by helicopter to shoot a video about aircraft security,

I recently began working on a short science fiction film,

With a well-known crew, during the celebrations.

I live in an incurable disease and I am a film producer

They also represent only two dimensions of my personality.

As I have already mentioned, I am also a student.

As well as the son of Mahboob, and a proud brother,

A respectable public relations manager,

The writer rarely writes – unfortunately,

A friend is indifferent to the order of his friend,

An efficient consultant,

And a lot more.

and I’m sure

That does not make me a special person.

Since everything in life, each person has different dimensions,

What we see

Depends on the dimension to which we have focused more.

Tonight, I would like to focus on two dimensions of my life.

Above all, be a video producer.

For all those who have not yet filmed a professional film,

I would like to state the truth

All filmmakers know:

It’s never going as planned.

Want an example?

Well, imagine the next situation.

There is a 20-person film crew

They lean on a balcony from the Ptanaos Pavilion

In the first hotel of a large city in Germany.

At 1:30 am, the weather is cold,

This is the last night

Where production can afford the site.

Suddenly the hero needs a doctor.

Although there is no danger to his life,

The hero must leave then.

Due to time constraints,

Production will not be able to be filmed with this actor again.

Through available time

Photography must be done.

To recognize,

This position of the greatest challenges.

There are many small challenges that occur during film production.

Fortunately, there are people in the field of production,

Are interested in dealing with such situations and the like

Yes, movie producers, since I am one of them.

We are basically paid to make plans

We find solutions if things go unchecked.

Over the years I have developed a curriculum,

So at work nothing can bother me.

Do I need to take a full picture from Berlin to Munich?

not a problem!

I need to shoot a video about aircraft security within 36 hours

While the plane is still in the assembly plant?

Well no problem!

Every time I meet an unexpected challenge,

There are steps he has taken.

First of all, stay calm.

This is the most difficult step in spite of its apparent simplicity.

You may spend hours if not days or even weeks,

To plan for something.

When you find a different result,

Everything I imagined with absolute beauty

It will not happen this way.

You may feel sad, frustrated or even angry.

Skip it!

Because it’s nothing you can do at the moment

To change the situation.

Step 2: Find a new solution.

Yes, you already have one.

It seemed to be better because you decided to apply it.

But now you need another solution.

The sooner you face it, the more you finish.

Maybe you already have other ideas in your mind.

Now it’s time to sort them out again.

If you do not have another idea,

Be creative.

Treat your situation in different dimensions.

Also, be open to new or unusual ideas.

If there is a chance,

Talk to other people about that situation.

They may have different visions of things,

This will help you create an idea and then connect the dimensions to each other.

As for the video security aircraft,

We suspended a blue screen in the assembly plant,

So that we can quickly change backgrounds during the post-production phase.

It was not easy with the withdrawn actor.

But in the end, we appointed another representative and agreed with the scenario in question.

The last step again –

Is the implementation of the new solution.

It may take time.

It may be an effort.

But the truth is that it must be applied anyway.

So just do it!

Whenever I face a new challenge,

These steps are carried out in my subconscious mind

Automatically on its own.

I do not need to think about it.

It took me a while to discover why.

I realized one day,

I was training, I was doing the same

Not only every day at work,

But every day in my entire life,

When I was unable, because I was not strong enough,

To use a joystick already installed due to the wheelchair,

The company found no control sticks required.

When I was unable to leave my parents’ shelter,

As a whole men,

The authorities,

So I found sources to live on with help all the time.

When I was tired

The result of my frequent request of helping me to pay my glasses,

I have brought Chinese chopsticks with me most of the time.

All these examples are mentioned

Can be considered traumatic experiences.

But when you change the dimension you look at,

Realize that this is the best training imaginable

Because he is the creator of solutions.

That is why I have been paid so far.

There are things in life,

Regardless of its magnitude or magnitude,

We can not change it.

An unfinished aircraft can not operate its engine,

A sick representative,

Even if all other details of production are not defective.

Or an incurable disease that I was born with.

But there is one thing we can always do.

It is a shifting of dimensions of positions.

thank you.

(clap)
