Sir Ken Robinson's Speech on TEDTalks



Sir Ken Robinson's speech actually leave a very deep impression on me, it made me wonder if what he's talking about was actually true or not? but the talk was still spectacular and humorous as well. 


He notice's that education system nowadays have their goods and bad about them, not just in one country but all over the world. He was mainly talking about people mistaken the differences between intelligence and creativity, which i think there's no differences between them and they're actually need each other to be exact.
There are a few things that i come to agree on after the speech though.

 If you're not prepared to be wrong, you'll never come up with anything original. - Sir Ken Robinson

He said that people now stigmatize their mistakes, i agree on that because i was among the people who do stigmatize their mistakes but that's another topic...so going on....we know that creativity requires facing the risk and challenges but there are many of us who aren't willing to take it or likewise not even try to fight for it.
Why are we so scared with our mistakes?

I thought that being creative is when you want to express your true self and be different than other people, but why do we held back those desire? Just because some people judge you and they also can bring you down but that doesn't mean we need to give right away. If it continues like this then it will result to a great loss of people with talent but wasn't recognized , with dreams but weren't reachable, with hopes and potential but were crushed by others. This would only lead on to an individuals who are practically low-self esteem and very depressed, if this keeps going on.

                                                        Intelligence is diverse

Sir Ken Robinson said that intelligence is diverse. I mean of course it is!! Just try to think if people keep on receiving information and keep on writing notes like totally normal or add a little bit of highlights it will surely be boring because sometimes people don't even understand what they're writing down because it's to boring and dull. That's why there are people who are very creative whenever they'e receive information, they'll be like doodling with little bubble speech which keeps it interesting and many more.

But so far the society has been pushing the people to only learn a single way of learning which they think will help the children to cope with it and forcing them to learn our way.


 Mistakes are also like human nature, you're born with it and as soon as you notice it you'll be doing mistakes as you grew. Making mistakes is a part of us, we can't run from it nor wish it way, all we have to do is face it and improve, take it as lesson in life that you will better in it. We will grow more wiser and learn more as we make mistakes.
