About TEDx, x = independently organized event
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations).

Not sure why the dislikes. The most productive man i know in person does a lot of this. Never quite understood it myself - now i do. Very useful.

I love this. We’ve implemented this in both our business and home life. We enable our employees, customers, and partners to do likewise. Life is precious and far too short.

Thanks Arne. Great video and NO, you didn't waste 18 minutes of my life. In fact, you motivated me to prioritize and do only those activities that are important. Thanks Cheers Rick

One of my favorite TED talks so far to be honest. While I find many talks a bit vague and "on the surface", this one gave me some clear practical advice.

urgency is about deadlines, importance is about value, so go for value- great advice!

Dividing a day into 8 hrs wk, 8 hrs relax, 8 hrs sleep is a nice goal, but it is not an realistic goal for many people. my job requires me to work 8 hrs, then after work I have errands, cleaning, laundry, cooking, plus I need to study for certification exams. And I'm single, with no kids. People in families will only have more going on. Oh idealism....

As many below have pointed out, most, if not all of life is work, now if we can just choose enjoyable work, or make it all as enjoyable as possible. It helps to make life as simple, organized and uncluttered as possible. It helps to work and play with people who have a pleasant attitude and to try to have that too. It helps to make things challenging enough so they're not boring (and to enjoy that challenge) but not so challenging that they're stressful or unhealthy, and to find ways to destress or delegate or get help when necessary and possible.

During this talk I had flashbacks to 3 hour meetings at work where 20 engineers would sit in a room and argue about the grammar and wording for ONE design requirement. I need to show this video at work!

I learned do not do unimportant tasks until you have done your important tasks. And important tasks are about values.
