TEDxIB @ York - Amin Sharifi - The Power of Will December 20, 2011

Favorite:

Amin Sharifi, now in his final year of the IB program at Bayview Secondary, took great interest at a young age in the mind's influences on the body. In "The Power of Will," he discusses the virtues of stubbornness and virtually unreasonable persistence in one's
ideas, and how these traits are crucial to achieving success, contrary to their common negative interpretations.
