Скачать или смотреть The Power of Believing in the Underdog | Kelly Magelky | TEDxFargo

There is a power in believing in each other - especially the underdogs, the folks who don’t draw attention to themselves and are largely overlooked. A real life example played out at a coffee shop I worked at in the early 2000s. There was a group of us who all went on to chase our seemingly far-fetched dreams and, having leaned on one another as well as strangers, gained the confidence to do so. Our small group of baristas included folks who would go on to be the lead singer of The Fray, an in-demand hair and make-up stylist for some of Hollywood’s biggest names, a screenwriter who would write critically acclaimed scripts for The Handmaid’s Tale as well as her own feature films, an award-winning chef, entrepreneur, and on-air personality, and finally a professional athlete and filmmaker. We cultivated a positive community all while slinging coffee and dreaming big. Originally from the badlands of North Dakota, Kelly is an EMMY-nominated cinematographer and critically-acclaimed filmmaker specializing in music and sports documentaries. He is also a former professional cyclist - which was just training for chasing his young twin boys around in Denver, where he and his award-winning journalist wife, Rachel, call home. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
