Habits - Why the tortoise outran the hare | Tom Riley | TEDxPrague British Intl School Youth

A fresh new take on an old fable that could improve your daily habits. Tom Riley, 17, does not yet have a doctorate. He is not yet a CEO of a Forbes 500 company, nor has he yet discovered his philanthropic purpose in life. What he is though, at this stage, is an enthusiastic and ambitious International Baccalaureate student at PBIS, where his main interests of study are History, Business Management and English Language & Literature. Outside of school, Tom works part-time as an English teacher at an internationally renowned language-school, where he shares his curiosity and desire to learn with his young students. Tom balances his intellectual endeavours with a life-long passion for football, having actively played since the age of 4. His biggest achievement is captaining the youth team of his local football club to their first league title in over a decade, and he hopes to soon achieve similar successes in other spheres of life, with his eyes set on various humanities courses at some of the world’s most prestigious universities. 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
