MY Ithaca - Secrets and Lessons: Yiannis Kalogerakis at TEDxUniversityofPiraeus

Dr. Yiannis Kalogerakis based on his life journeys and the lessons from his Ithaca, his speech inspires and motivates us. The most suitable moment for decisions is this one, just today when our happiness begins and we should make it begin. We must discover what make us different from other people, to find what we love to do. By practicing it we will become better and then the only we have to do is spread it all over the world. Nothing should be taken for granted. There is no reason to worry about situations when we can improve them and that's why is necessary to become very careful on the way we live our lives. Everyone must seize the opportunities and put our own demands on ourselves. Every man should stand by his fellow man because the satisfaction he will receive is immeasurable. By leaving the comfort zone and our fears behind, and with faith in ourselves we will create an auspicious future. The experiences, travels, our association with other people are only few of all that we should keen on. Let's envision the future and get passionate with it.
