演说者：Amy Purdy

演说题目：超越极限生活

Amy是一个酷爱滑雪的女孩，因为一场突如其来的疾病失去了双腿。再次沾上滑雪板似乎变得可望而不可及，但她却从来没有因为残缺而放弃自己的梦想。

If your life were a book and you were the author, how would you want your story to go That's the question that changed my life forever Growing up in the hot Last Vegas desert, all I wanted was tobe free I would day dream about traveling the world, living in a place where it snowed, and I would picture all of the stories that I would go on to tell

At the age of 19, the day after I graduated high school, I moved to a place where it snowed and I became a massage the rapist With this job all I needed were my hands and my massage table by myside and I could go anywhere For the first time in my life, I felt free,independent and completely in control of my life That is, until my life took a detour

I went home from work early one day with what I thought was the flu,and less than 24 hours later I was in the hospital on life support with less than a two percent chance of living It wasn't until days later as I lay in acoma that the doctors diagnosed me with bacterial mening it is, avaccine-preventable blood infection Over the course of two and a half months I lost my spleen, my kidneys, the hearing in my left ear and both of my legs below the knee

When my parents wheeled me out of the hospital I felt like I had been pieced back together like a patchwork doll I thought the worst was over until weeks later when I saw my new legs for the first time The calves were bulky blocks of metal with pipes bolted together for the ankles and a yellow rubber foot with a raised rubber line from the toe to the ankle to look like a vein I didn't know what to expect, but I wasn't expecting that

With my mom by my side and tears streaming down our faces, I strapped on these chunky legs and I stood up They were sopainful and so confining that all I could think was, how am I ever going to travel the world in these things How was I ever going to live the life full of adventure and stories, as I always wanted And how was I going to snowboard again

That day, I went home, I crawled into bed and this is what my life looked like for the next few months: me passed out,escaping from reality, with my legs resting by my side I was absolutely physically and emotionally broken

But I knew that in order to move forward, I had to let go of the old Amy and learn to embrace the new Amy And that is when it dawned on me that I didn't have to be five-foot-five anymore I could be as tall as I wanted! Or as short as I wanted, depending on who I was dating And if I snowboarded again, my feet aren't going to get coldAnd best of all, I thought, I can make my feet the size of all the shoes that are on the sales rack (Laughter) And I did! So there were benefits here

It was this moment that I asked myself that life-defining question: If my life were a book and I were the author, how would I want the story to go And I began to daydream I daydreamed like I did as a little girl and I imagined myself walking gracefully, helping other people through my journey and snowboarding again And I didn't just see myself carving down a mountain of powder, I could actually feel it I could feel the wind against my face and the beat of my racing heart as if it were happening in that very moment And that is when a new chapter in my life began

Four months later I was back up on a snowboard, although things didn't go quite as expected: My knees and my ankles wouldn't bend and at one point I traumatized all the skiers on the chair lift when I fell and my legs, still attached to my snowboard — (Laughter) — went flying down the mountain, and I was on top of the mountain still

I was so shocked, I was just as shocked as everybody else, and I was so discouraged, butI knew that if I could find the right pair of feet that I would be able to do this again And this is when I learned that our borders and our obstacles canonly do two things: one, stop us in our tracks or two, force us to get creative

I did a year of research, still couldn't figure out what kind of legs to use, couldn't find any resources that could help me So I decided to make a pair myself My leg maker and I put random parts together and we made a pair of feet that I could snowboard in As you can see, rusted bolts, rubber, wood and neon pink duct tape

And yes, I can change my toe nail polish It was these legs and the best 21st birthday gift I could ever receive — a new kidney from my dad — that allowed me to follow my dreams again I started snowboarding, then I went back to work, then I went back toschool

Then in 2005 I cofounded a nonprofit organization for youth and young adults with physical disabilities so theycould get involved with action sports From there, I had the opportunity to go to South Africa, where I helped to put shoes on thousands of children's feet so they could attend school

And just this past February, I won two back-to-back World Cup gold medals — (Applause) — which made me the highest ranked adaptive female snowboarder in the world

Eleven years ago, when I lost my legs, I had no idea what to expect But if you ask me today, if I would ever want to change my situation, I would have to say no Because my legs haven't disabled me, if anything they've enabled me

They've forced me to rely on my imagination and to believe in the possibilities, and that's why I believe that our imaginations can be used as tools for breaking through borders, because in our minds, we can do anything and we can be anything

It's believing in those dreams and facing our fears head-on that allows us to live our lives beyond our limits And although today is about innovation without borders, I have to say that in mylife, innovation has only been possible because of my borders I've learned that borders are where the actual ends, but also where the imagination and the story begins

So the thought that I would like to challenge you with today is that maybe instead of looking at our challenges andour limitations as something negative or bad, we can begin to look at them as blessings, magnificent gifts that can be used to ignite our imaginations and help us go further than we ever knew we could go It's not about breaking down borders It's about pushing off of them and seeing what amazing places they might bring us Thank you

有这样一个舞台，即便全世界各个角落的人都能从网上看到它的直播视频，每年仍有逾万人愿意为它付出7500美金的门票，只有其中一千能够获得入场邀请；31年来它贡献的精彩视频多达数千个，而这些视频的演讲却是在每年3月初的短短4天内完成；它的每位演讲者，纵有超世之才，千言万语都只能浓缩在18分钟里；它是一个非盈利组织搭建起的舞台，却堪称寸土寸金，拥有各种比世界顶级联赛更加夺目的赞助商广告。从身为国内某一 TEDx 成员的角度来讲讲这个问题。如果你要申请一个 TEDx 的话必须了解其运营规则，而在 TEDx Rules 中 Branding +positioning 规则下有两条规则是这样的：TED logo: Never use the TED logo in any communications or brandingTED and TEDx: Never say “TED is coming to (my city)” Make clear in all communications that you are a TEDx event, an independently organized TED-like event, and are not TED Make clear that you are a TEDx(EventName) organizer, and not an employee of TED。也就是说 TEDx 不能用 TED 的名义来宣传，否则就违反 TEDx Rules 了，其后果之严重可以直接让 TED 总部吊销你的 TEDx 执照，所以这也是很多 TEDx 组织刻意多次强调 TEDx 只是 TEDx 而不是 TED 的原因；其次真的很烦国内一部分人的「TED 什么时候来我的城市」这种说辞，TED 目前所举办的大会都在国外，你在国内所看到的皆为 TEDx；另外，如之前的一位答主所说，二者的含金量不同。TED 大会的标准门票价格为 US$8,500 ，而 TEDx 的官方规则要求票价不得高于 US$100 ，且必须向 TED 大会提交售票申请并获得批准才可以。Admission: Based on approval from TED, you can charge an attendance fee for a TEDx event featuring live speakers Tickets must always be less than $100 USD and should go towards event and operating costs In order to charge an admission fee, you must first submit your proposed ticket price for approval from TED

And most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a　beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions,　make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level!　In your mind’s eye, you can see clearly the things you want to have,　the paces you intend to go, the relationships you desire to develop, and　the positions you aspire to reach　You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when　everything happens as you dream　You can see the iles on the people around you when the magic moment　strikes　You can feel your face is getting red, your heart is beating fast, and　your blood is rushing all over your body, to every single corner of your　being!　You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and　mitted! And you are confident, you are passionate, you are mitted!　You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial　expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and　asking new questions　You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and　you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you　take　You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of　your life You will never succumb to challenges of hardships　You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence After all,you are　the best, and you deserve the best!　As your coach and friend, I can assure you the door to all the best　things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your　hand You must do your part, you must faithfully follow the plans you make　and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must never fear I　know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!　Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out:　I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!　I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!　I must do it! I can do it! I will do it! I will succeed!　retert4356435
