The importance of pain on the path to resilience Scott Greenberg TEDxTemecula

Sometimes the pressure to cheer yourself up holds you back. With a little more presence in your pain, you may find the inspiration you need to reach new heights. Most motivational speakers recommend making lemonade. Scott Greenberg looks at the value of the lemon itself. While a graduate student in film at NYU, he was diagnosed with cancer. Inspired by his grandmother, a Holocaust survivor from "Schindler's List," he beat the disease and went on to run a marathon, perform stand-up comedy, direct several award-winning franchises, write a book and conquer cancer again. He has given presentations in all 50 U.S. states and around the world to businesses, associations, government agencies, athletes and others seeking to achieve their best. 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
