Theme: Shifting Gears

As humans we are programmed to grow stronger, faster, and smarter. Our ability to think, learn and grow bigger has always taken us to heights that we never dreamt. As we know that great things never came from comfort zones. One needs to adapt continuously to new things and move forward in order to grow and reach his goal.

The theme for TEDxCRCE 2019 would be “Shifting Gears” which allows you to change yourself, be open to bigger and better opportunities, detach from situations and learn from those instances which make you a better version of yourself.

Your goals cannot be achieved overnight, you need to go through different incremental phases, as change is a gradual process and it requires determination and discipline to follow through.

While driving a car you cannot directly jump from first to fifth gear, you always need to follow incremental stages. Similarly, when you’re comfortable with the second gear you don’t really know what the third gear holds for you unless you push it to the third. You will never reach the pinnacle of your strength unless you are willing to take risks and accept challenges along with making continuous changes.
