"Non chi comincia, ma quel che persevera" | Pietro Catzola | TEDxYouth@AlberghieroRosmini
“Non chi comincia, ma quel che persevera” è il racconto autentico di un viaggio, reale e simbolico, che parte dal mare e attraversa luoghi e scelte straordinarie. Pietro Catzola, Marinaio e Cuoco dei Presidenti della Repubblica Italiana, condivide la sua storia fatta di disciplina, passione e impegno, per ispirare i giovani a credere nei propri sogni. Un invito a salire sul “treno della vita” quando passa, senza paura, con il coraggio di chi sa che ogni meta si raggiunge passo dopo passo. Di origine sarda, Catzola realizza il suo sogno a soli 16 anni arruolandosi in Marina, dove inizia come furiere e addetto ai viveri. A bordo delle navi scopre la cucina e ne fa la sua vocazione, fino a essere scelto per le cene ufficiali. È il Presidente Francesco Cossiga, conterraneo, a notarlo e a volerlo con sé nelle cucine del Quirinale. Da allora serve cinque Presidenti della Repubblica, cucinando per Capi di Stato e personalità di tutto il mondo, senza mai dimenticare le sue radici e i profumi della tradizione italiana.

- 15:55Each Person Learns in Their Own Style | Bùi Mạnh Hùng | TEDxBTEC FPT HanoiThe talk “Each Person Learns in Their Own Style” begins with a question: why do some students grasp a lesson quickly while others struggle? The answer lies in the fact that everyone has a unique learning style and way of processing information. Traditional education often overlooks this diversity, missing out on many hidden potentials. With AI, we can now create personalized learning paths for each individual. The Two Sigma study has shown that students who receive one-on-one tutoring perform significantly better. The speaker shares about Aiducation – a project born from the belief that everyone deserves to learn in a way that suits them best. The talk concludes with the message: each person is a unique piece of the educational MOSAIC, and AI is the tool that can help complete the picture. He scored 1560 on the SAT and 119 on the TOEFL, received offers from Stanford, Johns Hopkins, UC Berkeley, and UCLA, and chose to pursue both his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Artificial Intelligence at Stanford University, one of the world's top institutions. Not only does he have an impressive academic background, but he has also spent years conducting research at AI labs in Stanford and New York. He is also the founder and CEO of Aiducation - a pioneering startup that personalizes education through artificial intelligence.

- 19:19Manifestation: Will the universe really hear your prayer? | Tâm Bùi | TEDxFTU HanoiAppearing at the event with a topic both familiar and captivating, Tâm Bùi left an unforgettable impression at this year’s TEDx FTU Hanoi in auditorium D201. Through his talk, “Manifestation - Will the Universe Really Hear Our Prayer?”, the speaker sought to share the practicality of the Law of Attraction and how to apply it correctly. From the perspective of a photographer, writer, and traveler who has practiced the Law of Attraction for over a decade, Tâm Bùi delivered a compelling message: cultivating mindfulness is how we gain control over our actions, words, and thoughts. Concerned about the skepticism surrounding the Law of Attraction and its misapplication, he shared three thought-provoking lessons: 1. Don't manifest what beyond our reach! 2. Practise mindfulness everyday so manifesting can happen faster! 3. Whether breakpoint can happen or not, whether the universe hear your prayer or not, lies within you. Through this unique topic, Tâm Bùi conveyed an empowering message to the audience: No one but you decides whether a breaking point will occur, and whether the universe will truly hear your prayer. "We don't fear movement because youth only comes once. It's never too early or too late. If you want to, start today." This is one of the profound quotes from Tâm Bùi, a photographer, travel blogger, and author of the travelog "Bụi đường tuổi trẻ" His journeys and invaluable experiences in India, Tibet, China, and more have been memorable, offering him a myriad of emotions and a fresh perspective on life and youth. Unlike other storytellers who use words, he narrates through images. A prime example is his iconic photobook, 'Rooster, Hen & Dreamers,' which beautifully captures the everyday lives and unique perspectives of “special” families.
