The DO Lectures - 10 Best Talks.

Chicken Shed Chronicles

Hi There,

It's David here.

At each DO Lectures Global event, we record the talks.

And then we give them away to the world for Free.

(This is only possible by people paying to attend the event and our workshops. So all kudos goes to them.)

Here's the 10 most viewed talks from the DO Lectures archive.

(They have been watched by millions of people.)

These pieces of gold can really help you to think differently.

I hope they inspire you to go to the next level.

Best regards,

David Hieatt

Co-founder

GILES DULEY - THE COMPETITION BETWEEN STUBBORNNESS AND FRAGILITY

"Each one of us has the ability to create change, to do something. Maybe I can inspire someone else who can save a life. Each of us can create a ripple that can help others and change the world."

KATIE ELLIOTT -THE POSSIBILITY TO CHANGE STUBBORN BEHAVIOURS

“I have had a reoccurring tendency to get through 80% of what I was doing and then stop just at the point where I thought it was getting promising, or I'd fall apart and give up. The only thing I’ve done consistently in my life has been to crumble, and I don't want to inspire anyone to do that.”

Katie is one of the very few author-illustrators to have sold over 100,000 copies of a book featuring cartoon slugs (Fun Factory series, Boosey & Hawkes). She has also worked as a freelance puzzle designer for the RSPCA, performed in theatres all over the UK in an unflattering pastel catsuit, co-founded a social enterprise and home educated two sons. Until very recently, however, no matter what she did it was a struggle. In 2016 her life changed in a dramatic way. She now runs Little Challenges, a project inspired by all she had to learn to stop struggling and start enjoying life. Alongside work as a speaker, workshop facilitator and mentor, she is creating an online library of videos, podcasts and interviews, designed to help make the business of being human just a little bit easier.
