Ambition and Success | Diya Bhutani | TEDxYouth@ACSIntlSingapore

In her enlightening TedX Youth talk, Diya delves into the intricate relationship between ambition and success, inviting the audience to ponder the ever-evolving nature of these abstract concepts. Drawing from her personal journey, she shares a defining moment when she placed overwhelming emphasis on achieving a specific award, only to be met with disappointment and a loss of motivation. Diya takes the audience on a psychological exploration of ambition, referencing Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs and how it relates to the pursuit of esteem and recognition. She astutely categorizes the driving forces behind ambition into positive and negative factors, underscoring the significance of being propelled by passion and purpose rather than external validation. Diya's talk encourages her listeners to reflect on their motivations and avoid falling into the "comparison trap," advocating for a reassessment of the yardsticks by which we measure success in a world brimming with diverse opportunities. Diya Bhutani is a student driven by a passion for leadership and service to society. As the founder of a multi-school law conference in Singapore, Diya has created a platform for meaningful conversations and legal awareness. In addition she wholeheartedly commits herself to various social initiatives leading the “Why Walk When You Can Dance” program which encourages self-expression through dance, and the Lasallian mentoring program which works to support primary school students academically and socially. Currently, in her final year of the international Baccalaureate programme, Diya enjoys running and doing ballet in her downtime! 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
