In this 2011 TED Talks video landing the first spot on our list is Cameron Herold’s thoughts, reasons, and ideas for incorporating entrepreneurship into the education system. Herold, like many successful entrepreneurs, didn’t quite fit into the standard doctor, teacher, lawyer route being preached to him. He brings practical ideas that can be used to encourage students who have a natural tendency towards entrepreneurship.

Creative Problem-Solving in the Face of Extreme Limits | Navi Radjou
Navi Radjou shares a testimonial styled lecture about growing up in a developing country. While some emphasize how this struggle makes your humble and patient (which it absolutely can) it also helps you to become creatively resourceful. Thinking outside of the box has never been more crucial for entrepreneurs who seek to set the trend instead of following it. “...Peppering his talk with a wealth of examples of human ingenuity at work, Radjou also shares three principles for how we can all do more with less.” This video is a fantastic representation of creating opportunities for yourself, regardless of your place and setting. It comes down to you and your creativity. Stepping outside of boundaries gives you the opportunity for you to create a pedestal. Sure, it will definitely be intimidating, almost like a chick hatching out of the eggshell, you’re coming into a new world and trying to find stability.
