    Now we are listening to him respectfully, just because he has proven himself. People would have laughed at him on these ideas when he spoke about them initially. So it's all about how you believe in yourself and keep going.

    The TED Talks channel features the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes (or less). Look for talks on Technology, Entertainment and Design -- plus science, business, global issues, the arts and more.
