Robert Nikic TEDx Talk: How to Weaponize Failure | TEDxParkland

TEDxParkland · 4:49

Robert Nikic's TEDxParkland talk on how to weaponize failure. He explains ego depletion, why failure falls into two categories, internal and external, and how to turn each into power: treat internal failure as feedback, and read external failure as a GPS telling you which way to turn. He draws on failed startup after failed startup and on his family's escape from the Balkan War. His message: you haven't failed, you just haven't weaponized failure yet. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
