FINDING BALANCE IN THE DIGITAL AGE | HELLY TONG | TEDxUAH

“Why do we exist in this world?”
One of mankind’s all-time question – one that we must have asked ourselves several times during the span of our life.

Helly Tong, successful entrepreneur at age 23, reckons that everyone is born for a reason. That reason becomes our destiny and thus gives us the motivation and belief to continue our existence. Through her confessional talk, sharing about her two current projects, her past projects that she considered to be a failure and the period studying abroad in Australia during which she experienced bouts of depression, Helly urges us to re-determine whether we, at the moment, truly “live” or simply continue to “survive”, by differentiating between these two different concepts.

So what does it mean to “live”, and how does that differ from to “survive”? How can we find inner balance in our life?
First, breathe, as advised by Helly, and let’s find the answer for ourselves through Helly’s talk title “Finding Balance in the Digital Age.”
