As you can see on his instagram she has more than three hundred
thousand followers and a profile with motivational content and quite
positive since he also works in a partnership for suicide prevention

The Tedtalk I have been inspired by is about the importance of words,


the power of how we can consciously and effectively use them to
create positive change.
The words we choose can have a significant impact on how we feel
and how the people around us feel.
She also talks about the importance of being aware of our inner
language and how it can affect our self-esteem and our relationships
with others

I wanted to take two paths to reflect on this theme:

1. Negative impact:

In this case we can talk about studies and academic life. He shares
some very interesting data such as that 80% of students in Mexico do
not know what to study when they finish high school; and within that
percentage 40% is wrong when they make a decision. These mistakes
come mainly from the influence of parents and friends.
She herself said she wanted to study arts but ended up in marketing
because the words that said her at the time when she had to make the
choice marked her a lot.

They told hem that, in this case, arts was for dumb people, that it was
not a serious career and that he had to study a real career.
After the impact these words had on her, she was no longer able to
study arts and chose the career she was recommended.

Here it focuses on the labels that are often put on something or


someone, which in the end, make yourself believe what they are
saying and directly influence your life or decisions.
The impact of words will not always have negative things since
Rebecca gave us a hopeful story about the positive impact.

As I have already told you it works in Vale la pena, which is a suicide
prevention association; because in this TedTalk counts how with these
messages, with calls and all this work; that after all are words, we
return to the impact and the consequences.
Many people are healthy because of these words and are still alive.
we do not need to go to these extreme cases to understand that just
like our words and the way we communicate things can negatively
influence people and ourselves; we can also create positive impacts to
our surroundings and help.

So looking at these examples, I hope I have made you understand a


little more the impact of words and how important it is.
