One More Step | Dia Manoj Kumar Bhat | TEDxThe Orchid School

About this video

Life can take unexpected turns and sometimes things may not go the way we want. This talk shares simple and funny stories about running, failure, friendship, and growing a plant to show that we should not give up when things get difficult. Instead, we should learn from our experiences, try again, and keep moving forward. When life takes a turn, we should “turn the turn” and make the best of it.
