Yahia M.Elamin

 Electronics Engineering/Computer Engineering & Network 4th Year

Goal & Passion :

 my goal is to change the world .... to put a Ding on the Universe by making a Technology break through and making a community change..
 

about the theme :

many people enter collages or make studies or even work on something they don't like something they do just to earn money and at the same time they are passionate about something else but the just don't believe that it is the thing they were born to do or the can make great things by it ... so life goes forward then they find their passion and what they are good at ... then they realize that its all what the want to do and what they can do best ... this is following you passion .. what we want to do is to help those who didn't find it yet or afraid of following their passion by motivating and encouraging them to do it and go forward .... i always believe that a man does best when he is doing what he loves .. "what he loves" is the definition of passion

experience with TEDx :

what i got from TEDx :

 form TEDx i meet all the great mind local and global and one of the is the executive director of Linux "John Hall" and R who won Ruganzu Bruno TED prize and many others and the Most important thing i got from TEDx is the great and huge knowledge and experience in all aspects of life such as

   i really didn't think that it was such a good idea for a theme.. i went back home thinking that everyone who voted for this theme are wrong , i laid down on my bed..closed my eyes and started thinking...
   after thinking for a while it just hit me like this !
   Passion is actully the only reason that can make you work so hard in order to acomplish or complete something they really love and want to do.. Passion is the thing that makes you stand up on your feet and try what you've failed at again.. but most of all..
   Passion , is the one thing that gives you a chance to be a Hero and a rollmodel in the thing you love to do..

   Mohamed dreams to be a great graphic designer and writer, he aims to publish books in a short time..

THE THEME

أثبتت الدراسات أن من يمكلون مشاعر جياشة و أفكار فائضة تجاه كينونة ما.. يعيشون أسعد.. و أكثر!

و هذا هو الشغف.. أن تمتلك ما تعيش ﻷجله.. أن تجد ما تتمنى ان تنجز فيه قبل أن تموت.. الشغف هو أن تهزم كل يوم ألف مرة.. و تستيقظ كل صباح كالملك الفاتح..

سيناريو أول:

قد يبدو كل هذا كجرة الذهب بآخر قوس القزح.. شعارات رددت كثيرا و أثارت في النفس ما أثارت.. ثم مضت كأن لم تكن..

(م) تدرس الهندسة.. تستيقظ كل يوم بعد صراع مع النوم.. تذهب للجامعة.. و تعود لتذهب إلى الجامعة مرة أخرى صباح اليوم التالي.. و ستستمر على هذا الروتين حين تعمل.. و حتى تتقاعد..

(م) رسامة محترفة.. قد تستغني عن النوم و الاكل ﻷيام و هي تعمل على لوحة.. فهي تجد النشوة في.الرسم.. شيئا فشيئا أصبحت لا تجد وقتا لترسم.. و أصبحت (م) الرسامة مجرد ذكرى..

(أ) طالب آخر بكلية الهندسة.. يقضي يومه نائما بين سريره و مقاعد الدراسة صباحا.. و مساءا يشاهد كرة القدم أو يسترخي بشارع النيل..

(أ) ينتج أفلاما قصيرة من باب قتل الفراغ.. يشهد له أصدقاءه بالإبداع لكنه يفعل ذلك كهاو من أجل المتعة فقط.. لا أكثر..

(س) خريجة جامعية.. الأولى على دفعتها.. لها ذاكرة حديدية و تلتهم كتب الدراسة التهاما.. (س) اهتمت بموضوع الميكانيكا الحيوية حين درست مقدمة عنها بالجامعة.. و قدمت فيها بحثا مميزا و حصلت على تقدير ممتاز في تلك المادة.. أحبت جدا دراستها.. ثم تخرجت و نسيت كل ذلك..

قد تشعر انك تعيش مع آلاف ال (م) و (أ) و (س) و تراهم حولك.. و لا تجد ما ينغص حياتهم! حياة مكتملة.. لكن ماذا لو خرجنا من الصندوق قليلا.. و تجرأنا على الخروج من المنطقة الآمنة التي سبقنا عليها الكثير.. و حاولنا البحث عن جرة الذهب!

سيناريو أجرأ:

(م) انهت دراستها و تفرغت للفن تماما.. (م) تعلم انها ستعيش مرة واحدة و تريد أن تسعد بذلك بعيدا عن المألوف..

(م) لا تجني الكثير من المال من بيع لوحاتها.. لكنها سعيدة!

(أ) يخرج كل يوم لعمله.. مهندس مميز ينجز عمله أسرع و أكفأ من أقرانه.. نتيجة لذلك لديه صلاحيات أكثر (يخرج من عمله وقت ما يريد).. ليس بالضرورة ان ما يتقنه هو مصدر سعادته.. فهو يعمل بقناة محلية و له قناة على اليوتيوب ينفذ فيهما أفلاما من الواقع.. باحترافية تفوق دارسي الإخراج.. فهو لا يجد نفسه إلا بين شخصيات أفلامه و القصص التي يشهد عليها كل يوم.. (أ) حائز على جوائز على أفلامه.. (أ) لديه بريق بعينيه!

(س) تحضر الدكتوراة في الميكانيكا الحيوية.. بعد ان تخبطت بين المجالات و الوظائف تفرغت للدراسة.. تدرس بالجامعة الميكانيكا الحيوية كما لم نعرفها من قبل.. حتى أن طلبتها أصبحو لا يكتفون بالمقرر عليهم.. تعمل عفى مشروع سيعيد احياء الملايين من الأطراف التالفة.. هذا صباحا.. مساءا (س) زوجة و أم.. (س) امرأة.. لكنها لا تتذمر من التعب و الارهاق!

و هنا يتجلى موضوعنا "اتبع شغفك" ذلك الصوت الصغير الذي يرن بعقلك و تتجاهله.. تلكرالأفكار التي تراودك و تضحك و ترمي بها بقاع ذاكرتك.. ذلك الاحساس الذي يسيطر عليك و يجعلك تنتشي سعادة حين تقوم بفعل ما تحبه.. يمكن لتلك اللحظات الصغيرة من البهجة ان تصبح حياة كاملة!

لا معنى للمال أو المركز العالي بشركة ما أو النجاح بصورته التقليدية إن لم تكن ترى عالما من الفرص اللامحدودة كل يوم.. كمن يبني جسرا للوصول إلى الضفة الأخرى من النهر.. فيبني أطول جسر في العالم.. لكنه يوازي النهر ولا يصل للضفة الأخرى!

التحدي يمكن في أن تجد ما انت شغوف به حقا.. إن وجدت ذلك.. هنيئا لك بجرة الذهب 

Studies have proved that, people who have emotive feelings and floating thoughts toward something, live happier and longer..!!

And that is what's called passion, that you have something to live for, to find what you wish to accomplish before you die, passion  is about losing thousands of times, but then waking up like a victourious king…

A first scenario:

All this might seem like beyond our reach, like idioms that were said a lot, interested us, then left  us trapped in their meanings..

(m) studies engineering, wakes up everyday after a battle with sleeping. She goes to collage then comes back , so that she goes again the next morning. And, she'll keep this routine until she find a job and retires.

(m) is a professional painter, who would give up sleeping and eating for days while working on a paint, because she feels the joy in painting. Then little by little she can't find time for it, and becomes  just a memory.

(a) another student majors in engineering. He spends his days between his bed and the classrooms in mornings, and watching tv or relaxing in Nile Street in evenings.

(a) produces short movies just for killing his spare time, and he's  well known for his creativity in it, yet he's doing it just for fun and nothing more.

(x) is a graduate and the first among her colleagues. She has great ability in memorizing. She was interested in the biomechanics field during her collage period, and  presented a research about it that got her a big mark in this subject. Then, she graduated and forgot all about it.

You may feel like you're living the pain of the (m)s, (a)s, and (x) and you see them around you, with their perfect life!.. but what if we can step outside the box a little bit, and dare to go out of safe zone that a lot has stayed in before us….

Another daring scenario:

(m) has finished her studies and vowed herself for arts. (m) knows that she'll be living one life so she wants to happily live it beyond the expected. She's not making enough money, yet she's happy.

(a) goes out to his work. A great engineer who is faster and more capable than his fellows, for this reason he has more power (like leaving whenever he wants). It's not a necessity that his job is his source of happiness; he's working in a local channel and a YouTube channel that he makes in them some professional documentary movies, in which he finds himself. He has won several awards. (a) has some glow in his eyes..!!

(x) is preparing for her PHD in Biomechanics, she has freed herself for studying after going through lots of  different jobs. As we never accustomed her, she's now teaching biomechanics in university, even her students  are not studying just the given courses. She's working on a project that will help in renewing millions of damaged organs. Nevertheless, she accomplishes all that during daytime, but in evenings (x) is just an ordinary wife and mother, a woman, yet she doesn't complain about exhaustion.

From all this, arises out our theme (follow your passion), that little voice that rings in your mind but you keep ignoring it, those thoughts that  come up with but end up laughing at yourself and then forgetting about them,

That feeling that controls you and makes you glow of happiness  due to doing what you love. Those little moments of joy can be a full life.

There is no meaning of money, or a high position in some company, or even an average success, if you can't see a world full of unlimited opportunities each day, as if someone building the longest bridge to cross a river, but he ends up building it alignment with the river and not able to cross it.

The competition is in finding what you're truly passionate about, if you find it…Then, congratulation you've won the lottery ticket…!!

Tough Talk

17/4/2013

     Yahia Alamin raised a question that kept rining in every one's heads.. WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?

people's answeres were short but varied, alot couldn't express what they had in mind.

but in general, they represented the main goal of TEDx events, spreading ideas.

Registration team:

     The prov. event registration form is ready, published but not yet shared on social networks.

Speakers team:

     No speakers has been nominated yet, no one filled the nomination form, but by 10/5 the team will deliver the final list of speakers, as Waleed said.

Event management:

     An initial schedule was prepared by the team, they were advised to review the rules of TEDx organizing to build up a better schedule.

Media team:

 They made a design of the brochure, which is a very nice one but misses final touches.

The logo that goes with theme is still under process, the creative adviser Roaa Majzoub gave them her point of view  about it.

Social media team:

     Twitter account has many tweets which is good but needs alittle bit more effort, Facebook page is very weak, the admin Mohammed Salah didn't attend the meeting but he was informed with his role.

    Many people missed this meeting, which meant that some thing was wrong. So Mr.Mohammed A. Abdulkareem complained about punctuality and commitment. Gave the organizers strict rules and advised them to learn more about TED and TEDx events.
