There is no human on this planet, who lacks a strong aspiration of achieving personal goals, planning future steps and living a dream life. But these aspirations remain as useless thoughts without taking relevant actions. Inspiration and Ideas are always the first step, the second and the most challenging one is Action.
Time for deeds and actions has arrived. Surprising science behind the impulse that drives the actions from thoughts has to be relieved.
TEDxFSUJena 2016 invites you to one big journey through the Universe of Actions. The event is focused on the importance and need for actions that affects and drastically changes the world.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.
