Challenge yourself to step out of the norm | Khanh Vy Tran | TEDxVinschoolHanoi 

Thank you very much ❤️

" The best advice is the advice that people give you for you, not the advice what would they do if they were you ..... EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT "

I'm crying because eveything she said is true, now I'm going to love me more

"Just be yourself" I love this so much, just be who you are, love yourself, and don"t try to change to like other people.

She made me realize that no matter how imperfect or flawed you are, always smile and confidently step forward. She really inspires me a lot.

I admire her when she was so nervous and didn't know how to speak the word right, she was calm after that. This girl deserves to be loved. I still remember how some people judged her and I don't know why. Just because of her voice? Just because they are jealous? No! Stop the hate, she is worth loving for.

I love the way your mom thinks! She is spot on and supported you even tho it was not the easy path to follow but she knew you loved it.

i love the power she holds and how much she has improved for years. she inspires me for not giving but keep improving and going forward

"The best advice is the advice that people give you for you not the advice what would they do if they were you because everyone is different." I love this :)

"People cannot take the right decisions in your life, only you can by listening more to your inner voice and by staying true to your vision"

' Love yourself, accept your self and then transform yourself." Thank you

Never have I envision her stepping on this stage and giving a presentation concerning her own lesson for over 15 minutes long. Your speech is flawless. Your inspiration is out of this world. Please keep up the good work.

Welcome to the TedX gang! Our girls Thao Tam and Khanh Vy have all been through some great struggles unknown to the public, thank you for sharing this to us and wish you all the best! Your voice has improved a lot and don't worry about the temporary swings, with enough practice you will find the balance that you so deserve. And - Don't just be yourself - be the best version of yourself!

You found your purpose... I love your energy.

This speech totally make me feel inspired a lot, thank Khanh Vy so much for your energy, your talent, your inspiration and your enthusiasm. I’ve listened for this speech for several times when I feel disappointed about myself and I found the reason to try and try harder every single day.

Big thanks to your mother Vy. I really admire her for loving and being behind you always.

im on the cloud nine when i see you confidently standing there and giving such an inspiring speech. you made it, really made it! i love u and will love u for good.

"No matter who you are, where you're from, your skin color, your gender identity, JUST SPEAK YOURSELF" - Kim Namjoon BTS -

Her speech was really genuine, I would have loved to listen to her in her bubbly high pitched voice the same and in fact very much!

I have followed her from her first video which she talked in 7 languages. She is really talented, very energetic as well as she always learns more and tries her best.

You speech hit me in the time i feel insecure the most about myself.Thank you so so much for your inspiring speech

Yeah.. You made me remembered a line and it goes "Be yourselves, everyone else is already taken" (Oscar Wilde). Thank you, I enjoyed it, it was a great and inspiring talk.

I burst into tears when she said "Just be yourselves" . Very inspirational and touching speech. Love you a lot Khanh Vy !

she was a pretty famous person about 6 years ago she became famous for a video in 7 languages it was really impressive. She is a person with a lot of energy and every time I see her on TV I have a great motivation. Sometimes I dream of being able to stand on a big stage and confidently say like her,

She have been trying her best every day. Congratulations Vy!!

This speech got me so emotional. This girl has been through alot to get this success in her life.

I'm not much confident but one day I'll make myself confident and feel proud. One day I'll be there to tell my success story.

I have been suffered from anxiety and disappointment recent days due to problems about my study and future career. Watching this video is really heart-touching and I was nearly about to cry when hearing the words "Just be yourself". Thank you Khanh Vy for your talk, which is so emotional and inspirational.

Her voice is getting much better and better. I admire her effort so so much

Great talk Vy. Accepting yourself as who you are is one of the greatest gifts that you can give to yourself. That’s also mean you would accept others as who they are, and people would be much more compassionate to look from that perspective.

I think this is one of the ted talks video that I can understand without subtitles. Thank you so much for your positive energy and meaningful story. It makes my day.

Through her smile and confident she is deserve to speak.

I feel that she's really nervous!! But she's always bright

This talk came up to my home page just the time that I need it the most! This girl calmed me down. Thank you

So proud to have such a young talented Vietnamese lady.

Some people has said that this speech focused more on being true with yourself and accept who you are rather than step out of the norm but for me, staying true with yourself and don't try to be someone else is already a HUGE step out of the norm; Many people are being feared and stressed out by difficulties in life and get depressed and sad so they kind of prevent them from doing incredible things. The statement of "Step out of the norm" can be easily understood just by know exactly who you are and what makes your life enjoyable and valuable, it's not about being outstanding or being famous or inventing some thing extraordinary. Thanks to your wonderful speech Ms. Vy, it's very well-done.

You have made a progress. Now, you have a great voice. Really appreciate your efforts; love you ❤

Wow that's such an inspiring speech. I wish you stay peaceful and happy in every second of your life 💪

Khanh Vy Tran, this is one of the best Ted Talks I have seen. Your story, your pronunciation, your voice, your message - so inspiring. I almost cried while listening to you haha! Thank you for stepping out and sharing this to all of us.

I came across a shortcut video of this speech in tiktok. And then I'm here to listen it fully. This speech totally inspired me a lot. Thanks for your positive energy, your enthusiasm, your courage to stand here and give everyone an inspirational talk. Hope that I can see you more successful in the future. You're worth loving for!

you're my inspiration to learn English again. In the past, the subject I'm good at is English. But during my university, I forgot it. I just learn English a little bit. But when I see first video on facebook, I think I got the reason to learn English. Thank you, thank for your positive energy.

Your voice is absolutely amazing. I hope you'll be on the TED Talk stage even more. I love you

It is always exciting when I watch a Vietnamese speakers on TEDx stage. Some words to Khanh Vy, You are not only a gorgeous girl but also a smart and talented one. Your story is so inspirational, love it. I wish you the best in life. Keep your passion!!!

Really really admire you and the way you try to perfect yourself day by day , sister ♥️

Never charge yourself Love yourself Accept yourself And transform yourself ❤ TRAN KHANH VY i always follow youuuu

"the cloud rains when it's heavy too". Thank you for this more-than- inspiring speech.

She's so confident. Thank you so much, you have changed my thought a lot. Respect🥰

I am moved extremely when hearing this. I used to be a girl, who lost hope in myself, lost the direction of my life, and live a life based on others' opinions and judgments. Your speech has touched my inner soul, and I really appreciate it! Thank you very much, Khanh Vy!

its amazing how this video just appeared on my feed. I am feeling so down because why can't I do better and speak confidently like her and him. I was busy questioning myself today about why i am lack of confidence to express and be myself. Thank you for your wonderful messages and stories. I've learned a lot. I promise I won't seek anyone's validation and I'll be myself for always.

I like the way you use the word "transform" at the end of your speaking. In my opinion, when you know how you want to be, what you want to do, and you try your best to "transform" yourself to become better, that's also being yourself. Listening to your inner voice and becoming a better version than yesterday. Thank you for sharing a very motivating story

I have seen this video 4 times , her voice is so amazing, i was inspired by her . This is the first time i listen that don't need to see transcript , i hope you will keep your confidence like this

Awesome, was really needing someone to say this to me. Sometimes, it feels like you are the shame of your family, you are willing to go to the wrong path, but this is what I want and you gave me energy to continue with my goals. :)

How could you keep such a positive energy continuously throughout the representation 😍

No matter who you are just be yourself and remember no one cannot take the right decision in your life just you only yourself ♥

"Individuality makes diversity And, individuality and diversity are the two precious things on the Earth" Thank you Vy, this is so inspiring

This speech hits me deep, I actually teared a little bit. Because my situation is similar to you, I'm at gateway to make an important career decision.

Motivational and wonderful speech indeed ! I have watched quite a lot of Ted, and i found that vietnamese have a very good foreign accent in English at the same time not losing their own style . And also they way they talk have a great emotional impact and inspirations to us as well.

Your voice is so precious. I would love to listen to it many times.

She's so pretty, so strong, so talented and inspired so many young people. Found out passions are extremely important in our life. Especially being live with it, do what we love to do every single day, we feel free with ourself that make life more meaningful and full energy.

After your speech I was crying, your words resonate in my heart❤️ you have positive energy, you're strong, you're wonderful! I'm so glad to find your Ted talk, thank you ✨

I really admire this girl, her attitude, her positive energy. Even working with many foreign bosses, my English accent is still bad. I knew and tried every day to practice like a kid. Her story motivated me lots. Never give up, listen to your inner voice and keep moving forward. I'm sure soon your effort will get paid back.

Several years ago, the thoughts "Who am I?" and "Do people need to listen to my introduction because I have no value towards them?" repeated over and over in my mindset. However, her speech inspires and motivates me on my journey with a view to finding out my passion and discovering myself. Obviously, it does not include any academic knowledge which may make us misunderstand, it was just her own story about her youth and how she could be herself. Trust me, all of us will effortlessly see ourselves in her talk and realize that sometimes, we get lost. If you are not brave enough to fight for yourself, you will never discover your inner energy and you will never know how strong you can be.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. I have learned many things from Khanh Vy, I can change myself for the better. "Just be yourself" are three words that mean a lot to me because I've made many mistakes, but I'm still on the path I've chosen and trying to challenge myself. i never give up

Pure heart and soul I see in you. Thank you, Vy.

thank you, learning so much from your presentation. just be yourself, dont be affraid of what the other people think about you.

It is easy to say “be yourself” when you are successful in the life. It is important to discover everything about yourself and learn how to live your life happily with your identities and adapt to the community when needed. Loving and accepting your good and bad things are necessary to be happy, to overcome bad situations and to keep developing.

Hello Vy, I'm so happy to see you on this show. This is the first TedxTalk video I follow from the beginning to the end. I really want to say thank you for your inspiring story that pushes me study harder and harder day by day. I realized that only me never forgives for my mistakes, not someone else; thus, I have to be myself and love myself more and more. Thanks my little girl!

Motivates me a lot as I'm going through existential crisis, weird time, thoughtful and depressed about what's going on in my life. Thank you so much for sharing this

Thank you Khanh Vy, you made not only the native Vietnamese proud, but also myself. You are truly a national pride.

Her talk and story is so sweet and beautiful. Really love all the inspiring and motivating esp from your story. This could touch many ppl who are trying to change themselves just to follow other opinion. ❤️

I love this speech and thank you for sharing your story to many people. I am so lucky to decide to listen to this speech!. I have the same attitude that we have to trust in ourselves. Sometimes, some people around you will say that you are not tallented enough and you are not good enough to be successful. But if you keep moving, keep going, trust in yourselves. You can do it. And I also have a big dream to be a speaker like you to inspire young people. And I believe that I can do it!

Actually this video inspires me a lot, I'm not a confident person, sometime I pay too much attention to the other's thought about me so I just want to do something that make people think good about me. this video make me realize that believe myselt i have to believe in something I am doing so i won't regret. Thanks so much

You did a great job, Vy. I always admire you and your attitude toward your work. I think we have some things in common. I always care about what people think about me as I became popular in some extents. I know it's not good but I can't stop myself from doing this. I try to hide my emotion and my ability so that I can look like a normal person and nobody will continue to care about my life. It was good at first because people start to forget me. However, my life now is full with anxiety and sadness. I don't know how to express my feelings and I just feel the same for everything. I can't feel any hapiness or anger. Yeah, that's how people's jugements can negatively impact someone. I am trying to understand myself deeply and take care of myself better which I shoud always have had to do. Thank you for your great advice to be ourselves and don't allow others' perspectives to affect our life. I hope to find my inner peace soon as you did😊

I'm studying at midnight, I pratice listening English day by day through TED... I hope one year later I could get 900 Toeic and excellent graduate Bacholer's Degree...

Dear Khanh Vy, I am very empowered by your speech. Thank you so much for having the courage to share your personal experience. Keep up the wonderful work. Godspeed.

Great speech! Seems like you have been through a lot and also grown a lot to realise those values

from my perspective, I think this speech mentions more about being yourself and following your inner voice rather than stepping out of the norm of yourself. but it doesn't matter, it's an immensely meaningful speech , I love the positive energy that you transfer to everyone thank you very much

i almost cried when i heard "just be yourself" i suffered bodyshaming when i was a primary student n it just ended when i graduated high school. Now i'm a university student, i receive love from people every single day. That's because i changed myself to become better, to become a version i want. i was touched by Khanh Vy's speech. Thank u!

I am admired her so much . Sometimes i feel frustrated because i meet many troubles in my life such as my studying or family and so on . However, when i watch this video ,i have useful message and motivation to overcome all the things and step forward . Thank you so much , chị Khánh Vy .

You are so great, you are so young but you have many core values that everyone need to learn and follow. Thank you

"my true self is being covered up with the thinking and the perception based on fear" - didn't expect to find myself in your words, but it's so accurate. Thanks Vy for sharing your experience. It's really relatable :)

Omg don't know why I cried listening to this speech. So inspiring

Thought I knew myself but like everyday, we need to allow ourselves to learn when new experience rise - Really helped me today, Thank you

I think that an authentic work that we need to do for ourselves is living ourself, even though things don’t work well as we want, we need to know that we ever have our inner voice that it will conducts us to the most appropriate path to realise ourselves.🌷

Just be yourself and be the best version of yourself . I love Khanh Vy because she inspired me so much to learn English harder and be confident in myself .....

this is the first video of Ted talks that I heard and understood clearly, completely, without subtitle🥺 it’s due to your excellent pronunciation, your tone and your inspirable stories. I really appreciate them and I’ve leant some valued things from this video. Stay healthy and keep going, sister 😻

A ted talk gave me a lot of motivation on my personal development journey. Always believe in yourself, acknowledge and appreciate your differences. Thank you Vy for creating so much positive energy.

So... This is my first video that I can hear and understand clearly .Up to now ,my listening skill is so bad but I can understand the things which are talked . Thank you so much Vy .Your stories are valuable and it inspires me a lot . I hope you will be more success in the future . Thank you so much

Khanh Vy's a special person. She is trying to bring a lot of value to other people. Sometimes, I was tired and disappointed in myself but while I saw these videos from her. she inspired and motivated for me a lot and makes me stronger than ever. Thank you so much.

Other Tedx Talks, I could not hear lots of informations that speakers talked about but I could understand all KhanhVy's stories because of her familiar voice and some special Vietnamese words she added.I never forget her sentence:"JUST BE YOURSELF" It's flawless!!!

It's really heart touching speech . Just be yourself because you have your own unique personality.

This is the first video I watch till the end and no need for a subtitle.she inspired a lot of younger, she helped me understand a lot of things in life ,helped me more confident and have enough power to do my dream, thanks to you sis.Stay you health🥰

I was really throughly impressed , you speak so well, so confidently. Your lecture give me the motivation to become more stronger. Best wishes to you. Thank you guys for your speech

Hmm... She said that "never change yourself" but I think she changed a lot to become a better version of herself. Her speech is very inspirational, but I think that it would be more perfect if she had said that "you can change, but to be the better version of YOURSELF day by day not the other person and not to reject yourself!" Above is just my personal idea! 😅

you're my idol, i followed you from your first video, your first step. I knew how much pain you feel and how you dealt with those problems, and after that i really admired you. you inspired me to do what i never do ... Khanh Vy, keep doing!! em yeu quy chi nhieu .

Khanh Vy is always my biggest inspirational person. She is the type of person that I really want to be.

Khanh Vy is my idol who I want to become in the future. I watch this speech every day to get closer to my goal. I learn by heart this speech and I can feel the fun vibe, the positive energy at her

15:11 It's okay to feel bad, it's okay to feel down and heavy sometimes because the cloud rains when it's heavy too. How I love this part and the metaphor being used here 💙Thank you for an amazing speech!

i don't know how many times did I replay her ted talk, love you Vy, You inspire me a lot

11:12 got me speechless! been there and i admit that its useless to change for someone. and yes - we don't need any validation from people. just trust your voice even tho I'm still struggling to hear mine but well thanks so much for the positivity!!
