The Commodity of Time | Sfiyah Alli | TEDxNewtons Grove Youth

For my TEDx talk, we were asked to think about the future in ten years, and I began to reflect on how much time had really passed, and how sometimes things seem to move so quickly. Time flies by a lot faster than we’d think, and it’s so important that we take the time to be aware of what’s going on and savour every single moment. Time, while supposedly infinite, is a precious commodity that we should make the most of. My name is Sfiyah Alli, and I am a Grade 10 student at Newtons Grove School. I absolutely love the arts, whether it’s music, visual arts or drama. I really enjoy things with a creative aspect, as they allow me to think outside the box and paint a picture of my own choosing. I want to express who I am and what I believe in, using my passion to inspire others, the way others have inspired me. I have been public speaking since I came to this school in Grade 7, and have loved the opportunity to have a presence on stage. Public speaking has given me the chance to take my thoughts and turn them into something meaningful, acting as a connection to the audience, not as a presenter, but as just another human being. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
