How to 'work hard' and 'play hard' | Roel van de Wiele | TEDxDordrecht

During his talk, Roel will playfully share his key insights on how simple, and particularly human instruments such as laughing and just marvelling at things helps us ride waves of energy and tame stress levels. For the past 25 years, Roel has been aiming to answer the question: in what ways does everyday life offer real possibilities to ‘work hard’ and ‘play hard’ at once. In whimsical and erratic ways, he mobilizes philosophical and psychological concepts to deal with living life and being lived by it. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
