Aaron Hobgood uses the formula of fail, learn, progress, on a daily, sometimes hourly basis with his students at Skate Naked indoor skatepark in Columbus, Ohio. With the new generation being used to instant gratification, Aaron does his best to show them that not everything happens right away. Most of the time, patience and persistence are the only tools you need. Time waits for no one. Aaron Hobgood understands this better than most. A native of Rochester, New York, Aaron moved to Columbus five years ago. As an accomplished skateboarder, artist, and photographer, this self-taught creator uses a fierce combination of motivation and patience to learn and understand. 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
