Meric Atesalp is a junior at Robert College. He takes pride in not being part of the instant messaging community. In this talk, he explores a connection between success and use of rhetoric, and strength of emotions and use of vocabulary. 

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.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
