Why is it important for people to take on great challenges? Why is the reason many people fail to take opportunities right in front of them? Eric Ngu shares his thoughts on both issue, and will attempt to convince you to ask yourself, when faced with such a challenge or opportunity, not "Why" but "Why not?" Ngu Chee Hong, often simply called Eric by his friends, is currently studying at ISB for his IB Diploma, having spent his whole Primary and Secondary school life in CHMS,BSB. He has been an active student, joining events such as the Borneo Global Issues Conference, the Chung Hwa Model United Nations, and various other events as a representative for both ISB and CHMS. An aspiring teenager with hopes of one day being able to take part in changing the world for the better, he is constantly pursuing new challenges to further improve his abilities and also to learn new things. 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
