				<description>&#060;p&#062;Caro, this is one of my favorite TED talks! I try to watch it every now and then for inspiration. &#038;nbsp;I love the idea of using games to solve real life problems. &#038;nbsp;I remember an article a while back where a breakthrough in AIDS research was made by having a lot of people tackle the a piece of the problem through gaming. &#038;nbsp;Harnessing our competitive side can really help solve real world problems.
&#060;/p&#062;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;Thanks Janet &#038;amp; Gigi - I loved the dove-tailing of the 5 regrets of the dying &#038;amp; the 5 positives people took away&#038;nbsp;from trauma.&#038;nbsp;

				<description>&#060;p&#062;That is inspiring! I remember reading once that you can gauge the health of a particular relationship by comparing the number of positive statements to the negative ones. If the ratio of positive to negative is less than 5:1, your relationship isn't as healthy as it should be. This is similar to the above comment that you want a 3:1 ratio for positive to negative emotions.
&#060;/p&#062;

&#060;p&#062;&#060;span&#062;“A traumatic event doesn't doom us to suffer indefinitely. Instead, we can use it as a springboard to unleash our best qualities and lead happier lives.”&#060;br /&#062;&#060;/span&#062;&#060;span&#062;&#060;br /&#062;“If you can manage to experience three positive emotions for every one negative emotion … you dramatically improve your health and your ability to successfully tackle any problem you're facing.”&#060;br /&#062;&#060;/span&#062;&#060;br /&#062;I found the above TED talk &#038;amp; quotes inspiring.&#038;nbsp;It is a couple of years old so I may be the last one to have seen it  <span aria-hidden="true" class="emoticon emoticon-smile icon-emoticon-smile "></span>
