TedXMac 2017: Steve Marshall, Beauty & Astonishment

Steve Marshall, Beauty and Astonishment

• why a trick works is more important than how it works
• astonishment happens every time you experience for the first time
• “Astonishment is not an emotion that’s created. It’s an existing state that is revealed.” Paul Harris
• the easiest person to fool is a scientist…children are the most difficult to astonish
• the feeling of astonishment can be found all around us
• a little mystery is a good thing
• rise table rise
• see something you did’t see before…pay attention and look with new eyes
• “How much better could your life be if you were astonished every day.”
