Today after my Gym date I had the opportunity (thanks to Netflix.com) to begin watching TEDTalks: Life Hack - Season 1. 

Now I know some of you are asking... "what is TEDTalks" -- "who is TED" -- and -- "why does he say it like we should be familiar with it/him?".

All very understandable and I totally agree.

WHAT IS TEDTALKS?

TED (Technology, Entertainment, Design) is a global set of conferences owned by the private non-profit Sapling Foundation, under the slogan "ideas worth spreading".

TED was founded in 1984 as a one-off event.^[1] The annual conference began in 1990, in Monterey, California.^[4] TED's early emphasis was technology and design, consistent with its origins in the Silicon Valley.

The TED main conference is held annually in Long Beach, and its companion TEDActive is held in Palm Springs. Both conferences will move from Long Beach and Palm Springs to Vancouver and Whistler, respectively, in 2014.^[5] TED events are also held throughout North America and in Europe and Asia, offering live streaming of the talks. They address a wide range of topics within the research and practice of science and culture, often through storytelling.^[6] The speakers are given a maximum of 18 minutes to present their ideas in the most innovative and engaging ways they can. Past presenters include Bill Clinton, Jane Goodall, Malcolm Gladwell, Al Gore, Gordon Brown, Richard Dawkins, Bill Gates, Bono, Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and many Nobel Prize winners.^[7] TED's current curator is the British former computer journalist and magazine publisher Chris Anderson.

Since June 2006,^[1] the talks have been offered for free viewing online, under Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs Creative Commons license, through TED.com.^[8] As of January 2014, over 1,600 talks are available free online.^[9] By January 2009 they had been viewed 50 million times. In June 2011, the viewing figure stood at more than 500 million,^[10] and on Tuesday November 13, 2012, TED Talks had been watched one billion times worldwide, reflecting a still growing global audience.^[11]

^{Now that you hopefully have a understanding of TEDTalks now let me define "Life Hacks"}

life·hack

/ˈlīfˌhak/

noun

informal

plural noun: lifehacks

1. a strategy or technique adopted in order to manage one's time and daily activities in a more efficient way.

   Now if you could manage your time and daily activities in a more efficient way wouldn't you want to? The answer should be yes of course!

   BOOM two definitions down none to go but you still don't know how to live 10 years longer... here is how I found out.

   
   

   While watching TEDTalks: Life Hack - Season 1 Episode 2 I was introduced to Jane McGonigal, PhD. 

   Jane is an unusually attractive
   

   

   (no offense) world-renowned designer of alternate reality games.   

    When Jane found herself bedridden and suicidal following a concussion which did not heal properly, she had a fascinating idea for how to get better. She dove into the scientific research and created the healing game, SuperBetter.

   
   

   SuperBetter helps you achieve your health goals — or recover from an illness or injury — by increasing your personal resilience. Resilience means staying curious, optimistic and motivated even in the face of the toughest challenges.
