Maturity and How People Perceive You | Fahad AlMuammer | TEDxACHS

In this video, Fahad discusses the common questions he gets asked and how his mature behavior leads others to treat him like an adult. He reflects on the importance of personal growth and the impact of how we present ourselves to the world. Fahad is a 14-year-old that carries himself with poise and yet still enjoys playing soccer with his friends. A proud student at Al-Kifah School, Fahad has often had his age questioned. People frequently ask, "Are you sure you’re 14?" His level of maturity is so impressive that others wonder if he’s secretly a 30-year-old in disguise.Fahad is incredibly self-aware, carrying himself with the kind of maturity that’s rare for his age. Whether he’s studying, helping others, or simply offering a word of advice, Fahad always seems to know exactly what to say at the right moment.While he enjoys the simple joys of life—like sharing a good laugh with his friends—he also believes in taking time for self-reflection. He’s a young man with a heart full of wisdom and a future full of promise. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
