Why You Should Be Bored | Hrithik Ranganathan | TEDxOlathe North HS

In his speech, Hrithik talks about the need for boredom in today's world. Currently, people tend to constantly consume content, especially with short-form content gaining massive popularity, and most never take a moment to just simply think. Most don't allow themselves a moment to process their thoughts and encourage higher-level thinking. Those who allow themselves to have this moment may find their everyday lives changing. Hrithik hopes to inspire this change in those who will hear him during his TED talk. Hrithik is currently a junior at Olathe North High School and is part of the Medical Professions academy. At school, he is involved in many clubs such as DECA, in which he has qualified for and competed at the international competition, HOSA, in which he has also qualified for the international competition, & MAPS team, where he presented his research poster at the 2023 Discover BMB conference. Hrithik hopes to eventually become a doctor and continues to work toward that goal everyday. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
