What if what we think is real is just how we see things? This talk explores how our minds create our reality through perception, not the other way around.Using the practical LENS, VIEW, and RISE Frameworks, we discover that perceptions aren't fixed—they can be designed and changed. By understanding how we build our views of the world, we gain the power to shift not only our own outlook but also influence how others see things.This knowledge gives us a superpower: the ability to transform experiences by changing viewpoints, proving that perception is a tool we can learn to use, not a truth we must accept.Keywords:

- 4:59The Power of Embracing: Turning Defeat into Lessons | Anya Bijaphala | TEDxYouth@RegentsSchoolFailure isn’t the end of the story—it’s just the start of a better plot twist. Anya is here to show us how defeat can actually be character development. Anya is a 12-year old student in year 7 studying at Regent's International School Bangkok. Being raised in Bangkok with a Thai family who highly values resilience and personal development, Anya developed the virtues of confidence and determination. From an early age, her perseverance and effort were rewarded. She was offered opportunities to enhance her interests of public speaking and leadership from as young as the age of 5, such as: securing the role of the primary head girl in year 6. Her other passions include various sports such as basketball and football. She trains hard for her preferred sports and consistently strives for enhancements in her performance. Anya aims for improvement in everything she does, recognising that even in the mistakes she makes there are opportunities to learn; hence she believes in the saying “It’s not what happens to you, but how you choose to respond.” This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
