TED(Going back to documentaries)

TED stands for Technology, entertainment, and design. It is a conference held in many places all over the world that brings in inspirational, intelligent, and generally successful people to come in a speak in front a live audience, but also recorded for the general public. Ranges of topics truly covers the spectrum from how to tie your shoes better, to inspirational speeches impersonated by modern voice actors, from social injustice, to how to live a better life TED goes all over the place. Their slogan is "Ideas worth Sharing" and they really do share some ideas.

Now a days TED conferences still happen, and they have since moved to radio, podcasts, and viral videos. TED sorts through millions of people and finds the ones that have something to say. They are truly interesting.

As one TED speak said having mentors in your life is one of the single best ways to obtain success in any endeavor. You find the people who have something to share and you listen and gain. He reads a book a day searching for the parts of the book that can tell him something so he can learn from the great mentors long dead. TED in essence is a general life mentor, it can give you information and thoughts and ideas from people all over the world so you can learn across all subjects.

I love these kinds of viral shows that can really provide some good information. If you like them to here is a list of some really good you tube channels for learning stuff.
