TEDx Talks's video: Blood Sweat and Kinship Declan Golden TEDxStJohnsPrep

It is everyone’s dream to become a better version of themselves. But there is a widespread misconception that the journey to a better, happier self is a solitary one. The trick to finding the best in yourself is by trying to bring it out in others. For Declan, Ultimate disc was the environment in which he thrived because it was the first time he felt loved based on his enthusiasm and drive to improve rather than his pure athleticism. Declan is a 16 year old junior at St. John’s Preparatory School. He competes for his school’s winter track and Ultimate Disc Teams. He also takes part in the Model UN club as well as his School’s MACD (Multi-cultural Affairs and Community Development) Student Advisory Council. 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
