I Treated My Instagram Like a Resume, Here’s What Happened | Mohammed Furqan | TEDxMJCET

Описание: In a world constantly demanding our attention, clarity often feels out of reach. Through personal experiences and thoughtful reflections, Furqan explores how purpose is not something we stumble upon overnight, but something we build slowly through awareness, intention, and courage.
This talk invites the audience to pause, reflect, and question the narratives they live by. It challenges the idea that purpose must be loud or grand, and instead highlights the quiet moments where meaning often begins.
A talk for anyone who feels lost, overwhelmed, or simply searching for direction in an increasingly noisy world.
He is a content creator, video editor, and public speaker who began his journey as a college speaking champion before navigating the uncertainties of engineering and the disruption of Covid. As the world moved online, he chose social media as his stage to connect with people. He started by creating and editing videos, refining his storytelling craft, and steadily building his presence on Instagram—using it early on as a living résumé to unlock real opportunities. He went on to work with two large creators and now focuses full-time on his creator persona. His milestones include earning a scholarship to the prestigious 5-month NAS Academy Creator Programme, securing a video editor role with Team Warikoo (WebVeda), winning a $2000 creator grant from Earth Alliance, and being featured by Amazon’s channels and on KTR’s official Instagram. 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
