Motivation is a stimulating feeling that we seek to inspire us, to continue pressing forward through hardships and to find meaning amidst chaos. What inspires us is sometimes found in the rarest of forms. It is sometimes in plain sight. It is often stumbled upon without intention, and it is sometimes graciously handed to us in the form of wise words, spoken by experienced and influential minds. For those who are feeling aimlessly lost in the journey to find themselves, those who are feeling stuck under the darkest clouds waiting for a ray of sunshine and those who simply need a dose of encouragement, heed these words of wisdom.

From some of the most gifted minds to the greatest influencers of our generation; from currently eminent leaders to those illustrious leaders who made a difference and left us too soon, here are some of the most motivational speeches.

10. JEFF BEZOZ ON A LIFE OF ACTION



Jeff Bezos, the founder and CEO of Amazon, delivers an inspiring and engaging graduation keynote speech at Princeton University. His speech focuses on the differences between gifts in life, and choices in life. The difference between being clever and kind is that cleverness is a gift, but being kind is a choice. Using the gifts people possess to act kindly towards others is something Bezos encourages the entire audience of students to strive for. He asks the students to think about whether or not they will choose a life of ease or a life of service and adventure; will they wilt under criticism of will they follow their convictions. Bezos graduation keynote speech is unique in that it hardly touches on his success at Amazon, and instead, demonstrates a very human side of him.
