The Power of One | John Paul DeJoria | TEDxLA
In this talk, John Paul DeJoria inspires individuals to stop imagining and start doing. There's strength in masses, but the masses are made up of individuals. Don't wait for the masses to take action, be confident in your own power and act on it. Adjust your mindset to know you have the ability to be the change in the world.
John Paul DeJoria, Co-Founder and Chairman of the Board, John Paul Mitchell Systems and The Patrón Spirits Company, is a first-generation American turned entrepreneur, philanthropist and pillar of the business community. He has struggled against the odds not only to achieve success, but to share his success with others, always living his motto: “Success unshared is failure.”
In 2011, John Paul signed Bill Gates and Warren Buffet’s “The Giving Pledge” as a formal promise to continue giving back. The same year, he established JP’s Peace, Love & Happiness Foundation as a hub for his charitable investments, which support the core values of his companies: sustainability, social responsibility and animal-friendliness.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
“Success unshared is failure” Best quote ever
For those who aren't aware, he's the second wealthiest person that has spoken on TED, and by far becoming the single richest one after facing Homelessness - TWICE He is a spirited guy as well, and very self-aware and generous. His net worth is over 3 billion.
Gates and Elon have both been on. So has Jeff. So, you are lying like he is ?
This man is my friend. His authenticity, humility and graciousness has impacted the lives of so many. JP lives by his words and the world is a better place because of those he inspires.
JP experienced traumatic events and rejection that would bury most in despair and depression. Against all odds, he became a billionaire. After 2:years of C-19 restrictions, shutdowns and lockdowns, my business is a fraction of what it was and nearing closure. JP's story inspires me to keep looking for opportunities for who knows what lies ahead. Thank you for posting 😊 💓
You may have heard..."Quitters never win, and WINNERS never quit!" You're bound to succeed! Especially if you step out in faith and give and share generously from the heart!
I never knew the story behind John Paul. These are the individuals that inspire and motivate me ❤ Thank you 🤗 Hope anyone that reads this comment will have an amazing Monday and always believe and be UNSTOPPABLE #TEAMUNSTOPPABLE ❤❤
Kyung Jones Wow, it's next Marvelous Monday❤❤❤
Kyung Jones happy friday!😁
Kyung Jones...... Thanks I wish you the best
2 years later, a monday
in my point of view, John just made the most valuable TED talk ever. a very successful but genuinely humble man. I put his words on my mind to lead my life. Thank you so much, John!
I love John Paul, this world needs more of this kind of billionaire.
Guys who convince their staff to do the work of eight people but only get paid for one? Yeah, the world needs more of that...
Raskolnikov32 Looks like someone doesn't get the message correctly.
Yes, he does. His schedule is unrelenting.
@@Raskolnikov32 how many other guys do that and lay off their employees? This man explained why he does it. He does it so they can adapt, know other jobs so when a crises happens he doesn’t have to lay anyone off. Guess what happened when covid-19 hit.... he didn’t lay off one single employee and also put $6,000,000 into his business covering the losses in business so he didn’t have to lay off one single employee. He also provides every employee with paid for lunches. This is a good person that we need more of. My last job the CEO worth $11.7 Billion closed the doors on not only me, but thousands of other people with families. Prior to that he made the choice to cut out 401Ks but hey at least he gave himself a nice bonus.
@@Raskolnikov32 It's more that it is one person's job in the first place. Giving people jobs that generate little value - so they can have jobs - is a large part of how the USSR fell.
GREAT TALK!!!!! He made me think of a few books that may go well with this TED Talk: Malcolm Gladwell - The Tipping Point Stephen Covey - The Speed of Trust Dan Harris - 10% Happier Bob Burg & John Mann- The Go Giver Reply if you think of any others! I love recommendations on books in this category 🤓
Maybe BEST TED TALK i have heard in a long time , hats off !!!
Most sincere Billionaire
Its how they become billionaires by not having to pay 2 other people and pay 1 guy half the price.
This guy is without doubt my kinda entrepreneur! What a seriously top dude. Love him!
I have gotten the privilege to meet him and have a picture taken with him. Im a hairstylist and love to sell Paul Mitchell Products!! hes so humble for being a billionaire.
Wish the sound was a bit louder. I had to strain my ears to ear JP talk! He is 1 amazing human being. if only more folks were like him. Wow, what a really wonderful world this would B!!
Hey man. This guy's GREAT! I saw him on another interview and he was telling about his climb to success with Paul Mitchell's products. Then at work one of my customers was a hairdressers and I told her about the interview. She said she really love Paul Mitchell hairspray but can't get it here. She's in business for herself so feels unsure about how much product to buy. She'd have to order from Albuquerque. So, Paul Mitchell guy, can you send some of your hair stuff to Farmington NM. Or at least a sales person to open up a market up here for our local hair people? THANX!
Doing what you should do without people watching you, is called "integrity"
A truly amazing man! I admire his life philosophy more than his business success.
He is so inspiring... thank you so much!
Gratitude always wins
It's too bad only ~20,000 people have seen this. Spread the message.
I love this man. Wow. We share a similar philosophy! I'm inspired!
love his philosophy. i wish there were more people like him.
What words of wisdom!!!!, He inspires me so much!
Immense gratitude thanks to y'all so much dearest all 🌹 Y'all such an inspiration 🥰 Appreciate y'all from the bottom of my heart 💖 Stay Blissful Eternally 🙏👼🌈
He is a philosopher....whatever he told gave us a complete different view on a lot of things in our life..... He didn't show off that he is a Billionaire.... He is just so so naturally motivating.....I would be extremely delighted to meet him for even 1 minute in my life.....smile guys!!
Bhai, kya hogaya hai ? He basically said nothing new in this talk. We dont even completely know who he is. Bas typical motivator ke tarah bol diya, and log khush hogaye
"More people are doing more for others today than ever in the history of mankind" +/- 6.30min in.
So true! Inspirational
Successful people are always looking for opportunities to help others. Unsuccessful people are always asking, "What's in for me ?" Brian Tracy
That is a testamonial of the power of law of attraction. He talked about frequency !
Thank you so much
i love this guy . he is so humble human being though being a billionaire.
John Paul " Be in the re-order business"

Love this man!
Yup, selling tequila and creating alcoholics worldwide.
Just be and say yes to what is and do everything like it was for you just living another life
Wow Awsome!!!
I like the eagle and oyster story at the end
Very powerful talk, this man went from homeless to billionaire
Very nice! 🌼💜
I love the Oyster and the Eagle metaphor.
Good man

The wisdom in this guy man. Amazing.
J.P. you are wonderful. Other than the making money part, you and I think quite alike. :)
Work hard, party harder

My boss tky the best.mentor
BE THE EAGLE
Looks like George Carlin went to business school!
😂😂😂
I'm an eagle but damn oysters sure taste good!
How this only has 100k views I’ll never know
Dejoria picked the right partner which was Paul Mitchell who was the hair stylist who created wash n wear hair styles during 70 s his customer base was celebrity's(excellent free marketing word of mouth)they created pm hair products used their celeb friends to try their products they became billionaires cause they built each other up by putting their talents to work for and both and created an empire I kinda broke it down to basics ibut this is how they became a successful business from my perspective
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Being "Green" is really green. As in Cash green. Recycling saves energy. Glass, Aluminum, steel, plastic etc save a ton of savings by recycling as opposed to virgin materials. We all should serve each other to earn and be served by other when we spend. If that logic is lost, economy stinks.
This former homeless man has a great public speaking ability..
He is the true story of the rags-to-riches.
He neglected to mention that catering to the vices and weaknesses of men and women will turn you into a billionaire. The desire for beauty and alcohol.
TED talks really are like church for secular people
What are the 4 P’s???
profit positivity planet people
If only employers actually cared about the work you do for them, instead they think they are entitled to making employees slaves. Feeling good doesn't pay my bills. Creditors don't accept my happiness.
Can't figure out the philosophy behind!
This correlates with data suggesting when QOL increases so does IQ.
nobody realises he's a billionaire haha
5 bill
Dude who the he’ll doesn’t know JP
bussines version of charles bukowski
Dobro si primjetio 😂😂
Above you 20/20 vacuum rak is so 1700's
Advice is great, BUT so many fail to realize, if you are not a known "workaholic", you will never be wealthy. Even then ,it guarantees nothing. If you don't work 6 -7 days a week, 12-18 hours a day WILLINGLY, you are not a workaholic.
How is this on 5k views on a channel as huge as Tedx Talks?
Tim Haercke there are people that don’t want others to know how powerful they are.
I would try billion ways and reaching one new billionaire
Great, alcohol
Utopian view of the world. 'If everybody collectively think about everybody else....' That is a big IF. Christians tried that for thousands of years with very little result. However if every school in the world would have compulsory meditation classes maybe in ten or twelve generations we could see some change. But that is also a big IF.
how abou the people drunk from this alchoholic drink , they will go miss up their family and economy again , his mindset as cool on the way up , but when it goes down its distructive
It's easy for a billionaire to do good deeds for others just to feel good and not worry about bills, rent, child support etc
Bruh he went homeless twice, grew up without a father and got dumped by his wife, who also stole everything he had when he was 22.
did he just propose more work less pay and someone will give you a raise? that is far from the truth and how things work
no thats just how you become "valuable". And being valuable brings a higher salary. No one will pay you ore than average if you arent more than average yourself.
Or, you can do your assignments aka work very well, and with enough experience you will get a promotion anyways. Its high value in actually doing your job well as well. But sure, if you can make the company more money then expected, or the very least filling the 'shoes' of the role and responsibilities that is above your paying grade anyways, that will surely give you a higher chance of getting that promotion sure, because you have already proven that you can do it. But, what I meant is that, you have no guaranties what so ever that it will turn out that way. You can have people above you that use you instead, or that do not realize your potential. The only solid way to do it is either to get documented proof you actually did bring the company alot of cash and how, or you get a good degree from the university and mix that with regular good work.
Take people who are doing their best vs people who are slacking, guess who is more often reaches success, guess who has a better chance of getting a raise. guess which business will be more efficient, one in which people waste time or one in which people do more work and waste less time. which business has better chance of being succesfull and paying better to their employees
What clothes do oysters wear? Hum.
There is only 1 vs of John that is of any value 3:16 the rest is obsolete
😇😇😇😇❤😇🥰🌸👏🏻👌
Are drunkards good for the US economy?
Musk and Bezos have nothing on this guy. Nothing.
