TEDxEvansStreet 2023 - POLARITY
TEDxEvansStreet is an all-day independently organized TED event dedicated to spreading ideas by blending innovation, insight, and storytelling. The experience collectively ignites the Florence community’s commitment to lifelong learning and spark positive change.
The 2023 event theme is “Polarity.” The Oxford Dictionary defines polarity as being “the state of having two opposite or contradictory tendencies, opinions, or aspects.” Things that appear as opposites are in fact only two extremes of the same thing. As one of the 7 Universal Laws, the Law of Polarity decrees everything in the universe has two sides. In fact, only two extremes of the same thing are simply varying degrees of the same thing. One steps into power through perception—to see both sides of a person, situation or circumstance. Negative or positive, hot or cold, love or hate, polarity is determined by how one chooses to think – choices, not situations or circumstances, will create the desired outcome. Is there an end of the pole for your thinking?

What is TEDx?
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TED has created a program called TEDx. TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. Our event is called TEDxEvansStreet, where x = independently organized TED event. At our TEDxEvansStreet event, TEDTalks video and live speakers will combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events, including ours, are self-organized. To read more, visit www.ted.com/tedx.
