MY PERSPECTIVE ON NOT RECEIVING the FELLOWSHIP
Some things don’t work out because they are not the right time or in this case, not the best next step. Receiving the fellowship would have meant travelling 12 times a year and even though fellowship costs are covered by TED, the commitment would have meant additional expenses not covered, plus a lot of time away that would not have been good given current living arrangements. Plus, since the school video production contest is going to be much bigger than initially planned, the fellowship would have hampered rolling out the contest, writing the next book, and all the work necessary to grow and expand as now targeted. Phew! Of course, I am still preparing to do my TED talk at some point, starting with the new short video speech I am currently working on.
