Why I did it: Actually, I love TEDx, specially a site

for personal self growth. Sometimes these talks can

be very long and I may not have the time to listen or

that after I listen I want to print out a set of

summary slides for future reference.

I am hoping that this summary resource will be

useful to you and my base of 10,000+ and counting

readers in your journey of self growth.

Introduction

When I think about dreams, like many of

you, I think about this picture. I was eight

when I watched Neil Armstrong step off the

Lunar Module onto the surface of the Moon. I

had never seen anything like it before, and

I've never seen anything like it since.

We got to the Moon for one simple

reason: John Kennedy committed us to a

deadline.

Leonard Bernstein said two things are necessary for great

achievement: a plan and not quite enough time.

Page 9: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Moonshot …

Deadlines and commitments are the great and

fading lessons of Apollo. And they are what give

the word "moonshot" its meaning. And our world is

in desperate need of political leaders willing to set

bold deadlines for the achievement of daring

dreams on the scale of Apollo again.

When I think about dreams, I think about the drag

queens of LA and Stonewall and millions of other

people risking everything to come out when that

was really dangerous, and of this picture of the

White House lit up in rainbow colors, yes --

Page 10: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Celebrating…

America's gay and lesbian citizens' right to marry. It

is a picture that in my wildest dreams I could never

have imagined when I was 18 and figuring out that I

was gay and feeling estranged from my country and

my dreams because of it.

I think about this picture of my family that I never

dreamed I could ever have and of our children

holding this headline I never dreamed could ever

be printed about the Supreme Court ruling. We

need more of the courage of drag queens and

astronauts.

Page 11: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Dream in more dimension …

But I want to talk about the need for us to dream in more than one dimension, because

there was something about Apollo that I didn't know when I was 8, and something about

organizing that the rainbow colors over.

Thomas Merton, the Trappist monk, asked during the time of Apollo, "What can we gain by

sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from

ourselves?" And what can we gain by the right to marry if we are not able to cross the

acrimony and emotional distance that so often separates us from our love? And not just in

marriage. I have seen the most hurtful, destructive, tragic infighting in LGBT and AIDS and

breast cancer and non-profit activism, all in the name of love.

Page 12: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Go to the Moon …..

Well, that's just the price of progress, we say. You can

go to the Moon or you can have stability in your

family life. And we can't conceive of dreaming in both

dimensions at the same time. And we don't set the

bar much higher than stability when it comes to our

emotional life.

Which is why our technology for talking to one

another has gone vertical, our ability to listen and

understand one another has gone nowhere.

Page 13: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Work-life balance …

Now, I'm not suggesting simply the uninspiring idea of more work-life balance. What good is

it for me to spend more time with my kids at home if my mind is always somewhere else

while I'm doing it? I'm not even talking about mindfulness. Mindfulness is all of a sudden

becoming a tool for improving productivity.

I'm talking about dreaming as boldly in the dimension of our being as we do about industry

and technology. I'm talking about an audacious authenticity that allows us to cry with one

another, a heroic humility that allows us to remove our masks and be real. It is our inability

to be with one another, our fear of crying with one another, that gives rise to so many of the

problems we are frantically trying to solve in the first place, from Congressional gridlock to

economic inhumanity.

Page 14: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Here to dream …

Now, we're all here to dream, but maybe if we're

honest about it, each of us chasing our own

dream. You know, looking at the name tags to

see who can help me with my

dream, sometimes looking right through one

another's humanity. I can't be bothered with you

right now. I have an idea for saving the world.

Right?

Page 15: The dream we haven't dared to dream

For a few days…..

For tens of thousands of people, we created these

worlds that everybody said were the way they wish

the world could always be. What if we experimented

with creating that kind of world these next few

days? And instead of going up to someone and

asking them, "What do you do?" ask them, "So what

are your dreams?" or "What are your broken

dreams?" You know, "TED." Tend to Each other's

Dreams.

Page 16: The dream we haven't dared to dream

Want to build a tree house…

Maybe it's "I want to stay sober" or "I want to build a tree house with my kid." You know,

instead of going up to the person everybody wants to meet, go up to the person who is all

alone and ask them if they want to grab a cup of coffee.

I think what we fear most is that we will be denied the opportunity to fulfill our true

potential, that we are born to dream and we might die without ever having the chance.

Imagine living in a world where we simply recognize that deep, existential fear in one

another and love one another boldly because we know that to be human is to live with that

fear. It's time for us to dream in multiple dimensions simultaneously, and somewhere that

transcends all of the wondrous things we can and will and must do lies the domain of all the

unbelievable things we could be.

Page 17: The dream we haven't dared to dream

It's time we set foot into that dimension and

came out about the fact that we have dreams

there, too. If the Moon could dream, I think

that would be its dream for us. It's an honor to

be with you.
