I don't know if any of you are into personal development and self help but I personally really like the talks on TED.

Here are a few of my favourites

Talks about looking at stress in a different way. We perceive a pounding heart, sweat etc as anxiety but you can flip it and use it to your advantage because your body's preparing you for the change and is pumping more air to your brain

Body language to assert power and dominance

In the animal kingdom, they show their dominance by taking up as much space as possible, puff their chest etc but it actually also influences the way you yourself think and perceive yourself as you talk

How to spot deciet in people you meet on a daily basis or cut the useless people out of your life

We're lied to 10-200 times on a daily basis including white lies, and strangers usually say 3 lies in the first 10 mins of meeting each other.

+1 for Dan Pink's motivation.
edit: just watched lie spotting - pretty good. I did not have sexual relations with that woman!
