UPDATE: There was a problem with this post for the last few days but it has now been rectified. It seems that tables cannot be put into the database, even though it has been there for 4 months, I think another problem with the server.

For the last week or so I have been scouring the internet for free personal development videos, one of them I showed you yesterday; Steve Jobs. Well I have finally managed to get 22 great videos from some great personal development speakers and inspirational figures. I could have spent weeks doing this as I watched videos until my eyes were square.

you will probably notice there is a lack of female speakers in this. This was not deliberate there were not a lot of female speakers out there, the ratio was about 20:1, that’s 20 men to every 1 woman. Not a good statistic.

Anyway I have spent all day putting this together and I am proud to present 22 of the best personal development and inspirational figures of today.

Hi Steven,

Thanks for making such a great collection.

Actually i was searching Motivational videos for kids and i got this site, and its really helpful for all of us for growing professionally as well as personally.
I am looking for motivational video for kids which i am planning to show kids in India. I am a part of community called Aksharbharati.org who works for developing reading habits of kids basically in rural india.
It would be great if you could add one motivational video for school kids in this list.

Thanks,
Nilesh
