After a near death experience, Scott Jones realized life doesn’t need a long list of wishful events but rather more simplicity. Never do things you don’t want to do, ever. Recorded at TEDxVancouver at Rogers Arena on November 14, 2015. YouTube Tags: bucket list, fuck it list, identity, TED, TEDxVancouver, TEDxVancouver 2015, Vancouver, TEDx, Rogers Arena, Vancouver speakers, Vancouver conference, ideas worth spreading, great idea, TV host, popculture writer, entertainment critic and digitalmedia thought leader since the early 90’s, Scott Jones never could escape his ultimate destiny, to be a distinguished voice for geeks and gamers around the world. As the co-host of EP Daily, Scott has a long history of talking about everything cool in the world of video games and digital media. Scott was busy living a healthy, active, and (mostly) normal life when a one-in-a-million medical nightmare changed his world. A difficult and unusual stroke forced him to reconsider who he was and what his entire life should be about. After a long and arduous road to recovery, he emerged a changed person with a unique perspective and attitude about his identity. His story offers a candid view on how to get more out of life while doing less. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
