Everyone wants to become a better version of themselves than they were yesterday. Digital content makes it easier than ever to learn new ways to stretch yourself to your full potential. Although these TED talks vary in topic, there is something for everyone who wants to improve him or herself, whether it be in his or her work life, social life or personal life.

1. For someone who wants to be a dependable leader

Simon Sinek incorporates history and psychology to assert certain methods all good leaders share, such as taking the risks first, eating last and sacrificing so their people can feel safe. These practices help leaders gain trust from their group, which drives the organization as a whole to develop on a higher level.

2. For someone who wants to be a skilled communicator

Julian Treasure, a sound expert, shares the practices of eloquent speakers by sharing what not to speak about, ways to improve one's speaking style and provides practice exercises to develop one's speaking skills. These techniques are valuable in professional settings – such as a job interview or pitch – as well as social settings, like a conversation with friends or family.

3. For someone who wants to be an efficient student

Learning isn't just about absorbing information quickly; it's also about the quality and quantity of retention. Barbara Oakley breaks down the process of learning by the function of our brains, tactics to cope with procrastination and strategies for developing better study habits.

4. For someone who wants to be a well-rounded individual

Josh Kaufman's TED talk allows people with many passions to attempt their creative pursuits and learn new things. Limiting a passion to just 20 hours prevents the anxiety of becoming an "expert" in any given field, yet it provides enough time to familiarize oneself the basic concepts of a new skill, giving a person a chance to expand their knowledge.

5. For someone who wants to become a renowned innovator

Adam Grant explains how original thinkers think and act differently according to the status quo. By becoming an "original" – or someone who has original ideas and willing to share them with the world – one can revolutionize an industry and influence a new generation of originals to come.
