In this refreshing talk, David Zweig brings attention to the "invisibles." It may seem that people are always searching for recognition of some sort. But there are those few who actually define success by their work going unnoticed. People like Jim Harding, who works in wayfinding, or Dennis Poon, who engineers skyscrapers, or Peter Stumpf, a piano technician. Listen in and find out why being seen does not always equate to success.

NOTE: Comments are disabled on this video. We made this difficult decision for the TED Archive because we believe that a well-moderated conversation allows for better commentary from more people and more viewpoints. Studies show that aggressive and hateful comments silence other commenters and drive them away; unfortunately, YouTube's comment moderation tools are simply not up to the task of allowing us to monitor comments on so many videos at once. (We'd love to see this change, YouTube.) So for now, if you'd like to comment on this talk, please use Facebook, Twitter or G+ to discuss with your networks.
