Saunder talks about how being being selfish is partly human nature, the idea to prioritize ourselves over other’s while in our hearts we really want to be “a little less selfish”. He creates a “rhetoric effect” using humor and anecdotes while being authentic and genuine. He also tells the audience that we should “always keep kindness into perspectives, even whilst trying to reach the zenith of success and ambition”. Saunder’s speech is unique, while also moving and powerful.



(Hope this helps!)
