Kırşehir Ahi Evran University’s Social Contribution Coordination Office invited author Bülent Gardiyanoğlu to give a talk supporting students’ personal development. He gave a talk titled “Make Your Voice Heard in the World – You Can Do It Too.” The event took place at the Ahi Evran Congress and Culture Center on September 25, 2025. Deputy Governor İsmail Çetinkaya, Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Musa Özata, academic and administrative staff, and many students attended the event.
The opening speech of the event was delivered by Social Contribution Coordinator Bayram Koyuncu. He expressed his happiness at coming together with the youth, whom he described as the guarantee of our future. Koyuncu stated that the office will continue to organize such events to support students’ personal development.
Speaking at the event, author Bülent Gardiyanoğlu said he was very pleased to meet students at Kırşehir Ahi Evran University. He began his speech by saying, “We should approach our problems with love. A person should first stop criticizing themselves and others, and instead choose to love themselves.”
He continued, “Many people feel a hidden sense of worthlessness. Maybe this belief—that they deserve nothing—was instilled in them during childhood. If, as adults, the ego takes control, these old patterns will remain as obstacles, even if they are forgotten. Such people will always see themselves as unlucky, both materially and spiritually. Everyone has a purpose in the divine order. The real question is: ‘Isn’t it enough to have suffered so much?’ The moment you say ‘enough,’ you initiate your own transformation and step into a new life.”
In the final part of the talk, Bülent Gardiyanoğlu said, “We all live on this planet and we are all energy magnets. Whatever we think about, we attract into our lives. At first, this idea may be uncomfortable to hear, but unfortunately, it’s true. When I realized this in my own life, I tried different approaches within myself. Eventually, I think I found the quickest and most practical way to make my wishes come true. Now, whenever I make a wish, I say, ‘May it be for my own good and for the good of the whole.’ Because this intention is in harmony with the universal whole, my wish comes true much faster. There is a big difference between achieving success individually and achieving it with the support and harmony of the whole. We are all one, and every particle in the universe is interconnected.” With these words, he concluded his speech by emphasizing that being one with the universe is a magical power.
At the end of the talk, the author led participants through some simple breathing exercises. The event concluded with the presentation of a certificate of appreciation to Bülent Gardiyanoğlu.
