This is really a two-hour presentation I give to high school students, cut down to three minutes. And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED, seven years ago. And in the seat next to me was a high school student, a teenager, and she came from a really poor family. And she wanted to make something of her life, and she asked me a simple little question. She said, "What leads to success?" And I felt really badly, because I couldn't give her a good answer.
See on tegelikult 2-tunnine loeng õpilastele, mille surusin kokku 3 minutisse. Kõik sai alguse lennukis teel TEDile 7 aastat tagasi. Minu kõrval istus teismeline koolitüdruk, kes oli pärit väga vaesest perest. Ta tahtis oma elus midagi saavutada ning küsis minult väga lihtsa küsimuse. "Kuidas saada edukaks?" Tundsin end väga halvasti, sest ei osanud anda head vastust.
So I get off the plane, and I come to TED. And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people! So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids? So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later, and I'm going to tell you what really leads to success and makes TEDsters tick.
Tulin lennukist maha ja jõudsin TEDile. Ning mõtlesin, jessas, ma olen ruumis, mis on täis edukaid inimesi! Miks mitte küsida neilt, mis on aidanud neil edukaks saada, ja öelda see siis lastele edasi? Siin me oleme, pärast 7 aastat ja 500 intervjuud, ning ma räägin teile, mis teeb inimese edukaks ja paneb tedikad tegutsema.
And the first thing is passion. Freeman Thomas says, "I'm driven by my passion." TEDsters do it for love; they don't do it for money.
Esimene asi on vaimustus. Freeman Thomas ütles: "Mind ajendab see, kui ma millestki vaimustun." Tedikad teevad asju armastusest, mitte raha pärast.
Carol Coletta says, "I would pay someone to do what I do." And the interesting thing is: if you do it for love, the money comes anyway.
Carol Coletta ütles: "Olen nõus maksma, et saaksin teha seda mida teen." Ja huvitaval kombel, kui teha midagi armastusest, siis tuleb ka raha.
Work! Rupert Murdoch said to me, "It's all hard work. Nothing comes easily. But I have a lot of fun." Did he say fun? Rupert? Yes!
Töö! Rupert Murdoch ütles mulle: "Kõik on tulnud raske tööga. Midagi ei tule niisama. Kuid mul on olnud väga lõbus." Kas ta ütles "lõbus"? Rupert? Jah!
(Laughter)
Tedikad teevad mõnuga tööd. Ja nad töötavad kõvasti.
TEDsters do have fun working. And they work hard. I figured, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics.
Mõtlesin, et nad pole mitte tööhullud, vaid tööhullajad.
(Laughter)
Parim! Alex Garden ütles: "Et olla milleski edukas, tuleb süveneda
Good!
(Applause)
Alex Garden says, "To be successful, put your nose down in something and get damn good at it." There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice.
ning anda endast parim." Pole midagi müstilist, tuleb teha, teha, teha. Ja keskendumine. Norman Jewison ütles:
And it's focus. Norman Jewison said to me, "I think it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing."
"Arvan, et saladus peitub keskendumises ühele ainsale asjale." Tagantsundimine! David Gallo ütles: "Sunni end tagant!
And push! David Gallo says, "Push yourself. Physically, mentally, you've got to push, push, push." You've got to push through shyness and self-doubt.
Füüsiliselt, vaimselt, sa pead end sundima, sundima, sundima." Sundima end läbi ujedusest ja ebakindlusest. Goldie Hawn ütles: "Olen alati endas kahelnud.
Goldie Hawn says, "I always had self-doubts. I wasn't good enough; I wasn't smart enough. I didn't think I'd make it."
Ma polnud küllalt hea, küllalt tark. Ma ei uskunud, et saan hakkama."
Now it's not always easy to push yourself, and that's why they invented mothers.
Alati pole lihtne end tagant sundida, ja sellepärast nad leiutasid emad. (Naer)
(Laughter)
(Applause) Frank Gehry said to me, "My mother pushed me."
Frank Gehry... Frank Gehry ütles: "Mu ema sundis mind tagant."
(Laughter)
Teened! Sherwin Nuland ütles: "Pidasin eesõiguseks pakkuda teistele arstiteeneid."
Serve! Sherwin Nuland says, "It was a privilege to serve as a doctor."
Paljud lapsed on mulle öelnud, et nad tahavad saada miljonäriks.
A lot of kids want to be millionaires. The first thing I say is: "OK, well you can't serve yourself; you've got to serve others something of value. Because that's the way people really get rich."
Ja esimene asi, mis ma neile ütlen, on: "Okei, aga sa ei saa teha teeneid endale, sa pead pakkuma teistele midagi väärtuslikku. Sest tegelikult just nii saadakse rikkaks."
Ideas! TEDster Bill Gates says, "I had an idea: founding the first micro-computer software company." I'd say it was a pretty good idea. And there's no magic to creativity in coming up with ideas -- it's just doing some very simple things. And I give lots of evidence.
Ideed. Tedikas Bill Gates ütles: "Mul tekkis idee rajada esimene mikroarvutite tarkvara firma." Peab mainima, et see oli päris hea idee. Ja selles pole midagi müstilist, kuidas leida uusi ideid, see on vaid mõningate lihtsate asjade tegemine. Võin tuua palju näiteid.
Persist! Joe Kraus says, "Persistence is the number one reason for our success." You've got to persist through failure. You've got to persist through crap! Which of course means "Criticism, Rejection, Assholes and Pressure."
Järjekindlus. Joe Kraus ütles: "Järjekindlus on edukuse tähtsaim põhjus." Tuleb pidada vastu hoolimata ebaõnnestumistest, hoolimata RÄMPSust, mis tähendab "Räiget kriitikat, Äraütlemisi, Mõistmatust, Põmmpäid ja Survet". (Naer)
(Laughter)
Seega peamised... vastus küsimusele on lihtne:
So, the answer to this question is simple: Pay 4,000 bucks and come to TED.
"Maksa 4 000 dollarit ja tule TEDi."
(Laughter)
Või, kui see ei õnnestu, siis tee neid 8 asja - ja usu mind,
Or failing that, do the eight things -- and trust me, these are the big eight things that lead to success.
need on need 8 peamist asja, mis tagavad sulle edu.
Thank you TEDsters for all your interviews!
Suur tänu teile, tedikad, kõigi intervjuude eest!
(Applause)
