Secrets of success in 8 words, 3 minutes | Richard St. John

Translator: Mailis Laos Reviewer: Kadri Salus

This is really a two-hour presentation I give to high school students,

See on tegelikult 2-tunnine loeng õpilastele,

cut down to three minutes.

mille surusin kokku 3 minutisse.

And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED,

Kõik sai alguse lennukis teel TEDile

seven years ago.

7 aastat tagasi.

And in the seat next to me was a high school student, a teenager,

Minu kõrval istus

teismeline koolitüdruk,

and she came from a really poor family.

kes oli pärit väga vaesest perest.

And she wanted to make something of her life,

Ta tahtis oma elus midagi saavutada

and she asked me a simple little question.

ning küsis minult väga lihtsa küsimuse.

"Kuidas saada edukaks?"

She said, "What leads to success?"

Tundsin end väga halvasti,

And I felt really badly,

because I couldn't give her a good answer.

sest ei osanud anda head vastust.

So I get off the plane, and I come to TED.

Tulin lennukist maha ja jõudsin TEDile.

And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people!

Ning mõtlesin, jessas, ma olen ruumis, mis on täis edukaid inimesi!

So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed,

Miks mitte küsida neilt, mis on aidanud neil edukaks saada,

and pass it on to kids?

ja öelda see siis lastele edasi?

So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later,

Siin me oleme, pärast 7 aastat ja 500 intervjuud,

and I'm going to tell you what really leads to success

ning ma räägin teile, mis teeb inimese edukaks

and makes TEDsters tick.

ja paneb tedikad tegutsema.

And the first thing is passion.

Esimene asi on vaimustus.

Freeman Thomas says, "I'm driven by my passion."

Freeman Thomas ütles: "Mind ajendab see, kui ma millestki vaimustun."

TEDsters do it for love; they don't do it for money.

Tedikad teevad asju armastusest, mitte raha pärast.

Carol Coletta says, "I would pay someone to do what I do."

Carol Coletta ütles: "Olen nõus maksma, et saaksin teha seda mida teen."

And the interesting thing is:

Ja huvitaval kombel,

if you do it for love, the money comes anyway.

kui teha midagi armastusest, siis tuleb ka raha.

Work! Rupert Murdoch said to me, "It's all hard work.

Töö! Rupert Murdoch ütles mulle: "Kõik on tulnud raske tööga.

Nothing comes easily. But I have a lot of fun."

Midagi ei tule niisama. Kuid mul on olnud väga lõbus."

Kas ta ütles "lõbus"? Rupert? Jah!

Did he say fun? Rupert? Yes!

(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)

Good!

Parim! Alex Garden ütles: "Et olla milleski edukas, tuleb süveneda

(Applause)

Alex Garden says, "To be successful, put your nose down in something

and get damn good at it."

ning anda endast parim."

There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice.

Pole midagi müstilist, tuleb teha, teha, teha.

And it's focus.

Ja keskendumine. Norman Jewison ütles:

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."

And push!

Tagantsundimine! David Gallo ütles: "Sunni end tagant!

David Gallo says, "Push yourself.

Physically, mentally, you've got to push, push, push."

Füüsiliselt, vaimselt, sa pead end sundima, sundima, sundima."

You've got to push through shyness and self-doubt.

Sundima end läbi ujedusest ja ebakindlusest.

Goldie Hawn says, "I always had self-doubts.

Goldie Hawn ütles: "Olen alati endas kahelnud.

I wasn't good enough; I wasn't smart enough.

Ma polnud küllalt hea, küllalt tark.

I didn't think I'd make it."

Ma ei uskunud, et saan hakkama."

Now it's not always easy to push yourself,

Alati pole lihtne end tagant sundida,

and that's why they invented mothers.

ja sellepärast nad leiutasid emad. (Naer)

(Laughter)

(Applause)

Frank Gehry said to me,

Frank Gehry... Frank Gehry ütles:

"My mother pushed me."

"Mu ema sundis mind tagant."

(Laughter)

Serve!

Teened! Sherwin Nuland ütles: "Pidasin eesõiguseks pakkuda teistele arstiteeneid."

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:

Ja esimene asi, mis ma neile ütlen, on:

"OK, well you can't serve yourself;

"Okei, aga sa ei saa teha teeneid endale,

you've got to serve others something of value.

sa pead pakkuma teistele midagi väärtuslikku.

Because that's the way people really get rich."

Sest tegelikult just nii saadakse rikkaks."

Ideas!

Ideed. Tedikas Bill Gates ütles: "Mul tekkis idee

TEDster Bill Gates says, "I had an idea:

founding the first micro-computer software company."

rajada esimene mikroarvutite tarkvara firma."

I'd say it was a pretty good idea.

Peab mainima, et see oli päris hea idee.

And there's no magic to creativity in coming up with ideas --

Ja selles pole midagi müstilist, kuidas leida uusi ideid,

it's just doing some very simple things.

see on vaid mõningate lihtsate asjade tegemine.

And I give lots of evidence.

Võin tuua palju näiteid.

Persist!

Järjekindlus. Joe Kraus ütles:

Joe Kraus says,

"Persistence is the number one reason for our success."

"Järjekindlus on edukuse tähtsaim põhjus."

You've got to persist through failure. You've got to persist through crap!

Tuleb pidada vastu hoolimata ebaõnnestumistest, hoolimata RÄMPSust,

Which of course means "Criticism, Rejection, Assholes and Pressure."

mis tähendab "Räiget kriitikat, Äraütlemisi, Mõistmatust, Põmmpäid ja Survet".

(Laughter)

(Naer)

So, the answer to this question is simple:

Seega peamised... vastus küsimusele on lihtne:

Pay 4,000 bucks and come to TED.

"Maksa 4 000 dollarit ja tule TEDi."

(Laughter)

Or failing that, do the eight things -- and trust me,

Või, kui see ei õnnestu, siis tee neid 8 asja - ja usu mind,

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)
