Smash fear, learn anything | Tim Ferriss

Translator: Alo-Jarmo Küppas Reviewer: Aari Lemmik

Siin on 2-aastane Tim Ferriss aastal 1979

This is Tim Ferriss circa 1979 A.D. Age two.

Poosi järgi vaadates olin väga enesekindel poiss

ja seda mitte ilmaasjata.

You can tell by the power squat, I was a very confident boy --

Mul oli nunnu komme oodata õhtuni,

and not without reason.

kui ema-isa raskest tööpäevast puhates

I had a very charming routine at the time,

which was to wait until late in the evening

ristsõnu lahendasid ja telekat vaatasid.

when my parents were decompressing from a hard day's work,

Tormasin elutuppa, kargasin diivani peale

doing their crossword puzzles, watching television.

kiskusin diivanipadjad lahti ja loopisin maha,

I would run into the living room, jump up on the couch,

röögatasin ja jooksin ära,

sest ma olin supermees Hämmastav Hulk.

rip the cushions off, throw them on the floor,

scream at the top of my lungs and run out

(Naer)

Sarnasus on ju täiesti ilmne.

because I was the Incredible Hulk.

Ja sedasi tegin ma päris pikalt.

(Laughter)

Obviously, you see the resemblance.

Seitsmesena läksin suvelaagrisse.

And this routine went on for some time.

Mu vanemad vajasid rahu.

When I was seven I went to summer camp.

Iga päev kl 12 mindi järve äärde,

My parents found it necessary for peace of mind.

kus oli ujuv sadamasild,

And at noon each day

the campers would go to a pond,

mille pealt sai vette hüpata.

where they had floating docks.

Ma olin enneaegne ja väikest kasvu.

You could jump off the end into the deep end.

Sündimisel vajus kokku mu vasak kops,

I was born premature. I was always very small.

vee peal püsimisega on mul alati raskusi olnud.

My left lung had collapsed when I was born.

Kartsin vett, kuigi ujumas vahel käisin.

And I've always had buoyancy problems.

So water was something that scared me to begin with.

Ühel päeval hüppasid ja sukeldusid lapsed läbi suurte ujumisrõngaste,

But I would go in on occasion.

And on one particular day,

see paistis päris lahe.

the campers were jumping through inner tubes,

Hüppasingi läbi ujumisrõnga, et sukelduda,

They were diving through inner tubes. And I thought this would be great fun.

aga laagri suurim kiusaja haaras mu jalgadest.

So I dove through the inner tube,

Ma proovisin pinnale tõusta, et hingata,

and the bully of the camp grabbed my ankles.

aga põrkasin seljaga vastu ujumisrõngast.

And I tried to come up for air,

Mul oli tunne, et siia ma suren.

and my lower back hit the bottom of the inner tube.

Õnneks tuli üks kasvataja appi ja lahutas meid.

And I went wild eyed and thought I was going to die.

Sellest hetkest alates kartsin ujuda.

A camp counselor fortunately came over and separated us.

From that point onward I was terrified of swimming.

Ma ei saanud sellest enam üle.

See, et ma ei suuda ujuda,

That is something that I did not get over.

on minu jaoks alati olnud kohutavalt piinlik ja alandav.

My inability to swim has been

one of my greatest humiliations and embarrassments.

Sain aru, et ma ei olegi Võimas Hulk.

Aga sellel lool on õnnelik lõpp.

That is when I realized that I was not the Incredible Hulk.

31-aastasena - olen praegu nii vana -

But there is a happy ending to this story.

augustis võtsin ujumise uuesti ette

At age 31 -- that's my age now --

ja tegelesin selle kõikide aspektidega.

in August I took two weeks to re-examine swimming,

Kui alguses ujusin ühe ringi -

and question all the of the obvious aspects of swimming.

umbes 18 meetrit nagu uppuv ahv,

pulss oli 200 lööki minutis, ise mõõtsin,

And went from swimming one lap --

so 20 yards -- like a drowning monkey,

siis lõpuks ujusin Montauki Long Islandil,

at about 200 beats per minute heart rate --

I measured it --

lähedal kohale, kus ma üles kasvasin.

to going to Montauk on Long Island,

Hüppasin ookeani ja ujusin lainetes ühe kilomeetri

close to where I grew up,

ja tundsin end paremini kui enne vette minekut.

and jumping into the ocean and swimming one kilometer in open water,

Tulin veest välja, jalas Speedod, euroopa stiilis ujukad,

getting out and feeling better than when I went in.

And I came out,

tundsin end nagu Võimas Hulk.

in my Speedos, European style,

Ja samamoodi tahan,

et te kõik mu esinemise lõppedes tunneksite end nagu Võimas Hulk.

feeling like the Incredible Hulk.

And that's what I want everyone in here to feel like,

Tahan, et te tunneksite, et teist võib saada

the Incredible Hulk, at the end of this presentation.

suurepärane pikamaa-ujuja,

More specifically, I want you to feel like you're capable

of becoming an excellent long-distance swimmer,

tipptasemel võõrkeelte õppija

ja tangovirtuoos.

(Naer)

a world-class language learner,

Tahaksin teiega oma kunsti jagada.

and a tango champion.

Selleks kunstiks on hirmutavate asjade dekonstrueerimine.

And I would like to share my art.

If I have an art, it's deconstructing things

Läheme edasi.

Ujumine. Põhialused.

that really scare the living hell out of me.

Põhialused on väga olulised.

So, moving onward.

Parimate tulemuste saavutamist takistavad sageli

Swimming, first principles.

First principles, this is very important.

valed arusaamad ja põhjendamatud eeldused.

I find that the best results in life

are often held back by false constructs and untested assumptions.

Pööre ujumises tuli, kui mu sõber lubas,

et ta ei tarbi terve aasta ühtegi stimulanti -

And the turnaround in swimming came

juues tavaliselt 6 topelt-espressot päevas

when a friend of mine said, "I will go a year without any stimulants" --

kui ujun ära 1 km ujumisvõistluse.

this is a six-double-espresso-per-day type of guy --

Stopper hakkas tiksuma.

"if you can complete a one kilometer open water race."

Ma hakkasin otsima triatleete,

sest mulle tundus, et päris ujujad ei oska õpetada seda, mida nad teevad.

So the clock started ticking.

I started seeking out triathletes

because I found that lifelong swimmers often couldn't teach what they did.

Proovisin ujumislaudu.

Mu jalad käisid läbi vee nagu noad, ma ei liikunud üldse edasi.

I tried kickboards.

Tundsin end täiesti saamatuna.

My feet would slice through the water like razors,

Katsetasin kõiki abivahendeid,

I wouldn't even move. I would leave demoralized, staring at my feet.

isegi võtsin tunde olümpialastelt, midagi ei aidanud.

Hand paddles, everything.

Aga siis tuli Chris Sacca, nüüdseks minu hea sõber,

Even did lessons with Olympians -- nothing helped.

kes on lõpetanud Ironmani võistluse 40C kuumuses,

And then Chris Sacca, who is now a dear friend mine,

ütles: “Ma tean vastust Sinu palvetele."

had completed an Iron Man with 103 degree temperature,

ja näitas mulle Terry Laughlini raamatut ,

said, "I have the answer to your prayers."

kes on täiusliku ujumise teooria autor

And he introduced me to

ja mul tekkis huvi biomehhaanika vastu.

the work of a man named Terry Laughlin

who is the founder of Total Immersion Swimming.

Siin on uued reeglid ujuma õppimiseks

That set me on the road to examining biomechanics.

kui seni olete ujumist kartnud või pole see hästi välja tulnud.

So here are the new rules of swimming,

Esiteks, ärge rapsige jalgadega, kuigi see näib vältimatu.

if any of you are afraid of swimming, or not good at it.

Selgus, et edasiliikumine ei ole probleem.

The first is, forget about kicking. Very counterintuitive.

Jalgadega sahmimine ei lahenda probleemi,

So it turns out that propulsion isn't really the problem.

sest keskmine ujuja suunab vaid 3% oma energiast edasiliikumisse

Kicking harder doesn't solve the problem

because the average swimmer only transfers about three percent

Võti on hüdrodünaamikas.

of their energy expenditure into forward motion.

Tegelikult tuleks keskenduda sellele

et lasta oma alakehal vabalt ülakeha järel liuelda,

The problem is hydrodynamics.

nagu väike auto, mis maanteel sõidab suure auto tuules.

So what you want to focus on instead

is allowing your lower body to draft behind your upper body,

Selleks tuleb keha hoida horisontaalses asendis.

much like a small car behind a big car on the highway.

Seda saab teha ainult siis, kui ujuja keha ei ole vee peal.

And you do that by maintaining a horizontal body position.

Keha on veest tihedam.

The only way you can do that

95 protsenti kehast on ujudes juba loomulikult vee all.

is to not swim on top of the water.

The body is denser than water. 95 percent of it would be,

Seega - reegel number kolm -

krooli ujudes ärge tehke seda kõhuli

at least, submerged naturally.

So you end up, number three,

nagu paljud teevad, üritades end pinnal hoida.

not swimming, in the case of freestyle,

Tuleb hoopis end pöörata sujuvalt paremalt küljelt vasakule küljele

on your stomach, as many people think, reaching on top of the water.

But actually rotating from streamlined right

proovides võimalikult kaua säilitada esialgset kehaasendit.

to streamlined left,

Vaatame mõnda näidet.

maintaining that fuselage position as long as possible.

See on Terry.

Näete, et ta sirutab parema käe

So let's look at some examples. This is Terry.

pikalt ette peast madalamal.

And you can see that he's extending his right arm

Terve tema keha on vee all.

below his head and far in front.

Käsi on sirutatud peast madalamal.

And so his entire body really is underwater.

Pea on hoitud selgrooga samal joonel,

The arm is extended below the head.

nii saab kasutada vee jõudu hoidmaks jalgu pinnal -

The head is held in line with the spine,

väga oluline eriti neile, kelle alakeha on raskem.

so that you use strategic water pressure to raise your legs up --

Siin näete üht tõmmet.

very important, especially for people with lower body fat.

Löök ei ole järsk, pigem väike jõnks.

Here is an example of the stroke.

Siin on näha vasak sirutus.

So you don't kick. But you do use a small flick.

Näete ka tema vasakut jalga.

Väike jõnks, mille ainuke eesmärk on,

You can see this is the left extension.

et saaks puusi vaheldumisi pöörata.

Then you see his left leg.

Small flick, and the only purpose of that

Parema käe vette panemisel

ei siruta ta kätt ette, et vett krahmata,

is to rotate his hips so he can get to the opposite side.

Käsi läheb vette 45 kraadise nurga all

And the entry point for his right hand -- notice this,

he's not reaching in front and catching the water.

Rather, he is entering the water

ja kogu liikumine on sujuv, väga oluline.

at a 45-degree angle with his forearm,

and then propelling himself by streamlining -- very important.

Ülemisel pildil on vale asend,

nagu enamus treenereid õpetab.

See pole nende süü.

Incorrect, above, which is what almost every swimming coach will teach you.

Kohe jõuan kaudse ja otsese võrdlemiseni.

Not their fault, honestly.

Alumisel pildil on asend,

And I'll get to implicit versus explicit in a moment.

mis aitaks saavutada minuga sarnase tulemuse

ehk alustada 18 meetri ujumist 21 tõmbega

Below is what most swimmers

will find enables them to do what I did,

ja jõuda siis 11 tõmbeni, seda vaid kahe treeninguga,

which is going from 21 strokes per 20-yard length

ilma treeneri või video abita.

to 11 strokes

Nüüd ma armastan ujumist, teeksin seda kogu aeg.

in two workouts with no coach, no video monitoring.

Lähen pärast ujuma, kes tahab, võib kaasa tulla.

And now I love swimming. I can't wait to go swimming.

Viimane asi, hingamine.

I'll be doing a swimming lesson later, for myself, if anyone wants to join me.

Paljudel on ujudes just see probleem.

Krooli ujudes on lihtsaim lahendus

Last thing, breathing. A problem a lot of us have, certainly, when you're swimming.

pöörata kogu keha

In freestyle, easiest way to remedy this is

ja vaadata seda kätt, mis tõuseb veest.

to turn with body roll,

See on juba suureks abiks.

and just to look at your recovery hand as it enters the water.

Nii lihtne see ongi.

And that will get you very far.

Kõik, mida on vaja osata.

Keeled. Materjal vs. Meetod

That's it. That's really all you need to know.

Sarnaselt paljudega sain kiiresti aru,

et ma olen väga vilets keeleõppija.

Languages. Material versus method.

I, like many people, came to the conclusion

Kannatasin ära kooli hispaania keele tunnid,

that I was terrible at languages.

minu keeleoskus oli tasemel “Kus on WC?"

I suffered through Spanish for junior high, first year of high school,

Sageli ei saanud ma aru, mida vastati.

and the sum total of my knowledge

was pretty much, "Donde esta el bano?"

Mage lugu.

And I wouldn't even catch the response. A sad state of affairs.

Gümnaasiumis vahetasin aga kooli ja sain valida uute keelte vahel.

Then I transferred to a different school sophomore year, and

Enamik sõpru valis jaapani keele.

Mul polnud midagi enda piinamise vastu, valisin sama.

I had a choice of other languages. Most of my friends were taking Japanese.

Kuue kuu pärast avanes võimalus Jaapanisse minna.

So I thought why not punish myself? I'll do Japanese.

Õpetajad kinnitasid, et mul pole põhjust muretseda.

Six months later I had the chance to go to Japan.

Iga päev on jaapani keele tunnid, saad kenasti hakkama.

My teachers assured me, they said, "Don't worry.

Minu esimesest välisreisist pidi saama suurepärane kogemus.

You'll have Japanese language classes every day to help you cope.

Mu vanemad julgustasid mind igati ja nii läksingi.

It will be an amazing experience." My first overseas experience in fact.

Jõudsin Tokiosse. Võimas.

So my parents encouraged me to do it. I left.

Uskumatu, et olingi teisel pool maakera.

I arrived in Tokyo. Amazing.

Tutvusin mind võõrustava perekonnaga,

I couldn't believe I was on the other side of the world.

kõik läks päris kenasti.

I met my host family. Things went quite well I think,

Esimesel õhtul, enne esimest koolipäeva,

all things considered.

ütlesin oma asendusemale, viisakalt,

My first evening, before my first day of school,

"Palun äratage mind kell 8.00."

Ehk 私は目を覚ます

I said to my mother, very politely,

Kuid mina ei öelnud mitte 私は目を覚ます, vaid hoopis 私をレイプ. Suht sama.

"Please wake me up at eight a.m."

So, (Japanese)

Tegelikult olin öelnud: "Palun vägistage mind kell 8.00."

But I didn't say (Japanese). I said, (Japanese). Pretty close.

(Naer)

But I said, "Please rape me at eight a.m."

Suuremas kimbatuses jaapanlannat annab ette kujutada.

(Laughter)

(Naer)

You've never seen a more confused Japanese woman.

Jõudsin kooli

(Laughter)

ja õpetaja tuli minu juurde, andis mulle paberi.

I walked in to school.

Ma ei saanud midagi aru, need oleks nagu olnud hieroglüüfid,

And a teacher came up to me and handed me a piece of paper.

sest see oli kirjutatud kanji tähestikus,

I couldn't read any of it -- hieroglyphics, it could have been --

hiina päritolu jaapani piltkiri.

Ma küsisin, et mis seal kirjas on.

because it was Kanji,

Ja tema vastas: "Ahh, okei, okei,

Chinese characters adapted into the Japanese language.

siin on ajalugu, ehh, arvutamine,

Asked him what this said.

And he goes, "Ahh, okay okay,

traditsiooniline jaapani keel."

eehto, World History, ehh, Calculus,

Arusaamine jõudis minuni lainetena,

Traditional Japanese." And so on.

et midagi on tõlkes kaduma läinud.

And so it came to me in waves.

Jaapani keele tunnid ei olnud mõeldud minu aitamiseks.

There had been something lost in translation.

Vaid need olid täiesti tavalised keskkooli jaapani keele tunnid,

The Japanese classes were not Japanese instruction classes, per se.

mis olid mõeldud kooli 4999 õpilasele, kes polnud ameeriklased vaid jaapanlased.

They were the normal high school curriculum for Japanese students --

Minu reaktsioon oli umbes selline.

the other 4,999 students in the school, who were Japanese, besides the American.

(Naer)

Hakkasin paaniliselt otsima tõhusat keeleõppe meetodit.

And that's pretty much my response.

(Laughter)

And that set me on this panic driven search for the perfect language method.

Proovisin kõike.

Läksin Kinokuniya raamatupoodi.

Proovisin kõiki raamatuid, kõiki CD-sid.

I tried everything. I went to Kinokuniya.

Midagi ei aidanud, kuni avastasin selle.

I tried every possible book, every possible CD.

See on Joyo Kanji.

Nothing worked until I found this.

Kanji tähestiku juhend ehk plakat 1945 enimkasutatava märgiga,

This is the Joyo Kanji. This is a Tablet rather,

mille koostas Jaapani Haridusministeerium 1981. aastal.

or a poster of the 1,945 common-use characters

Paljud Jaapani väljaanded kasutavad ainult neid märke,

as determined by the Ministry of Education in 1981.

et edendada kirjaoskust, osadel väljaannetel on see kohustuslik.

Many of the publications in Japan limit themselves to these characters,

Sellest sai minu Püha Graal, minu Rosetta kivi.

to facilitate literacy -- some are required to.

Kohe kui sellele materjalile keskendusin, hakkas asi edenema.

And this became my Holy Grail, my Rosetta Stone.

As soon as I focused on this material,

Varsti suutsin lugeda Asahi Shinbut, Asahi ajalehte,

I took off.

6 kuud hiljem - ehk kokku 11 kuud hiljem -

I ended up being able to read Asahi Shinbu, Asahi newspaper,

jõudsin algtasemelt edasijõudnute tasemele.

about six months later -- so a total of 11 months later --

16-aastaselt hakkasin USA-s tõlketöid tegema.

and went from Japanese I to Japanese VI.

Olen jätkanud sarnase lähenemisega

Ended up doing translation work at age 16 when I returned to the U.S.,

and have continued to apply this material

veel kümmekonna keele õppimist.

Kui alguses olin keelte õppimises nõrk,

over method approach to close to a dozen languages now.

siis nüüd suudan rääkida, lugeda ja kirjutada viies-kuues keeles.

Someone who was terrible at languages,

and at any given time, speak, read and write five or six.

Kogu asja tuum on aga selles,

et sageli on olulisem see, MIDA teha

This brings us to the point,

mitte KUIDAS seda teha.

which is, it's oftentimes what you do,

Ja selles seisnebki efektiivsus - teha õigeid asju ja olla tõhus

not how you do it, that is the determining factor.

teha asju hästi, isegi kui nad pole teab mis olulised.

This is the difference between being effective -- doing the right things --

Seda võib kasutada ka grammatikas.

and being efficient -- doing things well whether or not they're important.

Katsetuste käigus jõudsin nende kuue lauseni.

You can also do this with grammar.

Saate keele dekonstrueerida,

I came up with these six sentences after much experimentation.

kui need laused mineviku, oleviku ja tuleviku vormides ära tõlkida.

Having a native speaker allow you to deconstruct their grammar,

Nii on näha alus, öeldis ja sihitis,

by translating these sentences into past, present, future,

isikulised ja umbisikulised tegusõnad, sugu jne.

will show you subject, object, verb,

Seejärel, kui on soovi,

placement of indirect, direct objects, gender and so forth.

saab omandada mitu keelt, ilma, et nad üksteist segaksid.

From that point, you can then, if you want to,

Saame sellest pärast veel rääkida, kui kellelegi huvi on.

acquire multiple languages, alternate them so there is no interference.

Ja nüüd ma armastan keeli.

We can talk about that if anyone in interested.

Peotants. Otsene vs. kaudne.

And now I love languages.

Väga oluline.

Mind vaadates võiks ehk arvata, et ma olen peotantsija.

So ballroom dancing, implicit versus explicit --

very important.

Kuid te eksiksite.

You might look at me and say, "That guy must be a ballroom dancer."

Sest mu keha on enamike tegevuste jaoks halvasti disainitud -

But no, you'd be wrong

erandiks on ehk raskete kivide tassimine.

because my body is very poorly designed for most things --

Olin kunagi palju suurem, palju lihaselisem.

pretty well designed for lifting heavy rocks perhaps.

Kõndisin umbes nii nagu orangutan või nagu Võimas Hulk.

I used to be much bigger, much more muscular.

And so I ended up walking like this.

I looked a lot like an orangutan, our close cousins, or the Incredible Hulk.

Peotantsu jaoks mitte just kõige parem.

Sattusin 2005. aastal Argentiinasse,

Not very good for ballroom dancing.

mõtlesin, et vaataks ühte tangotrenni,

I found myself in Argentina in 2005,

ise osaleda ei plaaninud.

Läksin sisse, maksin oma 10 peesot,

decided to watch a tango class -- had no intention of participating.

kohal oli 10 naist ja 2 meest. Muidu päris hea suhe.

Went in, paid my ten pesos,

Õpetaja ütles, et pead ka osalema.

walked up -- 10 women two guys, usually a good ratio.

Mind tabas kabuhirm.

The instructor says, "You are participating."

(Naer)

Olin hirmust kange, sest ülikoolis olin peotantsu proovinud,

Immediately: death sweat.

astusin tüdruku varvastele.

(Laughter)

Fight-or-flight fear sweat, because I tried ballroom dancing in college --

Ta karjatas.

Muretsesin, et mida ta minust nüüd mõtleb

stepped on the girl's foot with my heel. She screamed.

ja see rikkus kogu asja ära,

I was so concerned with her perception of what I was doing,

ma ei tahtnud enam kunagi tantsida.

that it exploded in my face,

Õpetaja tuli minu juurde ja alustas:

never to return to the ballroom dancing club.

"Selge, hakka pihta, võta minust kinni"

She comes up, and this was her approach, the teacher.

Imekaunis abiõpetaja.

Ta oli pahane, et pidi minu pärast edasijõudnute juurest ära tulema.

"Okay, come on, grab me."

Gorgeous assistant instructor.

Andsin oma parima.

Raske oli leida kohta, kuhu käsi panna.

She was very pissed off that I had pulled her from her advanced practice.

Ta tõmbus minust eemale,

So I did my best. I didn't know where to put my hands.

pani käed puusa ja karjus üle saali:

And she pulled back, threw down her arms,

“See kutt on nagu musklis härg,

put them on her hips, turned around and yelled across the room,

ja ta krabab ming nagu mõni prantslane."

"This guy is built like a god-damned mountain of muscle,

(Naer)

See mõjus mulle julgustavalt.

and he's grabbing me like a fucking Frenchman,"

(Laughter)

(Naer)

Kõik purskasid naerma. Mul oli piinlik.

which I found encouraging.

Ta tuli minu juurde: “Hakkame pihta, ärme raiska aega.”

(Laughter)

Everyone burst into laughter. I was humiliated.

Olles tegelenud maadlusega 8. eluaastast, võtsin ta haardesse

She came back. She goes, "Come on. I don't have all day."

nagu Steinbecki “Hiirtest ja inimestest”.

As someone who wrestled since age eight, I proceeded to crush her,

Ta vaatas mulle otsa ja ütles:

"See on juba parem."

"Of Mice and Men" style.

And she looked up and said,

Ma maksin kogu kuu trennide eest ette.

"Now that's better."

(Naer)

Panin end võistlustele kirja, et mul oleks mingi tähtaeg -

So I bought a month's worth of classes.

(Laughter)

lähtudes Parkinsoni seadusest,

And proceeded to look at --

et asjad muutuvad seda keerulisemaks, mida rohkem on aega nende tegemiseks.

I wanted to set competition so I'd have a deadline --

Parkinson's Law,

the perceived complexity of a task will expand to fill the time you allot it.

Võistluste tähtaeg oli väga lähedal.

Kõigepealt sain endale naisõpetaja,

So I had a very short deadline for a competition.

kes õpetaks mulle naise osa, kuidas end juhtida lasta

I got a female instructor first,

sest ma tahtsin aru saada juhtitava poole loogikast,

to teach me the female role, the follow,

et mul ei tekiks sama seisu kui ülikoolis.

because I wanted to understand the sensitivities and abilities

Tegin naise liikumise koos õpetajaga endale selgeks,

that the follow needed to develop, so I wouldn't have a repeat of college.

And then I took an inventory of the characteristics,

vaatasime üle võtted ja oskused, mida võitjad olid varem kasutanud .

along with her, of the

Mul oli võimalus neid intervjueerida, sest nad kõik töötasid Buenos Aireses.

of the capabilities and elements of different dancers who'd won championships.

Võrdlesin kaht nimekirja

I interviewed these people because they all taught in Buenos Aires.

ja leidsin, et on olemas konkreetsed

mida nad soovitasid, kindlad treeningmeetodid.

I compared the two lists,

and what you find is that there is explicitly,

Samuti oli näha sõnastamata sarnasusi

expertise they recommended, certain training methods.

mida neist keegi ei praktiseerinud.

Then there were implicit commonalities

Jättes kõrvale Argentiina tantsutreenerite ringkaitse,

that none of them seemed to be practicing.

leidsin, et see on päris huvitav.

Otsustasin keskenduda kolmele võttele.

Now the protectionism of Argentine dance teachers aside,

Pikad sammud.

I found this very interesting. So I decided to focus on three of those commonalities.

Paljud milonguerod, tangotantsijad, kasutavad väga lühikeseid samme.

Long steps. So a lot of milongueros --

Leidsin, et pikad sammud mõjusid elegantsemalt.

the tango dancers will use very short steps.

I found that longer steps were much more elegant.

Selleks pole üldse palju ruumi vaja.

Teiseks, erinevad pöörded.

So you can have --

and you can do it in a very small space in fact.

Kolmandaks, tempo vaheldumine.

Secondly, different types of pivots.

Need tundusid olevat kolm võtet, mida ära kasutades võiksin saada

Thirdly, variation in tempo.

20-30 aastat harjutanud inimeste vastu.

These seemed to be the three areas that I could exploit to compete

if I wanted to comptete against people who'd been practicing for 20 to 30 years.

Siin osalen Buenos Airese tangoturniiri poolfinaalis, 4 kuud hiljem.

That photo is of the

Kuu pärast osalesin maailma meistrivõistlustel, jõudsin poolfinaali.

semi-finals of the Buenos Aires championships, four months later.

Kaks nädalat peale seda püstitasin maailmarekordi

Then one month later, went to the world championships,

Tahan, et näeksite, kuidas ma harjutasin.

made it to the semi-final. And then set a world record, following that,

Hüppan siit pisut edasi.

two weeks later.

I want you to see part of what I practiced.

See on instruktor, kelle valisime Aliciaga oma meespooleks.

I'm going to jump forward here.

This is the instructor that Alicia and I chose for the male lead.

Tema nimi on Gabriel Misse.

Oma põlvkonna üks elegantsemaid tantsijaid,

His name is Gabriel Misse.

kes on tuntud oma pikkade sammude, tempovahetuste ja pöörete poolest.

One of the most elegant dancers of his generation,

known for his long steps, and his tempo changes

and his pivots.

Alicia, ärateenitult, väga kuulus.

Nad näevad koos väga head välja.

Alicia, in her own right, very famous.

So I think you'll agree, they look quite good together.

Mis mulle siin meeldib, on see

et nad tantsisid esimest korda koos.

Now what I like about this video

Ta on lihtsalt nii hea juht.

Ta ei juhtinud mitte rindkerega, mis nõuaks ettepoole kallutamist.

is it's actually a video of the first time they ever danced together

because of his lead. He had a strong lead.

Mina ei suutnud oma jalgade tööd nii kaugele lihvida,

He didn't lead with his chest, which requires you lean forward.

et oleksin sama suutnud.

I couldn't develop the attributes in my toes,

Tema kasutab juhtimisstiili, mis põhineb õlavöötmel ja käel.

the strength in my feet, to do that.

So he uses a lead that focuses on

Nii saab ta näiteks naise üles tõsta.

his shoulder girdle and his arm.

See on vaid üks plussidest.

Võtsime selle tantsu siis osadeks lahti.

So he can lift the woman to break her, for example.

That's just one benefit of that.

Siin on näide ühest pöördest.

So then we broke it down.

Tagasiastumisega pööre.

On palju erinevaid pöördeid.

This would be an example of one pivot.

Ja mul on sadu tunde materjali -

This is a back step pivot.

There are many different types.

kõik kategoriseeritud,

I have hundreds of hours of footage --

nagu George Carlin süstematiseeris oma nalju.

all categorized, much like George Carlin

categorized his comedy.

Kasutades oma suurimat vihavaenlast,

hispaania keelt, et õppida tangot.

Seega hirmutunne on sõber, indikaator.

So using my arch-nemesis,

Vahel näitab see, et mida tegema ei peaks.

Spanish, no less, to learn tango.

Kuid liigagi tihti näitab ta hoopis, mida tuleks tingimata teha.

So fear is your friend. Fear is an indicator.

Sometimes it shows you what you shouldn't do.

Ja parimad tulemused, mida olen saavutanud,

More often than not it shows you exactly what you should do.

kõige meeldivamad hetked, on sündinud siis, kui küsin endalt:

And the best results that I've had in life,

“Mis on kõige hullem, mis võib juhtuda?”

the most enjoyable times, have all been from asking a simple question:

Eriti just nende hirmude osas, mis on tekkinud lapsepõlves.

what's the worst that can happen?

Kasutades analüüsivat raamistikku,

Especially with fears you gained when you were a child.

kastsetage oma oskusi vanade hirmude peal.

Take the analytical frameworks,

Rakendage neid suurte unistuste elluviimisel.

the capabilities you have, apply them to old fears.

Kui mõtlen, et mida ma praegu kardan, on see lihtne.

Apply them to very big dreams.

Kui ma kujutan ette, milline oleks mu elu

And when I think of what I fear now, it's very simple.

When I imagine my life,

ilma selliste võimalusteta õppida,

what my life would have been like

paneb see mind mõtlema.

without the educational opportunities that I had,

Olen viimased kaks aastat üritanud dekonstrueerida USA koolisüsteemi,

it makes me wonder.

I've spent the last two years trying to deconstruct

et seda kas parandada või millegi muuga asendada.

the American public school system,

Olen teinud katseid 50 000 õpilasega -

to either fix it or replace it.

ehitanud mitu kooli, kes nüüd on minu lugejad.

And have done experiments with about 50,000 students thus far --

Kui siin keegi on sellest huvitatud,

built, I'd say, about a half dozen schools,

vestleksin teiega meelsasti.

my readers, at this point.

Ma ei tea midagi.

And if any of you are interested in that,

Ma olen algaja.

I would love to speak with you.

Kuid ma küsin palju küsimusi ja võtan meelsasti nõu kuulda.

I know nothing. I'm a beginner.

Suur tänu.

But I ask a lot of questions, and I would love your advice.

(Aplaus)

Thank you very much.
