My big idea is a very, very small idea

Moja velika ideja

je jako, jako mala ideja

that can unlock billions of big ideas

koja može otključati

milijarde velikih ideja

that are at the moment dormant inside us.

koje su, u ovom trenutku, uspavane u nama.

And my little idea that will do that is sleep.

A moja mala ideja koja će to napraviti

je spavanje.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

This is a room of type A women.

Ovo je soba A tipa žena.

Ovo je soba

This is a room of sleep-deprived women.

žena koje su lišene sna.

And I learned the hard way the value of sleep.

I na težak sam način naučila

vrijednost spavanja.

Prije dvije i pol godine,

Two-and-a-half years ago, I fainted from exhaustion.

onesvijestila sam se od iscrpljenosti.

I hit my head on my desk.

Udarila sam glavom o svoj stol, razbila sam jagodičnu kost,

I broke my cheekbone, I got five stitches on my right eye.

dobila sam pet šavova na desnom oku.

And I began the journey of rediscovering the value of sleep.

I započela sam putovanje

ponovnog otkrivanja vrijednosti sna.

Tijekom toga,

And in the course of that, I studied,

proučavala sam,

I met with medical doctors, scientists,

sastajala sam se s doktorima medicine, znanstvenicima,

and I'm here to tell you

i ovdje sam kako bih vam rekla

that the way to a more productive, more inspired, more joyful life

da je put koji vodi produktivnijem,

inspiriranijem, veselijem životu

jednak dobivanju dovoljno sna.

is getting enough sleep.

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

And we women are going to lead the way

A mi žene ćemo predvoditi put

in this new revolution, this new feminist issue.

u tu novu revoluciju, tu novu feminističku problematiku.

We are literally going to sleep our way to the top -- literally --

Odspavat ćemo naš put do vrha, doslovno.

(Smijeh)

(Laughter)

(Applause)

(Pljesak)

Jer, na nesreću,

because unfortunately, for men,

za muškarce,

sleep deprivation has become a virility symbol.

pomanjkanje sna je postalo simbol spolne zrelosti.

I was recently having dinner with a guy

Nedavno sam bila na večeri s momkom

who bragged that he had only gotten four hours sleep the night before.

koji se hvalio kako je

odspavao samo četiri sata noć prije.

I osjećala sam se da mu kažem -- ali nisam rekla --

And I felt like saying to him -- but I didn't say --

I felt like saying, "You know what? if you had gotten five,

osjećala sam se da kažem, "Znaš što?

Kad bi odspavao pet sati,

this dinner would have been a lot more interesting."

ova večera bi bila puno zanimljivija."

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)

There is now a kind of sleep deprivation one-upmanship.

Sada je pomanjkanje sna postalo nalik na

statusni simbol.

Especially here in Washington, if you try to make a breakfast date,

Pogotovo ovdje u Washingtonu, ako pokušavate dogovoriti doručak,

and you say, "How about eight o'clock?"

i kažete, "Što kažeš na osam sati?"

they're likely to tell you, "Eight o'clock is too late for me,

oni će vam najverojatnije reći, "Osam sati je prekasno za mene,

ali to je u redu, mogu odigrati partiju tenisa

but that's OK, I can get a game of tennis in

i obaviti nekoliko konferencijskih poziva i sastati se s tobom u osam."

and do a few conference calls and meet you at eight."

I oni misle kako to znači

And they think that means they are so incredibly busy and productive,

da su oni nevjerojatno zaposleni i produktivni,

ali istina je kako nisu,

but the truth is, they're not,

because we, at the moment,

jer, u ovom trenutku,

have had brilliant leaders in business, in finance, in politics,

smo imali iznimne vođe

u poslovnom svijetu, u financijama, u politici,

koji su donosili grozne odluke.

making terrible decisions.

Stoga, visok I.Q.

So a high IQ does not mean that you're a good leader,

ne znači da ste dobar vođa,

because the essence of leadership is being able to see the iceberg

jer je bit vodstva

vidjeti santu leda

before it hits the Titanic.

prije nego udari u Titanik.

(Laughter)

I imali smo previše santa leda

And we've had far too many icebergs hitting our Titanics.

koje su udarale naše Titanike.

In fact, I have a feeling

U biti, imam osjećaj

that if Lehman Brothers was Lehman Brothers and Sisters,

da kad bi Lehman Brothers (braća)

bio "Lehman braća i sestre",

they might still be around.

možda bi još uvijek bili s nama.

(Laughter)

(Pljesak)

(Applause)

While all the brothers were busy just being hyper-connected 24/7,

Dok su sva braća bili zauzeta

samo što su bili hiper-povezani 24 sata, 7 dana u tjednu,

možda bi sestra uočila santu leda,

maybe a sister would have noticed the iceberg,

because she would have woken up

jer bi se probudila iz sna od sedam i pol ili osam sati

from a seven-and-a-half- or eight-hour sleep,

and have been able to see the big picture.

i mogla bi vidjeti

širu sliku.

So as we are facing all the multiple crises

Kako smo suočeni

sa sve brojnijim krizama

trenutno u svijetu,

in our world at the moment,

what is good for us on a personal level,

ono što je dobro za nas na osobnoj razini,

what's going to bring more joy, gratitude, effectiveness in our lives

ono što će nam donijeti više veselja, zahvalnosti,

učinkovitosti u naše živote

and be the best for our own careers,

i biti najbolje za naše karijere,

is also what is best for the world.

je isto ono što je najbolje za svijet.

So I urge you to shut your eyes,

Stoga vas potičem

da zatvorite svoje oči

and discover the great ideas that lie inside us;

i otkrijete velike ideje

koje leže u nama,

to shut your engines and discover the power of sleep.

da ugasite svoje motore i otkrijete moć sna.

Thank you.

Hvala vam.

(Applause)
