I've spent the last decade

2000
ื‘ื™ืœื™ืชื™ ืืช ื”ืขืฉื•ืจ ื”ืื—ืจื•ืŸ
00:17
subjecting myself to pain and humiliation,

ื‘ื—ืฉื™ืคืช ืขืฆืžื™ ืœื›ืื‘ ื•ื”ืฉืคืœื”,
00:20
hopefully for a good cause,

2000
ืœืžื˜ืจื” ื˜ื•ื‘ื”, ืื ื™ ืžืงื•ื•ื”,
00:22
which is self-improvement.

3000
ืฉื”ื™ื ืฉื™ืคื•ืจ ืขืฆืžื™.
00:25
And I've done this in three parts.

2000
ื•ืขืฉื™ืชื™ ืืช ื–ื” ื‘ืฉืœื•ืฉื” ื—ืœืงื™ื.
00:27
So first I started with the mind.

27330
3000
ืื– ืจืืฉื™ืช ื”ืชื—ืœืชื™ ืขื ื”ืฉื›ืœ.
00:30
And I decided to try to get smarter

30330
4000
ื•ื”ื—ืœื˜ืชื™ ืœื ืกื•ืช ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื—ื›ื ื™ื•ืชืจ
00:34
by reading the entire Encyclopedia Britannica

ืขืœ ื™ื“ื™ ืงืจื™ืืช ื›ืœ ืื ืฆื™ืงืœื•ืคื“ื™ื” ื‘ืจื™ื˜ื ื™ืงื”
00:36
from A to Z --
8
36330
2000
ืžA ืœ Z --
00:38
or, more precisely, from "a-ak" to "Zywiec."
9
38330
3000
ืื•, ืœื™ืชืจ ื“ื™ื•ืง, ืž"a-ak" ืœ "Zywiec."
00:41
And here's a little image of that.
10
41330
2000
ื•ื”ื ื” ืชืžื•ื ื” ืงื˜ื ื” ืžื–ื”.
00:43
And this was an amazing year.
11
43330
2000
ื•ื–ื• ื”ื™ืชื” ืฉื ื” ืžื•ืคืœืื”.
00:45
It was really a fascinating journey.
12
45330
2000
ื–ื” ื‘ืืžืช ื”ื™ื” ืžืกืข ืžืจืชืง.
00:47
It was painful at times,
13
47330
3000
ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื›ื•ืื‘ ืœืคืขืžื™ื,
00:50
especially for those around me.
14
50330
2000
ื‘ืขื™ืงืจ ืœืืœื” ืฉืกื‘ื™ื‘ื™.
00:52
My wife started to fine me one dollar
15
52330
3000
ืื™ืฉืชื™ ื”ืชื—ื™ืœื” ืœืงื ื•ืก ืื•ืชื™ ื‘ื“ื•ืœืจ
00:55
for every irrelevant fact I inserted into conversation.
16
55330
3000
ืขืœ ื›ืœ ืขื•ื‘ื“ื” ืœื ืจืœื•ื•ื ื˜ื™ืช ืฉื”ื›ื ืกืชื™ ืœืฉื™ื—ื•ืช ืฉืœื ื•.
00:58
So it had its downsides.
17
58330
4000
ืื– ื”ื™ื• ืœื–ื” ื—ืกืจื•ื ื•ืช.
01:02
But after that,
18
62330
2000
ืื‘ืœ ืื—ืจื™ ื–ื”,
01:04
I decided to work on the spirit.
19
64330
2000
ื”ื—ืœื˜ืชื™ ืœืขื‘ื•ื“ ืขืœ ื”ื ืฉืžื”.
01:06
As I mentioned last year,
20
66330
2000
ื›ืžื• ืฉื”ื–ื›ืจืชื™ ื‘ืฉื ื” ืฉืขื‘ืจื”,
01:08
I grew up with no religion at all.
21
68330
2000
ื’ื“ืœืชื™ ืœืœื ื“ืช ื‘ื›ืœืœ.
01:10
I'm Jewish,
22
70330
2000
ืื ื™ ื™ื”ื•ื“ื™,
01:12
but I'm Jewish in the same way the Olive Garden is Italian.
23
72330
3000
ืื‘ืœ ืื ื™ ื™ื”ื•ื“ื™ ื‘ืื•ืชื” ืžื™ื“ื” ืฉื“ื•ืžื™ื ื•ืก ื”ื™ื ืื™ื˜ืœืงื™ืช.
01:15
(Laughter)
24
75330
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
01:17
Not really.
25
77330
2000
ืœื ื‘ืืžืช.
01:19
But I decided to learn about the Bible and my heritage
26
79330
3000
ืื‘ืœ ื”ื—ืœื˜ืชื™ ืœืœืžื•ื“ ืขืœ ื”ืชื "ืš ื•ื”ืžื•ืจืฉืช ืฉืœื™
01:22
by actually diving in
27
82330
2000
ืขืœ ื™ื“ื™ ืฆืœื™ืœื” ื‘ืขืฆื
01:24
and trying to live it and immerse myself in it.
28
84330
2000
ื•ื ืกื™ื•ืŸ ืœื—ื™ื•ืช ื•ืœืขื˜ื•ืฃ ืืช ืขืฆืžื™ ื‘ื”.
01:26
So I decided to follow all the rules of the Bible.
29
86330
3000
ืื– ื”ื—ืœื˜ืชื™ ืœืขืงื•ื‘ ืื—ืจื™ ื—ื•ืงื™ ื”ืชื "ืš.
01:29
And from the Ten Commandments
30
89330
2000
ื•ืžืขืฉืจ ื”ื“ื‘ืจื•ืช
01:31
to growing my beard --
31
91330
2000
ืœื’ื™ื“ื•ืœ ื–ืงื ื™ --
01:33
because Leviticus says you cannot shave.
32
93330
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉื•ื™ืงืจื ืื•ืžืจ ืฉืืกื•ืจ ืœื”ืชื’ืœื—.
01:35
So this is what I looked like by the end.
33
95330
3000
ืื– ื›ืš ื ืจืื™ืชื™ ื‘ืกื•ืฃ.
01:38
Thank you for that reaction.
34
98330
2000
ืชื•ื“ื” ืœื›ื ืขืœ ื”ืชื’ื•ื‘ื” ื”ื–ื•.
01:40
(Laughter)
35
100330
3000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
01:43
I look a little like Moses, or Ted Kaczynski.
36
103330
3000
ืื ื™ ื ืจืื” ืงืฆืช ื›ืžื• ืžืฉื”, ืื• ื˜ื“ ืงื–ื™ื ืกืงื™.
01:46
I got both of them.
37
106330
2000
ื™ืฉ ืœื™ ืืช ืฉื ื™ื”ื.
01:48
So there was the topiary there.
38
108330
3000
ืื– ื™ืฉ ืืช ื”ื’ื™ื ื•ืŸ ื”ืืžื ื•ืชื™ ืฉื.
01:51
And there's the sheep.
39
111330
3000
ื•ื”ื ื” ื”ื›ื‘ืฉื”.
01:54
Now the final part of the trilogy
40
114330
2000
ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ื”ื—ืœืง ื”ืื—ืจื•ืŸ ืฉืœ ื”ื˜ืจื™ืœื•ื’ื™ื”
01:56
was I wanted to focus on the body
41
116330
3000
ื”ื™ื” ืฉืจืฆื™ืชื™ ืœื”ืชืžืงื“ ื‘ื’ื•ืฃ
01:59
and try to be the healthiest person I could be,
42
119330
2000
ื•ืœื ืกื•ืช ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื”ืื“ื ื”ื‘ืจื™ื ื‘ื™ื•ืชืจ ืฉื™ื›ื•ืœืชื™,
02:01
the healthiest person alive.
43
121330
2000
ื”ืื“ื ื”ื‘ืจื™ื ื‘ื™ื•ืชืจ ื‘ื—ื™ื™ื.
02:03
So that's what I've been doing the last couple of years.
44
123330
3000
ืื– ื–ื” ืžื” ืฉืขืฉื™ืชื™ ื‘ืฉื ื™ื ื”ืื—ืจื•ื ื•ืช.
02:06
And I just finished a couple of months ago.
45
126330
2000
ื•ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืง ืกื™ื™ืžืชื™ ืœืคื ื™ ื›ืžื” ื—ื•ื“ืฉื™ื.
02:08
And I have to say, thank God.
46
128330
2000
ื•ืื ื™ ื—ื™ื™ื‘ ืœื•ืžืจ, ืชื•ื“ื” ืœืืœ.
02:10
Because living so healthily was killing me.
47
130330
3000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉืœื—ื™ื•ืช ื›ืœ ื›ืš ื‘ืจื™ื ื”ืจื’ ืื•ืชื™.
02:13
(Laughter)
48
133330
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
02:15
It was so overwhelming,
49
135330
3000
ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื›ืœ ื›ืš ืžื•ื—ืฅ,
02:18
because the amount of things you have to do,
50
138330
2000
ื‘ื’ืœืœ ื›ืžื•ืช ื”ื“ื‘ืจื™ื ืฉืฆืจื™ืš ืœืขืฉื•ืช,
02:20
it's just mind-boggling.
51
140330
2000
ื–ื” ืคืฉื•ื˜ ืžื˜ืจื™ืฃ.
02:22
I was listening to all the experts
52
142330
2000
ื”ืงืฉื‘ืชื™ ืœื›ืœ ื”ืžื•ืžื—ื™ื
02:24
and talking to sort of a board of medical advisers.
53
144330
2000
ื•ื“ื™ื‘ืจืชื™ ืขื ืกื•ื’ ืฉืœ ื™ืฉื™ื‘ืช ืžื ื”ืœื™ื ืฉืœ ื™ื•ืขืฆื™ื ืจืคื•ืื™ื™ื.
02:26
And they were telling me
54
146330
2000
ื•ื”ื ืืžืจื• ืœื™
02:28
all the things I had to do.
55
148330
2000
ืืช ื›ืœ ื”ื“ื‘ืจื™ื ืฉืื ื™ ืฆืจื™ืš ืœืขืฉื•ืช.
02:30
I had to eat right,
56
150330
2000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ืš ืœืื›ื•ืœ ื ื›ื•ืŸ,
02:32
exercise, meditate, pet dogs,
57
152330
3000
ืœื”ืชืขืžืœ, ืœืขืฉื•ืช ืžื“ื™ื˜ืฆื™ื”, ืœืœื˜ืฃ ื›ืœื‘ื™ื,
02:35
because that lowers the blood pressure.
58
155330
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉื–ื” ืžื ืžื™ืš ืืช ืœื—ืฅ ื”ื“ื.
02:37
I wrote the book on a treadmill,
59
157330
2000
ื›ืชื‘ืชื™ ืืช ื”ืกืคืจ ืขืœ ื”ืœื™ื›ื•ืŸ,
02:39
and it took me about a thousand miles
60
159330
2000
ื•ื–ื” ืœืงื— ืœื™ ื‘ืขืจืš ืืœืฃ ืžื™ื™ืœ
02:41
to write the book.
61
161330
2000
ืœื›ืชื•ื‘ ืืช ื”ืกืคืจ.
02:43
I had to put on sunscreen.
62
163330
2000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ืš ืœืžืจื•ื— ืงืจื ื”ื’ื ื”.
02:45
This was no small feat,
63
165330
2000
ื–ื• ื”ื™ืชื” ืžืฉื™ืžื” ืœื ืคืฉื•ื˜ื”,
02:47
because if you listen to dermatologists,
64
167330
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉืื ืžืงืฉื™ื‘ื™ื ืœืจื•ืคืื™ ื”ืขื•ืจ,
02:49
they say that you should have a shot glass full of sunscreen.
65
169330
3000
ื”ื ืื•ืžืจื™ื ืฉืืชื ืฆืจื™ื›ื™ื ื›ื•ืกื™ืช ืžืœืื” ื‘ืงืจื ื”ื’ื ื”.
02:52
And you have to reapply it every two to four hours.
66
172330
2000
ื•ืฆืจื™ืš ืœืžืจื•ื— ื›ืœ ืฉืขืชื™ื™ื ืขื“ ืืจื‘ืข.
02:54
So I think half of my book advance
67
174330
2000
ืื– ืื ื™ ื—ื•ืฉื‘ ืฉื—ืฆื™ ืžื”ืžืงื“ืžื” ืขืœ ื”ืกืคืจ
02:56
went into sunscreen.
68
176330
2000
ื”ืœื›ื” ืขืœ ืงืจื ื”ื’ื ื”.
02:58
I was like a glazed doughnut
69
178330
2000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ื›ืžื• ืกื•ืคื’ื ื™ื” ืžื–ื•ื’ื’ืช
03:00
for most of the year.
70
180330
2000
ื‘ืžืฉืš ืจื•ื‘ ื”ืฉื ื”.
03:02
There was the washing of hands.
71
182330
2000
ื”ื™ื” ืืช ืจื—ื™ืฆืช ื”ื™ื“ื™ื™ื.
03:04
I had to do that properly.
72
184330
2000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ืฆืจื™ืš ืœืขืฉื•ืช ืืช ื–ื” ื˜ื•ื‘.
03:06
And my immunologist told me
73
186330
2000
ื•ื”ืื™ืžื•ื ื•ืœื•ื’ ืืžืจ ืœื™
03:08
that I should also wipe down
74
188330
3000
ืฉืื ื™ ืฆืจื™ืš ื’ื ืœื ื’ื‘
03:11
all of the remote controls and iPhones in my house,
75
191330
3000
ืืช ื›ืœ ื”ืฉืœื˜ื™ื ื•ื”ืื™ื™ืคื•ื ื™ื ื‘ื‘ื™ืช,
03:14
because those are just orgies of germs.
76
194330
3000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉืืœื• ืคืฉื•ื˜ ืื•ืจื’ื™ื•ืช ืฉืœ ื—ื™ื™ื“ืงื™ื.
03:17
So that took a lot of time.
77
197330
2000
ืื– ื–ื” ืœืงื— ื”ืจื‘ื” ื–ืžืŸ.
03:19
I also tried to be the safest person I could be,
78
199330
3000
ื’ื ื ื™ืกื™ืชื™ ืœื”ื™ื•ืช ื”ืื“ื ื”ื–ื”ื™ืจ ื‘ื™ื•ืชืจ ืฉื™ื›ื•ืœืชื™,
03:22
because that's a part of health.
79
202330
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉื–ื” ื—ืœืง ืžื”ื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช.
03:24
I was inspired
80
204330
2000
ืงื™ื‘ืœืชื™ ื”ืฉืจืื”
03:26
by the Danish Safety Council.
81
206330
2000
ืžืžื•ืขืฆืช ื”ื‘ื˜ื™ื—ื•ืช ื”ื“ื ื™ืช.
03:28
They started a public campaign
82
208330
2000
ื”ื ื”ืชื—ื™ืœื• ืงืžืคื™ื™ืŸ ืฆื™ื‘ื•ืจื™
03:30
that says, "A walking helmet is a good helmet."
83
210330
3000
ืฉืืžืจ, "ืงืกื“ืช ื”ืœื™ื›ื” ื”ื™ื ืงืกื“ื” ื˜ื•ื‘ื”."
03:33
So they believe you should not just wear helmets for biking,
84
213330
4000
ืื– ื”ื ืžืืžื™ื ื™ื ืฉืืชื ืฆืจื™ื›ื™ื ืœื—ื‘ื•ืฉ ืงืกื“ื•ืช ืœื ืจืง ื‘ืจื›ื™ื‘ื” ืขืœ ืื•ืคื ื™ื™ื,
03:37
but also for walking around.
85
217330
3000
ืืœื ื’ื ื‘ื–ืžืŸ ื”ืœื™ื›ื”.
03:40
And you can see there
86
220330
3000
ื•ืืชื ื™ื›ื•ืœื™ื ืœืจืื•ืช ืฉื
03:43
they're shopping with their helmets.
87
223330
2000
ืฉื”ื ืขื•ืฉื™ื ืงื ื™ื•ืช ืขื ืงืกื“ื”.
03:45
(Laughter)
88
225330
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
03:47
Well yeah, I tried that.
89
227330
3000
ืื– ื›ืŸ, ื ื™ืกื™ืชื™ ืืช ื–ื”.
03:51
Now it's a little extreme, I admit.

ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ื–ื” ืงืฆืช ืงื™ืฆื•ื ื™, ืื ื™ ืžื•ื“ื”.
03:53
But if you think about this,
91
233330
2000
ืื‘ืœ ืื ืชื—ืฉื‘ื• ืขืœ ื–ื”,
03:55
this is actually -- the "Freakonomics" authors wrote about this --

ืžื”ืœื™ื›ื” ื‘ืฉื™ื›ืจื•ืช

than from drunk driving.

ืžืืฉืจ ื ื”ื™ื’ื” ื‘ืฉื™ื›ืจื•ืช.
04:05
So something to think about tonight

245330
2000
ืื– ืžืฉื”ื• ืœื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืขืœื™ื• ื”ืœื™ืœื”
04:07
if you've had a couple.
97
247330
3000
ืื ืฉืชื™ืชื ืงืฆืช.
04:10
So I finished,
98
250330
2000
ืื– ืกื™ื™ืžืชื™,
04:12
and it was a success in a sense.
99
252330
2000
ื•ื–ื” ื”ืฆืœื™ื— ื‘ืžื™ื“ื” ืžืกื•ื™ื™ืžืช.
04:14
All of the markers went in the right direction.
100
254330
3000
ื›ืœ ื”ืกืžื ื™ื ื”ืœื›ื• ื‘ื›ื™ื•ื•ืŸ ื”ื ื›ื•ืŸ.
04:17
My cholesterol went down, I lost weight,
101
257330
3000
ื”ื›ื•ืœืกื˜ืจื•ืœ ืฉืœื™ ื™ืจื“, ื™ืจื“ืชื™ ื‘ืžืฉืงืœ,
04:20
my wife stopped telling me that I looked pregnant.
102
260330
4000
ืืฉืชื™ ื”ืคืกื™ืงื” ืœื”ื’ื™ื“ ืœื™ ืฉืื ื™ ื ืจืื” ื‘ื”ืจื™ื•ืŸ.
04:24
So that was nice.
103
264330
3000
ืื– ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื ื—ืžื“.
04:27
And it was successful overall.
104
267330
3000
ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืžื•ืฆืœื— ื‘ืื•ืคืŸ ื›ืœืœื™.
04:30
But I also learned that I was too healthy,
105
270330
2000
ืื‘ืœ ืœืžื“ืชื™ ื’ื ืฉื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ื™ื•ืชืจ ืžื“ื™ ื‘ืจื™ื,
04:32
and that was unhealthy.
106
272330
2000
ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืœื ื‘ืจื™ื.
04:34
I was so focused on doing all these things
107
274330
3000
ื”ื™ื™ืชื™ ื›ืœ ื›ืš ืžืžื•ืงื“ ื‘ืœืขืฉื•ืช ืืช ื”ื“ื‘ืจื™ื ื”ืืœื”
04:37
that I was neglecting my friends and family.
108
277330
3000
ืฉื”ื–ื ื—ืชื™ ืืช ื”ื—ื‘ืจื™ื ื•ื”ืžืฉืคื—ื” ืฉืœื™.
04:40
And as Dan Buettner can tell you,
109
280330
2000
ื•ื›ืžื• ืฉื“ืŸ ื‘ื•ื˜ื ืจ ื™ื›ื•ืœ ืœืกืคืจ ืœื›ื,
04:42
having a strong social network

282330
2000
ื›ืฉื™ืฉ ืจืฉืช ื—ื‘ืจืชื™ืช ื—ื–ืงื”
04:44
is so crucial to our health.
111
284330
2000
ื–ื” ื—ื™ื•ื ื™ ืœื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช.
04:46
So I finished.
112
286330
2000
ืื– ืกื™ื™ืžืชื™.
04:48
And I kind of went overboard
113
288330
3000
ื•ื“ื™ ื”ื’ื–ืžืชื™
04:51
on the week after the project was over.
114
291330
3000
ื‘ืฉื‘ื•ืข ืื—ืจื™ ืฉื”ืคืจื•ื™ื™ืงื˜ ื ื’ืžืจ.
04:54
I went to the dark side,
115
294330
2000
ืขื‘ืจืชื™ ืœืฆื“ ื”ืืคืœ,
04:56
and I just indulged myself.
116
296330
2000
ื•ืคืฉื•ื˜ ืคื™ื ืงืชื™ ืืช ืขืฆืžื™.
04:58
It was like something out of Caligula.
117
298330
2000
ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื›ืžื• ืžืฉื”ื• ืžืงืœื™ื’ื•ืœื”.
05:00
(Laughter)
118
300330
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
05:02
Without the sex part.
119
302330
2000
ื‘ืœื™ ืงื˜ืขื™ ื”ืกืงืก.
05:04
Because I have three young kids,
120
304330
2000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉื™ืฉ ืœื™ ืฉืœื•ืฉื” ื™ืœื“ื™ื ืงื˜ื ื™ื,
05:06
so that wasn't happening.
121
306330
3000
ืื– ื–ื” ืœื ืงืจื”.
05:09
But the over-eating and over-drinking, definitely.
122
309330
3000
ืื‘ืœ ืื›ื™ืœืช ื”ื™ืชืจ ื•ืฉืชื™ื™ืช ื”ื™ืชืจ, ื‘ื”ื—ืœื˜.
05:12
And I finally have stabilized.
123
312330
5000
ื•ืœื‘ืกื•ืฃ ื”ืชื™ื™ืฆื‘ืชื™.
05:17
So now I'm back
124
317330
2000
ืื– ืขื›ืฉื™ื• ืื ื™ ื—ื–ืจืชื™
05:19
to adopting many -- not all; I don't wear a helmet anymore --
125
319330
3000
ืœืื™ืžื•ืฅ ื”ืจื‘ื” -- ืœื ื›ืœ; ืื ื™ ืœื ื—ื•ื‘ืฉ ืงืกื“ื” ื™ื•ืชืจ --
05:22
but dozens of healthy behaviors
126
322330
3000
ืื‘ืœ ืขืฉืจื•ืช ืฉืœ ื”ืชื ื”ื’ื•ื™ื•ืช ื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช
05:25
that I adopted during my year.
127
325330
3000
ืฉืื™ืžืฆืชื™ ื‘ืžืฉืš ื”ืฉื ื”.
05:28
It was really a life-changing project.
128
328330
3000
ื–ื” ื‘ืืžืช ื”ื™ื” ืคืจื•ื™ื™ืงื˜ ืžืฉื ื” ื—ื™ื™ื.
05:31
And I, of course, don't have time to go into all of them.
129
331330
3000
ื•ืื™ืŸ ืœื™, ื›ืžื•ื‘ืŸ, ื–ืžืŸ ืœื“ื‘ืจ ืขืœ ื›ื•ืœื.
05:34
Let me just tell you two really quickly.
130
334330
3000
ืชื ื• ืœื™ ืจืง ืœืกืคืจ ืœื›ื ืขืœ ืฉื ื™ื™ื ื‘ื–ืจื™ื–ื•ืช.
05:37
The first is -- and this was surprising to me;
131
337330
2000
ื”ืจืืฉื•ืŸ ื”ื•ื -- ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ืžืคืชื™ืข ื‘ืฉื‘ื™ืœื™;
05:39
I didn't expect this to come out --
132
339330
2000
ืœื ืฆื™ืคื™ืชื™ ืฉื–ื” ื™ืฆื --
05:41
but I live a much quieter life now.
133
341330
3000
ืื‘ืœ ืื ื™ ื—ื™ ื—ื™ื™ื ื™ื•ืชืจ ืฉืงื˜ื™ื ืขื›ืฉื™ื•.
05:44
Because we live in such a noisy world.
134
344330
3000
ืžืคื ื™ ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ื—ื™ื™ื ื‘ืขื•ืœื ื›ืœ ื›ืš ืจื•ืขืฉ.
05:47
There's trains and planes and cars
135
347330
4000
ื™ืฉ ืจื›ื‘ื•ืช ื•ืžื˜ื•ืกื™ื ื•ืžื›ื•ื ื™ื•ืช
05:51
and Bill O'Reilly, he's very noisy.
136
351330
3000
ื•ื‘ื™ืœ ืื•ืจื™ื™ืœื™ (ืคืจืฉืŸ), ื”ื•ื ืžืื•ื“ ืจื•ืขืฉ.
05:54
(Laughter)
137
354330
3000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
05:57
And this is a real underestimated, under-appreciated health hazard --
138
357330
5000
ื•ื–ื” ืกื™ื›ื•ืŸ ื‘ืจื™ืื•ืชื™ ืœื ืžื•ืขืจืš --
06:02
not just because it harms our hearing, which it obviously does,
139
362330
3000
ืœื ืจืง ื‘ื’ืœืœ ืฉื–ื” ืคื•ื’ืข ื‘ืฉืžื™ืขื” ืฉืœื ื•, ืฉื‘ืจื•ืจ ืฉื–ื” ืขื•ืฉื”,
06:05
but it actually initiates
140
365330
3000
ืืœื ืฉื–ื” ืœืžืขืฉื” ืžืชื—ื™ืœ
06:08
the fight-or-flight response.
141
368330
2000
ืืช ืชื’ื•ื‘ืช ื”ื™ืœื—ื ืื• ื‘ืจื—.
06:10
A loud noise will get your fight-or-flight response going.
142
370330
3000
ืงื•ืœ ื—ื–ืง ื™ื’ืจื•ื ืœืชื’ื•ื‘ืช ื”ื™ืœื—ื ืื• ื‘ืจื—.
06:13
And this, over the years,
143
373330
3000
ื•ื–ื”, ื‘ืžืฉืš ื”ืฉื ื™ื,
06:16
can cause real damage, cardiovascular damage.
144
376330
3000
ื™ื›ื•ืœ ืœื’ืจื•ื ืœื ื–ืง ืืžื™ืชื™, ื ื–ืง ืงืจื“ื™ื•-ื•ืกืงื•ืœืจื™.
06:19
The World Health Organization just did a big study
145
379330
3000
ืืจื’ื•ืŸ ื”ื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช ื”ืขื•ืœืžื™ ื‘ื“ื™ื•ืง ืขืฉื” ืžื—ืงืจ ื’ื“ื•ืœ
06:22
that they published this year.
146
382330
2000
ืฉื”ื ืคืจืกืžื• ื”ืฉื ื”.
06:24
And it was done in Europe.
147
384330
2000
ื•ื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื‘ืื™ืจื•ืคื”.
06:26
And they estimated
148
386330
2000
ื•ื”ื ื”ืขืจื™ื›ื•
06:28
that 1.6 million years of healthy living
149
388330
4000
ืฉ 1.6 ืžื™ืœื™ื•ืŸ ืฉื ื™ื ืฉืœ ื—ื™ื™ื ื‘ืจื™ืื™ื
06:32

3000
ื ืื‘ื“ื™ื ื›ืœ ืฉื ื” ื‘ืื™ืจื•ืคื”
06:35
because of noise pollution.
151
395330
3000
ื‘ื’ืœืœ ื–ื™ื”ื•ื ืจืขืฉ.
06:38
So they think it's actually very deadly.
152
398330
3000
ืื– ื”ื ื—ื•ืฉื‘ื™ื ืœืžืขืฉื” ืฉื–ื” ืžืื•ื“ ืงื˜ืœื ื™.
06:41
And by the way,
153
401330
2000
ื•ื“ืจืš ืื’ื‘,
06:43
it's also terrible for your brain.
154
403330
3000
ื–ื” ื’ื ื ื•ืจืื™ ืœืžื•ื— ืฉืœื›ื.
06:46
It really impairs cognition.
155
406330
3000
ื–ื” ื‘ืืžืช ืคื•ื’ืข ื‘ื”ื›ืจื”.
06:49
And our Founding Fathers knew about this.
156
409330
2000
ื•ื”ืื‘ื•ืช ื”ืžื™ื™ืกื“ื™ื ืฉืœื ื• ื™ื“ืขื• ืขืœ ื–ื”.
06:51
When they wrote the Constitution,
157
411330
2000
ื›ืฉื”ื ื›ืชื‘ื• ืืช ื”ื—ื•ืงื”,
06:53
they put dirt all over the cobblestones outside the hall
158
413330
4000
ื”ื ืคื™ื–ืจื• ืขืคืจ ืขืœ ื”ื—ืฆืฅ ืžื—ื•ืฅ ืœืื•ืœื
06:57
so that they could concentrate.
159
417330
3000
ื›ื“ื™ ืฉื”ื ื™ื•ื›ืœื• ืœื”ืชืจื›ื–.
07:00
So without noise reduction technology,
160
420330
3000
ืื– ื‘ืœื™ ื˜ื›ื ื•ืœื•ื’ื™ื•ืช ืœื”ืคื—ืชืช ืจืขืฉ,
07:03
our country would not exist.

3000
ื”ืžื“ื™ื ื” ืฉืœื ื• ืœื ื”ื™ืชื” ืงื™ื™ืžืช.
07:06
So as a patriot,
162
426330
2000
ืื– ื›ืคื˜ืจื™ื•ื˜,
07:08
I felt it was important to --
163
428330
2000
ื”ืจื’ืฉืชื™ ืฉื–ื” ื”ื™ื” ื—ืฉื•ื‘ --
07:10
I wear all the earplugs and the earphones,

ืื ื™ ืžืฉืชืžืฉ ื‘ื›ืœ ืื˜ืžื™ ื”ืื•ื–ื ื™ื™ื ื”ืืœื” ื•ื”ืื•ื–ื ื™ื•ืช,

and it's really improved my life
165
432330
3000
ื•ื–ื” ืžืžืฉ ืฉื™ืคืจ ืืช ื—ื™ื™
07:15
in a surprising and unexpected way.

3000
ื‘ื“ืจืš ืžืคืชื™ืขื” ื•ืœื ืฆืคื•ื™ื™ื”.
07:18
And the second point I want to make, the final point,
167
438330
3000
ื•ื”ื ืงื•ื“ื” ื”ืฉื ื™ื” ืฉืจืฆื™ืชื™ ืœื”ืขื‘ื™ืจ, ื”ื ืงื•ื“ื” ื”ืื—ืจื•ื ื”,
07:21
is that -- and it's actually been a theme of TEDMED --
168
441330
5000
ื”ื™ื -- ื•ื–ื” ื‘ืขืฆื ื”ื™ื” ื ื•ืฉื ื‘ TEDMED --
07:26
that joy is so important to your health,

4000
ืฉืื•ืฉืจ ื›ืœ ื›ืš ื—ืฉื•ื‘ ืœื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช ืฉืœื›ื,
07:30
that very few of these behaviors
170
450330
4000
ืฉื›ืœ ื›ืš ืžืขื˜ ืžื”ื”ืชื ื”ื’ื•ื™ื•ืช ื”ืืœื•
07:34
will stick with me
171
454330
2000
ื™ืฉืืจื• ืื™ืชื™
07:36
unless there's some sense of pleasure and joy in them.
172

07:41
And just to give you one instance of this:
173
461330
3000
ื•ืจืง ืœืชืช ืœื›ื ื“ื•ื’ืžื” ืœื–ื”:
07:44

174
464330
2000
ืื•ื›ืœ.
07:46
The junk food industry
175
466330
3000
ืชืขืฉื™ื™ืช ืžื–ื•ืŸ ื”ื–ื‘ืœ
07:49
is really great
176
469330
2000
ื”ื™ื ื‘ืืžืช ื’ื“ื•ืœื”

at pressing our pleasure buttons

ื‘ืœื—ื™ืฆื” ืขืœ ื›ืคืชื•ืจื™ ื”ื”ื ืื” ืฉืœื ื•

178
473330
3000
ื•ื‘ืœื”ื‘ื™ืŸ ืžื” ื”ื›ื™ ืžื”ื ื”.
07:56
But I think we can use their techniques
179
476330
2000
ืื‘ืœ ืื ื™ ื—ื•ืฉื‘ ืฉืื ื—ื ื• ื™ื›ื•ืœื™ื ืœื”ืฉืชืžืฉ ื‘ืฉื™ื˜ื•ืช ืฉืœื”ื

478330
2000
ื•ืœื™ื™ืฉื ืื•ืชืŸ ืœืื•ื›ืœ ื‘ืจื™ื.
08:00
To give just one example,
181
480330
2000
ืจืง ืœืชืช ืœื›ื ื“ื•ื’ืžื” ืื—ืช,
08:02
we love crunchiness, mouthfeel.

So I basically have tried to incorporate crunchiness
183
485330
4000
ืื– ื‘ืขื™ืงืจื•ืŸ ื ื™ืกื™ืชื™ ืœืฉืœื‘ ืงืจืื ืฆ'ื™ื•ืช

ื‘ื”ืจื‘ื” ืžื”ืžืชื›ื•ื ื™ื ืฉืœื™ --
08:11

ืœื”ื•ืกื™ืฃ ืงืฆืช ื–ืจืขื™ ื—ืžื ื™ื”.
08:13
And you can almost trick yourself
186
493330
2000
ื•ืืชื ื™ื›ื•ืœื™ื ื›ืžืขื˜ ืœืฉื˜ื•ืช ื‘ืขืฆืžื›ื

08:17
(Laughter)
188
497330
2000
(ืฆื—ื•ืง)
08:19
And it has made me a healthier person.
189
499330
2000
ื•ื–ื” ืขืฉื” ืื•ืชื™ ืื“ื ื‘ืจื™ื ื™ื•ืชืจ.

So that is it.
