Try something new for 30 days | Matt Cutts

Translator: Kristaps Kadiķis Reviewer: Edīte Husare

A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut,

Pyrma dažim godim es sasajutu, kai byutu īsasprīds kasdīnā,

so I decided to follow in the footsteps

deļtuo izdūmuoju sekuot

of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock,

dyžanuo amerikaņu filosofa Morgana Sperloka pāduos

and try something new for 30 days.

i 30 dīnys paraudzeit kū jaunu.

The idea is actually pretty simple.

Ideja ir cīši vīnkuorša.

Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life

Aizadūmoj par kū taidu, kū sovā dzeivē vysod esi gribiejis padareit

and try it for the next 30 days.

i paraugi tū cytys 30 dīnys.

It turns out 30 days is just about the right amount of time

Izaruoda, kai 30 dīnys ir taišni eistuo laika šaļts,

to add a new habit or subtract a habit --

kab dabuotu jaunu īrodumu voi pamastu kaidu vacū,

like watching the news --

pīvadumam, ziņu vieršonuos

from your life.

nu sovys dzeivis.

There's a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges.

Ir koč kas, kū īsavuiceju, dorūt itūs 30 dīnu aizdavumus.

The first was,

Vysu pyrma

instead of the months flying by, forgotten,

mieneši naproskrieja garum, aizmiersteibā,

the time was much more memorable.

i beja daudzi vairuok kū atguoduot.

This was part of a challenge I did to take a picture every day for a month.

Daļa izaicynuojuma aizdavuma beja kotru mieneša dīnu sataiseit vīnu fotografeju.

And I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing that day.

Es atguodoju, kur taišni beju i kū tymā dīnā dareju.

I also noticed

Pamaneju,

that as I started to do more and harder 30-day challenges,

ka kai dareju vaira i gryušuokus 30 dīnu aizdavumus,

my self-confidence grew.

auga muna ticeiba sev.

I went from desk-dwelling computer nerd

Nū sātā sādūša datortuorpa

to the kind of guy who bikes to work.

es tyku par puiškinu, kurs brauc iz dorbu ar ritini.

For fun!

Prīcys piec!

(Laughter)

(Smīklys)

Even last year, I ended up hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro,

Pārnajā godā saguoja izkuopt Kilimandžaro,

the highest mountain in Africa.

aukstuokajā kolnā Afrikā.

I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges.

Pyrma izsuoču sovus 30 dīnu aizdavumus nikod nabyutu tveics piec taidim pīdzeivuojumim

I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough,

Es saprotu, ka eistyn koč kū gribi,

you can do anything for 30 days.

tod 30 dīnuos var padareit vysa kuo!

Have you ever wanted to write a novel?

Asat nazkod gribiejuši pīraksteit romanu?

Every November,

Kotru novembri

tens of thousands of people

desmitim tyukstūšu cylvāku

try to write their own 50,000-word novel, from scratch,

30 dīnu laikā rauga pīraksteit sovu 50 000 vuordu romanu

in 30 days.

nu nullis.

It turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day

Izaruoda, kai jiusim tik viņ kai vīnu mienesi kotru dīnu juopīroksta

for a month.

1 667 vuordi.

So I did.

Tai es ari dareju.

By the way, the secret is not to go to sleep

Cyta vydā, nūslāpums ir naīt gulātu,

until you've written your words for the day.

cikom naasat pīrakstejuši ituos dīnys vuordus.

You might be sleep-deprived,

Jiusim varbyut byus mīga bods,

but you'll finish your novel.

nu dabeigsit sovu romanu.

Now is my book the next great American novel?

Voi muna gruomota ir jauns dyžanais Amerikys romans?

No. I wrote it in a month.

Nā! Es tū pīraksteju par vīnu mienesi!

It's awful.

Jis ir baimeigs!

(Laughter)

(Smīklys)

But for the rest of my life,

Tok vysu tuoļuokuo dzeivi,

if I meet John Hodgman at a TED party,

kod TED večerinkā sasateiku ar Džonu Hodžmenu,

I don't have to say,

maņ nav juosoka:

"I'm a computer scientist."

„Es asu datorzynuotnīks.”

No, no, if I want to, I can say, "I'm a novelist."

Nā, nā, ka grybu, varu saceit: „Asu rakstinīks.”

(Laughter)

(Smīklys)

So here's one last thing I'd like to mention.

Vei, pādejais, kū grybu saceit.

I learned that when I made small, sustainable changes,

Es īsavuiceju, ka dorūt mozys i ilgtspiejeigys puormejis,

things I could keep doing,

tū, kū es varu dareit ari iz prīšku,

they were more likely to stick.

tys īrosts palyka.

There's nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges.

Lelim i trokim izaicynuojumim nav ni vainis.

In fact, they're a ton of fun.

Eistyneibā, tī ir dyžan ļusteigi.

But they're less likely to stick.

Tok tī drūsai viņ nabyus īrodums.

When I gave up sugar for 30 days,

30 dīnys atsasokūt nu cukra,

day 31 looked like this.

31. dīna izaviere koč kai itai:

(Laughter)

(Smīklys)

So here's my question to you:

Tai niu es jums vaicoju:

What are you waiting for?

Kuo jius vēļ gaidit?

I guarantee you the next 30 days

Es varu drūsai saceit, ka cytys 30 dīnys

are going to pass whether you like it or not,

īs iz prīkšu taipat, kai guojušys. pateik jums tys voi nā,

so why not think about something you have always wanted to try

tod parkū napadūmuot par kū taidu, kū vysod asat gribiejs paraudzeit,

and give it a shot!

i dareit tū!

For the next 30 days.

Cytys 30 dīnys.

Thanks.

Paļdis.

(Applause)
