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

Prevodilac: Ivan Minic Lektor: Sandra Gojic

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

Ovo je zapravo dvosatna prezentacija za studente, koju sam

cut down to three minutes.

skratio na tri minuta.

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

Sve je počelo jednog dana u avionu, na mom putu na TED,

seven years ago.

pre sedam godina.

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

Pored mene je sedela

srudentkinja, tinejdžer,

and she came from a really poor family.

koja je poticala iz veoma siromašne porodice.

And she wanted to make something of her life,

Želela je da napravi nešto od svog života,

and she asked me a simple little question.

i postavila mi je malo jednostavno pitanje.

Pitala je "Šta vodi ka uspehu?"

She said, "What leads to success?"

Osećao sam se jako loše

And I felt really badly,

because I couldn't give her a good answer.

jer joj nisam mogao dati dobar odgovor.

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

Sišao sam sa aviona i došao na TED.

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

Pomislio sam, u sobi sam punoj uspešnih ljudi!

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

Zašto njih ne ne bih pitao šta im je pomoglo da uspeju,

and pass it on to kids?

i preneo to mladima?

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

I evo nas danas, sedam godina i 500 intervjua kasnije,

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

i danas vam mogu reći šta zapravo vodi ka uspehu,

and makes TEDsters tick.

i šta pokreće TEDstere.

And the first thing is passion.

Prva stvar je strast.

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

Frimen Tomas kaže "Vodi me moja strast."

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

TEDsteri rade iz ljubavi, ne rade zbog novca.

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

Karol Koleta kaže "Platio bih nekome da radi ono što ja radim."

And the interesting thing is:

A zanimljiva stvar je to što,

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

ako radite iz ljubavi, novac dođe sam po sebi.

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

Rad. Rupert Mardok mi je rekao "Sve je to naporan rad.

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

Ništa ne dolazi lako. Ipak, puno se i zabavljam."

Da li je rekao da se zabavlja? Rupert? Da!

Did he say fun? Rupert? Yes!

(Laughter)

TEDsteri se zabavljaju dok rade. I rade naporno.

TEDsters do have fun working. And they work hard.

I figured, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics.

Zaključio sam da oni nisu radoholičari. Oni su "zabavoholičari".

(Laughter)

Good!

Biti dobar! Aleks Garden je rekao "Da bi bio uspešan u nečemu moraš se tome posvetiti

(Applause)

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

and get damn good at it."

i postati jako dobar u tome."

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

Nema magije, sve je vežba, vežba i vežba.

And it's focus.

I tu je fokus. Norman Džejvison mi je rekao

Norman Jewison said to me,

"I think it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing."

"Mislim da to sve ima veze sa fokusiranjem na jednu stvar."

And push!

Trudi se. Dejvid Galo je rekao "Trudi se.

David Gallo says, "Push yourself.

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

Fizički, mentalno, moraš se truditi, truditi i truditi."

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

Moraš nadvladati sramežljivost i nesigurnost.

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

Goldi Hon kaže "Uvek sam bila nesigurna u sebe.

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

Nisam bila dovoljno dobra, nisam bila dovoljno pametna.

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

Nisam mislila da ću uspeti."

Now it's not always easy to push yourself,

Nije lako sam sebe gurati

and that's why they invented mothers.

ali zato su izmislili mene. (Smeh)

(Laughter)

(Applause)

Frank Gehry said to me,

Frenk Geri - Frenk Geri mi je rekao

"My mother pushed me."

"Moja majka me je gurala."

(Laughter)

Serve!

Služiti. Šervin Nulend kaže "Bilo je privilegija služiti kao doktor."

Sherwin Nuland says, "It was a privilege to serve as a doctor."

Mnogo mladih mi kaže da žele biti milioneri.

A lot of kids want to be millionaires.

The first thing I say is:

I prva stvar koju im kažem je

"OK, well you can't serve yourself;

"Dobro, ali ne možeš raditi samo za sebe,

you've got to serve others something of value.

moraš i drugima pružiti nešto što ima vrednost.

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

To je način kako ljudi postaju zaista bogati."

Ideas!

Ideje. TEDster Bil Gejts kaže "Imao sam ideju -

TEDster Bill Gates says, "I had an idea:

founding the first micro-computer software company."

osnovati prvu firmu koja se bavi softverom za mikro-računare."

I'd say it was a pretty good idea.

Rekao bih da je to bila prilično dobra ideja.

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

I nema neke velike čarolije u stvaranju dobrih ideja

it's just doing some very simple things.

treba samo raditi par jednostavnih stvari.

And I give lots of evidence.

I potkrepiti ih sa puno primera.

Persist!

Istrajnost. Džo Kraus kaže

Joe Kraus says,

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

"Istrajnost je osnova našeg uspeha."

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

Moraš istrajati uprkos padovima i problemima!

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

To uključuje i kritike, odbijanja, kretene i pritiske."

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

So, the answer to this question is simple:

Prema tome, odgovor na pitanje je jednostavan:

Pay 4,000 bucks and come to TED.

Plati 4000 dolara i dođi na TED.

(Laughter)

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

Ili ako ti to ne uspe, praktikuj ovih osam stvari - i veruj mi,

these are the big eight things that lead to success.

ovo je osam ključnih stvari, koje dovode do uspeha.

Thank you TEDsters for all your interviews!

Hvala vam TEDsteri za sve intervjue!

(Applause)
