Što to tebe čini tobom? Psiholozi vole pričati o našim osobinama ili definiranim karakteristikama koje nas čine nama. No, Briana Littlea više zanimaju trenutci u kojima nadvladamo te osobine - ponekad jer to naša kultura zahtijeva od nas te ponekad jer mi to zahtijevamo od nas samih. Pridruži se Littleu u njegovom analiziranju iznenađujućih razlika između introverta i ekstroverta te objašnjenju zašto se tvoja osobnost može prilagođavati i više nego što ti misliš.

I've had the opportunity
over the last couple of days

Zadnjih nekoliko dana sam imao priliku
00:23
of listening in on some
of your conversations

2586
načuti neke od vaših razgovora
00:26
and watching you interact with each other.
5
14984
2166
i promatrati vaše međusobne interakcije.
00:29
And I think it's fair to say, already,
6
17174
2525
I mislim da se, već sada, može reći
00:31
that there are 47 people in this audience,
7
19723
5188
da postoji 47 osoba u ovoj publici koje
00:37
at this moment,

00:44
And I thought you might
like to know who you are.

I mislio sam da bi ste možda
htjeli saznati tko ste.
htjeli saznati tko ste.
00:47
(Laughter)
12
35968
1423
(Smijeh)
00:49
But instead of pointing at you,
13
37415
1687
Ali umjesto da pokazujem na vas,
00:51
which would be gratuitous and intrusive,
14
39126
3198
što bi bilo nepotrebno i nametljivo,
00:54
I thought I would tell you
a few facts and stories,

15

mislio sam vam ispričati
nekoliko činjenica i priča

in which you may catch

I'm in the field of research

od neurona do naracije.
01:15
And what we try to do,
20
63337
1453
I ono što mi pokušavamo,
01:17
in our own way,
21
65601
1563
na naš vlastiti način,
01:19
is to make sense of how each of us --
22
67188
2744
jest objasniti kako je svatko od nas
01:22
each of you --
23
70793
1226
svatko od vas
01:24
is, in certain respects,
24
72467
2078
u određenim aspektima
01:26
like all other people,
25
74569
1363
poput svih ostali ljudi,
01:28
like some other people

76993
1384
poput nekih ljudi,
01:31
and like no other person.
27
79243
2018
i poput nijedne osobe.
01:34
Now, already you may
be saying of yourself,
be saying of yourself,
28
82579
3167
Možda odmah govorite za sebe
01:37
"I'm not intriguing.
29
85770
1745
"Ja nisam intrigantan.
01:41
I am the 46th most boring person
in the Western Hemisphere."

30
89597
5449
Ja sam 46. najdosadnija osoba
u Zapadnoj polutki."

01:47
Or you may say of yourself,
31
95895
2289
ili možda kažete za sebe,
01:50
"I am intriguing,
32
98208
1907
"Ja sam intrigantan
01:53
even if I am regarded by most people
as a great, thundering twit."

33
101252
3951
Iako me većina ljudi smatra
velikim, glasnim čudakom."
velikim, glasnim čudakom."
01:57
(Laughter)
34
105227
1190
(Smijeh)
01:58
But it is your self-diagnosed boringness
and your inherent "twitiness"
and your inherent "twitiness"
35
106441
5860
Upravo je tvoja samodijagnoza dosade
i urođena "čudnovatost"

02:04
that makes me, as a psychologist,
really fascinated by you.
really fascinated by you.
36
112325
4427
ono čime mene kao psihologa fasciniraš.
02:09
So let me explain why this is so.
37
117172
2351
Dakle da pojasnim zašto je to tako.
02:12
One of the most influential approaches
in personality science

120284
4161
Jedno od najutjecajnijih pristupa
u znanosti o osobnosti
u znanosti o osobnosti
02:16
is known as trait psychology,
39
124469
1590
poznat je kao psihologija ličnosti
02:18
and it aligns you along five dimensions
which are normally distributed,

126083

koja svrstava osobu u 5 dimenzija,
koje su normalno podijeljene.

02:23
and that describe universally held aspects
of difference between people.

41
131476
6990
I kojima se opisuju opće značajke
različitosti između ljudi.
različitosti između ljudi.
02:31
They spell out the acronym OCEAN.
42
139379
2329
Zajedno tvore akronim "OCEAN". (OSEUN)
02:34
So, "O" stands for "open to experience,"
43
142105
3051
"O" znači otvorenost
02:37
versus those who are more closed.
44
145180
2351
suprotno onima koji su više zatvoreni.
02:39
"C" stands for "conscientiousness,"
45
147555
3175
"S" znači savjesnost
02:42
in contrast to those with a more
lackadaisical approach to life.

46
150754
3644
za razliku od onih koji
vode više pasivan život.
vode više pasivan život.
02:46
"E" -- "extroversion," in contrast
to more introverted people.
to more introverted people.
47
154422
4643
"E"- ekstraverzija nasuprot
više introvertiranim osobama.
više introvertiranim osobama.
02:51
"A" -- "agreeable individuals,"
48
159089
2692
"U" - "ugodni individualci"
02:53
in contrast to those
decidedly not agreeable.
decidedly not agreeable.
49
161805
3422
za razliku od onih
koji su izrazito neugodni.
koji su izrazito neugodni.
02:57
And "N" -- "neurotic individuals,"
50
165599
2644
i "N" -- "neurotično pojedinci",
03:00
in contrast to those who are more stable.
51
168267
2673
za razliku od onih koji su stabilniji.
03:04
All of these dimensions have
implications for our well-being,
implications for our well-being,
52
172268
3390
Ove sve dimenzije imaju učinak
na naše blagostanje
na naše blagostanje
03:07
for how our life goes.
53
175682
2506
za vrijeme našega života.
03:10
And so we know that, for example,
54
178762
2349
I tako znamo da su, npr.
03:13
openness and conscientiousness
are very good predictors of life success,
are very good predictors of life success,
55
181135
4975
otvorenost i savjesnost
dobri pokazatelji za uspješan život,
dobri pokazatelji za uspješan život,
03:18
but the open people achieve that success
through being audacious

56
186829
4377
ali otvoreni ljudi ostvaruju taj uspjeh
svojom neustrašivosti
svojom neustrašivosti
03:23
and, occasionally, odd.
57
191230
2178
te povremenim čudnim ponašanjem.
03:26
The conscientious people
achieve it through sticking to deadlines,

58
194077
4365
Savjesni ljudi to postižu
pridržavanjem rokova,

to persevering, as well as
having some passion.
having some passion.
59
198466
3922
ustrajnošću te pomoću strasti.
03:35
Extroversion and agreeableness
are both conducive
are both conducive
60
203662
3886
Ekstrovertiranost i ugodnost
se oboje dobro slažu
se oboje dobro slažu
03:39
to working well with people.
61
207572
2578
u radu s ljudima.
03:42
Extroverts, for example,
I find intriguing.
I find intriguing.
62
210866
2988
Ekstroverte npr. smatram intrigantnima.
03:45
With my classes, I sometimes
give them a basic fact
give them a basic fact
63
213878
2983
Svojim studentima nekada
kažem osnovnu činjenicu

03:48
that might be revealing
with respect to their personality:

64
216885
2967
koja im možda može nešto otkriti
u pogledu na njihovu osobnost.
u pogledu na njihovu osobnost.
03:52
I tell them that it is virtually
impossible for adults
impossible for adults
65
220356
5046
Kažem da je za odrasle
gotovo nemoguće
gotovo nemoguće
03:57
to lick the outside of their own elbow.
66
225426
3837
da poližu vlastiti lakat.
04:01
(Laughter)
67
229287
1254
(Smijeh)
04:02
Did you know that?
68
230565
1384
Jeste li to znali?
04:05
Already, some of you have tried
to lick the outside of your own elbow.
to lick the outside of your own elbow.
69
233505
4189
Neki od vas su već pokušali
polizati svoj lakat.
polizati svoj lakat.
04:09
But extroverts amongst you
70
237718
1776
Ali ekstroverti među vama
04:11
are probably those
who have not only tried,
who have not only tried,
71
239518
2611
su vjerovatno oni koji
koji nisu samo pokušali
koji nisu samo pokušali
04:14
but they have successfully
licked the elbow
licked the elbow
72
242153
2490
već i uspješno polizali lakat
04:16
of the person sitting next to them.
73
244667
1691
osobe pokraj.
04:18
(Laughter)
74
246382
1002
(Smijeh)
04:19
Those are the extroverts.
75
247408
1685
To su ekstroverti.
04:21
Let me deal in a bit more detail
with extroversion,
with extroversion,
76
249117
3419
Malo ću se detaljnije
pozabaviti sa ekstroverzijom
pozabaviti sa ekstroverzijom
04:24
because it's consequential
and it's intriguing,
and it's intriguing,
77
252560
2959
jer je značajna i intrigantna
04:27
and it helps us understand
what I call our three natures.
what I call our three natures.
78
255543
3481
te nam pomaže u shvaćanju,
što ja nazivam, naše tri prirode.
što ja nazivam, naše tri prirode.
04:31
First, our biogenic nature --
our neurophysiology.

79
259048

Prva je naša biogenetska priroda,
naša neuropsihologija.
naša neuropsihologija.
04:34
Second, our sociogenic or second nature,
80
262743
2983
Druga je naša sociogenetička
ili druga priroda,
ili druga priroda,
04:38
which has to do with the cultural
and social aspects of our lives.

društvene aspekte našeg života.

04:42
And third, what makes you
individually you -- idiosyncratic --

82
270744
6903
I treća je ono što nas čini individualcem,
idiosinkrazija

04:50
what I call your "idiogenic" nature.
83
278190
3046
ili što ja zovem "idiogenska" priroda.
04:53
Let me explain.
84
281260
1156
Da vam pojasnim.
04:56
One of the things that characterizes
extroverts is they need stimulation.
extroverts is they need stimulation.
85
284901
3485
Jedno od obilježja ekstroverta je
potreba za stimulacijom.
potreba za stimulacijom.
05:00
And that stimulation can be achieved
by finding things that are exciting:
by finding things that are exciting:
86
288971
4724
I ta se stimulacija postiže pronalaskom
stvari koje su uzbudljive:
stvari koje su uzbudljive:
05:05
loud noises, parties
and social events here at TED --
and social events here at TED --
87
293719
4037
glasni zvukovi, tulumi
i društveni događaji na TED-u.
i društveni događaji na TED-u.
05:09
you see the extroverts
forming a magnetic core.
forming a magnetic core.
88
297780
3227
Naime ekstoverti tvore magnetsku jezgru.
05:13
They all gather together.
89
301031
1659
Okupljaju se.
05:14
And I've seen you.
90
302714
1415
Vidio sam vas.
05:16
The introverts are more likely
to spend time in the quiet spaces
to spend time in the quiet spaces
91
304153
3323
Introverti provode više vrijeme
na mirnijim mjestima
na mirnijim mjestima
05:19
up on the second floor,
92
307500
1823
na drugome katu
05:21
where they are able
to reduce stimulation --
to reduce stimulation --
93
309347
3792
gdje mogu sniziti stimulaciju
05:25
and may be misconstrued
as being antisocial,
as being antisocial,
94
313163
3935
te ih se može pogrešno shvatiti
kao nedruštvene osobe,
kao nedruštvene osobe,
05:29
but you're not necessarily antisocial.
95
317122
2998
ali oni nisu nužno nedruštveni.
05:33
It may be that you simply realize
that you do better
that you do better
96
321310
2898
Jednostavno shvatiš da ti je bolje
05:37
when you have a chance
to lower that level of stimulation.
to lower that level of stimulation.
97
325436
4411
kada možeš smanjiti
razinu vanjske stimulacije.
razinu vanjske stimulacije.
05:42
Sometimes it's an internal
stimulant, from your body.
stimulant, from your body.
98
330998
4148
Nekad su to interni stimulasni
koji dolaze iz vlastitoga tijela
koji dolaze iz vlastitoga tijela
05:47
Caffeine, for example, works much better
with extroverts than it does introverts.
with extroverts than it does introverts.
99
335170
4915
kofein, na primjer, bolje djeluje
kod ekstroverta nego interoverta.
kod ekstroverta nego interoverta.
05:52
When extroverts come into the office
at nine o'clock in the morning
at nine o'clock in the morning
100
340109
3179
Kada ekstroverti dođu u ured u 9 ujutro
05:55
and say, "I really need a cup of coffee,"
101
343312
2885
i kažu "Stvarno mi treba šalica kave",
05:58
they're not kidding --
102
346221
1151
ne šale se.
05:59
they really do.
103
347396
1173
Stvarno im treba.
06:01
Introverts do not do as well,
104
349531
1806
Introvertima to ne ide u korist,
06:03
particularly if the tasks
they're engaged in --
they're engaged in --
105
351361
2517
osobito ako su zadaci u kojima sudjeluju,
06:06
and they've had some coffee --
106
354913
1545
a popili su kavu,
06:08
if those tasks are speeded,
107
356482
2138
ako su ti zadaci ubrzani
06:10
and if they're quantitative,
108
358644
1879
i ako su kvantitativni,
06:12
introverts may give the appearance
of not being particularly quantitative.
of not being particularly quantitative.
109
360547
4394
introverti mogu ostavititi dojam
da se ne ponašaju posebno kvantitativno.
da se ne ponašaju posebno kvantitativno.
06:17
But it's a misconstrual.
110
365580
1640
No to je progreška.
06:19
So here are the consequences
that are really quite intriguing:
that are really quite intriguing:
111
367244
3044
Dakle, ovo su posljedice
koje su poprilično intrigantne:
koje su poprilično intrigantne:
06:22
we're not always what seem to be,
112
370312
2083
nismo uvijek onakvi kakvima se činimo
06:24
and that takes me to my next point.
113
372419
3284
i to me dovodi do sljedeće stavke.
06:28
I should say, before getting to this,
114
376196
2556
Moram prvo reći, prije nego pređem na ovo,
06:30
something about sexual intercourse,
115
378776
2680
nešto o spolnom odnosu
06:33
although I may not have time.
116
381480
2101
iako nemam baš vremena.
06:35
And so, if you would like me to --
117
383605
2872
Dakle ako biste željeli da
06:38
yes, you would?
118
386501
1151
da, želite?
06:39
OK.
119
387676
1151
OK.
06:40
(Laughter)
120
388851
1085
(Smijeh)
06:41
There are studies done
121
389960
1160
Postoje istraživanja
06:43
on the frequency with which
individuals engage in the conjugal act,
individuals engage in the conjugal act,
122
391144
5325
o učestalosti upuštanja
individualaca u bračni čin
individualaca u bračni čin
06:49
as broken down by male, female;
introvert, extrovert.
introvert, extrovert.
123
397406
3239
na temelju muškarca i žene,
introverta, ekstroverta.
introverta, ekstroverta.
06:53
So I ask you:
124
401100
1151
Stoga vas pitam:
06:54
How many times per minute --
125
402275
2072
Koliko puta u minuti,
06:57
oh, I'm sorry, that was a rat study --
126
405162
1884
oprostite, to je studija na štakorima,
06:59
(Laughter)
127
407070
2007
(Smijeh)
07:02
How many times per month
128
410151
1802
Koliko se puta mjesečno
07:06
do introverted men engage in the act?
129
414715
3259
introvertirani muškarci
upuštaju u akciju?
upuštaju u akciju?
07:10
3.0.
130
418486
1390
3,0
07:11
Extroverted men?
131
419900
1632
Ekstrovertirani muškarci?
07:13
More or less?
132
421556
1610
Više ili manje?
07:15
Yes, more.
133
423616
1628
Da, više.
07:17
5.5 -- almost twice as much.
134
425607
2367
5,5. Skoro pa dvostruko više.
07:21
Introverted women: 3.1.
135
429264
2568
Introvertirane žene: 3,1.
07:23
Extroverted women?
136
431856
1596
Ekstrovertirane žene?
07:25
Frankly, speaking as an introverted male,
137
433476
3346
Iskreno, govoreći kao
intovertirani muškarac,
intovertirani muškarac,
07:28
which I will explain later --
138
436846
1737
što ću kasnije pojasniti,
07:30
they are heroic.
139
438607
1581
one su hrabre.
07:32
7.5.
140
440973
1775
7,5.
07:35
They not only handle
all the male extroverts,
all the male extroverts,
141
443782
2352
Ne samo da svladaju sve
ekstrovertirane muškarce
ekstrovertirane muškarce
07:38
they pick up a few introverts as well.
142
446158
2093
već i pokupe par introvertiranih.
07:40
(Laughter)
143
448275
1896
(Smijeh)
07:42
(Applause)
144
450195
2320
(Pljesak)
07:48
We communicate differently,
extroverts and introverts.
extroverts and introverts.
145
456796
4301
Drugačije komuniciramo,
ekstroverti i introverti.
ekstroverti i introverti.
07:54
Extroverts, when they interact,
146
462576
1506
Ekstroverti kada komuniciraju
07:56
want to have lots of social encounter
punctuated by closeness.
punctuated by closeness.
147
464106
4465
žele imati puno društvenih susreta
koji su isprekidani bliskosti.
koji su isprekidani bliskosti.
08:00
They'd like to stand close
for comfortable communication.
for comfortable communication.
148
468595
2991
Vole stajati blizu za
ugodniju komunikaciju.
ugodniju komunikaciju.
08:04
They like to have a lot of eye contact,
149
472547
2199
Vole imati puno kontakta očima
08:06
or mutual gaze.
150
474770
1344
ili uzajamnih pogleda.
08:09
We found in some research
151
477241
1207
Otkrili smo straživanjima
08:10
that they use more diminutive terms
when they meet somebody.
when they meet somebody.
152
478472
2998
da koriste više deminutivnih termina
kada nekoga upoznaju.
kada nekoga upoznaju.
08:13
So when an extrovert meets a Charles,
153
481873
2713
Dakle, kada ekstrovert upozna Charlesa
08:16
it rapidly becomes "Charlie,"
and then "Chuck,"
and then "Chuck,"
154
484610
2885
on ubrzo postaje Charlie i zatim Chuck
08:19
and then "Chuckles Baby."
155
487519
1679
i onda Chuckles dušo.
08:21
(Laughter)
156
489222
1492
(Smijeh)
08:23
Whereas for introverts,
157
491032
1405
Dok kod introverta
08:24
it remains "Charles," until he's given
a pass to be more intimate
a pass to be more intimate
158
492461
4905
on ostaje Charles dok ne dobije
dopuštenje za većom bliškošću
dopuštenje za većom bliškošću
08:29
by the person he's talking to.
159
497390
2220
od osobe s kojom priča.
08:32
We speak differently.
160
500044
2785
Komuniciramo drugačije.
08:36
Extroverts prefer black-and-white,
concrete, simple language.
concrete, simple language.
161
504934
5237
Ekstroverti preferiraju crno-bijeli,
konkretni, jednostavni jezik.
konkretni, jednostavni jezik.
08:43
Introverts prefer --
and I must again tell you
and I must again tell you
162
511854
3794
Introverti pereferiraju,
i ponovno ponavljam,
i ponovno ponavljam,
08:47
that I am as extreme an introvert
as you could possibly imagine --
as you could possibly imagine --
163
515672
4357
da sam toliki introvert
da si ne možete ni zamisliti,
da si ne možete ni zamisliti,
08:52
we speak differently.
164
520853
1717
komuniciramo drugačije.
08:54
We prefer contextually complex,
165
522594
3995
Mi preferiramo kontekstualno kompleksne,
08:58
contingent,
166
526613
1932
zavisne,
09:00
weasel-word sentences --
167
528569
2016
lukave rečenice
09:02
(Laughter)
168
530609
1023
(Smijeh)
09:03
More or less.
169
531656
1362
Više ili manje.
09:05
(Laughter)
170
533385
1436
(Smijeh)
09:06
As it were.
171
534845
1200
Takoreći.
09:08
(Laughter)
172
536069
1015
(Smijeh)
09:09
Not to put too fine a point upon it --
173
537108
2000
Bez okolišanja
09:11
like that.
174
539848
1173
u vezi toga.
09:13
When we talk,
175
541955
1402
Dok razgovaramo
09:15
we sometimes talk past each other.
176
543381
1742
ponekad svako priča svoje.
09:17
I had a consulting contract
I shared with a colleague
I shared with a colleague
177
545724
2628
Imao sam zajednički

178
548376
3004
koji se razlikuje od mene
koliko je moguće.

09:23
First, his name is Tom.
179
551739
1779
Prvo, njegovo ime je Tom.
09:26
Mine isn't.
180
554499
1214
Moje nije.
09:27
(Laughter)
181
555737
1271
(Smijeh)
09:29
Secondly, he's six foot five.
182
557032
1931
Drugo, on je visok oko 2 m,
09:30
I have a tendency not to be.
183
558987
1952
ja baš nisam.
09:32
(Laughter)
184
560963
1043
(Smijeh)
09:34
And thirdly, he's as extroverted
a person as you could find.
a person as you could find.
185
562030
3723
I treće, on je najekstovertnija osoba
koju možete upoznati.
koju možete upoznati.
09:37
I am seriously introverted.
186
565777
2380
Ja sam teški introvert.
09:40
I overload so much,
187
568670
1695
Toliko se opteretim
09:42
I can't even have a cup of coffee
after three in the afternoon
after three in the afternoon
188
570389
4814
da poslije tri popodne ne mogu
popit ni šalicu kave

09:47
and expect to sleep in the evening.
189
575227
2288
i očekivati san navečer.
09:50
We had seconded to this project
a fellow called Michael.

190
578178
3952
U projekt nam je bio dodijeljen
kolega po imenu Micahel.

09:55
And Michael almost brought
the project to a crashing halt.
the project to a crashing halt.
191
583320
4172
I Michael je projekt skoro
doveo do zastoja.
doveo do zastoja.
10:00
So the person who seconded him
asked Tom and me,
asked Tom and me,
192
588528
3796
Osoba koja ga nam je dodijelila
pitala je Toma i mene
pitala je Toma i mene
10:05
"What do you make of Michael?"
193
593244
1459
"Što mislite o Michaelu?".
10:06
Well, I'll tell you
what Tom said in a minute.
what Tom said in a minute.
194
594727
2270
Reći ću vam što je Tom
odgovorio za minutu.
odgovorio za minutu.
10:09
He spoke in classic "extrovert-ese."
195
597021
2316
Pričao je klasični "ekstrovertski".
10:11
And here is how extroverted ears
heard what I said,
heard what I said,
196
599955
3575
I evo kako su ekstrovertirane uši
shvatile ono što sam rekao,
shvatile ono što sam rekao,
10:15
which is actually pretty accurate.
197
603554
1953
što je zapravo prilično točno.
10:17
I said, "Well Michael does have
a tendency at times
a tendency at times
198
605531
4260
Rekao sam, "Pa Michael
ima nekad sklonost

10:22
of behaving in a way
that some of us might see
that some of us might see
199
610385
3286
ponašati se na način
koji se nekima od nas čini
koji se nekima od nas čini
10:26
as perhaps more assertive
than is normally called for."
than is normally called for."
200
614489
4135
nešto izravnije nego što je uobičajeno."
10:30
(Laughter)
201
618941
2310
(Smijeh)
10:33
Tom rolled his eyes and he said,
202
621611
1777
Tom je zakolutao očima i rekao
10:35
"Brian, that's what I said:
203
623412
2529
"Briane, evo što sam ja rekao:
10:38
he's an asshole!"
204
626629
1400
On je seronja!"
10:40
(Laughter)
205
628053
2177
(Smijeh)
10:42
(Applause)
206
630254
1821
(Pljesak)
10:45
Now, as an introvert,
207
633509
1267
Kao introvert
10:46
I might gently allude to certain
"assholic" qualities
"assholic" qualities
208
634800
5181
ću suptilno aludirati na određene
"seronjaste" osobine
"seronjaste" osobine
10:52
in this man's behavior,
209
640005
1295
u ponašanju te osobe,
10:53
but I'm not going to lunge for the a-word.
210
641324
2804
ali neću posegnuti za s-riječi.
10:56
(Laughter)
211
644152
1776
(Smijeh)
10:59
But the extrovert says,
212
647228
1266
Ali ekstrovert kaže,
11:00
"If he walks like one, if he talks
like one, I call him one."
like one, I call him one."
213
648518
2874
"Ako hoda kao jedan, ako priča
kao jedan, zovem ga tako."
kao jedan, zovem ga tako."
11:03
And we go past each other.
214
651416
1412
i raziđemo se.
11:05
Now is this something
that we should be heedful of?
that we should be heedful of?
215
653498
3966
Ovo je nešto na čega
bi se trebali obazirati?
bi se trebali obazirati?
11:09
Of course.
216
657488
1166
Naravno.
11:10
It's important that we know this.
217
658678
1584
Ovo je bitno znati.
11:12
Is that all we are?
218
660286
1539
Je li to sve što nas čini?
11:14
Are we just a bunch of traits?
219
662670
2041
Jesmo li mi samo hrpa osobina?
11:17
No, we're not.
220
665563
1262
Ne, nismo.
11:20
Remember, you're like some other people
221
668116
2256
Upamtite, mi smo poput ostalih ljudi
11:23
and like no other person.
222
671266
1709
i posve drugačiji od ostalih ljudi.
11:25
How about that idiosyncratic you?
223
673487
2435
Što je sa idiosinkrazijskim nama?
11:28
As Elizabeth or as George,
224
676485
3251
Kao Elizabeta ili kao George,
11:31
you may share your extroversion
or your neuroticism.
or your neuroticism.
225
679760
2880
možete dijeliti svoju ekstraverziju ili
svoj neuroticizam,
svoj neuroticizam,
11:36
But are there some distinctively
Elizabethan features of your behavior,
Elizabethan features of your behavior,
226
684251
4007
ali postoje li posebna elizabetska
obilježja svojstvena za naše ponašanje,
obilježja svojstvena za naše ponašanje,
11:40
or Georgian of yours,
227
688282
2197
Ili georgska
11:43
that make us understand you
better than just a bunch of traits?
better than just a bunch of traits?
228
691732
3850
koja nam pomažu shvatit nekoga
dalje od hrpe osobina?
dalje od hrpe osobina?
11:48
That make us love you?
229
696240
2403
Koja nas tjeraju da nekoga volimo?
11:51
Not just because you're
a certain type of person.
a certain type of person.
230
699461
2994
Ne samo jer si određeni tip osobe.
11:55
I'm uncomfortable putting
people in pigeonholes.
people in pigeonholes.
231
703188
2624
Ne volim stavljati ljude u pretince.
11:59
I don't even think pigeons
belong in pigeonholes.
belong in pigeonholes.
232
707081
2591
Mislim da ni golubovi
ne pripadaju u njih.
ne pripadaju u njih.
12:03
So what is it that makes us different?
233
711235
2069
Što je onda to što nas razlikuje?
12:06
It's the doings that we have
in our life -- the personal projects.
in our life -- the personal projects.
234
714004
4897
To su naša postignuća u životu,
naši osobni projekti.
naši osobni projekti.
12:11
You have a personal project right now,
235
719403
1821
Vi upravo provodite osobni projekt,
12:13
but nobody may know it here.
236
721248
3086
ali nitko ovdje ne mora znati.
12:17
It relates to your kid --
237
725504
1808
Vezano je za vaše dijete.
12:19
you've been back three times
to the hospital,
to the hospital,
238
727336
2200
Bili ste tri puta u bolnici
12:21
and they still don't know what's wrong.
239
729560
1896
i dalje se ne zna što nije u redu,
12:25
Or it could be your mom.
240
733373
1324
ili može biti o vašoj majci
12:28
And you'd been acting out of character.
241
736092
2102
i ponašali ste se izvan sebe.
12:30
These are free traits.
242
738218
1562
To su osobine koje sami birate.
12:33
You're very agreeable,
but you act disagreeably
but you act disagreeably
243
741521
3080
Ugodni ste, ali se ponašate neugodno
12:36
in order to break down those barriers
of administrative torpor
of administrative torpor
244
744625
3873
kako bi srušili te barijere
administrativne tromosti
administrativne tromosti
12:40
in the hospital,
245
748522
1151
u bolnici,
12:41
to get something
for your mom or your child.
for your mom or your child.
246
749697
2626
kako bi dobili nešto
za vašu majku ili vaše dijete.
za vašu majku ili vaše dijete.
12:45
What are these free traits?
247
753814
1507
Što su te slobodne osobine?
12:47
They're where were enact a script
248
755345
2570
Unutar njih provodimo scenarij
12:49
in order to advance
a core project in our lives.
a core project in our lives.
249
757939
2653
kako bi uzdigli središnji projekt
u našem životu.
u našem životu.
12:53
And they are what matters.
250
761744
2058
I one su ono što je važno.
12:55
Don't ask people what type you are;
251
763826
2272
Ne pitajte ljude koji su tip,
12:58
ask them, "What are your core
projects in your life?"
projects in your life?"
252
766742
2754
pitajte te ih, "Koji su
tvoji središnji projekti'?"
tvoji središnji projekti'?"
13:01
And we enact those free traits.
253
769520
1784
I mi provedemo te slobodne osobine.
13:03
I'm an introvert,
254
771328
1315
Ja sam introvert,
13:04
but I have a core project,
which is to profess.
which is to profess.
255
772667
4586
ali imam središnji projekt,
a to je podučavati.
a to je podučavati.
13:09
I'm a professor.
256
777640
1208
Ja sam profesor
13:11
And I adore my students,
257
779798
1857
i obožavam svoje studente
13:15
and I adore my field.
258
783080
1587
i svoje istraživačko polje.
13:16
And I can't wait to tell them
about what's new, what's exciting,
about what's new, what's exciting,
259
784691
5778
I jedva im čekam reći
što je novo, što je interesantno,
što je novo, što je interesantno,
13:23
what I can't wait to tell them about.
260
791366
2252
sve im to jedva čekam reći.
13:25
And so I act in an extroverted way,
261
793642
1820
I zato se ponašam na
ekstrovertan način
ekstrovertan način
13:27
because at eight in the morning,
262
795486
1528
jer je u osam ujutro
13:29
the students need a little bit of humor,
263
797038
2344
studentima je potrebno malo humora,
13:31
a little bit of engagement
to keep them going
to keep them going
264
799406
2722
malo motivacije da idu dalje
13:34
in arduous days of study.
265

But we need to be very careful
266

Ali moramo biti jako oprezni
13:38
when we act protractedly out of character.

kada se ponašamo drugačije.
13:42
Sometimes we may find
that we don't take care of ourselves.

I sometimes go to the men's room

ja nekad idem u toalet
14:08
to escape the slings and arrows
of outrageous extroverts.

I remember one particular day
when I was retired to a cubicle,

277
842177

Sjećam se jednog dana
kad sam pobjegao u kabinu

14:20
trying to avoid overstimulation.
278
848573

kako bi izbjegao preveliku stimulaciju.
14:23
And a real extrovert came
in beside me -- not right in my cubicle,
in beside me -- not right in my cubicle,
279

I pravi ekstrovert je stao iza mene.
Ne baš u moju kabinu,

14:28
but in the next cubicle over --

ali u kabinu pokraj

and I could hear various
evacuatory noises,

which we hate -- even our own,

14:35
that's why we flush

Zato puštamo vodu i prije i nakon.

(Laughter)

(Smijeh)
14:40
And then I heard
this gravelly voice saying,

I onda sam čuo hrapavi glas govoreći

"Hey, is that Dr. Little?"

"Hej, jel to doktor Little?"

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Brian Little - Personality researcherCambridge research professor Brian Little analyzes and redefines the threads of our personalities -- and suggests ways we can transform ourselves.
Why you should listen
Brian Little is an unapologetic introvert -- but in front of a classroom or a lecture hall, he delivers impassioned and witty explorations of contemporary personality psychology. In Little's view, we are as driven by spontaneous, "out of character" moments (and the projects we are passionate about) as we are by innate and learned traits.
Little's book Me, Myself and Us not only beautifully outlines Little's personality theories, but also imparts potentially life-changing advice for readers, while it warns of the hidden costs of hiding your true personality.
