So a few years ago,
0
1040
1655
幾年前
我做了件非常勇敢事
00:14
I did something really brave,
1
2719
2937
或者有些人會說是蠢事
00:17
or some would say really stupid.
2
5680
2680
00:20
I ran for Congress.
3
8840
1320
我去參選了議員
00:23
For years, I had existed
safely behind the scenes in politics
safely behind the scenes in politics
4
11040
3736
多年來我一直安穩地
躲在政治活動的幕後
躲在政治活動的幕後
當募款人、活動發起人
00:26
as a fundraiser, as an organizer,
5
14800
3056
但我心裡總是想出來參選的
00:29
but in my heart, I always wanted to run.
6
17880
3200
00:33
The sitting congresswoman
had been in my district since 1992.
had been in my district since 1992.
7

我那個選區的現任女議員
從1992年就任後
從1992年就任後
00:38
She had never lost a race,
8
26160
1896
從沒敗選過 一直連任至今
00:40
and no one had really even run against her
in a Democratic primary.
in a Democratic primary.
9
28080
3880
在民主黨的初選中
也根本沒人能望其項背
也根本沒人能望其項背
00:44
But in my mind, this was my way
10
32680
2856
但我想這正是我要的
00:47
to make a difference,
11
35560
1496
讓改變發生
00:49
to disrupt the status quo.
12
37080
2120
去打破現狀
00:51
The polls, however,
told a very different story.
told a very different story.
13
39960
3360
可是民調結果卻完全是另外一回事
00:55
My pollsters told me
that I was crazy to run,
that I was crazy to run,
14
43920
3216
我的民調分析師說我是瘋了才會參選
00:59
that there was no way that I could win.
15
47160
2920
我根本毫無勝算
01:02
But I ran anyway,
16
50760
1336
但我還是参選了
01:04
and in 2012, I became an upstart
in a New York City congressional race.
in a New York City congressional race.
17
52120
5176
2012年我成為紐約市
議員選戰中的新星
議員選戰中的新星
01:09
I swore I was going to win.
18
57320
3080
當時我真心覺得自己會贏
01:13
I had the endorsement
from the New York Daily News,
from the New York Daily News,
19
61000
2616
紐約日報看好我
01:15
the Wall Street Journal
snapped pictures of me on election day,
snapped pictures of me on election day,
20
63640
3336
華爾街日報選舉日當天放的是我的照片
01:19
and CNBC called it one of the hottest
races in the country.
races in the country.
21
67000
3600
連CNBC都說這是全國最激烈的一場選戰
01:23
I raised money from everyone I knew,
22
71280
2416
我窮盡人脈募集資金
01:25
including Indian aunties
23
73720
1896
包括我的印度阿姨們
01:27
that were just so happy
an Indian girl was running.
an Indian girl was running.
24
75640
2720
她們多開心看見一個
印度女孩出來參選
印度女孩出來參選
01:31
But on election day, the polls were right,
25
79240
3176
但到了選舉日當天，民調是對的
01:34
and I only got 19 percent of the vote,
26
82440
3040
我只得到19%的票數
01:37
and the same papers
that said I was a rising political star
that said I was a rising political star
27
85920
3736
而先前稱我為政壇明日之星的報紙
01:41
now said I wasted 1.3 million dollars
28
89680
4416
現在卻說我白白花費130萬美元
01:46
on 6,321 votes.
29
94120
5016
去換6321票
01:51
Don't do the math.
30
99160
1280
請不要去精算一票到底多貴
01:53
It was humiliating.
31
101440
2040
真是丟臉丟到家了
01:56
Now, before you get the wrong idea,
32
104320
2656
好了，避免誤會，我要先說
01:59
this is not a talk
about the importance of failure.
about the importance of failure.
33
107000
2440
今天的演講沒並有要談失敗的重要性
02:02
Nor is it about leaning in.
34
110040
1640
也跟全力以赴無關
02:04
I tell you the story
of how I ran for Congress
of how I ran for Congress
35
112400
3216
我之所以描述參選議員的過程
02:07
because I was 33 years old
36
115640
2456
是因為當時我已經33歲
02:10
and it was the first time
in my entire life
in my entire life
37
118120
4736
而這卻是我此生第一次
02:14
that I had done something
that was truly brave,
that was truly brave,
38
122880
3656
做了件稱得上勇敢的事情
02:18
where I didn't worry about being perfect.
39
126560
2680
同時不用擔心怎樣才能做得完美
02:21
And I'm not alone:
40
129639
1457
我可不是唯一如此的人
02:23
so many women I talk to tell me
41
131120
1736
我訪談過的許多女性都告訴我
02:24
that they gravitate
towards careers and professions
towards careers and professions
42
132880
2896
她們選擇那些工作和專業領域
是因為早就知道自己可以做得很好
02:27
that they know
they're going to be great in,
they're going to be great in,
43
135800
2096
02:29
that they know they're
going to be perfect in,
going to be perfect in,
44
137920
2376
她們知道自己可以做得盡善盡美
02:32
and it's no wonder why.
45
140320
1816
這一點也不奇怪
02:34
Most girls are taught
to avoid risk and failure.
to avoid risk and failure.
46
142160
3056
大多數的女生被教導
要避免冒險與失敗
要避免冒險與失敗
02:37
We're taught to smile pretty,
47
145240
1776
要笑得端莊
02:39
play it safe, get all A's.
48
147040
2520
不冒險、求安穩、各科拿甲分
02:42
Boys, on the other hand,
49
150320
1696
男生卻截然不同
02:44
are taught to play rough, swing high,
50
152040
2776
他們被教導要玩得粗魯點、盪得高一些
02:46
crawl to the top of the monkey bars
and then just jump off headfirst.
and then just jump off headfirst.
51
154840
4760
爬上單槓頂端
然後頭下腳上地跳下來
然後頭下腳上地跳下來
02:52
And by the time they're adults,
52
160200
1576
等到長大成人之後
02:53
whether they're negotiating a raise
or even asking someone out on a date,
or even asking someone out on a date,
53
161800
4776
不管在要求升遷或是開口邀約時
02:58
they're habituated
to take risk after risk.
to take risk after risk.
54
166600
3896
他們習慣一次又一次地去冒險
03:02
They're rewarded for it.
55
170520
1240
他們是被鼓勵這麼做的
03:04
It's often said in Silicon Valley,
56
172320
2536
在矽谷有一句話是這樣的
03:06
no one even takes you seriously
unless you've had two failed start-ups.
unless you've had two failed start-ups.
57
174880
4280
不會有人把你當一回事
除非你已經歷過兩次創業失敗
除非你已經歷過兩次創業失敗
03:11
In other words,
58
179880
1536
換句話說
03:13
we're raising our girls to be perfect,
59
181440
3096
我們教女孩要追求完美
03:16
and we're raising our boys to be brave.
60
184560
3320
但是教男孩要勇敢無畏
03:21
Some people worry
about our federal deficit,
about our federal deficit,
61
189080
3680
有些人為我們的政府赤字擔憂
03:25
but I, I worry about our bravery deficit.
62
193800
3800
但我則擔心我們的勇氣匱乏
03:30
Our economy, our society,
we're just losing out
we're just losing out
63
198240
3456
我們的經濟、社會都正在走下坡
03:33
because we're not raising
our girls to be brave.
our girls to be brave.
64
201720
2520
因為我們不把女孩養育成勇敢的人
03:36
The bravery deficit is why
women are underrepresented in STEM,
women are underrepresented in STEM,
65
204920
3376
勇氣匱乏正是
為什麼在理工科教育計畫中
03:40
in C-suites, in boardrooms, in Congress,
66
208320
1936
在高階主管群、董事會、國會裡
03:42
and pretty much everywhere you look.
67
210280
2560
幾乎所有舉目所及的地方
女性代表的人數不足的原因
女性代表的人數不足的原因
03:46
In the 1980s, psychologist Carol Dweck
68
214000
3176
在1980年代，心理學家凱蘿．德威克
03:49
looked at how bright fifth graders
handled an assignment
handled an assignment
69
217200
2656
觀察了學業優異的五年級生
是如何應對太難的作業
03:51
that was too difficult for them.
70
219880
1600
03:54
She found that bright girls
were quick to give up.
were quick to give up.
71
222000
4176
她發現聰明的女孩很快就放棄了
03:58
The higher the IQ,
the more likely they were to give up.
the more likely they were to give up.
72
226200
3720
她們的智商愈高，就愈容易放棄
04:02
Bright boys, on the other hand,
73
230520
1736
而聰明的男孩則相反
04:04
found the difficult material
to be a challenge.
to be a challenge.
74
232280
2696
他們把困難點當做一個挑戰
04:07
They found it energizing.
75
235000
1736
精神都來了
04:08
They were more likely
to redouble their efforts.
to redouble their efforts.
76
236760
3200
因此可能會加倍努力
04:12
What's going on?
77
240680
1240
問題出在哪
04:14
Well, at the fifth grade level,
78
242520
1496
其實在五年級的階段
04:16
girls routinely outperform boys
in every subject,
in every subject,
79
244040
3656
女生每一科的表現通常都勝過男生
04:19
including math and science,
80
247720
2136
包括數學和科學
04:21
so it's not a question of ability.
81
249880
2840
所以這不是能力問題
04:25
The difference is in how boys
and girls approach a challenge.
and girls approach a challenge.
82
253560
4120
差別在於男女生
如何處理所面臨的挑戰
如何處理所面臨的挑戰
04:30
And it doesn't just end in fifth grade.
83
258200
2079
而且這不僅止於五年級的孩子
04:32
An HP report found
that men will apply for a job
that men will apply for a job
84
260800
3176
惠普公司的一份報告顯示
男性找工作時
男性找工作時
04:36
if they meet only 60 percent
of the qualifications,
of the qualifications,
85
264000
3640
只要符合六成的門檻
他們就去應徵了
他們就去應徵了
04:40
but women, women will apply
86
268000
2736
但是女性只會去應徵
04:42
only if they meet 100 percent
of the qualifications.
of the qualifications.
87
270760
4576
她們完全符合了門檻的工作
04:47
100 percent.
88
275360
1280
百分之百的符合
04:49
This study is usually invoked
as evidence that, well,
as evidence that, well,
89
277720
3336
這項研究通常被拿來佐證
04:53
women need a little more confidence.
90
281080
1720
女性需要多一點點的自信
04:55
But I think it's evidence
91
283360
1496
但我認為它證明了
04:56
that women have been socialized
to aspire to perfection,
to aspire to perfection,
92
284880
3136
女性是被社會教化成要追求完美
05:00
and they're overly cautious.
93
288040
1536
而且謹慎過頭了
05:01
(Applause)
94
289600
2816
（掌聲）
05:04
And even when we're ambitious,
95
292440
2056
甚至當我們有野心
05:06
even when we're leaning in,
96
294520
2776
當我們想傾注心力的時候
05:09
that socialization of perfection
97
297320
2216
那個社會化的完美性格
05:11
has caused us to take
less risks in our careers.
less risks in our careers.
98
299560
3080
會造成我們在職業生涯上
選擇風險較少的路走
05:15
And so those 600,000 jobs
that are open right now
that are open right now
99
303320
4576
所以有60萬個正在虛位以待的
05:19
in computing and tech,
100
307920
1240
電腦和科技產業的工作
05:21
women are being left behind,
101
309800
1896
可是女性卻被遺忘了
05:23
and it means our economy
is being left behind
is being left behind
102
311720
2656
而這意味著我們也忽略了所有經濟上
05:26
on all the innovation and problems
women would solve
women would solve
103
314400
4176
女性的創新以及
她們可能可以解決的問題
她們可能可以解決的問題
05:30
if they were socialized to be brave
104
318600
2736
前提是假如社會能教她們勇敢
05:33
instead of socialized to be perfect.
105
321360
3080
而不是追求完美的話
05:36
(Applause)
106
324960
3936
（掌聲）
05:40
So in 2012, I started a company
to teach girls to code,
to teach girls to code,
107
328920
4336
因此2012年我創立了一間公司
來教女孩寫程式
來教女孩寫程式
05:45
and what I found
is that by teaching them to code
is that by teaching them to code
108
333280
3056
我發現到，透過教程式編寫
05:48
I had socialized them to be brave.
109
336360
2160
其實我是在培養她們變得勇敢
05:51
Coding, it's an endless process
of trial and error,
of trial and error,
110
339240
4216
程式編寫是一個「不斷檢測
與發現錯誤」的無止境過程
與發現錯誤」的無止境過程
05:55
of trying to get the right command
in the right place,
in the right place,
111
343480
3176
要設法在對的地方，輸入正確的指令
05:58
with sometimes just a semicolon
112
346680
2416
有時候只是差一個分號
06:01
making the difference
between success and failure.
between success and failure.
113
349120
3320
就足以決定成敗
06:04
Code breaks and then it falls apart,
114
352840
2496
程式碼錯了，就全盤皆錯
06:07
and it often takes many, many tries
115
355360
2416
時常要嘗試很多很多次
06:09
until that magical moment
116
357800
2296
奇蹟才會出現
06:12
when what you're trying
to build comes to life.
to build comes to life.
117
360120
3080
你試著建構的東西總算活了起來
06:15
It requires perseverance.
118
363760
2480
這項工作需要毅力
06:18
It requires imperfection.
119
366600
2760
需要不完美
06:22
We immediately see in our program
120
370160
2376
我們馬上就發現
06:24
our girls' fear of not getting it right,
121
372560
2336
參與學程的女孩都害怕犯錯
06:26
of not being perfect.
122
374920
1240
害怕不完美
06:28
Every Girls Who Code teacher
tells me the same story.
tells me the same story.
123
376840
3176
「寫程式的女孩」計畫的每個老師
都告訴我一樣的故事
都告訴我一樣的故事
06:32
During the first week,
when the girls are learning how to code,
when the girls are learning how to code,
124
380040
2976
第一週，女孩們還在學
怎麼編寫程式碼時
怎麼編寫程式碼時
06:35
a student will call her over
and she'll say,
and she'll say,
125
383040
2976
學生會請她過去跟她說
06:38
"I don't know what code to write."
126
386040
2016
「我不知道要寫什麼程式碼」
06:40
The teacher will look at her screen,
127
388080
1936
老師看了看她的螢幕
06:42
and she'll see a blank text editor.
128
390040
1880
只會看到一片空白
06:44
If she didn't know any better,
she'd think that her student
she'd think that her student
129
392640
2816
假如她不夠瞭解，她會覺得她的學生
06:47
spent the past 20 minutes
just staring at the screen.
just staring at the screen.
130
395480
3080
花了20分鐘，只是盯著螢幕發呆
06:51
But if she presses undo a few times,
131
399400
3176
但如果她多按幾下復原鍵
06:54
she'll see that her student
wrote code and then deleted it.
wrote code and then deleted it.
132
402600
3720
她會看見學生其實
寫下程式碼又刪除了
寫下程式碼又刪除了
06:58
She tried, she came close,
133
406840
3256
她試過，她逼近了
07:02
but she didn't get it exactly right.
134
410120
2080
可是還沒做到完全正確
07:05
Instead of showing
the progress that she made,
the progress that she made,
135
413040
2616
她不呈現編寫的進展
07:07
she'd rather show nothing at all.
136
415680
1960
卻寧願給人看一片空白
07:10
Perfection or bust.
137
418160
2840
寧缺勿濫
07:14
It turns out that our girls
are really good at coding,
are really good at coding,
138
422440

後來事實證明
女孩們非常擅長程式編寫

but it's not enough
just to teach them to code.

但只教她們寫程式還不夠

When the guys are struggling
with an assignment,

143
440120
2256
當男生在作業上遇到困難時
他們會走進辦公室說
07:34
they'll come in and they'll say,
144
442400
1576
「教授，我的程式出了一點問題」
07:36
"Professor, there's something
wrong with my code."
wrong with my code."
145
444000
2360
07:38
The girls will come in and say,
146

女生走進來之後則會說
07:40
"Professor, there's something
wrong with me."

147

「教授，我有一些問題」
07:45
We have to begin to undo
the socialization of perfection,

148
453520
3296
我們要開始修正這種
社會化的完美主義
社會化的完美主義
07:48
but we've got to combine it
with building a sisterhood

149
456840
2616
而且必須跟建立姐妹情誼一起做
07:51
that lets girls know
that they are not alone.
that they are not alone.
150
459480
2840
這樣才能讓女孩們知道她們並不孤單
07:55
Because trying harder
is not going to fix a broken system.

151
463000

因為更多的努力
並無法修補一個損壞的系統

07:59
I can't tell you how many women tell me,
152
467680
2256
我沒有辦法告訴你
有多少女性跟我說過
有多少女性跟我說過
08:01
"I'm afraid to raise my hand,

469960
1776
「我害怕舉手
08:03
I'm afraid to ask a question,
154
471760
2136
我害怕問問題
08:05
because I don't want to be the only one
155
473920
2376
因為我不想當那唯一一個
08:08
who doesn't understand,

聽不懂的人
08:10
the only one who is struggling.

08:13
When we teach girls to be brave
158
481840
2896
我們在教女孩如何勇敢的時候
08:16
and we have a supportive network
cheering them on,
cheering them on,
159
484760
3296
還有一個支持網絡來鼓舞她們
08:20
they will build incredible things,
160
488080
3016
於是她們就能創造出很棒的東西
08:23
and I see this every day.
161
491120
2720
這是我每天親眼目睹的
08:26
Take, for instance,
two of our high school students
two of our high school students
162
494520
2616
例如我們有兩個高中生
08:29
who built a game called Tampon Run --
163
497160
2376
建置了一款遊戲叫「衛生棉條大進擊」
08:31
yes, Tampon Run --
164
499560
2456
是的，就是「衛生棉條大進擊」
08:34
to fight against the menstruation taboo
165
502040
2416
她們想透過遊戲的方式來反抗
08:36
and sexism in gaming.
166
504480
2200
談論月經的禁忌以及性別歧視
08:39
Or the Syrian refugee
167
507840
1576
或是有一名敘利亞難民
08:41
who dared show her love
for her new country
for her new country
168
509440

她勇於表現對新國家的熱愛
08:45
by building an app
to help Americans get to the polls.

是良性或惡性的

09:00
in the off chance
that she can save her daddy's life
that she can save her daddy's life
172
528120
3376
希望藉此可以拯救她爸爸的生命
09:03
because he has cancer.
173
531520
2560
因為他罹患了癌症
09:07
These are just
three examples of thousands,

174
535000
4400
這僅僅是數千個例子中的三個
09:12
thousands of girls who have been
socialized to be imperfect,

175
540120
4096
有上千名女孩已經
被培養得能夠接受缺陷

09:16
who have learned to keep trying,
who have learned perseverance.
who have learned perseverance.
176
544240
2953
她們學會不斷的嘗試
學會了不屈不撓
學會了不屈不撓
09:19
And whether they become coders
177
547217
1999
無論她們未來是否成為寫程式的人
09:21
or the next Hillary Clinton or Beyoncé,
178
549240
2656
還是下一個希拉蕊或碧昂絲
09:23
they will not defer their dreams.
179
551920
3320
她們都不會再延宕自己的夢想了
09:27
And those dreams have never been
more important for our country.
more important for our country.
180
555960
4480
而那些夢想對我們的國家無比重要
09:33
For the American economy,
for any economy to grow,
for any economy to grow,
181
561320
3136
如果美國的經濟
或任何一個國家的經濟要成長
或任何一個國家的經濟要成長
09:36
to truly innovate,
182
564480
2136
要真正的創新
09:38
we cannot leave behind
half our population.
half our population.
183
566640
3200
就不能忽略我們一半的人口
09:42
We have to socialize our girls
to be comfortable with imperfection,
to be comfortable with imperfection,
184
570640
3696
我們得要教女孩們接納缺點
09:46
and we've got to do it now.
185
574360
2920
而且現在就要開始行動
09:50
We cannot wait for them
to learn how to be brave like I did
to learn how to be brave like I did
186
578400
4216
我們不能等著她們像我一樣
09:54
when I was 33 years old.
187
582640
2080
33歲才來學著勇敢
09:57
We have to teach them
to be brave in schools
to be brave in schools
188
585240
2336
我們必須在學校裡就教她們勇敢
09:59
and early in their careers,
189
587600
1736
當她們還是職場新人的時候
10:01
when it has the most potential
to impact their lives
to impact their lives
190
589360
3136
這是最能夠影響她們的一生
10:04
and the lives of others,
191
592520
2016
以及相關人等的生命的時候
10:06
and we have to show them
that they will be loved and accepted
that they will be loved and accepted
192
594560
4776
我們要讓她們知道
她們終將被愛、被接受
她們終將被愛、被接受
10:11
not for being perfect
193
599360
3056
並非因為她們完美無缺
10:14
but for being courageous.
194
602440
2640
而是因為她們勇往直前
10:17
And so I need each of you
to tell every young woman you know --
to tell every young woman you know --
195
605840
3816
所以我需要你們去告訴
每一個你認識的年輕女性
每一個你認識的年輕女性
10:21
your sister, your niece,
your employee, your colleague --
your employee, your colleague --
196
609680
3416
你的姐妹、外甥女、員工、同事...
10:25
to be comfortable with imperfection,
197
613120
2560
要接納缺點
10:28
because when we teach
girls to be imperfect,
girls to be imperfect,
198
616360
2496
因為當我們教會她們接受不完美
10:30
and we help them leverage it,
199
618880
2576
並且幫助她們去運用它
10:33
we will build a movement
of young women who are brave
of young women who are brave
200
621480
3896
我們將能創造出一股
勇敢年輕女性的力量
勇敢年輕女性的力量
10:37
and who will build
a better world for themselves
a better world for themselves
201
625400
3376
而她們又會為自己
10:40
and for each and every one of us.
202
628800
3640
也為我們每個人創建一個更好的世界
10:45

這個數量非常驚人
11:19
because last year we only graduated
7,500 women in computer science.

214
667320
5296
因為去年我們在電腦科學方面
只有7500位女性畢業

11:24
Like, the problem is so bad

你看這狀況有多糟
11:27
that we can make
that type of change quickly.
