I'm used to thinking of the TED audience as a wonderful collection

3000
Smatrao sam da je TED publika prelijepa zbirka
00:18
of some of the most effective, intelligent,
1

2000
nekih najuspješnijih, inteligentnih,
00:20
intellectual, savvy,
2
5000
3000
intelektualnih, iskusnih,
00:23
worldly and innovative people in the world.

2000
svjetskih i inovativnih ljudi na svijetu.
00:25
And I think that's true.
4
10000
2000
I smatram da je to istina.
00:27
However, I also have reason to believe
5
12000
2000
Međutim, također imam razloga vjerovati
00:29
that many, if not most, of you
6
14000
2000
da mnogi, ako ne i većina vas
00:31
are actually tying your shoes incorrectly.
7
16000
2000
zapravo pogrešno veže vezice na svojim cipelama.
00:33
(Laughter)
8
18000
2000
Smijeh
00:35
Now I know that seems ludicrous.
9
20000
2000
Ja znam da ovo sada zvuči smješno.
00:37
I know that seems ludicrous.
10
22000
2000
Znam da se čini smješno.
00:39
And believe me, I lived the same sad life
11
24000
2000
I vjerujte mi, živio sam isti tužan život
00:41
until about three years ago.
12
26000
2000
do oko prije tri godine.
00:43
And what happened to me
13
28000
2000
I ono što se meni dogodilo
00:45
was I bought, what was for me, a very expensive pair of shoes.
14
30000
3000
je bilo to da sam kupio ono što je za mene bio veoma skup par cipela.
00:48
But those shoes came with round nylon laces,
15
33000
3000
Ali te cipele su imale okrugle sintetičke vezice,
00:51
and I couldn't keep them tied.
16
36000
2000
i nisam ih mogao držati svezanim.
00:53
So I went back to the store and said to the owner,
17
38000
2000
Tako da sam se vratio u prodavnicu i rekao vlasniku,
00:55
"I love the shoes, but I hate the laces."
18
40000
2000
"Sviđaju mi se cipele ali mrzim vezice."
00:57
He took a look and said, "Oh, you're tying them wrong."
19
42000
3000
On me pogledao i rekao, "Vi ih pogrešno vežete."
01:00
Now up until that moment,
20
45000
2000
Do tog trenutka,
01:02
I would have thought that, by age 50,
21
47000
3000
smatrao sam da do 50 godine,
01:05
one of the life skills that I had really nailed
22
50000
3000
jedna od životnih vještina koju sam zaista savladao
01:08
was tying my shoes.
23
53000
2000
jeste vezanje vezica na cipelama.
01:10
But not so -- let me demonstrate.
24
55000
3000
Ali očigledno ne -- dopustite da vam pokažem.
01:14
This is the way
25
59000
2000
Ovo je način
01:16
that most of us were taught to tie our shoes.
26
61000
3000
na koji je većina nas naučila da veže vezice na cipelama.
01:22
Now as it turns out -- thank you.
27
67000
3000
Kako se ispostavilo -- hvala vam.
01:25
Wait, there's more.
28
70000
2000
Čekajte, ima još.
01:27
As it turns out,
29
72000
3000
Kako se ispostavilo,
01:30
there's a strong form and a weak form of this knot,
30
75000
2000
postoji čvrsti i slabi oblik ovog čvora,
01:32
and we were taught to tie the weak form.
31
77000
2000
a mi smo naučeni da vežemo slabiji oblik čvora.
01:34
And here's how to tell.
32
79000
2000
A ovo je pokazatelj.
01:36
If you pull the strands at the base of the knot,
33
81000
2000
Ako povučete vezice na osnovi čvora,
01:38
you will see that the bow will orient itself
34
83000
3000
vidjećete da će se mašna sama okrenuti
01:41
down the long axis of the shoe.
35
86000
2000
niz dugu osu cipele.
01:43
That's the weak form of the knot.
36
88000
2000
Ovo je slabi oblik čvora.
01:45
But not to worry.
37
90000
2000
Ali ne brinite.
01:47
If we start over
38
92000
2000
Ako ponovo krenemo
01:49
and simply go the other direction
39
94000
2000
i jednostavno idemo u suprotnom smjeru
01:51
around the bow,
40
96000
2000
oko mašne,
01:53
we get this, the strong form of the knot.
41
98000
3000
dobijemo ovo, čvrsti oblik čvora.
01:56
And if you pull the cords under the knot,
42
101000
3000
I ako povučete vezu ispod čvora,
01:59
you will see that the bow orients itself
43
104000
2000
vidjećete da se mašna sama okreće
02:01
along the transverse axis of the shoe.
44
106000
3000
duž dijagonalne ose cipele.
02:04
This is a stronger knot. It will come untied less often.
45
109000
3000
Ovo je jači čvor. Rjeđe će se odvezivati.
02:07
It will let you down less,
46
112000
2000
Manje ćete se spuštati dole.
02:09
and not only that, it looks better.
47
114000
3000
I ne samo to, izgleda bolje.
02:12
We're going to do this one more time.
48
117000
2000
Ponovićemo ovo još jednom.
02:14

02:17
Start as usual,
50
122000
4000
Počnite kao inače,
02:21
go the other way around the loop.
51
126000
2000
idite drugim putem oko petlje.
02:23
This is a little hard for children,
52
128000
2000
Ovo je malo teže za djecu,
02:25
but I think you can handle it.
53
130000
2000
ali mislim da to možete.
02:29
Pull the knot.
54
134000
2000
Povucite čvor.
02:31
There it is: the strong form of the shoe knot.
55
136000
3000
Eto ga: čvrsti oblik čvora vezica na cipeli.
02:34
Now, in keeping with today's theme,
56
139000
4000
U skladu sa današnjom teme,
02:38
I'd like to point out -- and something you already know --
57
143000
2000
želio bih istaknuti -- nešto što već znate --
02:40
that sometimes a small advantage
58
145000
2000
da ponekad mala korist
02:42
someplace in life
59
147000
2000
nekad u životu
02:44
can yield tremendous results someplace else.
60
149000
3000
može donijeti ogromne rezultate negdje drugo.
02:48
Live long and prosper.
61
153000
2000
Živite dugo i uspješno.
02:50
