Istumine on niivõrd tavaline,

we don't even questionküsimus how much we're doing it,

but if you're anything like me, it won'tei ole.
25

2770
Kui sa aga oled nagu mina, siis ei pane.
01:21
What did get me movingliikudes was a socialsotsiaalne interactionsuhtlemine.
26
69736
3228
Mis mind liikuma pani,
oli sotsiaalne suhtlus.
Mind paluti tulla koosolekule,
01:24
SomeoneKeegi invitedkutsutud me to a meetingkohtumine,
27
72964
1308
01:26
but couldn'tei saanud managehallata to fitsobib me in
28
74272
1173
kuid kuna tavalises nõupidamisteruumis
sobivat aega ei leidnud
01:27
to a regularkorrapärane sortsorteerima of conferencekonverents roomtuba meetingkohtumine, and said,
29
75445
2838
siis tehti mulle selline ettepanek:
01:30
"I have to walkjalutuskäik my dogskoerad tomorrowhomme. Could you come then?"
30
78283
3825
"Pean homme oma koeri jalutama.
Kas saaksid kaasa tulla?"
01:34
It seemedtundus kindlaadi of oddkummaline to do,
31
82108
2047
See tundus küll veidi imelik...
01:36
and actuallytegelikult, that first meetingkohtumine, I remembermäleta thinkingmõtlesin,
32
84155
2110
Ja mäletan, et sel esimesel
koosolekul mõtlesin:
01:38
"I have to be the one to askküsi the nextjärgmine questionküsimus,"
33
86265
1764
"Ma peaksin ise küsima järgmise küsimuse."
01:40
because I knewteadis I was going to huffHuff and puffkoorija
34
88029
3156
Sest teadsin, et ma ähiksin-puhiksin
kogu edasise vestluse.
01:43
duringajal this conversationvestlus.
35
91185
2184
01:45
And yetveel, I've takenvõetud that ideaidee and madetehtud it my ownoma.
36
93369
3130
Sellest hoolimata ma võtsin selle idee
ja tegin selle enda omaks.
01:48
So insteadselle asemel of going to coffeekohvi meetingskohtumised
37
96499
1646
Selle asemel, et pidada
koosolekut kohvitassi taga
01:50
or fluorescent-litluminofoorlampide valgustatud conferencekonverents roomtuba meetingskohtumised,
38
98145
2228
või kunstvalgusega nõupidamisteruumis,
01:52
I askküsi people to go on a walkingjalgsi meetingkohtumine,
39
100373
3030
kutsun ma inimesed jalutuskoosolekule,
01:55
to the tunetune of 20 to 30 milesmiili a weeknädal.
40
103403
3939
mida tuleb kokku 30-50 km nädalas.
01:59
It's changedmuudetud my life.
41
107342
2429
See on muutnud mu elu.
02:01
But before that, what actuallytegelikult happenedjuhtus was,
42
109771
3229
Varasemalt mõtlesin ma alati,
02:05
I used to think about it as,
43
113000
982
et on võimalik hoolitseda oma tervise eest
02:05
you could take carehooli of your healthtervis,
44
113982
1696
02:07
or you could take carehooli of obligationskohustused,
45
115678
2524
või täita oma kohustusi,
02:10
and one always cametuli at the costmaksumus of the other.
46
118202
3805
aga ühte neist saab teha
ainult teise arvelt.
Nüüd, pärast sadu tunde
jalutuskoosolekuid,
02:14
So now, severalmitu hundredsada of these walkingjalgsi meetingskohtumised laterhiljem,
47
122007
3132
olen nii mõndagi õppinud.
02:17
I've learnedõppinud a fewvähe things.
48
125139
1373
02:18
First, there's this amazinghämmastav thing
49
126512
1874
Esiteks, et selline mõnus
tööruumi raamidest väljaminek
02:20
about actuallytegelikult gettingsaada out of the boxkasti
50
128386
2725
viib raamidest väljas mõtlemiseni.
02:23
that leadsjuhib to out-of-the-boxout-of-the-box thinkingmõtlesin.
51
131111
1974
02:25
WhetherKas it's natureloodus or the exerciseharjutus itselfise, it certainlykindlasti workstöötab.
52
133085
4425
Kas mõjutab seda värske õhk
või liikumine, aga asi toimib.
02:29
And secondteine, and probablytõenäoliselt the more reflectivepeegeldav one,
53
137510
3020
Ja teine, ehk kaalukamgi, on see,
02:32
is just about how much eachiga of us
54
140530
2295
et valikud, mis sageli tunduvad must-valged,
02:34
can holdpidage kinni problemsprobleemid in oppositionvastulause
55
142825
2464
tegelikult seda sugugi ei ole.
02:37
when they're really not that way.
56
145289
1975
02:39
And if we're going to solvelahendada problemsprobleemid
57
147264
1708
Kui püüame lahendusi otsides
02:40
and look at the worldmaailm really differentlyerinevalt,
58
148972
1598
vaadata maailma teise pilguga,
02:42
whetherkas it's in governancejuhtimine or businessäri
59
150570
2129
olgu see juhtimises või äris,
02:44
or environmentalkeskkonna issuesküsimused, jobtöökoht creationloomine,
60
152699
2862
keskkonnateemades, töökohtade loomises,
02:47
maybe we can think about how to reframeümber kujundada those problemsprobleemid
61
155561
2663
siis ehk suudame nende probleemide
tavapärastest raamidest välja murda
02:50
as havingvõttes bothmõlemad things be truetõsi.
62
158224
2202
ja leida lahenduse, mis
toetab mõlema poole huvisid.
02:52
Because it was when that happenedjuhtus
63
160426
1923
Sest just niimoodi läks
selle jalutuskoosoleku ideega.
02:54
with this walk-and-talkjalutuskäigu ja rääkida ideaidee
64
162349
1455
02:55
that things becamesai doablesooritatav and sustainablejätkusuutlik and viableelujõuline.
65
163804
3959
See osutus tehtavaks,
jätkusuutlikuks ja elujõuliseks.
02:59
So I startedalgas this talk talkingräägime about the tushTush,
66
167763
1980
Alustasin seda kõnet viitega taguotsale,
03:01
so I'll endlõpp with the bottompõhja linerida, whichmis is,
67
169743
4010
Ja nüüd on tagumine aeg kokkuvõtteks,
03:05
walkjalutuskäik and talk.
68
173753
1631
milleks on - käi ja räägi.
03:07
WalkJalutuskäigu the talk.

03:08
