if you get nervous when onstage,
이렇게 해보라고 하더라고요.
있다고 상상해보라고요.
to make you feel better.
마음이 좀 편해진다고 해요.
feels kind of weird and wrong.
여러분을 상상하는 게 쉽지 않네요.
on moving past stuff like that,
일에 몰두할 수 있는 것처럼
새로운 방법이 필요합니다.
as much as you're looking at me --
저도 여러분을 보면 좋겠다는 거예요.
really comfortable, right?
I made myself a shirt.
티셔츠를 하나 만들어봤습니다.
as much as you're looking at me
덜 부담스럽게 하려는 목적 외에도
of the reason I made this.
some sort of solution to it.
그걸 해결할 도구를 발명하죠.
it's kind of boring,
재미는 좀 없죠.
아마 없을 거예요.
seven-year-olds in the audience,
아이가 있으면 이러겠죠.
a machine that could do it for you?
기계가 있다면 어떨까요?
by zero out of 10 dentists,
아마 아무도 없을 거예요.
revolutionize the world of dentistry,
절대 일으키지 못했습니다.
제 인생이 완전히 뒤바뀌었어요.
helmet three years ago
이 칫솔 헬멧을 만들었는데요.
and I put up a camera,
clip of it working.
modern-day fairy tale
into the comment sections
starts a YouTube channel
유튜브 채널을 시작합니다.
niche for myself on the internet
인터넷에 올리기 시작한 것이.
to be at the top of your field
최고가 되는 가장 쉬운 길은
about my machines,
소개하는 유튜브 채널을 운영하고 있죠.
like cutting hair with drones --
드론으로 머리자르기...
wake up in the morning --
that helps me chop vegetables.
student growing up.
야심만만한 학생이었어요.
I had straight A's,
A학점을 휩쓸었죠.
performance anxiety.
살았다는 뜻이기도 합니다.
to my brother around that time.
이메일 하나 보여드릴게요.
how difficult it is for me to tell you,
to think that I'm stupid.
our parents' house down.
그러는 아이는 아니었어요.
and the thing I'm so upset about
저런 메일을 보낸 이유는 바로
between here and here.
큰 변화가 있었다는 것 짐작하시겠죠.
시기였다는 것입니다.
about hardware.
혼자 익히려고 했죠.
especially if you're teaching yourself,
특히 그걸 혼자서 배우기란
difficult to do.
of making you feel stupid.
가능성도 농후합니다.
guarantee success 100 percent of the time.
보장하는 상황을 만들었습니다.
nearly impossible to fail.
거의 불가능하죠.
of trying to succeed,
things that would fail.
realize it at the time,
was actually quite smart,
사실 굉장히 똑똑한 겁니다.
learning about hardware,
장비 만들기를 계속할 때
with my performance anxiety.
필요가 없었거든요.
all pressure and expectations from myself,
기대를 떨쳐버리자마자
got replaced by enthusiasm,
that people struggle with.
것들에 관심이 있습니다.
or medium-sized things
presents this whole new set of problems
새로운 문제라고 할 수 있죠.
is the first step in my process
첫 번째 단계입니다.
of the potential problems I might have
뭐가 있을까 한번 생각해 봤습니다.
손이 막 떨리기 시작하고
my hands start shaking
open this entire time
all good on that one.
nervous about is my hands shaking.
behind the paper
to see the paper quivering.
보지 못하게 했었어요.
in the audience are probably like,
이런 생각을 하실지도 모르겠네요.
or form a business?"
a glass of water for you onstage
항상 물을 가져다 놓으세요.
if you get thirsty,
want to drink that water,
to see that my hands are shaking.
있다는 걸 눈치채게 되니까요.
that hands you a glass of water?
in the googly-eye shirt.
여성에게는 꼭 필요한 물건이죠.
because I have a thing --
다른 게 필요해서요..
"head orbit device,"
this platform around you
you can get photos of your entire head.
돌아가면서 사진 찍으셔도 돼요.
it's a very versatile machine.
장치라 할 수 있는데요.
some snacks on it, for example,
감안하셔야 합니다.
just clap your hands a little bit more --
그동안 제가...
little personal solar system,
that's what we're here for.
이걸 해보려던 참이었거든요.
on this machine a little bit
and put it on the platform,
이 위에 올려줘야 하니까요.
are shaking a little bit,
아무도 눈치 못 챌 겁니다.
장비를 착용하고 계시니까요.
a very mesmerizing piece of equipment.
sometimes get stage fright?
있다는 게 위로가 되네요.
like simple engineering slapstick,
코미디로 보일 수 있지만
on something bigger than that.
that often gets lost in engineering,
이런 기쁨과 겸손의 표현입니다.
to learn about hardware
anxiety get in the way.
going to build something useful,
만들게 될지 스스로 자문해보곤 합니다.
never have planned for,
never have planned for.
I was enthusiastic about what I was doing,
이런 일이 벌어져 버렸어요.
with other people.
다른 사람들과 공유해 왔습니다.
of making useless things,
백미가 아닐까 싶어요.
what the best answer is.
아니라는 걸 확인시켜주기 때문이죠.
고정 관념을 완전히 지워버립니다.
exactly how the world works.
isn't the answer,
갖는다는 게 의미있는 겁니다.
