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

TED-ovo občinstvo si vedno zamišljam kot čudovit zbor
00:18
of some of the most effective, intelligent,

najbolj učinkovitih, inteligentnih,

intellectual, savvy,

intelektualnih, pametnih,
00:23
worldly and innovative people in the world.

svetovljanskih in inovativnih ljudi na svetu.
00:25
And I think that's true.
4
10000
2000
To resnično mislim,
00:27
However, I also have reason to believe
5
12000
2000
a vendarle imam razlog, da verjamem,
00:29
that many, if not most, of you
6
14000
2000
da si mnogi, če ne večina, med vami
00:31
are actually tying your shoes incorrectly.
7
16000
2000
čevlje zavezujete narobe.
00:33
(Laughter)
8
18000
2000
(Smeh)
00:35
Now I know that seems ludicrous.
9
20000
2000
Saj vem, da se to sliši smešno.
00:37
I know that seems ludicrous.
10
22000
2000
Vem, da se to sliši smešno.
00:39
And believe me, I lived the same sad life
11
24000
2000
In verjemite mi, tudi jaz sem živel enako žalostno življenje
00:41
until about three years ago.
12
26000
2000
do približno treh let nazaj.
00:43
And what happened to me
13
28000
2000
Kar se je zgodilo meni je bilo to,
00:45
was I bought, what was for me, a very expensive pair of shoes.
14
30000
3000
da sem si kupil, zame, zelo drage čevlje.
00:48
But those shoes came with round nylon laces,
15
33000
3000
Ti čevlji so imeli najlonske vezalke,
00:51
and I couldn't keep them tied.
16
36000
2000
ki so se kar naprej odvezovale.
00:53
So I went back to the store and said to the owner,
17
38000
2000
Zato sem šel nazaj v trgovino in lastniku rekel:
00:55
"I love the shoes, but I hate the laces."
18
40000
2000
"Čevlji so odlični, vezalke pa sovražim".
00:57
He took a look and said, "Oh, you're tying them wrong."
19
42000
3000
Lastnik je pogledal čevlje in rekel "Ja seveda, če si jih pa zavezujete narobe".
01:00
Now up until that moment,
20
45000
2000
Do tistega trenutka sem mislil,
01:02
I would have thought that, by age 50,
21
47000
3000
da bi lahko bila ena od življenjskih spretnostih,
01:05
one of the life skills that I had really nailed
22
50000
3000
ki sem jih do svojih 50 let dodobra osvojil
01:08
was tying my shoes.
23
53000
2000
zavezovanje čevljev.
01:10
But not so -- let me demonstrate.
24
55000
3000
A temu ni bilo tako -- naj vam pokažem.
01:14
This is the way
25
59000
2000
Večina od nas se je
01:16
that most of us were taught to tie our shoes.
26
61000
3000
naučila zavezovati čevlje takole.
01:22
Now as it turns out -- thank you.
27
67000
3000
Izkaže pa se -- Hvala --
01:25
Wait, there's more.
28
70000
2000
Samo malo.
01:27
As it turns out,
29
72000
3000
Izkaže pa se,
01:30
there's a strong form and a weak form of this knot,
30
75000
2000
da obstajata močna in šibka oblika tega vozla
01:32
and we were taught to tie the weak form.
31
77000
2000
in nas so naučili zavezovati šibko.
01:34
And here's how to tell.
32
79000
2000
In kako prepoznati razliko?
01:36
If you pull the strands at the base of the knot,
33
81000
2000
Če potegnemo vezalke pod vozlom,
01:38
you will see that the bow will orient itself
34
83000
3000
vidimo da se mašna obrne
01:41
down the long axis of the shoe.
35
86000
2000
navzdol ob daljši osi čevlja.
01:43
That's the weak form of the knot.
36
88000
2000
In to je šibka oblika vozla.
01:45
But not to worry.
37
90000
2000
Ampak brez skrbi.
01:47
If we start over
38
92000
2000
Če začnemo znova
01:49
and simply go the other direction
39
94000
2000
in gremo okoli mašne
01:51
around the bow,
40
96000
2000
v nasprotni smeri,
01:53
we get this, the strong form of the knot.
41
98000
3000
dobimo tole, močno obliko vozla.
01:56
And if you pull the cords under the knot,
42
101000
3000
In če potegnete vezalke pod vozlom,
01:59
you will see that the bow orients itself
43
104000
2000
vidite, da se mašna obrne
02:01
along the transverse axis of the shoe.
44
106000
3000
pravokotno na čevelj.
02:04
This is a stronger knot. It will come untied less often.
45
109000
3000
To je močnejši vozel, ki se bo odvezal redkeje,
02:07
It will let you down less,
46
112000
2000
vas bo pustil na cedilu manj pogosto,
02:09
and not only that, it looks better.
47
114000
3000
in ne samo to, tudi izgleda bolje.
02:12
We're going to do this one more time.
48
117000
2000
Ponovimo še enkrat.
02:14
(Applause)
49
119000
3000
(Aplavz)
02:17
Start as usual,
50
122000
4000
Začnemo kot ponavadi
02:21
go the other way around the loop.
51
126000
2000
in potem v obratni smeri okoli mašne.
02:23
This is a little hard for children,
52
128000
2000
To je malce težko za otroke,
02:25
but I think you can handle it.
53
130000
2000
vi boste pa po moje zmogli.
02:29
Pull the knot.
54
134000
2000
Potegnite vozel.
02:31
There it is: the strong form of the shoe knot.
55
136000
3000
In tukaj jo imamo: močna oblika vozla.
02:34
Now, in keeping with today's theme,
56
139000
4000
Zdaj bi pa, v duhu današnje teme,
02:38
I'd like to point out -- and something you already know --
57
143000
2000
rad izpostavil -- nekaj kar že veste --
02:40
that sometimes a small advantage
58
145000
2000
da lahko včasih majhna prednost
02:42
someplace in life
59
147000
2000
nekje v življenju
02:44
can yield tremendous results someplace else.
60
149000
3000
vodi do izjemnih rezultatov nekje drugje.
02:48
Live long and prosper.
61
153000
2000
Živite dolgo in uspešno.
02:50
(Applause)
62
155000
3000
