I would be willing to bet that I'm the dumbest guy in the room

1000
3000
Pripravljen sem staviti, da sem
najbolj neumen v tej dvorani,
najbolj neumen v tej dvorani,
00:19
because I couldn't get through school. I struggled with school.
1
4000
2000
ker mi v šoli ni šlo.
Imel sem hude težave.
Imel sem hude težave.
00:21
But what I knew at a very early age
2
6000
2000
Toda, pri tistih letih sem se zavedal
00:23
was that I loved money and I loved business
3
8000
2000
da obožujem denar in posel
00:25
and I loved this entrepreneurial thing,
4
10000
2000
in da mi je všeč tista podjetniška reč
00:27
and I was raised to be an entrepreneur,
5
12000
2000
ter, da sem bil vzgojen
v podjetniškem duhu,
v podjetniškem duhu,
00:29
and what I've been really passionate about ever since --
6
14000
2000
in sem bil z njim prežet od takrat --
00:31
and I've never spoken about this ever, until now --
7
16000
3000
a o tem še nikoli nisem
spregovoril, do danes --
spregovoril, do danes --
00:34
so this is the first time anyone's ever heard it, except my wife three days ago,
8
19000
3000
danes bo to prvič slišal kdorkoli,
z izjemo moje žene,
z izjemo moje žene,
00:37
because she said, "What are you talking about?" and I told her --
9
22000
3000
in pri tem izjavila "O čem govoriš?",
jaz pa sem ji odgovoril --
jaz pa sem ji odgovoril --
00:40
is that I think we miss an opportunity
10
25000
2000
da mislim, da zamujamo priložnost,
00:42
to find these kids
11
27000
2000
da bi našli te otroke,
00:44
who have the entrepreneurial traits,
12
29000
2000
ki imajo podjetniški duh
00:46
and to groom them or show them
13
31000
2000
in da jih vzgojimo ali da jim pokažemo
00:48
that being an entrepreneur is actually a cool thing.
14
33000
2000
da je biti podjetnik res "kul"
00:50
It's not something that is a bad thing and is vilified,
15
35000
3000
Da to ni nekaj slabega ali vredno prezira,
00:53
which is what happens in a lot of society.
16
38000
3000
kot je miselnost v mnogih družbah.
00:56
Kids, when we grow up, have dreams,
17
41000
3000
Otroci imajo, ko odraščajo, svoje sanje.
00:59
and we have passions, and we have visions,
18
44000
2000
In mi imamo svoje strasti in vizije
01:01
and somehow we get those things crushed.
19
46000
2000
in nekako nam uspe te stvari uničiti.
01:03
We get told that we need to study harder
20
48000
3000
Govorijo nam, da se moramo več učiti,
01:06
or be more focused or get a tutor.
21
51000
2000
biti osredotočeni
ali najeti inštruktorja.
ali najeti inštruktorja.
01:08
My parents got me a tutor in French,
22
53000
2000
Moji starši so najeli
učitelja francoščine,
učitelja francoščine,
01:10
and I still suck in French.
23
55000
3000
ampak jaz še vedno
slabo govorim francosko.
slabo govorim francosko.
01:13
Two years ago, I was the highest-rated lecturer
24
58000
2000
Dve leti nazaj sem bil naj predavatelj
01:15
at MIT's entrepreneurial master's program.
25
60000
3000
na MIT-jevem podiplomskem
študiju podjetništva.
študiju podjetništva.
01:18
And it was a speaking event in front of groups of entrepreneurs from around the world.
26
63000
3000
Bil je nastop pred skupino
podjetnikov s celega sveta.
podjetnikov s celega sveta.
01:21
When I was in grade two, I won a city-wide speaking competition,
27
66000
3000
V drugem razredu sem zmagal
na tekmovanju v govorništvu,
na tekmovanju v govorništvu,
01:24
but nobody had ever said,
28
69000
2000
toda nihče nikoli ni rekel:
01:26
"Hey, this kid's a good speaker.
29
71000
2000
“Poglejte, ta fant je dober govornik.
01:28
He can't focus, but he loves walking around and getting people energized."
30
73000
3000
Ne more se koncentrirati,
a želi biti z ljudmi, jih motivirati.”
a želi biti z ljudmi, jih motivirati.”
01:31
No one said, "Get him a coach in speaking."
31
76000
2000
Niso rekli: “Rabi
inštrukcije govorništva.”
inštrukcije govorništva.”
01:33
They said, get me a tutor in what I suck at.
32
78000
2000
Inštrukcije naj bi dobil
za tisto kar mi ne gre.
za tisto kar mi ne gre.
01:35
So as kids show these traits --
33
80000
2000
Ko torej otroci pokažejo te lastnosti --
01:37
and we need to start looking for them --
34
82000
2000
in jih moramo začeti odkrivati --
01:39
I think we should be raising kids
35
84000
2000
mislim, da moramo otroke vzgajati
01:41
to be entrepreneurs instead of lawyers.
36
86000
2000
da postanejo podjetniki namesto odvetniki.
01:43
Unfortunately the school system
37
88000
2000
Toda na žalost šolski sistem
01:45
is grooming this world
38
90000
2000
vlada temu svetu
01:47
to say, "Hey, let's be a lawyer or let's be a doctor,"
39
92000
2000
z besedami: "Bodimo
odvetniki ali zdravniki"
odvetniki ali zdravniki"
01:49
and we're missing that opportunity because
40
94000
2000
in izgubimo to priložnost,
saj nihče ne reče "Hej, bodi podjetnik".
01:51
no one ever says, "Hey, be an entrepreneur."
41
96000
3000
Podjetniki smo ljudje -
in tu jih je veliko -
in tu jih je veliko -
01:54
Entrepreneurs are people -- because we have a lot of them in this room --
42
99000
2000
01:56
who have these ideas and these passions or see these needs in the world
43
101000
3000
ki imamo ideje in strasti
in vidimo potrebe v tem svetu
in vidimo potrebe v tem svetu
01:59
and we decide to stand up and do it.
44
104000
2000
in se odločimo in naredimo.
02:01
And we put everything on the line to make that stuff happen.
45
106000
3000
Tvegamo vse, da bi te stvari uresničili.
02:04
We have the ability to get those groups of people around us
46
109000
2000
Imamo sposobnost, da zberemo ljudi,
02:06
that want to kind of build that dream with us,
47
111000
2000
ki želijo z nami doseči te sanje,
02:08
and I think if we could get kids
48
113000
2000
In mislim, da če bi otroke prepričali
02:10
to embrace the idea at a young age of being entrepreneurial,
49
115000
3000
da sprejmejo idejo
podjetništva v mladih letih,
podjetništva v mladih letih,
02:13
we could change everything in the world that is a problem today.
50
118000
3000
potem bi lahko spremenili vse
kar je v svetu danes problem.
kar je v svetu danes problem.
02:16
Every problem that's out there, somebody has the idea for.
51
121000
3000
Za vsak problem, ki obstaja,
ima nekdo idejo za rešitev.
ima nekdo idejo za rešitev.
02:19
And as a young kid, nobody can say it can't happen
52
124000
2000
Kot otroku vam ne rečejo, da je nemogoče,
02:21
because you're too dumb to realize
53
126000
2000
ker ste preveč naivni, da bi dojeli,
02:23
that you couldn't figure it out.
54
128000
2000
da tega ne zmorete v resnici.
02:25
I think we have an obligation as parents and a society
55
130000
3000
Mislim, da imamo kot starši
in kot družba dolžnost,
in kot družba dolžnost,
02:28
to start teaching our kids to fish
56
133000
2000
da začnemo otroke učiti loviti ribe,
02:30
instead of giving them the fish --
57
135000
2000
namesto, da jim ribe dajemo --
02:32
the old parable: "If you give a man a fish, you feed him for a day.
58
137000
2000
"Daš človeku ribo, ga nahraniš za en dan."
02:34
If you teach a man to fish, you feed him for a lifetime."
59
139000
3000
"Če ga naučite loviti ribe, ste
ga nahranili za celo življenje."
ga nahranili za celo življenje."
02:37
If we can teach our kids to become entrepreneurial --
60
142000
2000
Če naučimo otroke, da bodo podjetniški --
02:39
the ones that show those traits to be --
61
144000
2000
tiste, ki kažejo talent za to --
02:41
like we teach the ones who have science gifts to go on in science,
62
146000
3000
kot učimo tiste, ki imajo talent
za znanost, da bodo znanstveniki,
za znanost, da bodo znanstveniki,
02:44
what if we saw the ones who had entrepreneurial traits
63
149000
2000
če bi opazili talent za podjetništvo
02:46
and taught them to be entrepreneurs?
64
151000
2000
in jih učili podjetništva?
02:48
We could actually have all these kids spreading businesses
65
153000
2000
Imeli bi vse te mlade, ki vodijo podjetja,
02:50
instead of waiting for government handouts.
66
155000
2000
namesto da čakajo na socialno podporo.
02:52
What we do is we sit and teach our kids all the things they shouldn't do:
67
157000
3000
Toda mi sedimo in učimo otroke
stvari, ki jih ne smejo narediti:
stvari, ki jih ne smejo narediti:
02:55
Don't hit; don't bite; don't swear.
68
160000
2000
Ne tepi se, ne grizi, ne preklinjaj.
02:57
Right now we teach our kids to go after really good jobs,
69
162000
3000
Trenutno učimo otroke, naj
izbirajo resnično dobre službe,
izbirajo resnično dobre službe,
03:00
you know, and the school system teaches them to go after things like
70
165000
2000
veste, šolski sistem
jih uči, naj postanejo
jih uči, naj postanejo
03:02
being a doctor and being a lawyer
71
167000
2000
zdravnik, odvetnik,
03:04
and being an accountant and a dentist
72
169000
2000
računovodja, zobozdravnik,
03:06
and a teacher and a pilot.
73
171000
2000
učitelj ali pilot.
03:08
And the media says that it's really cool if we could go out
74
173000
2000
In v medijih govorijo, da je kul,
03:10
and be a model or a singer
75
175000
2000
če si model ali pevec
03:12
or a sports hero like Luongo, Crosby.
76
177000
3000
ali športni zvezdnik, kot npr.
Luongo, Crosby.
Luongo, Crosby.
03:15
Our MBA programs do not teach kids to be entrepreneurs.
77
180000
3000
Naši MBA programi ne učijo
mladih, da bodo podjetniki.
mladih, da bodo podjetniki.
03:18
The reason that I avoided an MBA program --
78
183000
2000
Razlog, da sem se izogibal MBA programa --
03:20
other than the fact that I couldn't get into any
79
185000
2000
razen razloga, da se nisem mogel vpisati,
03:22
because I had a 61 percent average out of high school
80
187000
2000
ker sem imel povprečje 61 % v srednji šoli
03:24
and then 61 percent average at
81
189000
2000
in potem povprečje 61 %
na edini šoli v Kanadi,
kjer so me sprejeli, Carlton -
kjer so me sprejeli, Carlton -
03:26
the only school in Canada that accepted me, Carlton --
82
191000
2000
03:28
but our MBA programs don't teach kids to be entrepreneurs.
83
193000
3000
toda naši MBA programi ne učijo
mladih, da bodo podjetniki.
mladih, da bodo podjetniki.
03:31
They teach them to go work in corporations.
84
196000
2000
Učijo jih da delajo v korporacijah.
03:33
So who's starting these companies? It's these random few people.
85
198000
3000
In kdo ustvari velika podjetja?
To je teh nekaj naključnih ljudi.
To je teh nekaj naključnih ljudi.
Celo v popularni književnosti, v
edini knjigi, ki som jo našel -
edini knjigi, ki som jo našel -
03:36
Even in popular literature, the only book I've ever found --
86
201000
3000
03:39
and this should be on all of your reading lists --
87
204000
2000
in bi jo morali vsi prebrati -
03:41
the only book I've ever found
88
206000
2000
edina knjiga, ki sem jo našel
03:43
that makes the entrepreneur into the hero is "Atlas Shrugged."
89
208000
2000
da je v njej podjetnik
heroj je "Atlas Shrugged".
heroj je "Atlas Shrugged".
03:45
Everything else in the world tends to look at entrepreneurs
90
210000
2000
Vse ostalo gleda in opisuje podjetnike,
03:47
and say that we're bad people.
91
212000
2000
kot da smo slabi ljudje.
03:49
I look at even my family.
92
214000
2000
Gledam celo svojo družino.
03:51
Both my grandfathers were entrepreneurs. My dad was an entrepreneur.
93
216000
2000
Oba deda in oče so bili podjetnik.
03:53
Both my brother and sister and I, all three of us own companies as well.
94
218000
3000
Brat, sestra in jaz, vsi trije
imam prav tako svoja podjetja.
imam prav tako svoja podjetja.
03:56
And we all decided to start these things
95
221000
2000
Vsi smo se odločili, da se lotimo tega,
03:58
because it's really the only place we fit.
96
223000
2000
ker je to edini prostor,
v katerega ustrezamo.
v katerega ustrezamo.
04:00
We didn't fit in the normal work. We couldn't work for somebody else
97
225000
2000
Nismo se ujeli v normalnem delu.
Nismo mogli delati za druge,
Nismo mogli delati za druge,
04:02
because we're too stubborn and we have all these other traits.
98
227000
3000
ker smo preveč trdoglavi
in imamo polno drugih sposobnosti.
in imamo polno drugih sposobnosti.
04:05
But kids could be entrepreneurs as well.
99
230000
2000
Toda otroci so ravno
tako lahko podjetniki.
tako lahko podjetniki.
04:07
I'm a big part of a couple organizations globally
100
232000
2000
Veliko delam v dveh
organizacijah,
organizacijah,
04:09
called the Entrepreneurs' Organization and the Young Presidents' Organization.
101
234000
2000
"Organizacija podjetnikov" in
"Organizacija mladih predsednikov."
"Organizacija mladih predsednikov."
04:11
I just came back from speaking in Barcelona
102
236000
2000
Pravkar sem se vrnil iz Barcelone,
04:13
at the YPO global conference,
103
238000
3000
kjer sem govoril
na globalni konferenci YPO
na globalni konferenci YPO
04:16
and everyone that I met over there
104
241000
2000
in vsi, ki sem jih spoznal
04:18
who's an entrepreneur
105
243000
2000
ki so bili podjetniki,
04:20
struggled with school.
106
245000
2000
so imeli težave v šoli.
04:22
I have 18 out of the 19 signs of attention deficit disorder diagnosed.
107
247000
3000
Meni so diagnosticirali 18 od
19 znakov motnje pozornosti.
19 znakov motnje pozornosti.
04:25
So this thing right here is freaking me out.
108
250000
3000
Ta stvar tukaj me spravlja ob živce.
04:28
(Laughter)
109
253000
2000
(smeh)
04:30
It's probably why I'm a little bit panicked right now --
110
255000
2000
Verjetno sem zato sedaj malce paničen --
04:32
other than all the caffeine that I've had and the sugar --
111
257000
2000
pa ne samo zaradi kave in sladkorja --
04:34
but this is really creepy for an entrepreneur.
112
259000
3000
ampak tole podjetnika res razburi.
04:37
Attention deficit disorder, bipolar disorder.
113
262000
2000
Motnja pozornosti, bipolarna motnja.
04:39
Do you know that bipolar disorder is nicknamed the CEO disease?
114
264000
3000
Veste da pravijo bipolarni
motnji tudi "direktorska bolezen"?
motnji tudi "direktorska bolezen"?
04:42
Ted Turner's got it. Steve Jobs has it.
115
267000
3000
Ted Turner jo ima, Steve Jobs jo ima.
04:45
All three of the founders of Netscape had it.
116
270000
3000
Vsi trije ustanovitelji
Netscape-a so jo imeli.
Netscape-a so jo imeli.
04:48
I could go on and on.
117
273000
2000
In še bi lahko naštevali.
04:50
Kids -- you can see these signs in kids.
118
275000
2000
Otroci -te znake lahko
vidite pri otrocih.
vidite pri otrocih.
04:52
And what we're doing is we're giving them Ritalin and saying,
119
277000
2000
Ampak mi jim dajemo zdravila in govorimo,
04:54
"Don't be an entrepreneurial type.
120
279000
2000
"Ne bodi podjeten.
04:56
Fit into this other system and try to become a student."
121
281000
2000
Vklopi se v sistem
in poskušaj biti učenec."
in poskušaj biti učenec."
04:58
Sorry, entrepreneurs aren't students.
122
283000
2000
Oprostite, podjetniki niso učenci.
05:00
We fast-track. We figure out the game.
123
285000
2000
Mi gremo po hitrem pasu. Mi dojamemo igro.
05:02
I stole essays. I cheated on exams.
124
287000
2000
Prepisoval sem naloge, goljufal na testih.
05:04
I hired kids to do my accounting assignments in university
125
289000
3000
Na faksu sem najemal študente
za računovodske naloge
za računovodske naloge
05:07
for 13 consecutive assignments.
126
292000
2000
pri 13-tih zaporednih nalogah.
05:09
But as an entrepreneur you don't do accounting, you hire accountants.
127
294000
3000
Kot podjetnik se ne ukvarjate
z računovodstvom, zaposlite nekoga.
z računovodstvom, zaposlite nekoga.
05:12
So I just figured that out earlier.
128
297000
2000
Jaz se to doumel že prej-

At least I can admit I cheated in university; most of you won't.
131
303000
3000
Vsaj priznam, da sem goljufal na
fakulteti; večina vas ne bo.
fakulteti; večina vas ne bo.
05:21
I'm also quoted -- and I told the person who wrote the textbook --
132
306000
3000
Citirajo me -- sem vse povedal
osebi, ki je pisala učbenik --
osebi, ki je pisala učbenik --
05:24
I'm now quoted in that exact same university textbook
133
309000
2000
danes me citirajo v tem istem učbeniku
05:26
in every Canadian university and college studies.
134
311000
3000
na vseh kanadskih
visokošolskih programih.

In managerial accounting, I'm chapter eight.
135
314000
3000
V menedžerskem računovodstvu,
sem jaz v 8. poglavju.
sem jaz v 8. poglavju.
05:32
I open up chapter eight talking about budgeting.
136
317000
2000
Začenjam 8. poglavje
z zgodbo o proračunih.
z zgodbo o proračunih.
05:34
And I told the author, after they did my interview, that I cheated in that same course.
137
319000
3000
Po intervjuju sem avtorici povedal
za prepisovanje pri tem predmetu.
za prepisovanje pri tem predmetu.
05:37
And she thought it was too funny to not include it anyway.
138
322000
3000
In njej se je zdelo preveč smešno,
da tega ne bi vključili.
da tega ne bi vključili.
05:40
But kids, you can see these signs in them.
139
325000
3000
Toda otroci, pri njih
lahko opazite te znake.
lahko opazite te znake.
05:43
The definition of an entrepreneur is "a person who organizes, operates
140
328000
2000
Podjetnik po definiciji "organizira, vodi,
05:45
and assumes the risk of a business venture."
141
330000
3000
in prevzame tveganje posla."
05:48
That doesn't mean you have to go to an MBA program.
142
333000
2000
To ne pomeni, da morate na MBA program,
05:50
It doesn't mean you have to get through school.
143
335000
2000
ali da morate zaključiti šolo.
05:52
It just means that those few things have to feel right in your gut.
144
337000
3000
Pomeni, da morate imeti
za nekatere stvari imeti čut.
za nekatere stvari imeti čut.
05:55
And we've heard those things about "is it nurture or is it nature," right?
145
340000
3000
Slišali smo za vprašanje, ali je nekaj
pridobljeno ali prirojeno ?
pridobljeno ali prirojeno ?
05:58
Is it thing one or thing two? What is it?
146
343000
2000
Je to ena ali druga stvar? Kaj je?
06:00
Well, I don't think it's either. I think it can be both.
147
345000
3000
Jaz mislim, da ni eno ali drugo.
Menim, da sta lahko obe.
Menim, da sta lahko obe.
06:03
I was groomed as an entrepreneur.
148
348000
2000
Mene so vzgajali v podjetnika.
06:05
When I was growing up as a young kid, I had no choice,
149
350000
2000
Ko sem odraščal nisem imel izbire,
06:07
because I was taught at a very early, young age --
150
352000
2000
saj so me kot zelo majhnega učili --
06:09
when my dad realized I wasn't going to fit into
151
354000
2000
ko je moj oče doumel, da se ne bom vklopil
06:11
everything else that was being taught to me in school --
152
356000
2000
v vse, kar so me učili v šoli --
06:13
that he could teach me to figure out business at an early age.
153
358000
3000
da me on lahko nauči doumeti
podjetnost v zelo rani mladosti.
podjetnost v zelo rani mladosti.
06:16
He groomed us, the three of us,
154
361000
2000
Vzgajal nas je, vse tri,
06:18
to hate the thought of having a job
155
363000
2000
da sovražimo idejo imeti službo
06:20
and to love the fact of creating companies that we could employ other people.
156
365000
3000
in da obožujemo ustvarjati
podjetja in zaposlovati druge ljudi.
podjetja in zaposlovati druge ljudi.
06:23
My first little business venture: I was seven years old, I was in Winnipeg,
157
368000
3000
Moj prvi poslovni podvig, imel sem
sedem let, živel v Winipegu,
sedem let, živel v Winipegu,
06:26
and I was lying in my bedroom with one of those long extension cords.
158
371000
2000
ležal sem v sobi s telefonsko slušalko
06:28
And I was calling all the dry cleaners in Winnipeg
159
373000
2000
in klical kemične čistilnice v Winipegu
06:30
to find out how much would the dry cleaners
160
375000
2000
in preverjal, koliko bi mi
06:32
pay me for coat hangers.
161
377000
2000
plačali za obešalnike za obleke?
06:34
And my mom came into the room and she said,
162
379000
2000
Moja mama je prišla v sobo, je rekla
06:36
"Where are you going to get the coat hangers to sell to the dry cleaners?"
163
381000
3000
"Kje pa boš dobil obešalnike za prodajo?"
06:39
And I said, "Let's go and look in the basement."
164
384000
2000
In sem rekel, "Pojdiva pogledat v klet."
06:41
And we went down to the basement. And I opened up this cupboard.
165
386000
3000
In sva šla v klet. Odprl sem omaro.
06:44
And there was about a thousand coat hangers that I'd collected.
166
389000
2000
Tam je bilo približno tisoč obešalnikov.
06:46
Because, when I told her I was going out to play with the kids,
167
391000
3000
Kajti, kadarkoli sem ji rekel,
da se grem igrat s prijatelji,
da se grem igrat s prijatelji,
06:49
I was going door to door in the neighborhood to collect coat hangers
168
394000
2000
sem v soseski zbiral
obešalnike od vrat do vrat
obešalnike od vrat do vrat
06:51
to put in the basement to sell.
169
396000
2000
in jih hranil v kleti za prodajo.
06:53
Because I saw her a few weeks before that --
170
398000
2000
Ker sem jo videl nekaj tednov prej -
06:55
you could get paid. They used to pay you two cents per coat hanger.
171
400000
3000
dobiti denar. Plačali so
2 centa po obešalniku.
2 centa po obešalniku.
06:58
So I was just like, well there's all kinds of coat hangers.
172
403000
2000
Ugotovil sem, da je polno obešalnikov
07:00
And so I'll just go get them.
173
405000
2000
in da jih moram samo zbrati.
07:02
And I knew she wouldn't want me to go get them, so I just did it anyway.
174
407000
3000
Vedel sem, da ona tega ne bi
dovolila, pa sem to vseeno naredil.
dovolila, pa sem to vseeno naredil.
07:06
And I learned that you could actually negotiate with people.
175
411000
2000
In naučil sem se pogajati z ljudmi.
07:08
This one person offered me three cents and I got him up to three and a half.
176
413000
3000
Nekdo mi je ponudil 3 cente, jaz
pa sem dosegel 3 cente in pol.
pa sem dosegel 3 cente in pol.
07:11
I even knew at a seven-year-old age
177
416000
2000
In kot sedemletnik sem vedel
07:13
that I could actually get a fractional percent of a cent,
178
418000
3000
da lahko dobil del centa,
07:16
and people would pay that because it multiplied up.
179
421000
2000
in ljudje mi bodo plačali, ker se množi.
07:18
At seven years old I figured it out. I got three and a half cents for a thousand coat hangers.
180
423000
3000
Pri sedmih sem dobil 3,5 centa
za vsakega od 1000 obešalnikov.
za vsakega od 1000 obešalnikov.
07:21
I sold license plate protectors door to door.
181
426000
2000
Prodajal sem okvirje
za registrske tablice.
za registrske tablice.
07:23
My dad actually made me go find someone
182
428000
2000
Oče me je celo poslal iskat nekoga,
07:25
who would sell me these things at wholesale.
183
430000
2000
ki bi mi jih prodal po veleprodajni ceni.
07:27
And at nine years old, I walked around in the city of Sudbury
184
432000
2000
Pri devetih sem hodil po ulicah Sudbury-ja
07:29
selling license plate protectors door to door to houses.
185
434000
3000
in prodajal zaščitne okvirje
za registrske tablice.
za registrske tablice.
07:32
And I remember this one customer so vividly
186
437000
3000
Spominjam se ene stranke, tako jasno,
07:35
because I also did some other stuff with these clients.
187
440000
2000
saj sem s temi ljudmi
delal še druge stvari.
delal še druge stvari.
07:37
I sold newspapers.
188
442000
2000
Prodajal sem časopis.
07:39
And he wouldn't buy a newspaper from me ever.
189
444000
2000
In on nikoli ni kupil časopisa od mene.
07:41
But I was convinced I was going to get him to buy a license plate protector.
190
446000
3000
A bil sem prepričan, da ga bom
pregovoril, da kupi zaščitni okvir.
pregovoril, da kupi zaščitni okvir.
07:44
And he's like, "Well, we don't need one."
191
449000
1000
Rekel je, "Ne rabim."
07:45
And I said, "But you've got two cars ..." -- I'm nine years old.
192
450000
3000
jaz rečem: "Imate dva
avtomobila…"- imel sem devet let.
avtomobila…"- imel sem devet let.
07:48
I'm like, "But you have two cars and they don't have license plate protectors."
193
453000
3000
"Imate dva avtomobila in noben nima
zaščitnega okvirja."
zaščitnega okvirja."
07:51
And he said, "I know."
194
456000
2000
On pravi "Vem."
07:53
And I said, "This car here's got one license plate that's all crumpled up."
195
458000
2000
"Ta ima registrsko tablico zelo zmečkano."
07:55
And he said, "Yes, that's my wife's car." And I said, "Why don't we just test one
196
460000
3000
"Vem, to je avto moje žene." In
rečem, "Zakaj ne bi testirali
rečem, "Zakaj ne bi testirali
07:58
on the front of your wife's car and see if it lasts longer."
197
463000
2000
enega na tem avtomobilu,
če dlje zdrži."
če dlje zdrži."
08:00
So I knew there were two cars with two license plates on each.
198
465000
3000
Vedel sem, da sta dva avta
s po dvema registrskima tablicama.
s po dvema registrskima tablicama.
08:03
If I couldn't sell all four, I could at least get one.
199
468000
2000
Če ne morem prodati štirih,
lahko enega.
lahko enega.
08:05
I learned that at a young age.
200
470000
2000
To sem se naučil v teh mladih letih.
08:07
I did comic book arbitrage.
201
472000
2000
Preprodajal sem stripe.
08:09
When I was about 10 years old, I sold comic books
202
474000
2000
Ko sem imel 10 let, sem prodajal stripe
08:11
out of our cottage on Georgian Bay.
203
476000
2000
blizu naše hiše v zalivu Georgian Bay.
08:13
And I would go biking up to the end of the beach
204
478000
2000
S kolesom sem šel do konca plaže
08:15
and buy all the comics from the poor kids.
205
480000
2000
in kupoval stripe od revnih otrok.
08:17
And then I would go back to the other end of the beach and sell them to the rich kids.
206
482000
3000
Potem sem se vrnil na drug konec
in prodajal bogatim otrokom.
in prodajal bogatim otrokom.
08:20
But it was obvious to me, right? Buy low, sell high.
207
485000
2000
Bilo je očitno
- kupi poceni, prodaj drago.
- kupi poceni, prodaj drago.
08:22
You've got this demand over here that has money.
208
487000
2000
Tukaj je povpraševanje
in tu je tudi denar.
in tu je tudi denar.
08:24
Don't try to sell to the poor kids; they don't have cash. The rich people do. Go get some.
209
489000
3000
Ne prodajaj revnim, nimajo denarja,
bogati ga imajo, dobi ga.
bogati ga imajo, dobi ga.
08:27
So that's obvious, right.
210
492000
2000
To je očitno, kajne?
08:29
It's like a recession. So, there's a recession.
211
494000
2000
To je kot recesija. Torej imamo recesijo.
08:31
There's still 13 trillion dollars circulating in the U.S. economy.
212
496000
3000
V ameriški ekonomiji še vedno kroži
13 biljard dolarjev.
13 biljard dolarjev.
08:34
Go get some of that. And I learned that at a young age.
213
499000
3000
Vzemi del tega. To sem
se naučil že zgodaj.
se naučil že zgodaj.
08:37
I also learned, don't reveal your source,
214
502000
2000
Odkril sem, da se ne izdaja svojih virov.
08:39
because I got beat up after about four weeks of doing this
215
504000
2000
ker so me po štirih tednih pretepli,
08:41
because one of the rich kids found out where I was buying my comics from,
216
506000
3000
saj je eden od bogatih otrok
odkril, kje kupujem stripe
odkril, kje kupujem stripe
08:44
and he didn't like the fact that he was paying a lot more.
217
509000
2000
in ni mu bilo všeč, da plača toliko več.
08:46
I was forced to get a paper route at 10 years old.
218
511000
2000
Pri desetih sem moral raznašati časopis.
08:48
I didn't really want a paper route,
219
513000
2000
Tega nisem hotel.
08:50
but at 10, my dad said, "That's going to be your next business."
220
515000
2000
Pri 10 je oče rekel:
"To bo naslednji posel."
"To bo naslednji posel."
08:52
So not only would he get me one, but I had to get two,
221
517000
2000
Toda ne samo eno naselje, temveč dve,
08:54
and then he wanted me to hire someone to deliver half the papers,
222
519000
3000
in hotel je, da za raznašanje polovice
nekoga zaposlim,
nekoga zaposlim,
08:57
which I did, and then I realized that collecting tips was where you made all the money.
223
522000
3000
in sem ter nato ugotovil, da se
največ zasluži z napitnino.
največ zasluži z napitnino.
09:00
So I would collect the tips and get payment.
224
525000
2000
Zbiral sem napitnine in dobival zaslužek.
09:02
So I would go and collect for all the papers.
225
527000
2000
Tako sem pobiral plačilo sam za vse.
09:04
He could just deliver them.
226
529000
2000
Moj "zaposleni" jih je samo raznašal.
09:06
Because then I realized I could make the money.
227
531000
2000
Tako sem doumel, kako lahko zaslužim.
09:08
By this point, I was definitely not going to be an employee.
228
533000
3000
Že takrat ni kazalo,
da bom kje "zaposlen".
da bom kje "zaposlen".
09:11
(Laughter)
229
536000
2000
(Smeh)
09:13
My dad owned an automotive and industrial repair shop.
230
538000
2000
Moj oče je imel avto-trgovino.
09:15
He had all these old automotive parts lying around.
231
540000
2000
Imel je veliko delov,
ki so ležali naokrog.
ki so ležali naokrog.
09:17
They had this old brass and copper.
232
542000
2000
bili so iz medenine, drugi iz bakra.
09:19
I asked him what he did with it, and he said he just throws it out.
233
544000
3000
vprašal sem ga, kaj dela s tem.
Povedal mi je, da to meče stran.
Povedal mi je, da to meče stran.
09:22
I said, "But wouldn't somebody pay you for that?" And he goes, "Maybe."
234
547000
2000
"Bi kdo plačal za to?" In reče, "Mogoče."
09:24
Remember at 10 years old -- so 34 years ago
235
549000
2000
Pazite, pri desetih letih -- pred 34 leti,
09:26
I saw opportunity in this stuff.
236
551000
2000
Videl sem priložnost v tem.
09:28
I saw there was money in garbage.
237
553000
2000
videl sem, da obstaja denar v smeteh.
09:30
And I was actually collecting it from all the automotive shops in the area on my bicycle.
238
555000
3000
Pobiral sem jih v avto-delavnicah
v okolici s svojim kolesom.
v okolici s svojim kolesom.
09:33
And then my dad would drive me on Saturdays
239
558000
2000
In v soboto me je oče peljal.
09:35
to a scrap metal recycler where I got paid.
240
560000
2000
na odpad, kjer so mi za material plačali.
09:37
And I thought that was kind of cool.
241
562000
2000
In jaz sem si mislil, da je to "kul".
09:39
Strangely enough, 30 years later, we're building 1-800-GOT-JUNK?
242
564000
3000
Čudno, po 30 letih imamo telefonsko
številko 1-800-IMATE-SMETI?
številko 1-800-IMATE-SMETI?
09:42
and making money off that too.
243
567000
2000
in prav tako služimo s tem.
09:44
I built these little pincushions when I was 11 years old in Cubs,
244
569000
3000
Pri enajstih smo pri tabornikih
izdelovali blazinice za šivanke,
izdelovali blazinice za šivanke,
09:47
and we made these pin cushions for our moms for Mother's Day.
245
572000
2000
izdeloval smo jih za dan žena.
09:49
And you made these pincushions out of wooden clothespins --
246
574000
3000
Te blazinice smo izdelovali
iz lesenih kljukic --
iz lesenih kljukic --
09:52
when we used to hang clothes on clotheslines outside.
247
577000
2000
s katerimi so zunaj
na vrvi obešali perilo.
na vrvi obešali perilo.
09:54
And you'd make these chairs.
248
579000
2000
In izdelovali smo stolčke.
09:56
And I had these little pillows that I would sew up.
249
581000
2000
Imel sem male blazinice, ki sem jih sešil,
09:58
And you could stuff pins in them.
250
583000
2000
v katere si lahko zapičil šivanke,
10:00
Because people used to sew and they needed a pin cushion.
251
585000
3000
saj so včasih ljudje šivali
in so rabili blazinice.
in so rabili blazinice.
10:03
But what I realized was that you had to have options.
252
588000
3000
No, tisto kar sem doumel
je, da moraš imeti možnosti.
je, da moraš imeti možnosti.
10:06
So I actually spray painted a whole bunch of them brown.
253
591000
2000
Zaradi tega sem nekatere
pobarval rjavo.
pobarval rjavo.
10:08
And then when I went to the door, it wasn't, "Do you want to buy one?"
254
593000
2000
Ko sem prišel do vrat, nisem
vprašal: "Bi kupili eno?"
vprašal: "Bi kupili eno?"
10:10
It was, "Which color would you like?"
255
595000
2000
Temveč, "Katero barvo želite?"
10:12
Like I'm 10 years old; you're not going to say no to me,
256
597000
2000
Imam 10 let; ne boste mi rekli ne,
10:14
especially if you have two options -- you have the brown one or the clear one.
257
599000
3000
še posebej, če imate dve možnosti --
rjavo ali naravno barvo.
rjavo ali naravno barvo.
10:17
So I learned that lesson at a young age.
258
602000
2000
to sem se naučil v rani mladosti.
10:19
I learned that manual labor really sucks.
259
604000
3000
Naučil sem se, da je ročno delo brez veze.
10:24
Right, like cutting lawns is brutal.
260
609000
2000
Kot npr. da je košenje trave naporno.
10:26
But because I had to cut lawns all summer for all of our neighbors and get paid to do that,
261
611000
3000
Ker sem celo poletje moral urejati
travo sosedom in služiti,
travo sosedom in služiti,
10:29
I realized that recurring revenue
262
614000
2000
sem doumel, da je redno plačevanje
10:31
from one client is amazing.
263
616000
3000
od ene stranke je fantastična stvar
10:34
That if I land this client once,
264
619000
2000
Če uredim trato stranki enkrat,
10:36
and every week I get paid by that person,
265
621000
2000
in vsak teden prejem
plačilo od te stranke,
plačilo od te stranke,
10:38
that's way better than trying to sell
266
623000
2000
je to veliko bolje kot prodati
10:40
one clothespin thing to one person.
267
625000
2000
eno blazinico za šivanke enkrat samkrat.
10:42
Because you can't sell them more.
268
627000
2000
Saj tako lahko "prodajaš" večkrat.
10:44
So I love that recurring revenue model I started to learn at a young age.
269
629000
3000
Zato obožujem model rednih prihodkov,
ki sem ga spoznal takrat.
ki sem ga spoznal takrat.
10:47
Remember, I was being groomed to do this. I was not allowed to have jobs.
270
632000
3000
Tako so me vzgajali,
nisem smel imeti službe.
nisem smel imeti službe.
10:50
I would caddy, I would go to the golf course and caddy for people.
271
635000
3000
Delal sem na golfu,
in nosil torbe s palicami.
in nosil torbe s palicami.
10:53
But I realized that there was this one hill on our golf course,
272
638000
2000
Ugotovil sem, da je en klanec na igrišču,
10:55
the 13th hole that had this huge hill.
273
640000
2000
trinajsta luknja je bila na hribu.
10:57
And people could never get their bags up it.
274
642000
2000
In ljudje so tam težko nosili svoje torbe.
10:59
So I would sit there with a lawn chair
275
644000
2000
Tako sem sedel tam, na vrtnem stolu
11:01
and just carry up all the people who didn't have caddies.
276
646000
3000
in nosil tja gor torbe
igralcem, ki niso imeli nosačev.
igralcem, ki niso imeli nosačev.
11:04
I would carry their golf bags up to the top, and they'd pay me a dollar.
277
649000
3000
Prav do vrha in oni so mi
zato plačali en dolar.
zato plačali en dolar.
11:07
Meanwhile, my friends were working for five hours
278
652000
2000
Medtem so moji prijatelji delali 5 ur
11:09
to haul some guy's bag around and get paid 10 bucks.
279
654000
2000
in nosili torbe po
igrišču za 10 dolarjev.
igrišču za 10 dolarjev.
11:11
I'm like, "That's stupid because you have to work for five hours.
280
656000
3000
In sem rekel: "To je neumno,
da moraš delati 5 ur."
da moraš delati 5 ur."
11:14
That doesn't make any sense." You just figure out a way to make more money faster.
281
659000
3000
To nima smisla. Poišči način
kako hitreje zaslužiti več denarja.
kako hitreje zaslužiti več denarja.
11:17
Every week, I would go to the corner store and buy all these pops.
282
662000
3000
Vsak teden sem šel v trgovino
in kupil pločevinke s pijačo.
in kupil pločevinke s pijačo.
11:20
Then I would go up and deliver them to these 70-year-old women playing bridge.
283
665000
3000
In jih nosil 70-letnim
gospem, ki so igrale bridž.
gospem, ki so igrale bridž.
11:23
And they'd give me their orders for the following week.
284
668000
2000
In naročile so še za naslednji teden.
11:25
And then I'd just deliver pop and I'd just charge twice.
285
670000
2000
Dostavil sem jim pijačo in računal dvojno.
11:27
And I had this captured market. You didn't need contracts.
286
672000
3000
Imel sem zaprto tržišče
in nisem potreboval pogodb.
in nisem potreboval pogodb.
11:30
You just needed to have a supply and demand
287
675000
2000
Samo ponudbo in povpraševanje potrebujete
11:32
and this audience who bought into you.
288
677000
2000
in stranke, ki kupujejo pri vas.
11:34
These women weren't going to go to anybody else
289
679000
2000
Te gospe ne bi šle k drugemu,
11:36
because they liked me, and I kind of figured it out.
290
681000
2000
bil sem jim všeč in to mi je bilo jasno.
11:38
I went and got golf balls from golf courses.
291
683000
3000
Zbiral sem golf žogice po igrišču.
11:41
But everybody else was looking in the bush
292
686000
2000
Toda vsi so jih iskali po grmovju
11:43
and looking in the ditches for golf balls.
293
688000
2000
ali pa brskali po jarkih.
11:45
I'm like, screw that. They're all in the pond
294
690000
2000
Mislil sem si, pozabi to.
Vse so v jezeru
Vse so v jezeru
11:47
and nobody's going into the pond.
295
692000
2000
in tam jih ne išče nihče.
11:49
So I would go into the ponds and crawl around and pick them up with my toes.
296
694000
3000
Zato sem šel v jezero
in brodil in pobiral žogice.
in brodil in pobiral žogice.
11:52
You just pick them up with both feet.
297
697000
2000
Enostavno jih dvignete s stopali.
11:54
You can't do it on stage.
298
699000
2000
To ne morete narediti na odru.
11:56
You get the golf balls, and you just throw them in your bathing suit trunks
299
701000
2000
Pobirate žogice in jih tlačite za kopalke
11:58
and when you're done you've got a couple hundred of them.
300
703000
3000
in ko ste končali, jih imate nekaj sto.
12:01
But the problem is that people all didn't want all the golf balls.
301
706000
3000
Težava je bila v tem, da ljudje
niso hoteli katerihkoli žogic.
niso hoteli katerihkoli žogic.
12:04
So I just packaged them. I'm like 12, right?
302
709000
2000
Zato sem jih pakiral. Imel sem 12 let.
12:06
I packaged them up three ways.
303
711000
2000
Pakiral sem jih na tri načine.
12:08
I had the Pinnacles and DDHs and the really cool ones back then.
304
713000
2000
Imel sem Pinnacles in DDH in še ene kul.
12:10
Those sold for two dollars each.
305
715000
2000
Te so se prodajale po 2 dolarja.
12:12
And then I had all the good ones that didn't look crappy. They were 50 cents each.
306
717000
3000
Potem sem imel tiste, ne tako slabe
za 50 centov vsaka.
za 50 centov vsaka.
12:15
And then I'd sell 50 at a time of all the crappy ones.
307
720000
3000
In potem sem prodajal
50 slabih v kompletu.
50 slabih v kompletu.
12:18
And they could use those for practice balls.
308
723000
2000
Te so lahko uporabili za treninge.
12:20
I sold sunglasses, when I was in school,
309
725000
2000
V srednji šoli sem prodajal sončna očala
12:22
to all the kids in high school.
310
727000
2000
vsem učencem na šoli.
12:24
This is what really kind of gets everybody hating you
311
729000
3000
To te pripelje do tega,
da te vsi sovražijo
da te vsi sovražijo
12:27
is because you're trying to extract money from all your friends all the time.
312
732000
3000
saj želiš ves čas od vseh
izvleči nekaj denarja.
izvleči nekaj denarja.
12:30
But it paid the bills.
313
735000
2000
Ampak tako sem si plačeval račune.
12:32
So I sold lots and lots of sunglasses.
314
737000
2000
Prodal sem res veliko sončnih očal.
12:34
Then when the school shut me down --
315
739000
2000
Ko je šola ukinila mojo prodajo --
12:36
the school actually called me into the office and told me I couldn't do it --
316
741000
2000
poklicali so me in rekli, da se ne sme -
12:38
so I went to the gas stations and
317
743000
2000
sem odšel na bencinsko črpalko in
12:40
I sold lots of them to the gas stations
318
745000
2000
jim prodal veliko veliko očal,
12:42
and had the gas stations sell them to their customers.
319
747000
2000
oni pa so jih prodajali svojim strankam.
12:44
That was cool because then I had retail outlets.
320
749000
2000
To je bilo kul, imel sem svoje prodajalne.
12:46
And I think I was 14.
321
751000
2000
Mislim, da sem bil star 14 let.
12:48
Then I paid my entire way through first year university at Carlton
322
753000
3000
Potem sem si plačal prvi letnik
študija na fakulteti v Carltonu
študija na fakulteti v Carltonu
12:51
by selling wine skins door to door.
323
756000
2000
s prodajo meha za vino.
12:53
You know that you can hold a 40-ounce bottle of rum
324
758000
2000
Ste vedeli, da lahko drži liter ruma
12:55
and two bottles of coke in a wineskin? So what, right?
325
760000
2000
in dva litra Coca-cole?
Pa kaj boste rekli?
Pa kaj boste rekli?
12:57
Yeah, but you know what? You stuff that down your shorts,
326
762000
2000
Veste kaj? Meh si zatlačite za hlače
12:59
when you go into a football game you can get booze in for free,
327
764000
3000
in ko greste na tekmo nogometa
imate brezplačno pijačo.
imate brezplačno pijačo.
13:02
everybody bought them.
328
767000
2000
Vsi so jih kupovali.
13:04
Supply, demand, big opportunity.
329
769000
3000
Ponudba, povpraševanje,
velika priložnost.
velika priložnost.
13:07
I also branded it, so I sold them for five times the normal cost.
330
772000
2000
Dodal sem "brand"
in prodajal 5x dražje.
in prodajal 5x dražje.
13:09
It had our university logo on it.
331
774000
2000
Imeli so znak univerze.
13:11
You know we teach our kids and we buy them games,
332
776000
2000
Učimo otroke in jim kupujemo igre,
13:13
but why don't we get them games, if they're entrepreneurial kids,
333
778000
3000
toda zakaj jim ne kupujemo tiste
igre, če so otroci podjetni,
igre, če so otroci podjetni,
13:16
that kind of nurture the traits that you need to be entrepreneurs?
334
781000
3000
ki nekako spodbujajo sposobnosti,
ki jih rabimo kot podjetniki?
ki jih rabimo kot podjetniki?
13:19
Why don't you teach them not to waste money?
335
784000
3000
Zakaj jih ne učimo naj ne
trošijo denarja po nepotrebnem.
trošijo denarja po nepotrebnem.
13:22
I remember being told to walk out in the middle of a street in Banff, Alberta
336
787000
3000
Spominjam se, da sem moral na
sredino ceste v Banffu, Alberta,
sredino ceste v Banffu, Alberta,
13:25
because I'd thrown a penny out in the street,
337
790000
2000
ker sem vrgel samo en cent na cesto,
13:27
and my dad said, "Go pick it up."
338
792000
2000
in mi je moj oče rekel: "Pojdi pobrat."
"Trdo delam za denar.
Ne zavrzi niti penija."
Ne zavrzi niti penija."
13:29
He said, "I work too damn hard for my money. I'm not going to see you ever waste a penny."
339
794000
2000
13:31
And I remember that lesson to this day.
340
796000
2000
To lekcijo sem si zapomnil vse do danes.
13:33
Allowances teach kids the wrong habits.
341
798000
3000
Žepnina nauči otroke slabe navade.
13:36
Allowances, by nature, are teaching kids
342
801000
2000
Žepnina uči otroke
13:38
to think about a job.
343
803000
2000
da razmišljajo o službi.
13:40
An entrepreneur doesn't expect a regular paycheck.
344
805000
3000
Podjetnik ne pričakuje redne plače.
13:43
Allowance is breeding kids at a young age
345
808000
2000
Žepnina pa uči otroke,
13:45
to expect a regular paycheck.
346
810000
2000
da pričakujejo redno plačilo.
13:47
That's wrong, for me, if you want to raise entrepreneurs.
347
812000
2000
To je narobe, če želite
vzgojiti podjetnika.
vzgojiti podjetnika.
13:49
What I do with my kids now -- I've got two, nine and seven --
348
814000
2000
Kar delam jaz - otroci so 2, 9 in 7 -
13:51
is I teach them to walk around the house and the yard,
349
816000
2000
je, da hodijo po hiši in dvorišču
13:53
looking for stuff that needs to get done.
350
818000
2000
iščejo stvari, ki jih je treba narediti.
13:55
Come to me and tell me what it is.
351
820000
2000
Potem pridejo k meni in povedo kaj je.
13:57
Or I'll come to them and say, "Here's what I need done."
352
822000
2000
Ali pa jaz rečem: "To je treba narediti."
13:59
And then you know what we do? We negotiate.
353
824000
2000
In veste kaj naredimo potem? Pogajamo se.
14:01
They go around looking for what it is.
354
826000
2000
Oni to iščejo.
14:03
But then we negotiate on what they're going to get paid.
355
828000
2000
Potem pa se pogajamo koliko bodo plačani.
14:05
And then they don't have a regular check, but they have more opportunities to find more stuff,
356
830000
3000
Nimajo redne plače, imajo
pa več možnosti najti več stvari ,
pa več možnosti najti več stvari ,
14:08
and they learn the skill of negotiating,
357
833000
2000
in se naučiti veščine pogajanja
14:10
and they learn the skill of finding opportunities as well.
358
835000
2000
in veščine iskanja priložnosti.
14:12
You breed that kind of stuff. Each of my kids has two piggy banks.
359
837000
3000
Take stvari se gojijo. Vsak
otrok ima dva hranilnika.
otrok ima dva hranilnika.
14:15
Fifty percent of all the money that they earn or get gifted,
360
840000
2000
50 % zasluženega ali dobljenega denarja
14:17
50 percent goes in their house account,
361
842000
2000
gre v hišni račun,
14:19
50 percent goes in their toy account.
362
844000
2000
druga polovica gre na račun za igrače.
14:21
Anything in their toy account they can spend on whatever they want.
363
846000
2000
Denar na računu za igrače lahko porabijo.
14:23
The 50 percent that goes in their house account, every six months, goes to the bank.
364
848000
3000
Denar s hišnega računa
damo vsakih 6 mesecev na banko.
damo vsakih 6 mesecev na banko.
14:26
They walk up with me. Every year all the money in the bank goes to their broker.
365
851000
3000
Otroci gredo z mano. Denar iz banke
gre k borznim posrednikom.
gre k borznim posrednikom.
14:29
Both my nine- and seven-year-olds have a stock broker already.
366
854000
3000
Oba moja otroka imata
borznega posrednika.
borznega posrednika.
14:33
But I'm teaching them to force that savings habit.
367
858000
2000
Toda, učim jih navad varčevanja.
14:35
It drives me crazy that 30-year-olds are saying,
368
860000
3000
Ponorim, če k meni pristopi
30-letnik in reče:
30-letnik in reče:
14:38
"Maybe I'll start contributing to my RSP now."
369
863000
2000
"Mogoče bom začel varčevati za starost."
14:40
Shit, you've missed 25 years.
370
865000
2000
Hej, zamudil si 25 let.
14:42
You can teach those habits to young kids
371
867000
2000
Teh navad naučite majhne otroke,
14:44
when they don't even feel the pain yet.
372
869000
2000
ko jih varčevanje še ne "boli".
14:46
Don't read them bedtime stories every night.
373
871000
2000
Ne berite jim pravljice vsak večer.
14:48
Maybe four nights out of the week read them bedtime stories
374
873000
2000
Morda štiri večere berite vi,
14:50
and three nights of the week have them tell stories.
375
875000
2000
tri večere pa naj pripovedujejo oni.
14:52
Why don't you sit down with kids and give them four items,
376
877000
3000
Zakaj se ne usedete z otroki
in jim date štiri predmete,
in jim date štiri predmete,
14:55
a red shirt, a blue tie, a kangaroo and a laptop,

rdečo majico, modro kravato,
kenguruja in prenosni računalnik
kenguruja in prenosni računalnik
14:58
and have them tell a story about those four things?
378
883000
2000
in naj vam povedo zgodbo o teh stvareh?
15:00
My kids do that all the time.
379
885000
2000
Moji otroci to delajo ves čas.
15:02
It teaches them to sell; it teaches them creativity;
380
887000
2000
To jih uči prodajati, biti kreativen,
15:04
it teaches them to think on their feet.
381
889000
2000
uči jih, da sami razmišljajo.
15:06
Just do that kind of stuff and have fun with it.
382
891000
2000
Delajte take stvari in se zabavajte.
15:08
Get kids to stand up in front of groups and talk,
383
893000
2000
Postavite otroke v situacijo, da govorijo,
15:10
even if it's just stand up in front of their friends
384
895000
2000
pa čeprav samo pred prijatelji
15:12
and do plays and have speeches.
385
897000
2000
naj imajo predstave ali govore.
15:14
Those are entrepreneurial traits that you want to be nurturing.
386
899000
2000
Te podjetniške veščine razvijajte.
15:16
Show the kids what bad customers or bad employees look like.
387
901000
3000
Pokažite otrokom kako zgledajo
slabe stranke in slabi zaposleni.
slabe stranke in slabi zaposleni.
15:19
Show them the grumpy employees.
388
904000
2000
Pokažite jim godrnjave delavce.
15:21
When you see grumpy customer service, point that out to them.
389
906000
2000
Ko vidite slabo storitev, jim jo pokažite.
15:23
Say, "By the way, that guy's a crappy employee."
390
908000
2000
Recite: "Tale tam je slab delavec."
15:25
And say, "These ones are good ones."
391
910000
3000
In recite: "Tile pa so dobri."
15:28
(Laughter)
392
913000
2000
(Smeh)
15:30
If you go into a restaurant and you have bad customer service,
393
915000
2000
Ko greste v lokal in je postrežba slaba,
15:32
show them what bad customer service looks like.
394
917000
2000
jim pokažite, kaj je slaba postrežba.
15:34
(Laughter)
395
919000
2000
(Smeh)
15:36
We have all these lessons in front of us,
396
921000
2000
Teh lekcij je polno okrog nas,
15:38
but we don't take those opportunities; we teach kids to go get a tutor.
397
923000
3000
a ne izkoristimo priložnosti;
otrokom iščemo inštruktorje.
otrokom iščemo inštruktorje.
15:41
Imagine if you actually took
398
926000
2000
Predstavljajte si, da vzamete
15:43
all the kids' junk that's in the house right now,
399
928000
2000
vso otroško šaro, ki jih imate po hiši,
15:45
all the toys that they've outgrown two years ago
400
930000
2000
vse igrače, ki so jih prerasli pred leti
15:47
and said, "Why don't we start selling some of this on Craigslist and Kijiji?"
401
932000
3000
in rečete: "Zakaj jih ne
bi prodali na Bolhi?"
bi prodali na Bolhi?"
15:50
And they can actually sell it
402
935000
2000
In lahko jih resnično prodajo
15:52
and learn how to find scammers when they get email offers come in.
403
937000
2000
in se naučijo prepoznati prevarante.
15:54
They can come into your account or a sub account or whatever.
404
939000
2000
Plačila pridejo na vaš ali otrokov račun.
15:56
But teach them how to fix the price, guess the price,
405
941000
3000
Naučite jih, kako določijo
ceno, uganejo ceno,
ceno, uganejo ceno,
15:59
pull up the photos.
406
944000
2000
naložijo fotografije.
16:01
Teach them how to do that kind of stuff and make money.
407
946000
2000
Naučite jih, kako naj s tem zaslužijo.
16:03
Then the money they get, 50 percent goes in their house account,
408
948000
2000
In denar gre spet 50 % na hišni račun
16:05
50 percent goes in their toy account.
409
950000
2000
in 50 % na račun za igrače.
16:07
My kids love this stuff.
410
952000
2000
Moji otroci to obožujejo.
16:09
Some of the entrepreneurial traits that you've got to nurture in kids:
411
954000
3000
Nekaj podjetniških veščin,
ki jih razvijajte pri otrocih so:
ki jih razvijajte pri otrocih so:
16:12
attainment, tenacity, leadership, introspection, interdependence, values.
412
957000
3000
uspeh, vztrajnost, vodenje,
spraševanje, soodvisnost, vrednte.
spraševanje, soodvisnost, vrednte.
16:15
All these traits you can find in young kids, and you can help nurture them.
413
960000
3000
Vse to lahko najdete pri otrocih
in jih samo pomagate ohraniti.
in jih samo pomagate ohraniti.
16:18
Look for that kind of stuff.
414
963000
2000
Bodite pozorni na te stvari.
16:20
There's two traits that I want you to also look out for
415
965000
2000
Sta pa še dve lastnosti, ki ju poiščite,
16:22
that we don't kind of get out of their system.
416
967000
3000
saj jih nekako pri otrocih ne izkoristimo.
16:25
Don't medicate kids for attention deficit disorder
417
970000
2000
Ne zdravite pomanjkanja pozornosti,
16:27
unless it is really, really freaking bad.
418
972000
2000
če ni to res zelo izraženo.
16:29
(Applause)
419
974000
2000
(Aplavz)
16:31
The same with the whole things on mania and stress and depression,
420
976000
3000
Isto velja za maničnost,
stres in depresijo,
stres in depresijo,
16:34
unless it is so clinically brutal, man.
421
979000
2000
če ni zdravstveno dokazano, da je resno.
16:36
Bipolar disorder is nicknamed the CEO disease.
422
981000
2000
Bipolarni motnji pravijo
bolezen direktorjev.
bolezen direktorjev.
16:38
When Steve Jurvetson and Jim Clark
423
983000
2000
Ko so Steve Jurvetson, Jim Clark
16:40
and Jim Barksdale have all got it,
424
985000
2000
in Jim Barksdale vsi imeli to motnjo
16:42
and they built Netscape --
425
987000
2000
in zgradili Netscape --
16:44
imagine if they were given Ritalin.
426
989000
2000
Pomislite, če bi jim dali pomirjevalo,
16:46
We wouldn't have have that stuff, right?
427
991000
2000
nekaterih stvari danes
ne bi imeli, kaj ne?
ne bi imeli, kaj ne?
16:48
Al Gore really would have had to invented the Internet.
428
993000
3000
Al Gore bi moral izumiti internet.
16:51
(Laughter)
429
996000
2000
(Smeh)
16:53
These skills are the skills we should be teaching in the classroom
430
998000
2000
Te veščine bi morali učiti v učilnicah,
16:55
as well as everything else.
431
1000000
2000
kot tudi vse druge.
16:57
I'm not saying don't get kids to want to be lawyers.
432
1002000
2000
Ne rečem, naj otroci ne bodo odvetniki.
16:59
But how about getting entrepreneurship
433
1004000
2000
Toda podjetništvo naj bo tudi
17:01
to be ranked right up there with the rest of them as well?
434
1006000
2000
nekje zraven med ostalimi poklici.
17:03
Because there's huge opportunities in that.
435
1008000
2000
Ker tukaj obstajajo velike priložnosti.
17:05
I want to close with a quick little video.
436
1010000
2000
Želim zaključiti
s kratkim video posnetkom.
s kratkim video posnetkom.
17:07
It's a video that was done by one of the companies that I mentor.
437
1012000
3000
Izdelalo ga je podjetje, ki mu svetujem.
17:10
These guys, Grasshopper.
438
1015000
2000
Ti fantje, Grashopper (kobilica).
17:12
It's about kids. It's about entrepreneurship.
439
1017000
2000
Govori o otrocih. O podjetništvu.
17:14
Hopefully this inspires you to take what you've heard from me
440
1019000
3000
Upam, da vas bo navdahnil, da
vzamete, kar ste slišali od mene
vzamete, kar ste slišali od mene
17:17
and do something with it to change the world.
441
1022000
2000
in s tem naredite spremembe v svetu.
17:19
[Kid ... "And you thought you could do anything?"]
442
1024000
3000
[Otrok... "In si mislil,
da lahko narediš karkoli?"]
da lahko narediš karkoli?"]
17:22
[You still can.]
443
1027000
2000
[In še vedno lahko]
17:24
[Because a lot of what we consider impossible ...]
444
1029000
2000
[Ker veliko tega, kar
vidimo kot nemogoče…]
vidimo kot nemogoče…]
17:26
[... is easy to overcome]
445
1031000
3000
[… je možno doseči]
17:29
[Because in case you haven't noticed, we live in a place where]
446
1034000
3000
[Ker če še ste nisi opazil,
živimo v okolju, kjer]
živimo v okolju, kjer]
17:32
[One individual can make a difference]
447
1037000
3000
[posameznik lahko naredi spremembo]
17:35
[Want proof?]
448
1040000
1000
[Želiš dokaz?]
17:36
[Just look at the people who built our country;]
449
1041000
1000
[Poglej očete države]
17:37
[Our parents, grandparents, our aunts, uncles ...]
450
1042000
3000
[Naše starše, dedke in
babice, tete, strice...]
babice, tete, strice...]
17:40
[They were immigrants, newcomers ready to make their mark]
451
1045000
3000
[Oni so bili priseljenci,
pripravljeni narediti sled]
pripravljeni narediti sled]
17:43
[Maybe they came with very little]
452
1048000
3000
[Mogoče se prišlo z zelo malo]
17:46
[Or perhaps they didn't own anything except for ...]
453
1051000
3000
[Mogoče brez česarkoli, nič razen...]
17:49
[... a single brilliant idea]
454
1054000
3000
[… ene same samcate briljantne ideje]
17:52
[These people were thinkers, doers ...]
455
1057000
3000
[Ti ljudje so bili misleci, izvajalci…]
17:55
[... innovators ...]
456
1060000
2000
[… inovatorji…]
17:57
[... until they came up with the name ...]
457
1062000
3000
[... vse dokler se niso izmislili imena…]
18:01
[... entrepreneurs!]
458
1066000
3000
[… podjetniki!]
18:04
[They change the way we think about what is possible.]
459
1069000
3000
[Oni spreminjajo naše mnenje
o tem, kaj je možno.]
o tem, kaj je možno.]
18:07
[They have a clear vision of how life can be better]
460
1072000
2000
[Imajo jasno vizijo boljšem življenju]
18:09
[for all of us, even when times are tough.]
461
1074000
3000
[za vse nas, tudi ko so časi težki.]
18:12
[Right now, it's hard to see ...]
462
1077000
2000
[V tem trenutku je težko vedeti…]
18:14
[... when our view is cluttered with obstacles.]
463
1079000
2000
[… ko je naš pogled zakrit z ovirami.]
18:16
[But turbulence creates opportunities]
464
1081000
3000
[Toda turbulence ustvarjajo priložnosti
18:19
[for success, achievement, and pushes us ...]
465
1084000
3000
[za uspehe, dosežke in nas potiskajo…]
18:22
[to discover new ways of doing things]
466
1087000
3000
[da odkrijemo nove načine delovanja.]
18:25
[So what opportunities will you go after and why?]
467
1090000
3000
[Torej, kateri priložnosti
boste sledili vi in zakaj?]
boste sledili vi in zakaj?]
18:28
[If you're an entrepreneur]
468
1093000
3000
[Če ste podjetnik]
18:31
[you know that risk isn't the reward.]
469
1096000
3000
[veste, da tveganje ni nagrada.]
18:34
[No. The rewards are driving innovation ...]
470
1099000
2000
[Ne. Nagrada je delati inovacije…]
18:36
[... changing people's lives. Creating jobs.]
471
1101000
3000
[… spreminjati človeška življenja,
ustvarjati delovna mesta.]
ustvarjati delovna mesta.]
18:39
[Fueling growth.]
472
1104000

[…biti povezan s prijatelji
po celem svetu]
po celem svetu]
18:52
[And they're finding new ways of helping to solve society's oldest problems.]

18:55
[Do you know an entrepreneur?]
479

2000
[Poznate podjetnika?]
18:57
[Entrepreneurs can be anyone ...]

[But most importantly,]
486

2000
[Ampak najpomembneje,]
19:10
[remember when you were a kid ...]
487
1135000
3000
[spomni se, ko si bil otrok…]
19:13
[when everything was within you reach,]
488
1138000
3000
[ko ti je bilo vse na dosegu roke,]
19:16
[and then say to yourself quietly, but with determination:]
