When I was seven years old and my sister was just five years old,
0

3000
Kada sam imao sedam godina, a moja sestra pet,
00:18
we were playing on top of a bunk bed.
1
3000
3000
igrali smo se na krevetu na sprat.
00:21
I was two years older than my sister at the time --
2
6000
2000
Tada sam bio dve godine stariji od nje --
00:23
I mean, I'm two years older than her now --
3
8000
3000
mislim, i sad sam stariji od nje dve godine --
00:26
but at the time it meant she had to do everything that I wanted to do,
4
11000
3000
ali tada je to značilo da je ona morala raditi sve što sam ja želeo da radim,
00:29
and I wanted to play war.
5
14000
2000
a ja sam hteo da se igram rata.
00:31
So we were up on top of our bunk beds.
6
16000
2000
Dakle, bili smo na krevetu na sprat.
00:33
And on one side of the bunk bed,
7
18000
2000
Sa jedne strane kreveta,
00:35
I had put out all of my G.I. Joe soldiers and weaponry.
8
20000
2000
sam postavio sve svoje plastične vojnike i naoružanje.
00:37
And on the other side were all my sister's My Little Ponies
9
22000
3000
A sa druge strane su bili svi Mali Poniji moje sestre
00:40
ready for a cavalry charge.
10
25000
2000
spremni za konjički juriš.
00:42
There are differing accounts of what actually happened that afternoon,
11
27000
2000
Postoje oprečni stavovi o tome šta se dogodilo tog popodneva,
00:44
but since my sister is not here with us today,
12
29000
3000
a s obzirom da moja sestra danas nije ovde sa nama,
00:47
let me tell you the true story --
13
32000
2000
dozvolite mi da vam ispričam istinitu verziju priče --
00:49
(Laughter) --
14
34000
2000
(Smeh) --
00:51
which is my sister's a little bit on the clumsy side.
15
36000
2000
a to je, da je moja sestra malo nespretna.
00:53
Somehow, without any help or push from her older brother at all,
16
38000
3000
Bez pomoći ili guranja od strane njenog starijeg brata,
00:56
suddenly Amy disappeared off of the top of the bunk bed
17
41000
2000
Ejmi je iznenada nestala sa kreveta na sprat
00:58
and landed with this crash on the floor.
18
43000
2000
i pala uz tresak na pod.
01:00
Now I nervously peered over the side of the bed
19
45000
2000
Nervozno sam provirio preko ivice kreveta
01:02
to see what had befallen my fallen sister
20
47000
3000
da vidim šta je snašlo moju palu sestru
01:05
and saw that she had landed painfully on her hands and knees
21
50000
2000
i video kako se bolno prizemljila
01:07
on all fours on the ground.
22
52000
2000
sa sve četri na zemlji.
01:09
I was nervous because my parents had charged me
23
54000
2000
Bio sam uplašen jer su me roditelji zadužili
01:11
with making sure that my sister and I
24
56000
2000
da vodim računa da se moja sestra i ja
01:13
played as safely and as quietly as possible.
25
58000
3000
igramo što bezbednije i što tiše moguće.
01:16
And seeing as how I had accidentally broken Amy's arm
26
61000
3000
Uzimajući u obzir da sam slučajno slomio Ejminu ruku
01:19
just one week before ...
27
64000
2000
svega nedelju dana ranije ...
01:21
(Laughter)
28
66000
4000
(Smeh)
01:25
... heroically pushing her out of the way
29
70000
2000
... junački je gurnuvši kako bi izbegla
01:27
of an oncoming imaginary sniper bullet,
30
72000
3000
zamišljeni snajperski metak koji joj se približavao,
01:30
(Laughter)
31
75000
2000
(Smeh)
01:32
for which I have yet to be thanked,
32
77000
2000
još uvek mi se nije zahvalila,
01:34
I was trying as hard as I could --
33
79000
2000
trudio sam se koliko sam mogao --
01:36
she didn't even see it coming --
34
81000
2000
nije ga ni videla --
01:38
I was trying as hard as I could to be on my best behavior.
35
83000
2000
trudio sam da se ponašam najbolje što mogu.
01:40
And I saw my sister's face,
36
85000
2000
Video sam sestrino lice,
01:42
this wail of pain and suffering and surprise
37
87000
2000
plač bola i patnje i iznenađenja
01:44
threatening to erupt from her mouth and threatening to wake
38
89000
2000
koji je pretio da izbije iz njenih usta i probudi
01:46
my parents from the long winter's nap for which they had settled.
39
91000
3000
moje roditelje iz dubokog zimskog sna koji su usnuli.
01:49
So I did the only thing
40
94000
2000
Stoga sam uradio jedinu stvar
01:51
my little frantic seven year-old brain could think to do to avert this tragedy.
41
96000
3000
koju je moj sedmogodišnji mozak mogao da smisli i izbegne ovu tragediju.
01:54
And if you have children, you've seen this hundreds of times before.
42
99000
2000
Roditelji su ovo videli na stotine puta.
01:56
I said, "Amy, Amy, wait. Don't cry. Don't cry.
43
101000
2000
Rekao sam, "Ejmi, stani. Nemoj plakati.
01:58
Did you see how you landed?
44
103000
2000
Jesi videla kako si se prizemljila?
02:00
No human lands on all fours like that.
45
105000
3000
Nijedno ljudsko biće ne sleće tako.
02:03
Amy, I think this means you're a unicorn."
46
108000
3000
Ejmi, mislim da to znači da si ti jednorog."
02:06
(Laughter)
47
111000
3000
(Smeh)
02:09
Now that was cheating, because there was nothing in the world my sister would want more
48
114000
3000
Nije postojalo ništa na svetu što bi moja sestra više želela
02:12
than not to be Amy the hurt five year-old little sister,
49
117000
2000
nego da ne bude Ejmi petogodišnja povređena sestra,
02:14
but Amy the special unicorn.
50
119000
2000
već Ejmi specijalni jednorog.
02:16
Of course, this was an option that was open to her brain at no point in the past.
51
121000
3000
To je bila mogućnost koja nikada u prošlosti njoj nije bila dostupna.
02:19
And you could see how my poor, manipulated sister faced conflict,
52
124000
3000
I moglo se videti kako je moja jadna sestra suočena sa konfliktom,
02:22
as her little brain attempted to devote resources
53
127000
2000
dok je njen mozak posvećivao resurse
02:24
to feeling the pain and suffering and surprise
54
129000
2000
osećanju bola i patnje i iznenađenja
02:26
she just experienced,
55
131000
2000
koje je upravo iskusila,
02:28
or contemplating her new-found identity as a unicorn.
56
133000
2000
ili razmišljanju o novo-otkrivenom identitetu jednoroga.
02:30
And the latter won out.
57
135000
2000
Potonji je pobedio na kraju.
02:32
Instead of crying, instead of ceasing our play,
58
137000
2000
Umesto da zaplače, umesto da prekine naše igranje,
02:34
instead of waking my parents,
59
139000
2000
umesto da probudi moje roditelje,
02:36
with all the negative consequences that would have ensued for me,
60
141000
2000
sa svim negativnim posledicama po mene,
02:38
instead a smile spread across her face
61
143000
2000
umesto toga osmeh se raširio njenim licem
02:40
and she scrambled right back up onto the bunk bed with all the grace of a baby unicorn ...
62
145000
3000
i uspentrala se nazad na krevet sa svom gracioznošću bebe jednoroga ...
02:43
(Laughter)
63
148000
2000
(Smeh)
02:45
... with one broken leg.
64
150000
2000
... sa jednom slomljenom nogom.
02:47
What we stumbled across
65
152000
2000
Na šta smo naleteli
02:49
at this tender age of just five and seven --
66
154000
2000
u tom nežnom dobu od samo pet i sedam --
02:51
we had no idea at the time --
67
156000
2000
tada nismo imali pojma --
02:53
was something that was going be at the vanguard of a scientific revolution
68
158000
3000
je bilo nešto što će biti avangarda naučne revolucije
02:56
occurring two decades later in the way that we look at the human brain.
69
161000
3000
koja će se odigrati dve decenije kasnije u načinu na koji shvatamo ljudski mozak.
02:59
What we had stumbled across is something called positive psychology,
70
164000
3000
Na šta smo naleteli je nešto što se zove pozitivistička psihologija,
03:02
which is the reason that I'm here today
71
167000
2000
koja je razlog što sam ja danas ovde
03:04
and the reason that I wake up every morning.
72
169000
2000
i razlog zbog koga se budim svako jutro.
03:06
When I first started talking about this research
73
171000
2000
Kada sam počinjao da pričam o ovim istraživanjima
03:08
outside of academia, out with companies and schools,
74
173000
2000
izvan akademskih krugova, u kompanijama i školama,
03:10
the very first thing they said to never do
75
175000
2000
prva stvar koja su mi rekli da nikad ne uradim
03:12
is to start your talk with a graph.
76
177000
2000
je otpočinjanje predavanja grafikom.
03:14
The very first thing I want to do is start my talk with a graph.
77
179000
2000
Prva stvar koju želim da uradim je da počnem predavanje sa grafikom.
03:16
This graph looks boring,
78
181000
2000
Ovaj grafik izgleda dosadno,
03:18
but this graph is the reason I get excited and wake up every morning.
79
183000
2000
ali ovaj grafik je razlog mog uzbuđenja i ustajanja svako jutro.
03:20
And this graph doesn't even mean anything; it's fake data.
80
185000
2000
A ovaj grafik nema značaj, to su lažni podaci.
03:22
What we found is --
81
187000
2000
Ono što smo otkrili --
03:24
(Laughter)
82
189000
4000
(Smeh)
03:28
If I got this data back studying you here in the room, I would be thrilled,
83
193000
3000
Kada bih dobio ovakve podatke proučavajući vas koji sedite ovde, bio bih oduševljen,
03:31
because there's very clearly a trend that's going on there,
84
196000
2000
jer očigledno postoji trend na tom grafiku
03:33
and that means that I can get published,
85
198000
2000
što znači da se moj rad može objaviti,
03:35
which is all that really matters.
86
200000
2000
što je jedino stvarno važno.
03:37
The fact that there's one weird red dot that's up above the curve,
87
202000
2000
Činjenica da postoji jedna crvena tačka iznad krive,
03:39
there's one weirdo in the room --
88
204000
2000
postoji jedan čudak u prostoriji --
03:41
I know who you are, I saw you earlier --
89
206000
3000
znam ko ste, video sam Vas malopre --
03:44
that's no problem.
90
209000
2000
to nije problem.
03:46
That's no problem, as most of you know,
91
211000
2000
To nije problem, kao što većina vas zna,
03:48
because I can just delete that dot.
92
213000
2000
jer mogu jednostavno da obrišem tu tačku.
03:50
I can delete that dot because that's clearly a measurement error.
93
215000
2000
Mogu da je obrišem jer je ona očigledno greška pri merenju.
03:52
And we know that's a measurement error
94
217000
2000
A znamo da je to greška pri merenju
03:54
because it's messing up my data.
95
219000
3000
jer kvari moje podatke.
03:57
So one of the very first things we teach people
96
222000
2000
Jedna od prvih stvari koje učimo ljude
03:59
in economics and statistics and business and psychology courses
97
224000
3000
u kursevima o ekonomiji i statistici i poslovanju i psihologiji
04:02
is how, in a statistically valid way, do we eliminate the weirdos.
98
227000
3000
je kako, na statistički pravilan način, eliminisati čudake.
04:05
How do we eliminate the outliers
99
230000
2000
Kako eliminišemo neprilagođene
04:07
so we can find the line of best fit?
100
232000
2000
u traganju za linijom najboljeg poklapanja?
04:09
Which is fantastic if I'm trying to find out
101
234000
2000
Što je izvanredno ako me zanima
04:11
how many Advil the average person should be taking -- two.
102
236000
3000
koliko Advila bi prosečna osoba trebala da uzima -- dva.
04:14
But if I'm interested in potential, if I'm interested in your potential,
103
239000
2000
Ali ako sam zainteresovan za potencijal, za vaš potencijal,
04:16
or for happiness or productivity
104
241000
2000
ili za sreću ili produktivnost
04:18
or energy or creativity,
105
243000
2000
ili energiju ili kreativnost,
04:20
what we're doing is we're creating the cult of the average with science.
106
245000
2000
mi stvaramo kult prosečnosti putem nauke.
04:22
If I asked a question like,
107
247000
2000
Kada bih postavio pitanje poput,
04:24
"How fast can a child learn how to read in a classroom?"
108
249000
2000
Koliko brzo dete uči da čita u učionici?
04:26
scientists change the answer to "How fast does the average child
109
251000
2000
naučnici menjaju odgovor u "Koliko brzo prosečno dete
04:28
learn how to read in that classroom?"
110
253000
2000
nauči da čita u toj učionici?"
04:30
and then we tailor the class right towards the average.
111
255000
2000
a potom usmeravamo razred pravo ka proseku.
04:32
Now if you fall below the average on this curve,
112
257000
2000
Ako se nađete ispod proseka na krivoj,
04:34
then psychologists get thrilled,
113
259000
2000
to oduševljava psihologe,
04:36
because that means you're either depressed or you have a disorder,
114
261000
3000
jer to znači da ste ili depresivni ili imate nekakav poremećaj,
04:39
or hopefully both.
115
264000
2000
ili sa malo sreće oba.
04:41
We're hoping for both because our business model is,
116
266000
2000
Mi se nadamo da su oba jer je naš poslovni model,
04:43
if you come into a therapy session with one problem,
117
268000
2000
ako nam dođete sa jednim problemom,
04:45
we want to make sure you leave knowing you have 10,
118
270000
2000
želimo biti sigurni da ćete izaći znajući da imate 10,
04:47
so you keep coming back over and over again.
119
272000
2000
kako biste nastavili da dolazite iz dana u dan.
04:49
We'll go back into your childhood if necessary,
120
274000
2000
Ako treba vratićemo se u vaše detinjstvo,
04:51
but eventually what we want to do is make you normal again.
121
276000
2000
ipak naš cilj je da vas ponovo učinimo normalnim.
04:53
But normal is merely average.
122
278000
2000
Ali normalno je naprosto prosečno.
04:55
And what I posit and what positive psychology posits
123
280000
2000
Ono što ja i pozitivistička psihologija zastupamo
04:57
is that if we study what is merely average,
124
282000
2000
je da proučavanjem nečega što je samo prosečno,
04:59
we will remain merely average.
125
284000
2000
mi ostajemo samo prosečni.
05:01
Then instead of deleting those positive outliers,
126
286000
2000
Stoga umesto da brišem te pozitivne neprilagođene,
05:03
what I intentionally do is come into a population like this one
127
288000
2000
ja dolazim u društvenu grupu poput ove
05:05
and say, why?
128
290000
2000
i kažem, zašto?
05:07
Why is it that some of you are so high above the curve
129
292000
2000
Zašto su neki od vas toliko iznad krive
05:09
in terms of your intellectual ability, athletic ability, musical ability,
130
294000
2000
po pitanju intelektualnih, atletskih, muzičkih sposobnosti,
05:11
creativity, energy levels,
131
296000
2000
kreativnosti, nivoa energije,
05:13
your resiliency in the face of challenge, your sense of humor?
132
298000
2000
vaše odlučnosti pri suočavanju sa izazovom, vašeg smisla za humor?
05:15
Whatever it is, instead of deleting you, what I want to do is study you.
133
300000
3000
Štagod da je, umesto da vas obrišem, ja želim da vas proučavam.
05:18
Because maybe we can glean information --
134
303000
2000
Zato što možda možemo prikupiti informacije --
05:20
not just how to move people up to the average,
135
305000
2000
ne samo kako podići ljude ka proseku,
05:22
but how we can move the entire average up
136
307000
3000
već kako podići celokupan prosek
05:25
in our companies and schools worldwide.
137
310000
2000
u našim firmama i školama širom sveta.
05:27
The reason this graph is important to me
138
312000
2000
Razlog zbog kojeg mi je ovaj grafik važan
05:29
is, when I turn on the news, it seems like the majority of the information
139
314000
2000
je, kada uključim vesti, čini mi se da većina informacija
05:31
is not positive, in fact it's negative.
140
316000
2000
nije pozitivna, već zapravo negativna.
05:33
Most of it's about murder, corruption, diseases, natural disasters.
141
318000
3000
Većina je o ubistvima, korupciji, bolestima, prirodnim katastrofama,
05:36
And very quickly, my brain starts to think
142
321000
2000
Veoma brzo moj mozak počinje da misli
05:38
that's the accurate ratio of negative to positive in the world.
143
323000
2000
da je to tačan odnos negativnog i pozitivnog u svetu.
05:40
What that's doing is creating something
144
325000
2000
To stvara nešto
05:42
called the medical school syndrome --
145
327000
2000
što se zove sindrom medicinske škole --
05:44
which, if you know people who've been to medical school,
146
329000
2000
koji, ako znate ljude koji su išli u medicinsku školu,
05:46
during the first year of medical training,
147
331000
2000
tokom prve godine medicinske obuke,
05:48
as you read through a list of all the symptoms and diseases that could happen,
148
333000
2000
dok čitate spisak raznih simptoma i bolesti,
05:50
suddenly you realize you have all of them.
149
335000
2000
iznenada shvatate da ih imate sve.
05:52
I have a brother in-law named Bobo -- which is a whole other story.
150
337000
3000
Imam zeta po imenu Bobo -- što je priča sama po sebi.
05:55
Bobo married Amy the unicorn.
151
340000
3000
Bobo se oženio sa jednorogom Ejmi.
05:58
Bobo called me on the phone
152
343000
3000
Bobo me je pozvao telefonom
06:01
from Yale Medical School,
153
346000
3000
sa Medicinske škole Jejla,
06:04
and Bobo said, "Shawn, I have leprosy."
154
349000
2000
i Bobo je rekao,"Šone, imam lepru."
06:06
(Laughter)
155
351000
2000
(Smeh)
06:08
Which, even at Yale, is extraordinarily rare.
156
353000
2000
Što je, čak i na Jejlu, izuzetna retkost.
06:10
But I had no idea how to console poor Bobo
157
355000
3000
No, nisam imao nikakvu ideju kako da utešim jadnog Boboa
06:13
because he had just gotten over an entire week of menopause.
158
358000
2000
koji je upravo preboleo čitavu nedelju menopauze.
06:15
(Laughter)
159
360000
2000
(Smeh)
06:17
See what we're finding is it's not necessarily the reality that shapes us,
160
362000
3000
Vidite, otkrivamo da nas ne uobličuje prvenstveno stvarnost,
06:20
but the lens through which your brain views the world that shapes your reality.
161
365000
3000
već je uobličuju sočiva kroz koja vaš mozak posmatra svet.
06:23
And if we can change the lens, not only can we change your happiness,
162
368000
3000
Ako možemo promeniti sočiva, ne samo da možemo promeniti svoju sreću,
06:26
we can change every single educational and business outcome at the same time.
163
371000
3000
možemo istovremeno promeniti svaki pojedinačni obrazovni ili poslovni ishod.
06:29
When I applied to Harvard, I applied on a dare.
164
374000
2000
Prijavio sam se na Harvard kao izazov.
06:31
I didn't expect to get in, and my family had no money for college.
165
376000
3000
Nisam očekivao da upadnem, moja porodica nije imala novca za koledž.
06:34
When I got a military scholarship two weeks later, they allowed me to go.
166
379000
2000
Dobivši vojnu stipendiju dve nedelje kasnije, dozvolili su mi da odem.
06:36
Suddenly, something that wasn't even a possibility became a reality.
167
381000
3000
Iznenada, nešto što nije bilo ni mogućnost postalo je stvarnost.
06:39
When I went there, I assumed everyone else would see it as a privilege as well,
168
384000
3000
Pri odlasku, pretpostavljao sam da će i svi ostali to smatrati privilegijom,
06:42
that they'd be excited to be there.
169
387000
2000
da će biti uzbuđeni što su tamo.
06:44
Even if you're in a classroom full of people smarter than you,
170
389000
2000
Čak i u učioici punoj ljudi pametnijih od sebe,
06:46
you'd be happy just to be in that classroom, which is what I felt.
171
391000
2000
bio bi sretan samo što si u toj učionici, što sam ja osećao.
06:48
But what I found there
172
393000
2000
Ali ono što sam tamo otkrio
06:50
is, while some people experience that,
173
395000
2000
mada se neki tako osećaju,
06:52
when I graduated after my four years
174
397000
2000
kada sam diplomirao nakon četiri godine
06:54
and then spent the next eight years living in the dorms with the students --
175
399000
2000
i proveo sledećih osam godina živeći u studentskom domu --
06:56
Harvard asked me to; I wasn't that guy.
176
401000
3000
Harvard me je zamolio; nisam bio taj momak.
06:59
(Laughter)
177
404000
4000
(Smeh)
07:03
I was an officer of Harvard to counsel students through the difficult four years.
178
408000
3000
Vršio sam savetovanje studenata kroz teške četiri godine.
07:06
And what I found in my research and my teaching
179
411000
2000
U svojim istraživanjima i podučavanju sam otkrio
07:08
is that these students, no matter how happy they were
180
413000
2000
da ovi studenti, ma koliko bili srećni
07:10
with their original success of getting into the school,
181
415000
3000
sa svojim prvobitnim uspehom pri upisu u školu,
07:13
two weeks later their brains were focused, not on the privilege of being there,
182
418000
3000
dve nedelje kasnije fokus njihovog mozga nije bio na privilegiji što su tamo,
07:16
nor on their philosophy or their physics.
183
421000
2000
ili filozofiji ili fizici.
07:18
Their brain was focused on the competition, the workload,
184
423000
2000
Njihov mozak je bio fokusiran na konkurenciju, obaveze,
07:20
the hassles, the stresses, the complaints.
185
425000
2000
muke, stresove, žalbe.
07:22
When I first went in there, I walked into the freshmen dining hall,
186
427000
2000
Prvi put tamo, ušao sam u brucošku trpezariju,
07:24
which is where my friends from Waco, Texas, which is where I grew up --
187
429000
3000
što su moji prijatelji iz Vejka u Tekasasu, gde sam odrastao --
07:27
I know some of you have heard of it.
188
432000
2000
Znam da su neki od vas čuli za Vejko.
07:29
When they'd come to visit me, they'd look around,
189
434000
2000
Prilikom posete, razgledali bi okolo,
07:31
they'd say, "This freshman dining hall looks like something
190
436000
2000
rekli bi, "Ova brucoška trpezarija izgleda kao nešto
07:33
out of Hogwart's from the movie "Harry Potter," which it does.
191
438000
2000
iz Hogvortsa iz filma Hari Poter," što je istina.
07:35
This is Hogwart's from the movie "Harry Potter" and that's Harvard.
192
440000
2000
To je Hogvorts iz filma "Hari Poter" i to je Harvard.
07:37
And when they see this,
193
442000
2000
I kada to vide,
07:39
they say, "Shawn, why do you waste your time studying happiness at Harvard?
194
444000
2000
kažu, "Šone, zašto gubiš vreme proučavajući sreću na Harvardu?
07:41
Seriously, what does a Harvard student possibly have
195
446000
2000
Zaista, zbog čega student Harvarda ima
07:43
to be unhappy about?"
196
448000
2000
da bude nesrećan?"
07:45
Embedded within that question
197
450000
2000
Utisnut u to pitanje
07:47
is the key to understanding the science of happiness.
198
452000
2000
je ključ za razumevanje nauke o sreći.
07:49
Because what that question assumes
199
454000
2000
Ono što to pitanje pretpostavlja
07:51
is that our external world is predictive of our happiness levels,
200
456000
3000
je da naš spoljašnji svet predviđa nivoe naše sreće,
07:54
when in reality, if I know everything about your external world,
201
459000
2000
dok u stvarnosti, znajući sve o vašem spoljnom svetu,
07:56
I can only predict 10 percent of your long-term happiness.
202
461000
3000
mogu predvideti svega 10 posto vaše dugoročne sreće.
07:59
90 percent of your long-term happiness
203
464000
2000
90 posto vaše dugoročne sreće
08:01
is predicted not by the external world,
204
466000
2000
ne predviđa vaš spoljn svet,
08:03
but by the way your brain processes the world.
205
468000
2000
već način na koji vaš mozak obrađuje svet.
08:05
And if we change it,
206
470000
2000
I ako promenimo,
08:07
if we change our formula for happiness and success,
207
472000
2000
ako promenimo formulu za sreću i uspeh,
08:09
what we can do is change the way
208
474000
2000
možemo promeniti način
08:11
that we can then affect reality.
209
476000
2000
kojim potom utičemo na stvarnost.
08:13
What we found is that only 25 percent of job successes
210
478000
2000
Otkrili smo da je svega 25 posto uspeha na poslu
08:15
are predicted by I.Q.
211
480000
2000
predviđeno I.Q.-om
08:17
75 percent of job successes
212
482000
2000
75 posto uspeha na poslu
08:19
are predicted by your optimism levels, your social support
213
484000
3000
određuju vaši nivoi optimizma, vaša društvena podrška
08:22
and your ability to see stress as a challenge instead of as a threat.
214
487000
3000
i vaša sposobnost da shvatate stres kao izazov umesto kao pretnju.
08:25
I talked to a boarding school up in New England, probably the most prestigious boarding school,
215
490000
3000
Razgovarao sam sa izuzetno prestižnim internatom u Novoj Engleskoj,
08:28
and they said, "We already know that.
216
493000
2000
i oni su rekli, "To već znamo.
08:30
So every year, instead of just teaching our students, we also have a wellness week.
217
495000
3000
Svake godine pored podučavanja naših učenika, imamo i nedelju zdravlja.
08:33
And we're so excited. Monday night we have the world's leading expert
218
498000
3000
I zaista smo uzbuđeni. Ponedeljkom uveče nam vodeći svetski ekspert
08:36
coming in to speak about adolescent depression.
219
501000
2000
govori o adolescentskoj depresiji.
08:38
Tuesday night it's school violence and bullying.
220
503000
2000
Utorak veče je školsko nasilje i maltretiranje.
08:40
Wednesday night is eating disorders.
221
505000
2000
Sreda veče su poremećaji u ishrani.
08:42
Thursday night is elicit drug use.
222
507000
2000
Četvrtak veče je upotreba opojnih droga
08:44
And Friday night we're trying to decide between risky sex or happiness."
223
509000
3000
Petak veče pokušavamo se odlučiti između rizičnog seksa i sreće."
08:47
(Laughter)
224
512000
3000
(Smeh)
08:50
I said, "That's most people's Friday nights."
225
515000
2000
Rekao sam, "To je petak veče većine ljudi."
08:52
(Laughter)
226
517000
3000
(Smeh)
08:55
(Applause)
227
520000
3000
(Aplauz)
08:58
Which I'm glad you liked, but they did not like that at all.
228
523000
2000
Drago mi je da vam se dopalo, njima se nije nimalo svidelo.
09:00
Silence on the phone.
229
525000
2000
Tišina na telefonu.
09:02
And into the silence, I said, "I'd be happy to speak at your school,
230
527000
2000
U tišinu sam rekao, "Rado bih govorio u vašoj školi,
09:04
but just so you know, that's not a wellness week, that's a sickness week.
231
529000
3000
ali čisto da znate to nije nedelja zdravlja, to je nedelja bolesti
09:07
What you've done is you've outlined all the negative things that can happen,
232
532000
2000
Isatkli ste sve negativne stvari koje mogu da se dese,
09:09
but not talked about the positive."
233
534000
2000
ali niste govorili o pozitivnim."
09:11
The absence of disease is not health.
234
536000
2000
Nedostatak bolesti nije zdravlje.
09:13
Here's how we get to health:
235
538000
2000
Evo kako dolazimo do zdravlja:
09:15
We need to reverse the formula for happiness and success.
236
540000
3000
Moramo da promenimo formulu za sreću i uspeh.
09:18
In the last three years, I've traveled to 45 different countries,
237
543000
2000
Zadnje tri godine, proputovao sam 45 različitih zemalja,
09:20
working with schools and companies
238
545000
2000
radeći sa školama i kompanijama
09:22
in the midst of an economic downturn.
239
547000
2000
usred ekonomskog usporavanja.
09:24
And what I found is that most companies and schools
240
549000
2000
Otkrio sam da većina kompanija i škola
09:26
follow a formula for success, which is this:
241
551000
2000
primenjuje formulu za uspeh, koja glasi:
09:28
If I work harder, I'll be more successful.
242
553000
2000
Ako napornije radim, biću uspešniji.
09:30
And if I'm more successful, then I'll be happier.
243
555000
3000
A ako sam uspešniji, biću srećniji.
09:33
That undergirds most of our parenting styles, our managing styles,
244
558000
2000
To prožima naše stilove roditeljstva, i upravljanja,
09:35
the way that we motivate our behavior.
245
560000
2000
načine kojima vodimo svoje ponašanje.
09:37
And the problem is it's scientifically broken and backwards for two reasons.
246
562000
3000
To je naučno neispravno i nazadno iz dva razloga.
09:40
First, every time your brain has a success,
247
565000
3000
Prvo, svaki put kada vaš mozak ostvari uspeh,
09:43
you just changed the goalpost of what success looked like.
248
568000
2000
vi samo promenite granicu uspeha.
09:45
You got good grades, now you have to get better grades,
249
570000
2000
Imate dobre ocene, morate da imate još bolje ocene,
09:47
you got into a good school and after you get into a better school,
250
572000
2000
upisali ste se u dobru školu, upisujete se u još bolju školu,
09:49
you got a good job, now you have to get a better job,
251
574000
2000
imate dobar posao, morate imati još bolji posao
09:51
you hit your sales target, we're going to change your sales target.
252
576000
2000
ostvarili ste prodajnu kvotu, promenićemo vam prodajnu kvotu.
09:53
And if happiness is on the opposite side of success, your brain never gets there.
253
578000
3000
Ako je sreća suprotno od uspeha, vaš mozak nikada ne stiže tamo.
09:56
What we've done is we've pushed happiness
254
581000
2000
Kao društvo smo pomerili sreću
09:58
over the cognitive horizon as a society.
255
583000
3000
izvan sopstvenog spoznajnog vidika.
10:01
And that's because we think we have to be successful,
256
586000
2000
Zato što smatramo da moramo biti uspešni,
10:03
then we'll be happier.
257
588000
2000
kako bi bili srećniji.
10:05
But the real problem is our brains work in the opposite order.
258
590000
2000
Pravi problem je što naši mozgovi rade suprotnim redosledom.
10:07
If you can raise somebody's level of positivity in the present,
259
592000
3000
Ako možete povisiti nečiji nivo pozitivnosti u sadašnjosti,
10:10
then their brain experiences what we now call a happiness advantage,
260
595000
3000
tada njihov mozak oseća nešto što zovemo prednost u sreći,
10:13
which is your brain at positive
261
598000
2000
tj. vaš mozak u pozitivnom stanju
10:15
performs significantly better
262
600000
2000
je značajno učinkovitiji
10:17
than it does at negative, neutral or stressed.
263
602000
2000
nego u negativnom, neutralnom ili stresnom stanju.
10:19
Your intelligence rises, your creativity rises, your energy levels rise.
264
604000
3000
Vaša inteligencija, kreativnost, vaši nivoi energije rastu.
10:22
In fact, what we've found
265
607000
2000
Zapravo, otkrili smo
10:24
is that every single business outcome improves.
266
609000
2000
da se svaki pojedinačni poslovni rezultat unapređuje.
10:26
Your brain at positive is 31 percent more productive
267
611000
2000
Vaš mozak u pozitivnom je 31 procenat produktivniji
10:28
than your brain at negative, neutral or stressed.
268
613000
3000
nego u negativnom, neutralnom ili stresnom stanju.
10:31
You're 37 percent better at sales.
269
616000
2000
37 procenata ste bolji u prodaji.
10:33
Doctors are 19 percent faster, more accurate
270
618000
2000
Doktori su 19 procenata brži, precizniji
10:35
at coming up with the correct diagnosis
271
620000
2000
u postavljanju tačne dijagnoze
10:37
when positive instead of negative, neutral or stressed.
272
622000
2000
kada su pozitivni umesto negativni, neutralni ili u stresu.
10:39
Which means we can reverse the formula.
273
624000
2000
To znači da možemo promeniti formulu.
10:41
If we can find a way of becoming positive in the present,
274
626000
3000
Ako smo u stanju pronaći način da budemo pozitivni u sadašnjosti
10:44
then our brains work even more successfully
275
629000
2000
onda naši mozgovi rade još uspešnije
10:46
as we're able to work harder, faster and more intelligently.
276
631000
3000
jer smo sposobni da radimo napornije, brže i pametnije.
10:49
What we need to be able to do is to reverse this formula
277
634000
3000
Treba da smo sposobni da izmenimo ovu jednačinu kako bi
10:52
so we can start to see what our brains are actually capable of.
278
637000
2000
otpočeli da uviđamo koliko su zapravo naši mozgovi sposobni.
10:54
Because dopamine, which floods into your system when you're positive,
279
639000
2000
Zato što dopamin, koji preplavljuje vaš sistem kada ste
10:56
has two functions.
280
641000
2000
pozitivni, ima dve funkcije.
10:58
Not only does it make you happier,
281
643000
2000
Ne samo da vas čini srećnijima,
11:00
it turns on all of the learning centers in your brain
282
645000
2000
nego uključuje sve centre učenja vašeg mozga
11:02
allowing you to adapt to the world in a different way.
283
647000
3000
omogućavajući vam da se prilagodite svetu na drugačiji način.
11:05
We've found that there are ways that you can train your brain
284
650000
2000
Otkrili smo načine za treniranje mozga
11:07
to be able to become more positive.
285
652000
2000
da bude sposoban da postane pozitivniji.
11:09
In just a two-minute span of time done for 21 days in a row,
286
654000
3000
U svega dvominutnom vremenskom razmaku tokom 21 uzastopnog dana,
11:12
we can actually rewire your brain,
287
657000
2000
možemo reprogramirati vaš mozak
11:14
allowing your brain to actually work
288
659000
2000
omogućavajući mu da radi
11:16
more optimistically and more successfully.
289
661000
2000
optimističnije i uspešnije.
11:18
We've done these things in research now
290
663000
2000
To smo uradili u istraživanjima
11:20
in every single company that I've worked with,
291
665000
2000
u svakoj kompaniji sa kojom sam sarađivao,
11:22
getting them to write down three new things that they're grateful for
292
667000
2000
dali smo im da 21 dan za redom zapisuju
11:24
for 21 days in a row, three new things each day.
293
669000
2000
tri nove stvari za koje su zahvalni.
11:26
And at the end of that,
294
671000
2000
I na kraju,
11:28
their brain starts to retain a pattern
295
673000
2000
njihov mozak počinje da usvaja šablon
11:30
of scanning the world, not for the negative, but for the positive first.
296
675000
3000
skeniranja sveta, ne za negativne, već prvo za pozitivne stvari.
11:33
Journaling about one positive experience you've had over the past 24 hours
297
678000
2000
Pisanjem o pozitivnom iskustvu tokom zadnjih 24 sata
11:35
allows your brain to relive it.
298
680000
2000
omogućavate vašem mozgu da ga ponovo proživi.
11:37
Exercise teaches your brain that your behavior matters.
299
682000
3000
Vežba uči vaš mozak važnosti vašeg ponašanja.
11:40
We find that meditation allows your brain
300
685000
2000
Meditacija omogućava vašem mozgu
11:42
to get over the cultural ADHD that we've been creating
301
687000
3000
da preboli društveni deficit pažnje koji već dugo stvaramo
11:45
by trying to do multiple tasks at once
302
690000
2000
obavljanjem više poslova odjednom i
11:47
and allows our brains to focus on the task at hand.
303
692000
3000
omogućava našim mozgovima da se skoncentrišu na tekući problem.
11:50
And finally, random acts of kindness are conscious acts of kindness.
304
695000
2000
Nasumični činovi dobrote su svesni činovi dobrote.
11:52
We get people, when they open up their inbox,
305
697000
2000
Govorimo ljudima da, kada otvore svoj sandučić
11:54
to write one positive email
306
699000
2000
napišu jedan pozitivan imejl
11:56
praising or thanking somebody in their social support network.
307
701000
2000
hvaleći nekoga ili se zahvaljujući nekome.
11:58
And by doing these activities
308
703000
2000
Čineći takve aktivnosti
12:00
and by training your brain just like we train our bodies,
309
705000
2000
i vežbajući vaš mozak poput svojih tela,
12:02
what we've found is we can reverse the formula for happiness and success,
310
707000
3000
otkrili smo da možemo promeniti jednačinu za sreću i uspeh,
12:05
and in doing so, not only create ripples of positivity,
311
710000
3000
i usput, ne samo stvoriti male talase pozitivnosti,
12:08
but create a real revolution.
312
713000
2000
već izazvati pravu revoluciju.
12:10
Thank you very much.
313
715000
2000
Mnogo vam hvala.
12:12
(Applause)
