Pitao sam se: Da li bi djeca latinoameričkog porijekla
02:42
reactreagovati the sameisto way as the AmericanAmerički kidsdeca?
51
144000
3000
reagirala na isti način kao i američka djeca?
02:45
So I wentotišao to ColombiaKolumbija. And I reproducedreproducirati the experimenteksperiment.
52
147000
3000
Zato sam otišao u univerzitet Kolumbiju. I ponovio sam eksperiment.
02:48
And it was very funnysmešno. I used fourčetiri, fivepet and sixšest yearsgodine oldstari kidsdeca.
53
150000
3000
I to je bilo veoma smiješno. Uzeo sam četverogodišnjake, petogodišnjake i šestogodišnjake.
02:51
And let me showshow you what happeneddogodilo se.
54
153000
3000
I dozvolite mi da vam pokažem šta se dogodilo.
03:09
(Spanishšpanjolski) (LaughterSmijeh)

4000
(Smijeh)
04:50
So what happeneddogodilo se in ColombiaKolumbija?
56
272000
2000
I šta se dogodilo u Kolumbiji?
04:52
HispanicLatino kidsdeca, two out of threetri atejela the marshmallowbijeli sljez;
57
274000
3000
Latinoamerička djeca, dvoje od troje djece, je pojeo kolačiće.
04:55
one out of threetri did not.
58
277000
2000
Jedno od troje nije.
04:57
This little girldevojka was interestingzanimljivo;
59
279000
2000
Ova mala djevojčica je interesantna.
04:59
she atejela the insideunutra of the marshmallowbijeli sljez.
60
281000
2000
Ona je pojela unutrašnjost kolačića.
05:01
(LaughterSmijeh)
61
283000
1000
(Smijeh)
05:02
In other wordsriječi, she wanted us to think that she had not eatenjede it, so she would get two.
62
284000
4000
Drugim riječima, ona je željela da pomislimo da ga nije pojela, kako bi dobila dva kolačića.
05:06
But she atejela it.
63
288000
2000
Ali, ona ga je ipak pojela.
05:08
So we know she'llona će be successfuluspješno. But we have to watch her.
64
290000
3000
Tako da znamo da će ona biti uspješna. Ali je moramo posmatrati.
05:11
(LaughterSmijeh)
65
293000
1000
(Smijeh)
05:12
She should not go into bankingbankarstvo, for exampleprimer,
66
294000
3000
Ona se ne bi trebala baviti bankarstvom, naprimjer,
05:15
or work at a cashgotovina registerregistrujte se.
67
297000
2000
ili raditi kao blagajnica.
05:17
But she will be successfuluspješno.
68
299000
2000
Ali će biti uspješna.
05:19
And this appliesvaži for everything. Even in salesprodaja.
69
301000
2000
I ovo se primjenjuje svugdje. Čak i u trgovini.
05:21
The salesprodaja personosoba that --
70
303000
4000
Trgovac kojem --
05:25
the customerkupac sayskaže, "I want that." And the personosoba sayskaže, "Okay, here you are."
71
307000
2000
klijent kaže, "Želim to." a ta osoba odgovara, "U redu, izvolite."
05:27
That personosoba atejela the marshmallowbijeli sljez.
72
309000
2000
Ta osoba je pojela kolačić.
05:29
If the salesprodaja personosoba sayskaže, "Wait a secondsekunda.
73
311000
2000
Ako prodavač kaže,"Sačekajte malo.
05:31
Let me askpitajte you a fewnekoliko questionspitanja to see if this is a good choiceizbor."
74
313000
3000
Dozvolite mi da vam postavim nekoliko pitanja da vidimo da li je ovo dobar izbor."
05:34
Then you sellprodati a lot more.
75
316000
1000
Tada ćete prodati više.
05:35
So this has applicationsaplikacije in all walksšetnje of life.
76
317000
5000
Prema tome, ovo se može primjeniti u svim sferama života.
05:40
I endkraj with -- the KoreansKorejci did this.
77
322000
3000
Završiću sa – Korejanci su ovo također uradili.
05:43
You know what? This is so good
78
325000
2000

05:50
They are teachingučenje these kidsdeca exactlyupravo this principleprincip.
81
332000
2000
Oni podučavaju ovu djecu upravo ovom principu.
05:52
And we need to learnuči that principleprincip here in the StatesDržava,
82
334000
2000
I mi trebamo naučiti taj princip ovdje u SAD-u.
05:54
because we have a bigveliki debtdug.
83
336000
2000
Jer imamo veliki dug.
05:56
We are eatingjesti more marshmallowspuslice than we are producingproizvodnju.
