Postoji 168 sati u svakom tjednu. Kako ćemo naći vremena za ono što je najvažnije? Stručnjakinja upravljanja vremenom, Laura Vanderkam, proučava kako zaposleni ljudi troše svoje živote, i ona je otkrila da mnogi od nas drastično precijenjuju svoje obveze svaki tjedan, a podcjenjuju vrijeme koje imamo za sebe. Ona nudi nekoliko praktičnih strategija koje će nam pomoći pronaći više vremena za ono što je važno za nas, tako da možemo "graditi živote kakve želimo u vremenu koje imamo."

Kada ljudi čuju da pišem
knjige o organizaciji vremena,
knjige o organizaciji vremena,
00:16
they assume two things.
1
4588
1675
pretpostavljaju dvije stvari.
00:19
One is that I'm always on time,
2
7564
2984
Pomisle da nikad ne kasnim,
00:23
and I'm not.
3
11747
1237
a zapravo kasnim.
00:25
I have four small children,
4
13525
1345
Imam četvero male djece,
00:26
and I would like to blame them
for my occasional tardiness,
for my occasional tardiness,
5
14894
2816
i voljela bih okriviti njih
za svoja povremena kašnjenja,
za svoja povremena kašnjenja,
00:29
but sometimes it's just not their fault.
6
17734
2108
no ponekad to zaista nije njihova krivica.
00:32
I was once late to my own speech
on time management.

Jednom sam zakasnila na vlastiti
govor o organizaciji vremena.

00:36
We all had to just take a moment
together and savor that irony.

9

Svi smo na trenutak uživali u toj ironiji.
00:40
The second thing they assume
is that I have lots of tips and tricks

Druga stvar koju pretpostave
jest da imam puno savjeta i trikova

for saving bits of time here and there.

kako uštedjeti nešto vremena tu i tamo.
00:46
Sometimes I'll hear from magazines
that are doing a story along these lines,

12
34132
3714
Ponekad čujem od raznih časopisa da
pišu članak o ovoj temi,

generally on how to help their readers
find an extra hour in the day.

o tome kako pomoći čitateljima
da pronađu jedan dodatni sat dnevno.
da pronađu jedan dodatni sat dnevno.
00:53
And the idea is that we'll shave
bits of time off everyday activities,
bits of time off everyday activities,
14
41221
3286
Bit je u tome da skratimo
vrijeme za svakodnevne aktivnosti,
vrijeme za svakodnevne aktivnosti,
00:56
add it up,
15
44531
1177
pribrojimo to vrijeme,
00:57
and we'll have time for the good stuff.
16
45732
2174
i naći ćemo vremena za dobre stvari.
00:59
I question the entire premise
of this piece, but I'm always interested

Uvijek preispitujem takvu ideju,
ali mi je uvijek zanimljivo

prije nego me pozovu.

01:06
Some of my favorites:
19
54695
1152
Najdraže ideje su mi:
01:07
doing errands where you only
have to make right-hand turns --

20
55871
2906
ići u nabavku samo ondje
gdje moraš skrenuti desno --

Biti izuzetno pametan pri
korištenju mikrovalne:
korištenju mikrovalne:
01:14
it says three to three-and-a-half
minutes on the package,
minutes on the package,
23
62023
2723
ako piše tri do tri i pol minute
na pakiranju,
na pakiranju,
01:16
we're totally getting in on
the bottom side of that.
the bottom side of that.
24
64770
2436
definitivno ćemo ući malo dublje u to.
01:19
And my personal favorite,
which makes sense on some level,
which makes sense on some level,
25
67230
2739
I moj osobni favorit,
za koji ima smisla na nekoj razini,
za koji ima smisla na nekoj razini,
01:21
is to DVR your favorite shows so you can
fast-forward through the commercials.
fast-forward through the commercials.
26
69993
3752
jest snimiti vaše najdraže emisije
kako bi mogli premotati reklame.
kako bi mogli premotati reklame.
01:25
That way, you save
eight minutes every half hour,
eight minutes every half hour,
27
73769
2292
Tako uštedite osam
minuta svakih pola sata,
minuta svakih pola sata,
01:28
so in the course of two hours
of watching TV,
of watching TV,
28
76085
2097
tako da tijekom dva sata
gledanja televizije,
gledanja televizije,
01:30
you find 32 minutes to exercise.
29
78206
1543
imate trideset dvije minute za vježbanje.
01:31
(Laughter)
30
79773
1016
(Smijeh)
01:32
Which is true.
31
80813
1285
To je istina.
01:34
You know another way to find
32 minutes to exercise?
32 minutes to exercise?
32
82587
2621
Znate kako još pronaći trideset
dvije minute za vježbu?
dvije minute za vježbu?
01:37
Don't watch two hours of TV a day, right?
33
85629
2332
Ne gledajte televiziju
dva sata dnevno, točno?
dva sata dnevno, točno?
01:39
(Laughter)
34
87985
1016
(Smijeh)
01:41
Anyway, the idea is we'll save bits
of time here and there, add it up,
of time here and there, add it up,
35
89025
3474
Dakle, bit je uštedjeti nešto vremena
kad stignemo, pribrojimo to vrijeme,
kad stignemo, pribrojimo to vrijeme,
01:44
we will finally get
to everything we want to do.
to everything we want to do.
36
92523
2284
i napokon ćemo imate vremena
za sve što poželimo.
za sve što poželimo.
01:46
But after studying how successful
people spend their time
people spend their time
37
94831
2912
Nakon što sam proučavala kako
uspješni ljudi troše svoje vrijeme,
uspješni ljudi troše svoje vrijeme,
01:49
and looking at their
schedules hour by hour,
schedules hour by hour,
38
97767
2637
i gledajući njihove rasporede
za svakih sat vremena,
za svakih sat vremena,
01:52
I think this idea
has it completely backward.
has it completely backward.
39
100428
3296
mislim da je ova ideja nešto
sasvim suprotno.
sasvim suprotno.
01:56
We don't build the lives
we want by saving time.
we want by saving time.
40
104305
3642
Ne gradimo živote kakve želimo
štedeći vrijeme.
štedeći vrijeme.
02:00
We build the lives we want,
41
108566
1560
Gradimo živote kakve želimo
02:02
and then time saves itself.
42
110636
2967
i vrijeme štedi samo sebe.
02:07
Here's what I mean.
43
115194
1151
Malo ću to pojasniti.
02:08
I recently did a time diary project
44
116369
1694
Radila sam na dnevniku vremena
02:10
looking at 1,001 days in the lives
of extremely busy women.
of extremely busy women.
45
118087
4204
gledajući 1001 dan u životima
previše zaposlenih žena.
previše zaposlenih žena.
02:14
They had demanding jobs,
sometimes their own businesses,
sometimes their own businesses,
46
122315
2644
Radile su zahtjevne poslove,
ponekad u svojim tvrtkama,
ponekad u svojim tvrtkama,
02:16
kids to care for,
maybe parents to care for,
maybe parents to care for,
47
124983
2135
brinule su se o djeci,
možda i o roditeljima,
možda i o roditeljima,
02:19
community commitments --
48
127142
1330
obveze u zajednici,
02:20
busy, busy people.
49
128496
1813
vrlo zaposleni ljudi.
02:22
I had them keep track
of their time for a week
of their time for a week
50
130799
2207
Tjedan su dana vodili
evidenciju o svome vremenu,
evidenciju o svome vremenu,
02:25
so I could add up how much
they worked and slept,
they worked and slept,
51
133030
2313
da bih mogla zbrojiti koliko
su radile i spavale,
su radile i spavale,
02:27
and I interviewed them
about their strategies, for my book.
about their strategies, for my book.
52
135367
2809
te sam ih intervjuirala o
strategijama za svoju knjigu.
strategijama za svoju knjigu.
02:30
One of the women whose time log I studied
53
138200
1989
Jedna od žena čiji sam raspored pratila,
02:32
goes out on a Wednesday night
for something.
for something.
54
140213
2063
izašla je jedne srijede uvečer po nešto.
02:34
She comes home to find
that her water heater has broken,
that her water heater has broken,
55
142300
2629
Dok se vratila kući,
pokidao se bojler
pokidao se bojler
02:36
and there is now water
all over her basement.
all over her basement.
56
144953
2636
i poplavio joj podrum.
02:40
If you've ever had anything
like this happen to you,
like this happen to you,
57
148380
2454
Ako vam se ikad
ovakvo što dogodilo,
ovakvo što dogodilo,
02:42
you know it is a hugely damaging,
frightening, sopping mess.
frightening, sopping mess.
58
150858
2880
tada znate da je to štetan,
zastrašujući i mokar nered.
zastrašujući i mokar nered.
02:45
So she's dealing with the immediate
aftermath that night,
aftermath that night,
59
153762
2710
Ona se tu večer suočava
s neposrednim posljedicama,
s neposrednim posljedicama,
02:48
next day she's got plumbers coming in,
60
156496
1877
sljedeći dan dolaze vodoinstalateri,
02:50
day after that, professional cleaning
crew dealing with the ruined carpet.
crew dealing with the ruined carpet.
61
158397
3500
dan poslije, ekipa za čišćenje
dolazi počistiti uništeni sag.
dolazi počistiti uništeni sag.
02:53
All this is being recorded
on her time log.
on her time log.
62
161921
2066
Sve je to zapisala u raspored.
02:56
Winds up taking seven hours of her week.
63
164011
2300
Izgubila je sedam sati od tjedna.
02:59
Seven hours.
64
167191
1282
Sedam sati.
03:01
That's like finding
an extra hour in the day.
an extra hour in the day.
65
169179
2802
Kao da je pronašla
jedan dodatni sat dnevno.
jedan dodatni sat dnevno.
03:04
But I'm sure if you had asked her
at the start of the week,
at the start of the week,
66
172834
2794
Ali sigurna sam kada bi je
na početku tjedna pitali,
na početku tjedna pitali,
03:07
"Could you find seven hours
to train for a triathlon?"
to train for a triathlon?"
67
175652
3218
"Možeš li izdvojiti sedam sati
za trening za triatlon?"
za trening za triatlon?"
03:11
"Could you find seven hours
to mentor seven worthy people?"
to mentor seven worthy people?"
68
179893
3805
"Možeš li izdvojiti sedam sati
da podučavaš sedam vrijednih ljudi?"
da podučavaš sedam vrijednih ljudi?"
03:15
I'm sure she would've said
what most of us would've said,
what most of us would've said,
69
183722
2691
Sigurna sam da bi rekla ono
što bi rekli i mi ostali,
što bi rekli i mi ostali,
03:18
which is, "No -- can't you see
how busy I am?"
how busy I am?"
70
186437
4444
a to je: "Ne, ne vidiš li
koliko sam zaposlena?"
koliko sam zaposlena?"
03:23
Yet when she had to find seven hours
71
191521
1797
Ali kada je morala pronaći sedam sati
03:25
because there is water
all over her basement,
all over her basement,
72
193342
2799
jer joj je podrum bio napunjen vodom,
03:28
she found seven hours.
73
196165
2510
pronašla je sedam sati.
03:31
And what this shows us
is that time is highly elastic.
is that time is highly elastic.
74
199055
4151
I to nam pokazuje da je
vrijeme vrlo rastezljivo.
vrijeme vrlo rastezljivo.
03:35
We cannot make more time,
75
203594
2043
Ne možemo stvoriti više vremena,
03:37
but time will stretch to accommodate
what we choose to put into it.
what we choose to put into it.
76
205661
4179
ali se vrijeme rasteže da se prilagodi
onome što odlučimo staviti u njega.
onome što odlučimo staviti u njega.
03:42
And so the key to time management
77
210366
2567
Zato je ključno u organizaciji vremena
03:45
is treating our priorities
78
213541
2235
odnositi se prema svojim prioritetima
03:47
as the equivalent
of that broken water heater.
of that broken water heater.
79
215800
3047
jednako kao prema
pokidanom bojleru.
pokidanom bojleru.
03:52
To get at this,
80
220162
1150
Da bih objasnila bit,
03:53
I like to use language from one
of the busiest people I ever interviewed.
of the busiest people I ever interviewed.
81
221336
3445
volim se služiti jezikom najzasposlenije
osobe koju sam intervjuirala.
osobe koju sam intervjuirala.
03:56
By busy, I mean she was running
a small business
a small business
82
224805
2288
Vodila je malu tvrtku
03:59
with 12 people on the payroll,
83
227117
1469
s 12 ljudi na platnoj listi
04:00
she had six children in her spare time.
84
228610
2023
i šestero djece u slobodnom vremenu.
04:02
I was getting in touch with her
to set up an interview
to set up an interview
85
230657
2618
Bile smo u kontaktu da
dogovorimo intervju
dogovorimo intervju
04:05
on how she "had it all" -- that phrase.
86
233299
2496
o tome kako "ima sve što želi."
04:07
I remember it was a Thursday morning,
87
235819
1809
Sjećam se da je bio četvrtak ujutro,
04:09
and she was not available
to speak with me.
to speak with me.
88
237652
2007
i nije bila slobodna za razgovor.
04:11
Of course, right?
89
239683
1156
Naravno, zar ne?
04:12
But the reason she was
unavailable to speak with me
unavailable to speak with me
90
240863
2419
Razlog zbog kojeg je bila
nedostupna za razgovor
nedostupna za razgovor
04:15
is that she was out for a hike,
91
243306
1940
je zbog toga što je izašla pješačiti,
04:17
because it was a beautiful spring morning,
92
245270
2038
jer je bilo prekrasno proljetno jutro,
04:19
and she wanted to go for a hike.
93
247332
1563
i htjela je ići pješačiti.
04:20
So of course this makes me
even more intrigued,
even more intrigued,
94
248919
2337
Naravno da me to
još više zaintrigiralo,
još više zaintrigiralo,
04:23
and when I finally do catch up with her,
she explains it like this.
she explains it like this.
95
251280
3176
i kada sam je napokon uhvatila,
objasnila mi je.
objasnila mi je.
04:26
She says, "Listen Laura, everything I do,
96
254480
2267
Rekla je: "Slušaj Laura, sve što radim,
04:29
every minute I spend, is my choice."
97
257592
3613
svaka minuta koju
potrošim, moj je izbor."
potrošim, moj je izbor."
04:33
And rather than say,
98
261830
1151
I umjesto da je rekla:
04:35
"I don't have time to do x, y or z,"
99
263005
2429
"Nemam vremena za ovo ili ono,"
04:37
she'd say, "I don't do x, y or z
because it's not a priority."
because it's not a priority."
100
265893
5114
rekla bi, "ne radim ovo ili ono
jer mi to nije prioritet."
jer mi to nije prioritet."
04:43
"I don't have time," often means
"It's not a priority."
"It's not a priority."
101
271709
4368
"Nemam vremena" često znači
"nije mi prioritet".
"nije mi prioritet".
04:49
If you think about it,
that's really more accurate language.
that's really more accurate language.
102
277075
2888
Ako razmislite o tome,
to je i točnije rečeno.
to je i točnije rečeno.
04:51
I could tell you I don't have time
to dust my blinds,
to dust my blinds,
103
279987
2564
Mogla bih vam reći da nemam
vremena očistiti rolete,
vremena očistiti rolete,
04:54
but that's not true.
104
282575
1169
ali to nije istina.
04:55
If you offered to pay me $100,000
to dust my blinds,
to dust my blinds,
105
283768
2440
Ako bi mi ponudili
100.000$ za čišćenje roleta,
100.000$ za čišćenje roleta,
04:58
I would get to it pretty quickly.
106
286232
1600
ubrzo bih se prihvatila posla.
04:59
(Laughter)
107
287856
1016
(Smijeh)
05:00
Since that is not going to happen,
108
288896
1635
Budući da se to neće dogoditi,
05:02
I can acknowledge this is not
a matter of lacking time;
a matter of lacking time;
109
290555
2604
mogu priznati izgovor
nije manjak vremena,
nije manjak vremena,
05:05
it's that I don't want to do it.
110
293183
1601
već volja da to napravim.
05:06
Using this language reminds us
that time is a choice.
that time is a choice.
111
294808
3386
Korištenje ovih riječi podsjeća
nas da je vrijeme izbor.
nas da je vrijeme izbor.
05:10
And granted,
112
298218
1173
I zasigurno,
05:11
there may be horrible consequences
for making different choices,
for making different choices,
113
299415
3032
mogu postojati strašne posljedice
za različite odluke,
za različite odluke,
05:14
I will give you that.
114
302471
1206
to ću vam priznati.
05:15
But we are smart people,
115
303701
1622
Ali mi smo pametni ljudi,
05:17
and certainly over the long run,
116
305347
1858
i zasigurno gledajući na duže staze,
05:19
we have the power to fill our lives
117
307229
2000
imamo moć ispuniti svoje živote
05:21
with the things that deserve to be there.
118
309253
2676
stvarima koje zaslužuju biti u njemu.
05:25
So how do we do that?
119
313204
1288
Kako to postići?
05:27
How do we treat our priorities
120
315127
1432
Kako se odnositi prema
05:28
as the equivalent
of that broken water heater?
of that broken water heater?
121
316583
2331
prioritetima jednako kao
prema pokidanom bojleru?
prema pokidanom bojleru?
05:31
Well, first we need
to figure out what they are.
to figure out what they are.
122
319531
2319
Najprije moramo razmisliti
što su nam prioriteti.
što su nam prioriteti.
05:33
I want to give you two strategies
for thinking about this.
for thinking about this.
123
321874
2754
Želim vam pokazati dvije strategije
za razmišljanje.
za razmišljanje.
05:36
The first, on the professional side:
124
324652
1758
Prva je s profesionalne strane:
05:38
I'm sure many people
coming up to the end of the year
coming up to the end of the year
125
326434
2511
Sigurna sam da mnogi ljudi
kada se približava kraj godine
kada se približava kraj godine
05:40
are giving or getting
annual performance reviews.
annual performance reviews.
126
328969
2323
naprave ili dobiju godišnju
procjenu radnog učinka.
procjenu radnog učinka.
05:43
You look back over
your successes over the year,
your successes over the year,
127
331316
2265
Tada pregledate uspjehe
u protekloj godini,
u protekloj godini,
05:45
your "opportunities for growth."
128
333605
2045
svoj "prostor za napredak".
05:47
And this serves its purpose,
129
335674
2023
I to ima svoju svrhu,
05:50
but I find it's more effective
to do this looking forward.
to do this looking forward.
130
338221
2930
ali smatram da je učinkovitije
raditi to s pogledom u budućnost.
raditi to s pogledom u budućnost.
05:53
So I want you to pretend
it's the end of next year.
it's the end of next year.
131
341175
2594
Želim da se pretvarate
da je sada kraj sljedeće godine.
da je sada kraj sljedeće godine.
05:56
You're giving yourself
a performance review,
a performance review,
132
344326
2361
Pravite si godišnju procjenu
radnog učinka,
radnog učinka,
05:58
and it has been an absolutely
amazing year for you professionally.
amazing year for you professionally.
133
346711
4516
i prošla je godina za vas bila
vrlo uspješna poslovna godina.
vrlo uspješna poslovna godina.
06:04
What three to five things did you do
that made it so amazing?
that made it so amazing?
134
352034
5787
Koje ste tri do pet stvari napravili
a koje su učinili tu godinu uspješnom?
a koje su učinili tu godinu uspješnom?
06:10
So you can write next
year's performance review now.
year's performance review now.
135
358734
3800
Sada možete napisati svoju
procjenu učinka rada za sljedeću godinu.
procjenu učinka rada za sljedeću godinu.
06:14
And you can do this
for your personal life, too.
for your personal life, too.
136
362558
2247
A to možete učiniti i
za svoj osobni život.
za svoj osobni život.
06:16
I'm sure many of you,
like me, come December,
like me, come December,
137
364829
2629
Sigurna sam da mnogi od vas,
poput mene, u prosincu,
poput mene, u prosincu,
06:19
get cards that contain these folded up
sheets of colored paper,
sheets of colored paper,
138
367482
3546
dobiju čestitke u kojima se
nalaze šareni papiri
nalaze šareni papiri
06:23
on which is written what is known
as the family holiday letter.
as the family holiday letter.
139
371491
4830
na kojima su ispisana
praznična obiteljska pisma.
praznična obiteljska pisma.
06:28
(Laughter)
140
376345
1638
(Smijeh)
06:30
Bit of a wretched genre
of literature, really,
of literature, really,
141
378007
2631
Pomalo pokvaren stil
pisanja, ako razmislite,
pisanja, ako razmislite,
06:32
going on about how amazing
everyone in the household is,
everyone in the household is,
142
380662
3284
o tome kako su svi
ukućani odlično,
ukućani odlično,
06:35
or even more scintillating,
143
383970
1287
ili čak još sjajnije,
06:37
how busy everyone in the household is.
144
385281
2175
kako su svi ukućani zaposleni.
06:39
But these letters serve a purpose,
145
387815
1649
Ali ovakva pisma imaju svrhu,
06:41
which is that they tell
your friends and family
your friends and family
146
389488
2207
a to je da pokažu vašim
prijateljima i obitelji
prijateljima i obitelji
06:43
what you did in your personal life
that mattered to you over the year.
that mattered to you over the year.
147
391719
3325
da ste radili nešto vama značajno
u osobnom životu tijekom godine.
u osobnom životu tijekom godine.
06:47
So this year's kind of done,
148
395068
1384
Budući da je ova godina završila,
06:48
but I want you to pretend
it's the end of next year,
it's the end of next year,
149
396476
2450
stoga želim da se pretvarate
da je kraj sljedeće godine,
da je kraj sljedeće godine,
06:50
and it has been an absolutely amazing year
150
398950
2754
i bila je to zaista savršena godina
06:54
for you and the people you care about.
151
402172
2653
za vas i ljude koje volite.
06:57
What three to five things did you do
that made it so amazing?
that made it so amazing?
152
405391
4703
Koje ste tri do pet stvari učinili
koje su je učinile toliko uspješnom?
koje su je učinile toliko uspješnom?
07:02
So you can write next
year's family holiday letter now.
year's family holiday letter now.
153
410839
4141
Sada možete napisati svoje
obiteljsko pismo za sljedeću godinu.
obiteljsko pismo za sljedeću godinu.
07:07
Don't send it.
154
415789
1193
Nemojte ga poslati.
07:09
(Laughter)
155
417006
1016
(Smijeh)
07:10
Please, don't send it.
156
418046
2638
Molim vas, ne šaljite ga.
07:13
But you can write it.
157
421049
1390
Ali možete ga napisati.
07:14
And now, between the performance
review and the family holiday letter,
review and the family holiday letter,
158
422463
3714
Sad, između godišnje procjene radnog
učinka i obiteljskog pisma,
učinka i obiteljskog pisma,
07:18
we have a list of six to ten goals
we can work on in the next year.
we can work on in the next year.
159
426201
3237
imamo listu od šest do deset ciljeva
na kojima možemo raditi nagodinu.
na kojima možemo raditi nagodinu.
07:21
And now we need to break
these down into doable steps.
these down into doable steps.
160
429462
2799
Sada ih moramo raščlaniti
na izvedive korake.
na izvedive korake.
07:24
So maybe you want
to write a family history.
to write a family history.
161
432285
2208
Recimo da želite napisati
obiteljsku povijest.
obiteljsku povijest.
07:26
First, you can read
some other family histories,
some other family histories,
162
434517
2253
Najprije možete pročitati
druge obiteljske povijesti,
druge obiteljske povijesti,
07:28
get a sense for the style.
163
436794
1262
kako bi vidjeli stil pisanja.
07:30
Then maybe think about the questions
you want to ask your relatives,
you want to ask your relatives,
164
438080
3207
Zatim razmisliti o pitanjima
koje biste htjeli pitali rodbinu,
koje biste htjeli pitali rodbinu,
07:33
set up appointments to interview them.
165
441311
1849
dogovoriti sastanke za razgovore.
07:35
Or maybe you want to run a 5K.
166
443184
1461
Ili možda želite trčati 5 kilometara.
07:36
So you need to find a race and sign up,
figure out a training plan,
figure out a training plan,
167
444669
3161
Dakle, potrebno je pronaći utrku i
prijaviti se, napraviti plan treninga,
prijaviti se, napraviti plan treninga,
07:39
and dig those shoes
out of the back of the closet.
out of the back of the closet.
168
447854
2373
i iskopati te tenisice iz kraja ormara.
07:42
And then -- this is key --
169
450251
1942
A onda -- to je ključno --
07:44
we treat our priorities as the equivalent
of that broken water heater,
of that broken water heater,
170
452217
4095
odnosimo se prema našim prioritetima,
kao što bi se prema pokvarenom bojleru,
kao što bi se prema pokvarenom bojleru,
07:48
by putting them into our schedules first.
171
456336
2999
stavljajući ih u našim rasporedima
na prvo mjesto.
na prvo mjesto.
07:51
We do this by thinking through our weeks
before we are in them.
before we are in them.
172
459879
4760
To činimo tako da razmišljamo o
našim tjednima prije nego dođu.
našim tjednima prije nego dođu.
07:56
I find a really good time to do this
is Friday afternoons.
is Friday afternoons.
173
464663
3684
Otkrila sam kako je to dobro raditi
u petak popodne.
u petak popodne.
08:00
Friday afternoon is what
an economist might call
an economist might call
174
468885
2548
Petak poslijepodne je ono
što bi ekonomisti mogli nazvati
što bi ekonomisti mogli nazvati
08:03
a "low opportunity cost" time.
175
471457
2537
vrijeme "niskog oportunitetnog troška."
08:06
Most of us are not sitting there
on Friday afternoons saying,
on Friday afternoons saying,
176
474764
2900
Većina nas ne sjedi tamo
petkom popodne govoreći:
petkom popodne govoreći:
08:09
"I am excited to make progress
177
477688
1879
"Uzbuđen sam što ću napredovati
08:11
toward my personal
and professional priorities
and professional priorities
178
479591
2296
ka mojim osobnim i profesionalnim
prioritetima
prioritetima
08:13
right now."
179
481911
1154
sada."
08:15
(Laughter)
180
483089
1016
(Smijeh)
08:16
But we are willing to think
about what those should be.
about what those should be.
181
484129
2617
Ali, spremni smo razmišljati
o tome što oni trebaju biti.
o tome što oni trebaju biti.
08:18
So take a little bit
of time Friday afternoon,
of time Friday afternoon,
182
486770
2205
Dakle, odvojite malo vremena petkom
popodne,
popodne,
08:20
make yourself a three-category priority
list: career, relationships, self.
list: career, relationships, self.
183
488999
6190
napravite svoju listu prioriteta sa tri
kategorije: karijera, odnosi, ja.
kategorije: karijera, odnosi, ja.
08:28
Making a three-category list reminds us
184
496382
3198
Izrada liste sa tri kategorija nas
podsjeća
podsjeća
08:31
that there should be something
in all three categories.
in all three categories.
185
499604
3490
kako bi trebalo biti nešto u svakoj od
te tri kategorije.
te tri kategorije.
08:35
Career, we think about;
186
503118
1256
Karijera, o njoj razmišljamo;
08:36
relationships, self --
187
504398
1507
odnosi, ja --
08:37
not so much.
188
505929
1319
i ne baš toliko.
08:39
But anyway, just a short list,
189
507272
1898
Svejedno, samo kratka lista,
08:41
two to three items in each.
190
509194
1429
dvije do tri stvari u svakoj od njih.
08:43
Then look out over the whole
of the next week,
of the next week,
191
511013
2381
I onda promatrajte cijeli listu
kroz cijeli idući tjedan,
kroz cijeli idući tjedan,
08:45
and see where you can plan them in.
192
513418
1715
i vidite gdje ih možete uplanirati.
08:48
Where you plan them in is up to you.
193
516171
2010
Gdje ih isplanirate ovisi potpuno
o vama.
o vama.
08:50
I know this is going to be more
complicated for some people than others.
complicated for some people than others.
194
518205
3462
Znam da će ovo biti kompliciranije
za neke ljude u odnosu na druge.
za neke ljude u odnosu na druge.
08:53
I mean, some people's lives
are just harder than others.
are just harder than others.
195
521691
3522
Mislim, životi nekih ljudi su
teži od drugih.
teži od drugih.
08:57
It is not going to be easy
to find time to take that poetry class
to find time to take that poetry class
196
525674
3269
Neće se lako naći vremena da se pohađa
taj razred poezije
taj razred poezije
09:00
if you are caring for multiple
children on your own.
children on your own.
197
528967
2730
ako sami brinete o nekoliko djece.
09:04
I get that.
198
532058
1171
Shvaćam.
09:05
And I don't want to minimize
anyone's struggle.
anyone's struggle.
199
533253
2207
I ne želim umanjiti ničiju borbu.
09:07
But I do think that the numbers
I am about to tell you are empowering.
I am about to tell you are empowering.
200
535484
4526
Ali mislim kako su brojke koje ću
spomenuti ohrabrujuće.
spomenuti ohrabrujuće.
09:12
There are 168 hours in a week.
201
540906
4007
Imamo 168 sati u tjednu.
09:17
Twenty-four times seven is 168 hours.
202
545962
4701
dvadeset četiri put sedam je 168 sati.
09:23
That is a lot of time.
203
551295
2733
To je puno vremena.
09:26
If you are working a full-time
job, so 40 hours a week,
job, so 40 hours a week,
204
554627
3191
Ako radite posao na puno radno vrijeme,
dakle 40 sati na tjedan,
dakle 40 sati na tjedan,
09:29
sleeping eight hours a night,
so 56 hours a week --
so 56 hours a week --
205
557842
3092
spavati osam sati na noć,
dakle 56 sati na tjedan --
dakle 56 sati na tjedan --
09:32
that leaves 72 hours for other things.
206
560958
2580
to vam ostavlja 72 sata za druge stvari.
09:36
That is a lot of time.
207
564622
1907
To je puno vremena.
09:38
You say you're working 50 hours a week,
208
566956
1885
Recimo da radite 50 sati tjedno,
09:40
maybe a main job and a side hustle.
209
568865
1946
možda glavni posao i nešto sa strane.
09:42
Well, that leaves 62 hours
for other things.
for other things.
210
570835
2470
Pa, to vam ostavlja 62 sata za
druge stvari.
druge stvari.
09:45
You say you're working 60 hours.
211
573329
1900
Recimo da radite 60 sati.
09:47
Well, that leaves 52 hours
for other things.
for other things.
212
575253
2428
Pa, to vam ostavlja 52 sata za druge
stvari.
stvari.
09:49
You say you're working more than 60 hours.
213
577705
2042
Kažete da radite više od 60 sati tjedno.
09:51
Well, are you sure?
214
579771
1557
Pa, jeste li sigurni?
09:53
(Laughter)
215
581352
1734
(Smijeh)
09:55
There was once a study comparing
people's estimated work weeks
people's estimated work weeks
216
583110
2906
Jednom su radili istraživanje koje je
uspoređivalo procijenjeni radni tjedan
uspoređivalo procijenjeni radni tjedan
09:58
with time diaries.
217
586040
1395
sa dnevnikom vremena ljudi.
09:59
They found that people claiming
75-plus-hour work weeks
75-plus-hour work weeks
218
587459
2676
Otkrili su da ljudi koji tvrde
da imaju 75 plus-satni radni tjedan
da imaju 75 plus-satni radni tjedan
10:02
were off by about 25 hours.
219
590159
2104
su promašili za nekih 25 sati.
10:04
(Laughter)
220
592287
1694
(Smijeh)
10:06
You can guess in which direction, right?
221
594005
2321
Možete pogoditi u kojem smjeru, zar ne?
10:09
Anyway, in 168 hours a week,
222
597567
2213
U svakom slučaju, u 168 sati tjedno
10:11
I think we can find time
for what matters to you.
for what matters to you.
223
599804
2964
mislim kako možemo naći vremena
za ono što nam je važno.
za ono što nam je važno.
10:14
If you want to spend
more time with your kids,
more time with your kids,
224
602792
2198
Ako želite provesti što više
vremena sa svojom djecom,
vremena sa svojom djecom,
10:17
you want to study more
for a test you're taking,
for a test you're taking,
225
605014
2305
želite učiti više za test koji
polažete,
polažete,
10:19
you want to exercise for three hours
and volunteer for two,
and volunteer for two,
226
607343
3345
želite vježbati tri sata i
volontirati dva,
volontirati dva,
10:22
you can.
227
610712
1154
možete.
10:23
And that's even if you're working
way more than full-time hours.
way more than full-time hours.
228
611890
3641
A to je, čak i ako radite puno
više od punog radnog vremena.
više od punog radnog vremena.
10:27
So we have plenty of time, which is great,
229
615885
2052
Dakle, imamo dosta vremena, što je super,
10:29
because guess what?
230
617961
1226
ali znate što?
10:31
We don't even need that much
time to do amazing things.
time to do amazing things.
231

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Laura Vanderkam - AuthorLaura Vanderkam shatters the myth that there just isn’t enough time in the week for working professionals to live happy, balanced and productive lives.
Why you should listen
Between careers and kids, many women feel that they are too busy to cram in anything else. To test the truth of this feeling, author Laura Vanderkam began logging her time for each of the 168 hours of the week. Among her surprising findings: we retroactively overestimate the amount of time spent stressing about work while underestimating our available downtime.
In her latest book, I Know How She Does It, Vanderkam analyzes the ways in which professional women successfully balance free time and work -- and explores how everyday readers can benefit from their experiences.
