Kada su ljudi najsrećniji? Da bi prikupio odgovore na ovo pitanje, Met Kilingsvort je konstruisao aplikaciju koja se zove Prati svoju sreću (Track Your Happiness) i koja je omogućila ljudima da iskažu svoja osećanja u sadašnjem vremenu. Među iznenađujućim rezultatima je i ovaj: najčešće smo najsrećniji kada smo izgubljeni u trenutku. A suprotna činjenica je sledeća: što nam više misli lutaju, manje možemo da budemo srećni.

So, people want a lot of things out of life,
0
944
2622
Ljudi žele mnogo stvari od života,
00:19
but I think, more than anything else, they want happiness.
1
3566
3895
ali mislim da više od svega, žele sreću.
00:23
Aristotle called happiness "the chief good," the end
2
7461
3328
Arsiotel je nazvao sreću "najvećim dobrom", krajem
00:26
towards which all other things aim.
3
10789
3272
kojem sve druge stvari teže.
00:29
According to this view, the reason we want a big house
4
14061
5520
Prema njegovom viđenju, razlog
zašto želimo veliku kuću
zašto želimo veliku kuću
00:35
or a nice car
5
19581
2633
ili dobar auto
00:38
or a good job
6
22214
2080
ili dobar posao
00:40
isn't that these things are intrinsically valuable.
7
24294
2448
nije jer su ove stvari istinski vredne.
00:42
It's that we expect them to bring us
8
26742
2518
Zapravo očekujemo da nam donesu
00:45
happiness.
9
29260
1457
sreću.
00:46
Now in the last 50 years, we Americans have gotten
10
30717
2632
U poslednjih 50 godina,
mi Amerikanci dobili smo
mi Amerikanci dobili smo
00:49
a lot of the things that we want. We're richer.
11
33349
2027
mnoge stvari koje želimo.
Postali smo bogatiji.
Postali smo bogatiji.
00:51
We live longer. We have access to technology
12
35376
3077
Živimo duže. Imamo pristup tehnologiji
00:54
that would have seemed like science fiction
13
38453
2167
koja je samo pre nekoliko godina izgledala kao
00:56
just a few years ago.
14
40620
2241
naučna fantastika.
00:58
The paradox of happiness is that even though the
15
42861
2424
Paradoks sreće leži u tome što iako
01:01
objective conditions of our lives have improved dramatically,
16
45285
2902
su se objektivni uslovi našeg života
u velikoj meri poboljšali,
u velikoj meri poboljšali,
01:04
we haven't actually gotten any happier.
17
48187
3564
mi zapravo nismo postali srećniji.
01:07
Maybe because these conventional notions of progress
18
51751
2919
Možda zato što konvencionalno gledanje na napredak
01:10
haven't delivered big benefits in terms of happiness,
19
54670
2476
nije doprinelo većoj sreći,
01:13
there's been an increased interest in recent years
20
57146
2130
došlo je do povećanog interesovanja
u poslednjih nekoliko godina
u poslednjih nekoliko godina
01:15
in happiness itself.
21
59276
2522
za samu sreću.
01:17
People have been debating the causes of happiness
22
61798
2035
Ljudi diskutuju o uzrocima sreće
01:19
for a really long time, in fact for thousands of years,
23
63833
2599
već veoma dugo, zapravo već hiljadama godina,
01:22
but it seems like many of those debates remain unresolved.
24
66432
3457
ali izgleda da mnoge od tih
diskusija ostaju nerešene.
diskusija ostaju nerešene.
01:25
Well, as with many other domains in life, I think
25
69889
2059
Kao i sa mnogim drugim
domenima u životu, smatram
domenima u životu, smatram
01:27
the scientific method has the potential to answer this question.
26
71948
3212
da naučni metod ima potencijal
da odgovori na ovo pitanje.
da odgovori na ovo pitanje.
01:31
In fact, in the last few years, there's been an explosion
27
75160
2534
Zapravo, u poslednjih nekoliko godina
došlo je do ekspanzije
došlo je do ekspanzije
01:33
in research on happiness. For example, we've learned a lot
28
77694
2801
u istraživanju o sreći.
Na primer, mnogo smo naučili
Na primer, mnogo smo naučili
01:36
about its demographics, how things like income
29
80495
3112
o njenog demografiji, kako neke stvari
kao što su primanja
kao što su primanja
01:39
and education, gender and marriage relate to it.
30
83607
3426
i obrazovanje, pol i brak imaju veze s njom.
01:42
But one of the puzzles this has revealed is that
31
87033
2222
Jedna od zagonetki koja je
rešena je da izgleda da
rešena je da izgleda da
01:45
factors like these don't seem to have a particularly strong effect.
32
89255
2939
faktori kao što su ovi,
nemaju posebno jak efekat.
nemaju posebno jak efekat.
01:48
Yes, it's better to make more money rather than less,
33
92194
2437
Da, bolje je zarađivati
više nego manje para
više nego manje para
01:50
or to graduate from college instead of dropping out,
34
94631
2712
ili diplomirati umesto
odustati od fakulteta,
odustati od fakulteta,
01:53
but the differences in happiness tend to be small.
35
97343
2761
ali razlike u sreći su male.
01:56
Which leaves the question, what are the big causes of happiness?
36
100104
3835
Što nas dovodi do pitanja,
šta su veliki uzroci sreće?
šta su veliki uzroci sreće?
01:59
I think that's a question we haven't really answered yet,
37
103939
2697
Mislim da na ovo pitanje
još uvek nismo odgovorili,
još uvek nismo odgovorili,
02:02
but I think something that has the potential to be an answer
38
106636
2712
ali smatram da nešto što ima
potencijal da bude odgovor
potencijal da bude odgovor
02:05
is that maybe happiness has an awful lot to do with
39
109348
2721
je da je sreća možda
mnogo povezana sa
mnogo povezana sa
02:07
the contents of our moment-to-moment experiences.
40
112069
2444
sadržajem naših iskustava
iz trenutka u trenutak.
iz trenutka u trenutak.
02:10
It certainly seems that we're going about our lives,
41
114513
1995
Svakako deluje da utičemo na naše živote,
02:12
that what we're doing, who we're with, what we're thinking about,
42
116508
3935
da ono što radimo, sa kim smo,
o čemu razmišljamo
o čemu razmišljamo
02:16
have a big influence on our happiness, and yet
43
120443
2352
ima velikog uticaja na našu sreću, ali ipak
02:18
these are the very factors that have been very difficult,
44
122795
2233
ovo su razni faktori koji su bili veoma teški,
02:20
in fact almost impossible, for scientists to study.
45
125028
2387
zapravo skoro nemogući za proučavanje naučnika.
02:23
A few years ago, I came up with a way to study people's happiness
46
127415
3061
Pre nekoliko godina, dosetio sam se
načina da proučavam ljudsku sreću
načina da proučavam ljudsku sreću
02:26
moment to moment as they're going about their daily lives
47
130476
2579
iz trenutka u trenutak, u normalnim,
svakodnevnim okolnostima,
svakodnevnim okolnostima,
02:28
on a massive scale all over the world, something we'd never
48
133055
2742
svuda u svetu, nešto što nikada pre
02:31
been able to do before. Called trackyourhappiness.org,
49
135797
2791
nismo bili u stanju da uradimo. Zove se trackyourhappiness.org,
02:34
it uses the iPhone to monitor people's happiness in real time.
50
138588
4286
koristi iPhone da nadgleda ljudsku sreću
u stvarnom vremenu.
u stvarnom vremenu.
02:38
How does this work? Basically, I send people signals
51
142874
2789
Kako ovo funkcioniše?
Pošaljem ljudima signale
Pošaljem ljudima signale
02:41
at random points throughout the day, and then I ask them
52
145663
2440
u nasumičnim trenucima u toku
dana i zatim im postavim
dana i zatim im postavim
02:44
a bunch of questions about their moment-to-moment experience
53
148103
2288
gomilu pitanja o njihovom iskustvu
iz trenutka u trenutak
iz trenutka u trenutak
02:46
at the instant just before the signal.
54
150391
2534
u momentu neposredno pred signal.
02:48
The idea is that, if we can watch how people's happiness
55
152925
2807
Ideja je ta da ako možemo
da nadgledamo kako ljudska sreća
da nadgledamo kako ljudska sreća
02:51
goes up and down over the course of the day,
56
155732
2624
ima uspone i padove u toku dana,
02:54
minute to minute in some cases,
57
158356
1728
u nekim slučajevima čak iz minuta u minut
02:55
and try to understand how what people are doing,
58
160084
2142
i pokušamo da razumemo
kako ono što ljudi rade,
kako ono što ljudi rade,
02:58
who they're with, what they're thinking about, and all
59
162226
2843
sa kim su, o čemu razmišljaju i svi
03:00
the other factors that describe our day, how those might
60
165069
2176
drugi faktori koji opisuju naš dan,
kako bi oni mogli
kako bi oni mogli
03:03
relate to those changes in happiness, we might be able
61
167245
2711
da se povežu sa promenama
u sreći, mogli bismo da
u sreći, mogli bismo da
03:05
to discover some of the things that really have
62
169956
1546
otkrijemo neke od stvari koje zaista
03:07
a big influence on happiness.
63
171502
2305
vrše veliki uticaj na sreću.
03:09
We've been fortunate with this project to collect
64
173807
2306
Bili smo te sreće da ovim projektom prikupimo
03:12
quite a lot of data, a lot more data of this kind than I think
65
176113
2858
popriličan broj informacija, mnogo više
informacija ove vrste nego što mislim
informacija ove vrste nego što mislim
03:14
has ever been collected before,
66
178971
1859
da je ikada pre prikupljeno,
03:16
over 650,000 real-time reports
67
180830
3221
preko 650 000 izveštaja u stvarnom vremenu,
03:19
from over 15,000 people.
68
184051
2879
od preko 15 000 ljudi.
03:22
And it's not just a lot of people, it's a really diverse group,
69
186930
3109
Ne radi se samo o mnogo ljudi,
radi se o zaista raznolikoj grupi
radi se o zaista raznolikoj grupi
03:25
people from a wide range of ages, from 18 to late 80s,

ljudi iz širokog spektra godina,
od 18 do kasnih 80-ih,

people who are married, divorced, widowed, etc.

03:42
What I'd like to do with the rest of my time with you today
75
206642
2902
Voleo bih danas u ostatku
svog vremena sa vama
svog vremena sa vama
03:45
is talk a little bit about one of the areas that we've been
76
209544
2129
da govorim o jednoj od oblasti koje smo
03:47
investigating, and that's mind-wandering.
77
211673
3183
istraživali, a to je lutanje misli.
03:50
As human beings, we have this unique ability
78
214856
2400
Kao ljudska bića, imamo jedinstvenu sposobnost
03:53
to have our minds stray away from the present.
79
217256
2935
da nam misli odlutaju iz sadašnjosti.
03:56
This guy is sitting here working on his computer,
80
220191
1925
Ovaj tip sedi ovde i radi za kompjuterom,
03:58
and yet he could be thinking about
81
222116
1054
ali zapravo bi mogao da razmišlja o
03:59
the vacation he had last month,
82
223170
2689
odmoru na kom je bio prošlog meseca,
04:01
wondering what he's going to have for dinner.
83
225859
1963
da se pita šta će imati za večeru.
04:03
Maybe he's worried that he's going bald. (Laughter)
84
227822
3833
Možda je zabrinut što ćelavi. (Smeh)
04:07
This ability to focus our attention on something other
85
231655
2785
Ova sposobnost da usredsredimo
pažnju na nešto drugo,
pažnju na nešto drugo,
04:10
than the present is really amazing. It allows us to learn
86
234440
3255
a ne na sadašnjost je zaista sjajna.
Dopušta nam da učimo
Dopušta nam da učimo
04:13
and plan and reason in ways that no other species of animal can.
87
237695
4494
i planiramo i rezonujemo na načine na koje
ni jedna druga životinjska vrsta ne može.
ni jedna druga životinjska vrsta ne može.
04:18
And yet it's not clear what the relationship is
88
242189
2398
A zapravo nije jasno koja je povezanost između
04:20
between our use of this ability and our happiness.
89
244587
3916
našeg korišćenja ove sposobnosti i naše sreće.
04:24
You've probably heard people suggest that you should
90
248503
1858
Verovatno ste čuli da ljudi predlažu da bi trebalo
04:26
stay focused on the present. "Be here now,"
91
250361
2491
ostati fokusiran na sadašnjost.
,,Budi ovde sada",
,,Budi ovde sada",
04:28
you've probably heard a hundred times.
92
252852
1485
verovatno ste to već čuli stotinu puta.
04:30
Maybe, to really be happy, we need to stay completely
93
254337
2681
Možda, da bismo zaista bili srećni,
moramo da ostanemo potpuno
moramo da ostanemo potpuno
04:32
immersed and focused on our experience in the moment.
94
257018
3511
usredsređeni na naše iskustvo u trenutku.
04:36
Maybe these people are right. Maybe mind-wandering
95
260529
1834
Možda su ovi ljudi u pravu.
Možda je lutanje misli
Možda je lutanje misli
04:38
is a bad thing.
96
262363
1730
loša stvar.
04:39
On the other hand, when our minds wander,
97
264093
2419
S druge strane, kada nam misli lutaju,
04:42
they're unconstrained. We can't change the physical reality
98
266512
2661
one nisu koncentrisane. Ne možemo
da promenimo fizičku realnost
da promenimo fizičku realnost
04:45
in front of us, but we can go anywhere in our minds.
99
269173
3388
pred nama, ali možemo da odlutamo
bilo gde u našim mislima.
bilo gde u našim mislima.
04:48
Since we know people want to be happy, maybe
100
272561
1813
Znamo da ljudi žele da budu srećni, pa možda
04:50
when our minds wander, they're going to someplace happier than the place
101
274374
2691
kada nam misli lutaju, one zapravo
odlaze na neko srećnije mesto
odlaze na neko srećnije mesto
04:52
that they're leaving. It would make a lot of sense.
102
277065
2233
od onog koje napuštaju.
Imalo bi smisla.
Imalo bi smisla.
04:55
In other words, maybe the pleasures of the mind
103
279298
1498
Drugim rečima, možda nam zadovoljstva uma
04:56
allow us to increase our happiness with mind-wandering.
104
280796
4426
dozvole da lutanjem misli povećamo sreću.
05:01
Well, since I'm a scientist, I'd like to try to
105
285222
2011
S obzirom na to da sam naučnik,
voleo bih da pokušam da
voleo bih da pokušam da
05:03
resolve this debate with some data, and in particular
106
287233
2677
rešim ovu debatu nekim informacijama i posebno,
05:05
I'd like to present some data to you from three questions
107
289910
2488
voleo bih da vam predstavim
neke informacije sa tri pitanja,
neke informacije sa tri pitanja,
05:08
that I ask with Track Your Happiness. Remember, this is from
108
292398
2210
koja postavljam projektom Prati svoju sreću.
Zapamtite, ovo je iz
Zapamtite, ovo je iz
05:10
sort of moment-to-moment experience in people's real lives.
109
294608
2652
iskustava realnih života ljudi
iz trenutka u trenutak.
iz trenutka u trenutak.
05:13
There are three questions. The first one is a happiness question:
110
297260
3030
Tu su tri pitanja. Prvo je pitanje o sreći:
05:16
How do you feel, on a scale ranging from very bad
111
300290
2875
kako se osećate, na skali od veoma loše
05:19
to very good? Second, an activity question:
112
303165
4139
do veoma dobro? Drugo je pitanje o aktivnostima:
05:23
What are you doing, on a list of 22 different activities
113
307304
2528
šta radite, na listi od 22 različite aktivnosti,
05:25
including things like eating and working and watching TV?
114
309832
3225
uključujući stvari kao što su
jedenje, rad i gledanje TV-a?
jedenje, rad i gledanje TV-a?
05:28
And finally a mind-wandering question:
115
313057
3588
I konačno pitanje o lutanju misli:
05:32
Are you thinking about something other
116
316645
2642
da li mislite na nešto drugo
05:35
than what you're currently doing?
117
319287
2623
osim na ono što trenutno radite?
05:37
People could say no -- in other words, I'm focused only on my task --
118
321910
3442
Ljudi mogu da kažu ne - drugim rečima,
skoncentrisan sam samo na ono što radim -
skoncentrisan sam samo na ono što radim -
05:41
or yes -- I am thinking about something else --
119
325352
2529
ili da - mislim na nešto drugo -
05:43
and the topic of those thoughts are pleasant,
120
327881
2456
i teme tih misli su priijatne,
05:46
neutral or unpleasant.
121
330337
1426
neutralne ili neprijatne.
05:47
Any of those yes responses are what we called mind-wandering.

Svi odgovori sa da su ono
što nazivamo lutanjem misli.
što nazivamo lutanjem misli.
05:53
So what did we find?
123
337222
2465
Šta smo otkrili?
05:55
This graph shows happiness on the vertical axis,
124
339687
2299
Ovaj grafik pokazuje sreću na vertikalnoj osi
05:57
and you can see that bar there representing how happy
125
341986
2240
i možete videti da ovaj pravougaonik
predstavlja koliko su ljudi srećni
predstavlja koliko su ljudi srećni
06:00
people are when they're focused on the present,
126
344226
1333
kada su usredsređeni na sadašnjost,
06:01
when they're not mind-wandering.
127
345559
1923
kada im misli ne lutaju.
06:03
As it turns out, people are substantially less happy
128
347482
3719
Kako se ispostavilo, ljudi su manje srećni
06:07
when their minds are wandering than when they're not.
129
351201
4736
kada im misli lutaju
nego kada im ne lutaju.
nego kada im ne lutaju.
06:11
Now you might look at this result and say, okay, sure,
130
355937
2602
Možete pogledati ovaj rezultat
i reći, dobro, naravno,
i reći, dobro, naravno,
06:14
on average people are less happy when they're mind-wandering,
131
358539
2422
u proseku, ljudi su manje srećni
kada im misli lutaju,
kada im misli lutaju,
06:16
but surely when their minds are straying away
132
360961
1668
ali sa sigurnošću misli im lutaju
06:18
from something that wasn't very enjoyable to begin with,
133
362629
2119
od nečega što od samog početka
nije bilo nešto u čemu su uživali,
nije bilo nešto u čemu su uživali,
06:20
at least then mind-wandering should be doing something good for us.
134
364748
3764
barem bi tada lutanje misli trebalo
da nam donese nešto dobro.
da nam donese nešto dobro.
06:24
Nope. As it turns out,
135
368512
2699
Ali nije tako. Ispostavlja se,
06:27
people are less happy when they're mind-wandering
136
371211
1692
da su ljudi manje srećni
kada im misli lutaju,
kada im misli lutaju,
06:28
no matter what they're doing. For example,
137
372903
3026
bez obzira na to šta rade. Na primer,
06:31
people don't really like commuting to work very much.
138
375929
2177
ljudi ne vole baš mnogo da putuju na posao.
06:34
It's one of their least enjoyable activities, and yet
139
378106
2760
To je jedna od aktivnosti u kojima
najmanje uživaju, ali su uprkos tome
najmanje uživaju, ali su uprkos tome
06:36
they are substantially happier when they're focused
140
380866
2534
srećniji kada su usredsređeniji
06:39
only on their commute than when their mind is going
141
383400
2362
na svoje putovanje,
nego kada im misli odlutaju
nego kada im misli odlutaju
06:41
off to something else.
142
385762
3047
na nešto drugo.
06:44
It's amazing.
143
388809
1782
Sjajno je.
06:46
So how could this be happening? I think part of the reason,
144
390591
3845
Kako je moguće da se ovo dešava?
Smatram da je
Smatram da je
06:50
a big part of the reason, is that when our minds wander,
145
394436
2398
delimično razlog to što
kada nam misli lutaju,
kada nam misli lutaju,
06:52
we often think about unpleasant things, and they are
146
396834
2856
često mislimo na neprijatne stvari i ljudi su
06:55
enormously less happy when they do that,
147
399690
3607
mnogo manje srećni kada to rade -
06:59
our worries, our anxieties, our regrets,
148
403297
2665
naše brige, naši strahovi, kajanja -
07:01
and yet even when people are thinking about something
149
405962
2960
a međutim kada ljudi misle na nešto
07:04
neutral, they're still considerably less happy
150
408922
2864
neutralno, značajno su manje srećni
07:07
than when they're not mind-wandering at all.
151
411786
1977
nego kada im misli uopšte ne lutaju.
07:09
Even when they're thinking about something they would describe as pleasant,
152
413763
2835
Čak i kada misle na nešto
što bi opisali kao prijatno,
što bi opisali kao prijatno,
07:12
they're actually just slightly less happy
153
416598
2204
zapravo su samo malo manje srećni,
07:14
than when they aren't mind-wandering.
154
418802
3257
nego kada im misli ne lutaju.
07:17
If mind-wandering were a slot machine, it would be like
155
422059
2062
Kada bi lutanje misli bilo
slot mašina, bilo bi kao
slot mašina, bilo bi kao
07:20
having the chance to lose 50 dollars, 20 dollars
156
424121
3033
da imate šansu da izgubite
50 dolara, 20 dolara
50 dolara, 20 dolara
07:23
or one dollar. Right? You'd never want to play. (Laughter)
157
427154
6151
ili jedan dolar. Zar ne?
Nikada ne biste hteli da igrate. (Smeh)
Nikada ne biste hteli da igrate. (Smeh)
07:29
So I've been talking about this, suggesting, perhaps,
158
433305
2673
Govorio sam o ovome,
možda čak sugerisao na to
možda čak sugerisao na to
07:31
that mind-wandering causes unhappiness, but all
159
435978
2812
da lutanje misli uzrokuje nesreću,
07:34
I've really shown you is that these two things are correlated.
160
438790
2767
ali sam vam zapravo pokazao
da su ove dve stvari povezane.
da su ove dve stvari povezane.
07:37
It's possible that's the case, but it might also be the case
161
441557
2785
Moguće je da je tako,
ali moglo bi takođe da bude
ali moglo bi takođe da bude
07:40
that when people are unhappy, then they mind-wander.
162
444342
2454
da ljudima misli lutaju
kada su nesrećni.
kada su nesrećni.
07:42
Maybe that's what's really going on. How could we ever
163
446796
2369
Možda je to ono što se zapravo dešava.
Kako ikada možemo da
Kako ikada možemo da
07:45
disentangle these two possibilites?
164
449165
3089
razdvojimo ove dve mogućnosti?
07:48
Well, one fact that we can take advantage of, I think a fact
165
452254
2344
Možemo iskoristiti jednu prednost.
Složićete se sa mnom da
Složićete se sa mnom da
07:50
you'll all agree is true, is that time goes forward, not
166
454598
2957
je činjenica da vreme ide unapred, a ne unazad.
07:53
backward. Right? The cause has to come before the effect.
167
457555
3997
Je li tako? Uzrok mora da dođe pre posledice.
07:57
We're lucky in this data we have many responses from each person,
168
461552
3430
Srećni smo što imamo odgovore od svake osobe,
08:00
and so we can look and see, does mind-wandering
169
464982
3196
tako da možemo da pogledamo
i vidimo, da li lutanje misli
i vidimo, da li lutanje misli
08:04
tend to precede unhappiness, or does unhappiness
170
468178
2493
teži da prethodi nesreći ili pak da li nesreća
08:06
tend to precede mind-wandering, to get some insight
171
470671
2183
prethodi lutanju misli i tako prodremo u
08:08
into the causal direction.
172
472854
2161
uzroke ove pojave.
08:10
As it turns out, there is a strong relationship between
173
475015
3209
Ispostavilo se da postoji jaka veza između
08:14
mind-wandering now and being unhappy a short time later,
174
478224
3685
lutanja misli u ovom trenutku
i osećaja nesreće odmah posle,
i osećaja nesreće odmah posle,
08:17
consistent with the idea that mind-wandering is causing people to be unhappy.
175
481909
3719
što se slaže sa idejom da lutanje misli
prouzrokuje ljudsku nereću.
prouzrokuje ljudsku nereću.
08:21
In contrast, there's no relationship between being unhappy
176
485628
3160
Poređenja radi, ne postoji veza
između osećanja nesreće
između osećanja nesreće
08:24
now and mind-wandering a short time later.
177
488788
3009
u datom trenutku i lutanja
misli kratko nakon toga.
misli kratko nakon toga.
08:27
In other words, mind-wandering very likely seems to be
178
491797
2322
Drugim rečima, lutanje misli je vrlo verovatno
08:30
an actual cause, and not merely a consequence, of unhappiness.
179
494119
5840
stvaran uzrok, a ne samo posledica nesreće.
08:35
A few minutes ago, I likened mind-wandering
180
499959
2224
Pre nekoliko minuta, uporedio sam lutanje misli
08:38
to a slot machine you'd never want to play.
181
502183
2263
sa slot mašinom, koju nikada nećete poželeti da igrate.
08:40
Well, how often do people's minds wander?
182
504446
2304
Koliko često ljudima misli lutaju?
08:42
Turns out, they wander a lot. In fact, really a lot.
183
506750
4457
Ispostavlja se da mnogo lutaju.
Zapravo, zaista mnogo.
Zapravo, zaista mnogo.
08:47
Forty-seven percent of the time, people are thinking
184
511207
2694
47% vremena, ljudi misle na nešto
08:49
about something other than what they're currently doing.
185
513901
3407
drugo, a ne na ono što rade u tom trenutku.
08:53
How does that depend on what people are doing?
186
517308
2438
Kako to zavisi od onoga što ljudi rade?
08:55
This shows the rate of mind-wandering across 22 activities
187
519746
2753
Ovo prikazuje stopu lutanja misli u 22 aktivnosti
08:58
ranging from a high of 65 percent — (Laughter) —
188
522499
3999
što ima raspon od 65% - (Smeh) -
09:02
when people are taking a shower, brushing their teeth,
189
526498
2512
kada se ljudi tuširaju, peru zube,
09:04
to 50 percent when they're working,
190
529010
2901
do 50% kada rade,
09:07
to 40 percent when they're exercising,
191
531911
3043
40% kada vežbaju,
09:10
all the way down to this one short bar on the right
192
534954
1919
sve do ove kratke linije sa desne strane,
09:12
that I think some of you are probably laughing at.
193
536873
1988
kojoj se verovatno, mislim, neki od vas smeju.
09:14
Ten percent of the time people's minds are wandering
194
538861
2390
10% vremena ljudski um luta
09:17
when they're having sex. (Laughter)
195
541251
4571
kada imaju seks. (Smeh)
09:21
But there's something I think that's quite interesting in this graph,
196
545822
2933
Smatram da je na ovom grafiku veoma zanimljivo
09:24
and that is, basically with one exception,
197
548755
3048
to što, doduše sa jednim izuzetkom,
09:27
no matter what people are doing, they're mind-wandering
198
551803
2178
bez obzira na to šta rade,
ljudima lutaju misli
ljudima lutaju misli
09:29
at least 30 percent of the time, which suggests, I think,
199
553981
3678
barem 30% vremena,
što sugeriše, mislim,
što sugeriše, mislim,
09:33
that mind-wandering isn't just frequent, it's ubiquitous.
200
557659
2831
da lutanje misli ne samo da je
učestalo, već je i sveprisutno.
učestalo, već je i sveprisutno.
09:36
It pervades basically everything that we do.
201
560490
3733
Prepliće se kroz sve što radimo.
09:40
In my talk today, I've told you a little bit about mind-wandering,
202
564223
3196
Danas sam vam u svom govoru
rekao nešto o lutanju misli,
rekao nešto o lutanju misli,
09:43
a variable that I think turns out to be fairly important
203
567419
2050
o varijabli za koju se ispostavilo
da je prilično važna
da je prilično važna
09:45
in the equation for happiness.
204
569469
1656
u jednačini za sreću.
09:47
My hope is that over time, by tracking people's
205
571125
2015
Nadam se da ćemo vremenom, kroz praćenje
09:49
moment-to-moment happiness and their experiences
206
573140
3048
sreće ljudi iz trenutka u trenutak
i njihovog iskustva
i njihovog iskustva
09:52
in daily life, we'll be able to uncover a lot of important causes of happiness,
207
576188
3402
u svakodnevnom životu, biti u stanju
da otkrijemo mnogo važnih uzroka sreće,
da otkrijemo mnogo važnih uzroka sreće,
09:55
and then in the end, a scientific understanding of happiness
208
579590
2930
a onda i da će nam naučno razumevanje sreće
09:58
will help us create a future that's not only richer
209
582520
2697
pomoći da stvorimo budućnost
koja ne samo da će biti bogatija
koja ne samo da će biti bogatija
10:01
and healthier, but happier as well.
210
585217
2862
i zdravija, već i srećnija.
10:03
Thank you. (Applause)

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Matt Killingsworth - Happiness researcherResearcher Matt Killingsworth designs studies that gather data on happiness. One takeaway? "A Wandering Mind Is an Unhappy Mind."
Why you should listen
While doing his PhD research with Dan Gilbert at Harvard, Matt Killingsworth invented a nifty tool for investigating happiness: an iPhone app called Track Your Happiness that captured feelings in real time. (Basically, it pings you at random times and asks: How are you feeling right now, and what are you doing?) Data captured from the study became the landmark paper "A Wandering Mind Is an Unhappy Mind" (PDF).
As an undergrad, Killingsworth studied economics and engineering, and worked for a few years as a software product manager -- an experience during which, he says, "I began to question my assumptions about what defined success for an individual, an organization, or a society." He's now a Robert Wood Johnson Health and Society Scholar examining such topics as "the relationship between happiness and the content of everyday experiences, the percentage of everyday experiences that are intrinsically valuable, and the degree of congruence between the causes of momentary happiness and of one’s overall satisfaction with life."
