马特·卡茨尝试做新事情30天
把一件事坚持30天(结果惊人)
把一件事坚持30天（结果惊人）导语:把一件事坚持30天（结果惊人）文/韦斯托原来这就是“荷花定律”。
01国外有一个叫摩根的青年，每天很闲，有天突发奇想——连续吃三十天麦当劳会怎样？他说干就干，一日三餐都吃麦当劳，连吃三十天。
他还用摄像机记录下了这一过程。
三十天后，摩根的体重增加了25磅（约23斤），而且还出现了轻度抑郁和肝脏衰竭现象。
要知道，之前摩根可是非常健康的，真是no zuo no die why you try。
02摩根连续三十天吃麦当劳的视频引起了另一个人的关注。
他叫马特·卡茨，是著名的谷歌工程师。
他告诉自己，既然30天可以改变一个人，那为什么不朝好的方向改变呢？于是，他给自己列了一份30天挑战计划。
完成四个任务：骑车上班；每天步行10000步；每天拍一张照片；写一本50000字的自传。
克服四个习惯：不看电视；不吃糖；不玩推特；拒绝咖啡因。
除了那本五万字的自传，其他七项都是非常小的挑战。
然而就是这本自传，平均到每天也只有1667个字。
30天后，马特·卡茨从一个肥胖的宅男工程师变成了一个拥有健康、乐观、文采等多种美好品质的人。
他说：“做那些小的、持续性的挑战，30天后你会感谢自己。
”03在一个荷花池中，第一天开放的荷花只是很少的一部分，第二天开放的数量是第一天的两倍，之后的每一天，荷花都会以前一天两倍的数量开放……假设到第30天荷花就开满了整个池塘，那么请问：在第几天池塘中的荷花开了一半？第15天？错。
是第29天。
这就是著名的荷花定律，也叫30天定律。
很多人的一生就像池塘里的荷花，一开始用力地开，玩命地开......但渐渐的，你开始感到枯燥甚至是厌烦，你可能在第9天、第19天甚至第29天的时候放弃了坚持。
这时，往往离成功只有一步之遥。
荷花定律告诉我们这样一个道理：越到最后，越关键。
拼到最后，拼的不是运气和聪明，而是毅力。
04有人提到“改变”就头大，其实是他们把“改变”想得太繁杂了。
30天尝试新事物
Matt Cutts : Try something new for 30 days 【小计划帮你实现大目标】是否有些事情，你一直想去做，但就是没有实现？马特•卡茨建议：尝试30天。
这个简短而轻松愉快的演讲提出了一个简洁方法，用来考虑制定和实现目标。
马特是Google所有工程师中最广为人知的一个，他提出在行动前我们不妨先来考虑制定一个短期计划来实现目标。
Is there something you've always meant to do, wanted to do, but just ... haven't? Matt Cutts suggests: Try it for 30 days. This short, light-hearted talk offers an easy way to think about setting and achieving goals.Matt Cutts is an engineer at Google, where he fights link spam and helps web masters Understand how search works.Why you should listen to him：Matt Cutts works on search at Google, specializing in search optimization. He's a friendly and public face for helping webmasters understand how Google's search actually works, making hundreds of videos that answer questions about SEO. (Search Engine Land made this handy chart of all of them.) He's an advocate for cutting down on poor practice such as link spam. He also wrote the first version of Safe Search, Google’s family filter.Quotes by Matt Cutts：“The next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so whynot think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days?”“Thirty days is just about the right amount of time to add a new habit or subtract a habit — like watching the news —from your life.”Speech ContentA few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut, so I decided to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock, and try something new for 30 days. The idea is actually pretty simple. Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days. It turns out,30 days is just about the right amount of time to add a new habit or subtract a habit -- like watching the news -- from your life.There are a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges. The first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable. This was part of a challenge I did to take a picture every day for a month. And I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing that day. I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder 30-day challenges, my self-confidence grew. I went from desk-dwelling computer nerd to the kind of guy who bikes to work --for fun. Even last year, I ended up hiking up Mt. Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. I would never have been that adventurous before Istarted my 30-day challenges.I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30days. Have you ever wanted to write a novel? Every November, tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000-word novel from scratch in 30 days. It turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month. So I did. By the way, the secret is not to go to sleep until you've written your words for the day. You might be sleep-deprived, but you'll finish your novel. Now is my book the next great American novel? No. I wrote it in a month. It's awful. But for the rest of my life, if I meet John Hodgman at a TED party, I don't have to say, "I'm a computer scientist." No, no, if I want to, I can say, "I'm a novelist."(Laughter)So here's one last thing I'd like to mention. I learned that when I made small, sustainable changes, things I could keep doing, they were more likely to stick. There's nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges. In fact, they're a ton of fun. But they're less likely to stick. When I gave up sugar for 30days, day 31 looked like this.(Laughter)So here's my question to you: What are you waiting for? I guarantee you the next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it ashot for the next 30 days.Thanks.(Applause)当你开始感叹生活枯燥，每天的生活除了上班下班、吃饭约会、洗洗睡之外再无乐趣可言时，不妨试下改变你的生活方式：培养一种新的爱好，每天做一件你喜欢做的事情，培养一种新的生活习惯。

最新-一个30+女孩的疯狂试验如何用30天改变人生 精品
一个30+女孩的疯狂试验：如何用30天改变人生一个30+女孩的疯狂试验：如何用30天改变人生文/黄凯莉几年前的一天我从一家外企辞职，当天半夜我与好友去吃羊肉火锅。
羊肉吃得正起劲儿，朋友突然对我来了一句：“你现在就是一个大Ls，没钱没男人，有的就是一脸青春痘和一个巨大无比的胃！”我一激动，把筷子里的羊肉丢回锅里，对她说：“Su up！！！不是老娘我找不到，老娘要找，30天给你找到！”朋友说，可以，谁输了，30天后老地方请客。
我说一言为定。
第二天我早上醒过来，哑巴巴地望着天花板，特别后悔。
30天，我要到哪里才能找一个男朋友呢？我读书算不上学霸但成绩还算优良，工作上业绩也一直不错，这说明我的智商和情商都是可以的，那怎么在遇到个人问题的时候就没辙了呢？我觉得，这不符合逻辑。
要是我把这个人问题当作一个工作项目来做，会不会成功？我曾经的工作是品牌营销，就是把产品包装定位之后卖给目标客户。
如果我把自己当作一个产品来包装，包装完了之后卖给“目标客户”，而这个“目标客户”就是我将来的男友，是否能够行得通？于是，我决定做一个30日的社会实验，用科学和商业策略探究30日找到男友的可行性。
30日实验开始的第一天我做了一轮深入的市场调研。
市场调研的目的是为了了解目标客户群体的终极需求是什么。
我开始询问周围的男性朋友，他们眼中的完美女人的标准有哪些。
同时，我阅读了大量的科学文献，包括生物，心理和社会学等等领域。
最后总结出了完美女人的三大黄金定律：性感，有趣，体贴。
为了快速变成那个完美女人，我开始停止吃垃圾食品，每天早睡早起，保养皮肤，锻炼身体。
同时我开始学会变得更加幽默，有同情心，我开始学着如何去关心别人……但我发现，光知道这些定律，甚至成为这样的女人还是远远不够，因为残酷的现实是，满足这三个标准的完美女人太多太多，我如何把自己和其他人区分开来，我的特别之处又是什么？那个时候我特别迷恋一项运动，叫水下曲棍球，就是在水底下打曲棍球，我相信别说是玩过这项运动，就算是听过这项运动的人都特别少。

【励志故事】把一件事坚持30天
【励志故事】把一件事坚持30天国外有一个叫摩根的青年，有天突发奇想——连续吃30天麦当劳会怎样？他说干就干，一日三餐都吃麦当劳，连吃30天，还用摄像机记录下了这一过程。
30天后，摩根的体重增加了25磅，还出现了轻度抑郁和肝脏衰竭现象。
要知道，之前摩根可是非常健康的，真是不作死就不会死。
摩根连续30天吃麦当劳的视频引起了另一个人的关注。
他叫马特·卡茨，是著名的谷歌工程师。
他告诉自己，既然30天可以改变一个人，那为什么不朝好的方向改变呢？于是他给自己列了一份30天挑战计划。
顺利完成4个任务：骑车下班；每天步行10000步；每天拍摄1张照片；写下一本50000字的自传。
克服4个习惯：看电视；吃糖；玩推特（相当于我们刷朋友圈）；咖啡因。
除了那本50000字的自传，其他7项都就是非常大的挑战。
然而就是这本自传，平均值至每天也只有1667个字。
30天后，马特·卡茨从一个肥胖的宅男工程师变成了一个拥有健康、乐观、文采等多种美好要素的人。
他说：“做那些小的、持续性的挑战，30天后你会感谢自己。
”在一个荷花池中，第一天对外开放的荷花只是很少的一部分，第二天对外开放的荷花数量就是第一天的两倍，之后的每一天，荷花可以以前一天两倍的数量对外开放……假设到第30天荷花就开满了整个池塘，那么请问：在第几天池塘中的荷花开了一半？第15天？错！是第29天。
这就是著名的荷花定律，也叫30天定律。
很多人的一生就像是池塘里的荷花，一已经开始用力地上开，但渐渐地已经开始深感乏味甚至就是厌倦，你可能将在第9天、第19天甚至第29天的时候退出了秉持，这时往往距顺利只有一步之遥。
荷花定律告诉我们这样一个道理：越到最后，越关键。
拼到最后，拼的不是运气和聪明，而是毅力。
有人提及“发生改变”就角盘兰，其实就是他们把“发生改变”想要得太繁琐了。
如果你想要培养清早的习惯，你只须要在前一天早起，早起的前提无非就是太少看看一集肥皂剧或者太少玩玩一个小时的游戏，仅此而已。

live in New Yirk,and I’ve been working in advertising for--ever since I left school,so about seven,eight years now,and it was draining.I worked a lot of late nights.I worked a lot of weekeneds,and I found myself nerver having time for all the projects that I wanted to work on my own.And one day I was at work and I saw a talk by Stefan Sagmeister on TED,and it was called”The power of time off”,and he spoke about how every seven years,he takes a year off from work so he could do his own creative projects,and I was instantly inspired,and I jusr said,”I have to do that.I have to take a year off.I need to travel and spend time with my family and start my own creative ideas.”So the first of those projects ended up being something I called ”One Second Every Day”.Basically I’m recording one second of every day of my life foe the resr of my life,chronologically compiling those one-second tiny slices of my life into one single continous video until,you kown,I can’t record them anymore.The purpose of this project is,one:I hate not remembering things that I’ve done in the past.There’s all these things that I’ve done with my life that I have no recollection of unless someone brings it up,and sometimes I think,”Oh,yeah,that’s something that I did.”And something that I realized early on the project was that if I wasn’t doing anything interesting,I would probably forget to record the video.So the day--the first time that I forgot,it really hurt me,because it’s something that I rally wanted to--from the moment that I turned 30,I wanted to keep this project going until forever,and having missed that one second,I realized,it just kind of created this thing in my head where I nerver forgot ever again.So if I live to see 80 years of age,I am going to have a five-hour video that encapsulates 50 years of my life.when I turn 40,I’ll have a one-hour video that includes just my 30s.This is really invigorated me day-to-day,when I wake up to try and do something interresting with my day.Now,one of the things that I have issues with is that,as the days and weeks and months go by,time just seems to start blurring and blending into each other and,you know,I hated that,and visalization is the way to trigger memory.You know,this project is a way for me to bridge that gap and remember everything that I’ve done.Even just one second allows me to remember everything else I did that one day.It’s difficult,sometimes,to pick that one second.On a good day,I’ll have maybe three or four secends that I really want to choose,but I’ll just have to narrow it down to one,but even narrowing it down to that one allows me to remember the other three anyway.It’s also kind of a protest,a personal protest,Against the culture we have now where people just are concerts with their cell phones out recording the whole concert,and they’re disturbing you.They’re not even enjoying the show.They are watching the concert through their cell phone.I hate that.I admittedly used to be that guy a little bit,back in the day,and I’ve decided that the best way for me to still capture and keeo a visual memory of my life and not be that person,is to just record that one second that allow me to trigger that memory of,”Yeah,that concert was amazing.I really loved that concert.”And it just take a quick,quick second.I was on athree-month road trip this summer.It was something that I’ve been dreaming about doing my whole life,just driving aroud the U.S. And Canada and just figuring out where to go the next day,and it was kind of outstanding.I actually ran out,I spent too much money on my road trip for the savings that I had to take ny year off,so I had to,I went to Seattle and I spend some time with friends working on a really neat project.One of the reasons that I took my year off was spend more time with my family,amd this really tragic thing happened where my sister-in-law,her intenstine suddenly strangled one day,and we took her tothe emergency room,and she was,she was in really bad shape.We almost lost her a couple of times,and I was there with my brother every day.It helped me realize something else during this project,is that recording that one second on a really bad day is extremely difficult.It’s not--we tend to take our cameras out when we’re doing awesome things.Or we’re,”Oh,yeah,this partty,let me take a picture.”But we rarely do that when we’re having a bad day,and something horrible is happening.And I found that it’s actually been very,very important to record even just that one second of a really bad moment.It really helps you appreciate the good times.It’s noot always a good day,so when you have a bad one,I think it’s important to remember it,just as mech as it is important to remember the good days.Now one of the things that I do is I don’t use any filters,I don’t use anything to--I try to capture the moment as much as possible as the way that I saw it with my own eyes.I started a rule of first person perspective.Early on,I think I had a couple of videos where you would see me in it,but I realized that wasn’t the way to go.The way to really remember what I saw was to record it as I actually saw it.Noe a couple of things that I have in my head about this project are,wouldn’t it be interesting if thousands of people were doing this?I turned 31 last week,which is there.I think it would be interesting to see what everyone did with a project like this.I think everyone would have a different interpreatation of it.I think everyone would benefit from just having that one second to remember every day.Personally,I’m tired of forgetting,and this is a really easy thing to do.I mean,we all have HD-capable cameras in our pockets right now--most people in this room,I bet--and it’s something that’s--I nerver want to forget another day that I’ve lived,and this is my way of doing that,and it’d be really interesting also to see,if you could just type in on a website”June 18,2018”,and you would just see a stream of people’s lives on that particular day from all over the world.And I don’t know,I think this project has a lot of possibilities, and I encourage you all to record just a small snippet of your life day, so you can nerver forget that day,you lived.Thank you.Drain v.耗尽，排掉水，流干Chronologically adv.按年代的Compile v.编译，编辑Recollection n.回忆encapsulate v.压缩，概述Invigorate v.鼓舞，增添活力Blurring adj.模糊的Visualization

Fast-forward a generation: this is the one-room schoolhouse, Oak Grove, where my father went to a one-room schoolhouse. And he again ha d to travel to the school to get the information from the teacher, stored it in the only portable m emory he has, which is inside his own head, and take it with him, because that is how informa tion was being transported from teacher to student and then used in theworld.When I was a kid, we had a set of encyclopedias at my house. It was purchased the ye ar I was born, and it was extraordinary, because I did not have to wait to go to the library to ge t to the information. The information was inside my house and it was awesome. This was diffe rentthan either generation had experienced before, and it changed the way I interacted with in formation even at just a small level. But the information was closer to me. I could get access t o it.In the time that passes between when I was a kid in high school and when I started teaching, we really see the advent of the Internet. Right about the time that the Internet gets going as a n educational tool, I take off from Wisconsin and move to Kansas, small town Kansas, where I had an opportunity to teach in a lovely, small-town, rural Kansas school district, where I was t eaching my favorite subject, American government. My first year -- super gung-ho -- going to t each American government, loved the political system. Kids in the 12th grade: not exactly all t hat enthusiastic about the American government system. Year two: learned a few things -- ha d to change my tactic. And I put in front of them an authentic experience that allowed them to l earn for themselves. I didn't tell them what to do or how to do it. I posed a problem in front of t hem, which was to put on an election forum for their own community.They produced fliers. They called offices. They checked schedules. They were meeting with s ecretaries. They produced an election forum booklet for the entire town to learn more about th eir candidates. They invited everyone into the school for an evening of conversation about go vernment and politics and whether or not the streets were done well, and really had this robus t experiential learning. The older teachers -- more experienced -- looked at me and went, "Oh, there she is. That's so cute. She's trying to get that done." (Laughter) "She doesn't know what she's in for." But I knew that the kids would show up, and I believed it, and I told them every week what I expected out of them. And that night, all 90 kids -- dressed appropriately, doing th eir job, owning it. I had to just sit and watch. It was theirs. It was experiential. It was authentic. It meant something to them. And they will step up. From Kansas, I moved on to lovely Arizona , where I taught in Flagstaff for a number of years,this time with middle school students. Luckil y, I didn't have to teach them American government. Could teach them the more exciting topic of geography. Again, "thrilled" to learn.But what was interesting about this position I found my self in in Arizona, was I had this reallyextraordinarily eclectic group of kids to work with in a tru ly public school, and we got to have these moments where we would get these opportunities. And one opportunity was we got to go and meet Paul Rusesabagina, which is the gentleman t hat the movie "Hotel Rwanda"is based after. And he was going to speak at the high school next door to us. We could walk th ere. We didn't even have to pay for the buses. There was no expense cost. Perfect field trip. T he problem then becomes how do you take seventh- and eighth-graders to a talk about genoc ide and deal with the subject in a way that is responsible and respectful, and they know what t o do with it. And so we chose to look at Paul Rusesabagina as an example of a gentleman wh o singularly used his life to do something positive. I then challenged the kids to identify someo ne in their own life, or in their own story, or in their own world, that they could identify that had done a similar thing. I asked them to produce a little movie about it. It's the first time we'd don e this. Nobody really knew how to make these little movies on thecomputer, but they were into it. And I asked them to put their own voice over it. It was the mos t awesome moment of revelation that when you ask kids to use their own voice and ask them to speak for themselves, what they're willing to share. The last question of the assignment is: how do you plan to use your life to positively impact other people? The things that kids will say when you ask them and take the time to listen is extraordinary.Fast-forward to Pennsylvania, where I find myself today. I teach at the Science Leadership Ac ademy, which is a partnership school between the Franklin Institute and the school district of Philadelphia. We are a nine through 12 public school, but we do school quite differently. I mov ed there primarily to be part of a learning environment that validated the way that I knew that k ids learned, and that really wanted to investigate what was possible when you are willing to let go of some of the paradigms of the past, of information scarcity when my grandmother was in school and when my father was in school and even when I was in school,and to a moment w hen we have information surplus. So what do you do when the information is all around you? Why do you have kids come to school if they no longer have to come there to get the informati on?In Philadelphia we have a one-to-one laptop program, so the kids are bringing in laptops with t hem everyday, taking them home, getting access to information. And here's the thing that you need to get comfortable with when you've given the tool to acquire information to students, is t hat you have to be comfortable with this idea of allowing kids to fail as part of the learning pro cess. We deal right now in the educational landscape with an infatuation with the culture of on e right answer that can be properly bubbled on the average multiple choice test, and I am her e to share with you: it is not learning. That is the absolute wrong thing to ask, to tell kids to ne ver be wrong. To ask them to always have the right answer doesn't allow them to learn. So we did this project, and this is one of the artifacts of the project. I almost never show them off bec ause of the issue of the idea of failure.My students produced these info-graphics as a result of a unit that we decided to do at the en d of the year responding to the oil spill. I asked them to take the examples that we were seein g of the info-graphics that existed in a lot of mass media, and take a look at what were the inte resting components of it, and produce one for themselves of a different man-made disaster fro m American history. And they had certain criteria to do it. They were a little uncomfortable with it, because we'd never done this before, and they didn't know exactly how to do it. They can t alk -- they're very smooth, and they can write very, very well, but asking them to communicate ideas in a different way was a little uncomfortable for them. But I gave them the room to just d o the thing. Go create. Go figure it out. Let's see what we can do. Andthe student that persistently turns out the best visual product did not disappoint. This was done in like two or three days. And this is the work of the student that consistently did it. And whe n I sat the students down, I said, "Who's got the best one?" And they immediately went, "Ther e it is." Didn't read anything. "There it is." And I said, "Well what makes itgreat?"And they're like, "Oh, the design's good, and he's using good color. And there's some .. . " And they went through all that we processed out loud. And I said, "Go read it." And they're li ke, "Oh, that one wasn't so awesome." And then we went to another one -- it didn't have great visuals, but it had great information -- and spent an hour talking about the learning process,because it wasn't about whether or not it was perfect, or whether or not it was what I could create. It asked them to create for themselves, and it allowed them to fail, process, lear n from.And when we do another round of this in my class this year, they will do better this time ,because learning has to include an amount of failure, because failure is instructional in the pr ocess.There are a million pictures that I could click through here, and had to choose carefully -- this i s one of my favorites -- of students learning, of what learning can look like in a landscape whe re we let go of the idea that kids have to come to school to get the information, but instead, as k them what they can do with it. Ask them really interesting questions. They will not disappoint. Ask them to go to places, to see things for themselves, to actually experience the l earning, to play, to inquire. This is one of my favorite photos, because this was taken on Tues day, when I asked the students to go to the polls. This is Robbie, and this was his first day of v oting, and he wanted to share that with everybody and do that. But this is learning too, becaus e we asked them to go out into real spaces.The main point is that, if we continue to look at education as if it's about coming to school to g et the information and not about experiential learning, empowering student voice and embraci ng failure, we're missing the mark. And everything that everybody is talking about today isn't p ossible if we keep having an educational system that does not value these qualities, because we won't get there with a standardized test, and we won't get there with a culture of one right answer. We know how to do this better, and it's time to do better.坎迪张：在我死之前，我想......There are a lot of ways the people around us can help improve our lives.We don’t bump into every neighbor,so a lot of wisdom nerver gets passed on,though we do share the same public spaces.So over the past few years,I’ve tried ways to share more with my neighbors in public space,using simple tools like stickers,stencils and chalk.And these projects came from questions I had,like,how much are my nerghbors paying for their apartments?How can we lend and borrow more things without knocking on each other’s doors at a bad time?How can we share more memories of our abandoned buildings,and gain a better understanding of our landscape?And how can we share more of our hopes for our vacant storefronts,so our communities can reflect our needs and dreams today?Now I live in New Orleans,and I am in love with New Orleans.My soul is always soothed by the giant live oak trees,shading lovers,drunks and dreamers for hundreds of years,and I trust a city that always makes way for music.I feel like every time someone sneezes,New Orleans has a parade.The city has some of the most beautiful architecture in the world,but it also has one of the highest amounts of abandoned properties in America.I live near this house,and I thought about how I could make it a nicer space for my neighborhood,and I also thought about something that changed my life forever.In 2009,I lost someone I loves very much.Her name is Joan,and she was a mother to me and her death was sudden and unexpected.And I thought about death a lot,this made feel deep gratitude for the time I’ve ahd,brought clarity to the things that are meaningful to my life now.But I struggle to maitain this perspective in my daily life,I feel like it’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day,and forget what really matters to you.So with help from old and new friends,I turned the side of this abandoned house into a giant chalkboard and strenciled it with afill-in-the-blank sentence:”Before I die,I want to...”So anyone walking by can pick up a piece of chalk,reflect on their lives,and share their personal aspirations in public space.I didn’t know what to expect from this experiment,but by the next day,the wall was entirely filled out,and it kept growing.And I like to share a few things that people wrote on this wall.”Before I die,I want to tried for piracy.”"Before I die, I want to straddle the International Date Line.""Before I die, I want to sing for millions.""Before I die, I want to live off the grid.""Before I die,I want to hold her,onr more time.""Before I die, I want to be someone's cavalry.""Before I die, I want to be completely myself."So this neglected space became a constructive one,and people’s hopes and dreams made me laugh out loud,tear up,and they consoled me during my own tough times.It’s anout knowing you’re not alone.It’s about understanding our neighbors in new and enlightening ways.It’s about making space for reflection and contemplation,and remembering what really matters most to us as we grow and change.I made this last year,and started receiving hunderds of messages from passionate people who want to make a wall with their community,so my civic center colleagues and I made a tool kit,and now wlls have made in countries around the world,including Kazakhstan,South Africa,Australia,Argentina and beyond.Together,we’ve shown how powerful our public spaces can be if we’re given the oportunity to have a voice and share more with one another.Two of the most valuable we have are time and our relationships with other people.In our age of increasing distractions,it's more important than ever to findways to maintain perspective and remember that life is brief and tender.Death is something that we're often discouraged to talk about or even think about, but I've realized that preparing for death is one of the most empowering things you can do.Thinking about death clarifies your life.Our shared spaces can better reflect what matters to us as individuals and as a community,and with more ways to share our hopes, fears and stories,the people around us can not only help us make better places, they can help us lead better lives.Thank you.bump into 无意中遇到、碰到Stencil n.展板，蜡纸vacant adj.空虚的，空闲的，茫然的Storefront n.店面New Orleans 新奥尔良soothed v.安慰，使平静oak tree 橡树Clarity n.清楚，透明Perspective n.观点，心态get caught up 被卷入，困住day-to-day adj.日常的be tried 受审，被审判Piracy n.海盗行为，盗版straddle n./v.跨越，骑International Date Line 国际日界线live off the grid 靠...生活，隐居Cavalry n.骑士enlightening adj.使人领悟，有启发作用的Contemplation n.沉思，注视civic adj.市民的Kazakhstan 哈萨克斯坦Argentina 阿根廷Distraction n.干扰，分心tender adj.温柔的，脆弱。

A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut, so I decided to follow in the footsteps of the great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock, and try something new for 30 days. The idea is actually pretty simple. Think about something you've always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days. It turns out, 30 days is just about the right amount of time to add a new habit or subtract减去扣掉 a habit -- like watching the news -- from your life.
There's a few things I learned while doing these 30-day challenges. The first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable.显著的难忘的 This was part of a challenge I did to take a picture every day for a month. And I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing that day. I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder
30-day challenges, my self-confidence grew. I went from
desk-dwelling computer nerd电脑迷 to the kind of guy who bikes to work -- for fun. Even last year, I ended up hiking up起吊Mt. Kilimanjaro乞力马扎罗山, the highest mountain in Africa. I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30-day challenges.
I also figured out解决算出 that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. Have you ever wanted to write a novel? Every November, tens of thousands of people try to
write their own 50,000-word novel from scratch白手起家 in 30 days. It turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month. So I did. By the way, the secret is not to go to sleep until you've written your words for the day. You might be sleep-deprived 缺少睡眠, but you'll finish your novel. Now is my book the next great American novel? No. I wrote it in a month.It's awful. But for the rest of my life, if I meet John Hodgman at a TED party, I don't have to say, "I'm a computer scientist." No, no, if I want to, I can say, "I'm a novelist."
(Laughter)
So here's one last thing I'd like to mention. I learned that when I made small, sustainable可以忍受的足以支撑的changes, things I could keep doing, they were more likely to stick. There's nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges. In fact, they're a ton of大量的fun. But they're less likely to stick. When I gave up sugar for 30 days, day 31 looked like this.
(Laughter)
So here's my question to you: What are you waiting for? I guarantee you the next 30 daysare going to pass whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days.
Thanks.
(Applause)。
