you're going to go out for a walk
hogy csak sétálnak egyet,
a Sixtus-kápolnával térnek vissza.
in your left hand.
melyik fázisára koncentráltunk?
process did we focus on?
coming up with a new idea.
új ötlet születésére.
with a variety of people.
különböző emberekkel.
indoors or outdoors.
found the same conclusion.
következtetésre jutott.
about one of them today.
was alternate uses.
az alternatív felhasználás volt.
ways to use common everyday objects
alternatív felhasználásával álljanak elő,
what else would you do with a key,
for opening up a lock?
as a third eyeball for a giraffe, right?
harmadik szemeként, nem igaz?
kind of new. But is it creative?
De vajon kreatív-e?
as many ideas as they could,
that a lot of people go with
amelyet sok ember használ:
it has to be realistic,
gyakorlatiasnak kell lennie.
a key as an eyeball.
szemgolyóként használni.
is that nobody had to have said it.
senkinek sem kellett hangsúlyozni.
that we surveyed could have said it.
senki sem említette volna.
a key to scratch somebody's car,
hogy összekarcoljuk valaki autóját,
you didn't get credit for it.
nem kaptunk érte pontot.
and it were a murder mystery,
és rejtélyes gyilkosságról lenne szó,
of the murderer into the ground
because it's appropriate and it's novel.
with ideas while you were seated
with different objects.
különböző tárgyakkal.
while walking on a treadmill.
a futópadon gyalogolt.
and this is interesting --
and then they sat.
másodszor pedig ült.
that sat together for the first test,
about 20 creative ideas per person.
kb. 20 kreatív ötlettel állt elő.
on the treadmill
on a treadmill in a windowless room.
lévő futópadon sétáltak.
nem teljesítettek jobban,
test didn't get any better;
and then went on the treadmill
majd futópadra pattantak,
walking on the treadmill
is that you should go for a walk
hogy sétálniuk kellene egyet
and just start brainstorming right away.
aztán egyből lehet ötletelni.
the best effect possible.
leghatékonyabbá teszik.
or a topic to brainstorm.
vagy problémáról szeretnének ötletelni.
and all of a sudden,
amelyről előtte már gondolkoztak.
you're thinking about ahead of time.
tekintettek az ötletelésre,
brainstorming a different perspective
is that if I were running,
would be to stop running, so ...
hogy meg kéne állni, úgyhogy...
is a comfortable pace, good.
a kényelmes tempó, akkor jó.
activity is not taking a lot of attention.
igénylő testmozgással működik.
pace is a good choice.
as many ideas as you can.
ötlettel szeretnének előállni.
is to not lock on that first idea.
hogy ne ragadjanak le az első ötletnél.
amíg nem találnak egy-két igazán jót.
until you pick one or two to pursue.
to write them down,
and record through your phone
és felvehetik magukat telefonnal,
a creative conversation, right?
your idea down is already a filter.
"Is this good enough to write down?"
"Érdemes ezt leírnom?"
mérlegelni ráérnek később.
record them and think about them later.
and that idea's not coming to you,
on a break right now,
ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Marily Oppezzo - Behavioral and learning scientistMarily Oppezzo studies how the movement of the body can affect the movement of the mind.
Why you should listen
Inheriting an energetic passion for health from her dad, Marily Oppezzo's past research has investigated ways to use the world to motivate healthy brains and healthy behaviors. She is currently an Instructor of Medicine at the Stanford Prevention Research Center. She is also working with Dr. Dan Schwartz to find out if fidgeting in the classroom may be a desirable cognitive tool rather than an irritating hallmark of inattention, and she's working with Dr. Margaret Neale and Dr. Jodi Prochaska to discover how walking may improve negotiation outcomes.
Along her way, Oppezzo has collected several souvenir lessons from her range of work and educational experiences:
Bartending:
1. The environment has incredible power to elicit and shape behaviors; and
2. Everyone has at least one interesting story in them.
Dietetics:
1. Biochemistry is fascinating;
2. We grant food immense powers. It can be simultaneously viewed as a vehicle of health, morality, social bonding, government conspiracy, inequality and pleasure; and
3. A plateful of knowledge doesn't always help the medicine go down.
Teaching / education:
1. Watching people learn, grow, and change is a deep gratification unique to teaching and behavior change work; and
2. Learning, like behavior change, takes distributed practice to become part of you. (We can’t binge-watch knowledge any more than we should pull flossing all-nighters).
Cardiac rehab:
1. Everyone has the capacity to be an inspiration and in surprising, unexpected ways; and
2. Health becomes incredibly valuable once you experience a true loss of it; and
3. Exercise is the ultimate multitasker: it can heal the brain, the heart and the body all at once.
