Dialogue: 0,0:00:11.24,0:00:14.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Like it's this thing that's supposed\Nto make you feel better.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:14.60,0:00:15.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But I was thinking --
Dialogue: 0,0:00:15.80,0:00:21.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,picturing all of you naked in 2018\Nfeels kind of weird and wrong.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:21.33,0:00:24.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Like, we're working really hard\Non moving past stuff like that,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:24.37,0:00:28.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so we need a new method of dealing\Nwith if you get nervous onstage.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.13,0:00:31.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I realized that what I'd really like
Dialogue: 0,0:00:31.46,0:00:35.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that I can look at you as much\Nas you're looking at me --
Dialogue: 0,0:00:35.55,0:00:37.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,just to even things out a little bit.
Dialogue: 0,0:00:37.89,0:00:40.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So if I had way more eyeballs,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:40.63,0:00:43.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,then we'd all be really\Ncomfortable, right?
Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.49,0:00:45.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So in preparation for this talk,
Dialogue: 0,0:00:45.57,0:00:47.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I made myself a shirt.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:06.82,0:01:09.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And being able to look at you\Nas much as you're looking at me
Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.95,0:01:12.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is actually only half\Nof the reason I made this.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:12.26,0:01:14.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The other half is being able to do this.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.06,0:01:18.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I do a lot of things like this.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:18.73,0:01:21.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I see a problem and I invent\Nsome sort of solution to it.

Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.68,0:01:26.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Like, it's this thing we all have to do,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.62,0:01:27.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it's kind of boring,
Dialogue: 0,0:01:27.70,0:01:29.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and nobody really likes it.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:29.47,0:01:31.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,If there were any\Nseven-year-olds in the audience,

Dialogue: 0,0:02:07.20,0:02:11.77,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So my toothbrush helmet is recommended\Nby zero out of 10 dentists,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.77,0:02:15.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it definitely did not\Nrevolutionize the world of dentistry,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:15.90,0:02:19.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it did completely change my life
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.10,0:02:22.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because I finished making this toothbrush\Nhelmet three years ago,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:22.55,0:02:24.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and after I finished making it,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:24.08,0:02:25.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I went into my living room
Dialogue: 0,0:02:25.46,0:02:26.90,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I put up a camera,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.90,0:02:29.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I filmed a seven-second\Nclip of it working.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.98,0:02:30.98,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And by now,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.98,0:02:34.07,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this is a pretty standard\Nmodern-day fairy tale

Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.74,0:02:57.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because as we all know,
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.52,0:03:01.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the easiest way to be\Nat the top of your field
Dialogue: 0,0:03:01.14,0:03:03.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is to choose a very small field.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:05.72,0:03:09.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,(Applause)
Dialogue: 0,0:03:09.98,0:03:13.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I run a YouTube channel\Nabout my machines,

Dialogue: 0,0:03:55.14,0:03:57.18,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I graduated at the top of my year.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.31,0:03:58.66,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,On the flip side of that,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:58.66,0:04:01.86,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I struggled with very severe\Nperformance anxiety.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:02.29,0:04:05.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Here's an email I sent\Nto my brother around that time.

Dialogue: 0,0:04:19.79,0:04:21.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The thing I'm writing about in the email,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:21.85,0:04:24.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the thing I'm so upset about,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:24.14,0:04:26.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is that I got a B on a math test.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:27.60,0:04:30.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So something obviously happened\Nbetween here and here.

Dialogue: 0,0:04:39.73,0:04:41.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,beautful time indeed.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:41.17,0:04:42.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But moreover,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:42.56,0:04:44.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I got interested in building robots,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:44.74,0:04:47.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and I wanted to teach myself\Nabout hardware.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:48.01,0:04:49.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,But building things with hardware,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:49.64,0:04:51.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,especially if you're teaching yourself,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:51.52,0:04:53.63,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is something that's really\Ndifficult to do.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:53.84,0:04:55.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It has a high likelihood of failure,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:55.85,0:04:56.85,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and moreover,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.85,0:04:59.64,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it has a high likelihood\Nof making you feel stupid.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:59.82,0:05:02.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that was my biggest fear at the time.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.81,0:05:08.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I came up with a setup that would\Nguarantee success 100 percent of the time.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:09.02,0:05:10.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,With my setup,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.02,0:05:12.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it would be nearly impossible to fail.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:12.45,0:05:15.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And that was that instead\Nof trying to succeed,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:15.47,0:05:18.01,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I was going to try to build\Nthings that would fail.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:19.44,0:05:21.71,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And even though I didn't\Nrealize it at the time,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:21.71,0:05:25.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,building stupid things\Nwas actually quite smart,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:25.72,0:05:28.47,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,because as I kept on\Nlearning about hardware,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:28.47,0:05:29.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,for the first time in my life,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:29.93,0:05:32.53,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I did not have to deal\Nwith my performance anxiety.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.98,0:05:36.68,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And as soon as I removed\Nall pressure and expectations from myself,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:36.68,0:05:40.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that pressure quickly\Ngot replaced by enthusiasm,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.20,0:05:42.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and it allowed me to just play.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:42.99,0:05:44.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So as an inventor,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:44.14,0:05:46.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'm interested in things\Nthat people struggle with.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:46.60,0:05:50.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It can be small things or big things\Nor medium-sized things,
Dialogue: 0,0:05:50.37,0:05:54.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and something like giving a TED talk\Npresents this whole new set of problems

Dialogue: 0,0:06:01.60,0:06:03.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So before I came here,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:03.23,0:06:06.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I sat down and I thought of some\Nof the potential problems I might have
