I live in New York, and I've been working in advertising

過去簡單式

I worked a lot of late nights. I worked a lot of weekends,

我常常沒日沒夜地工作，週末也很常加班

and I found myself never having time for all the projects

And one day I was at work and I saw a talk

我看到施德明 (Stefan Sagmeister) 在 TED 上的演講

and it was called "The power of time off,"

題為《休假的力量》("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,

好去進行自己的創意計畫那讓我靈機一動

and I just said, "I have to do that. I have to take a year off.

我心想：「我也要這樣做，我要休一年的假

I need to take time to travel and spend time with my family

So the first of those projects ended up being

something I called "One Second Every Day."

就是這個我取名為「每日一秒」的計劃

Basically I'm recording one second of every day of my life

基本上，就是錄下我每天生活中的一秒

chronologically compiling these one-second

tiny slices of my life into one single continuous video

將我生命中的片刻組成一部連貫的影片

until, you know, I can't record them anymore.

I hate not remembering things that I've done in the past.

我討厭忘記以前自己所做過的事

There's all these things that I've done with my life

有好一些事情是我盡心盡力去做的

unless someone brings it up, and sometimes I think,

除非有人提起有時候我可能還會想說

And something that I realized early on in the project

而在這個計劃剛開始的時候我就發現

was that if I wasn't doing anything interesting,

如果我當天沒做什麼有趣的事情

I would probably forget to record the video.

So the day -- the first time that I forgot, it really hurt me,

所以那天 -- 當我第一次忘記拍攝的時候我真的很難過

because it's something that I really wanted to --

from the moment that I turned 30, I wanted

打從我踏入 30 歲的那刻我就想要

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

這個想法就好像烙印在我腦海裡似的

我就會有一部長達五小時的影片

When I turn 40, I'll have a one-hour video

而當我四十歲的時候我就有一部片長一小時的影片

invigorated me day-to-day, when I wake up,

to try and do something interesting with my day.

並嘗試去做些有趣的事好讓那天不會白白度過

Now, one of the things that I have issues with is that,

說到這裏其中我遇到的一個問題是

and visualization is the way to trigger memory.

而視覺畫面是喚醒記憶的絕佳辦法

You know, this project for me is a way for me

to bridge that gap and remember everything that I've done.

是能將空白填補起來好記住我曾經做過的所有事情

Even just this one second allows me to remember

It's difficult, sometimes, to pick that one second.

On a good day, I'll have maybe three or four seconds

在美好的一天裡頭可能會有三到四秒

but I'll just have to narrow it down to one,

but even narrowing it down to that one allows me

但即使只剩下一秒也還是能讓我

It's also kind of a protest, a personal protest,

這個做法也是一種抗議純屬個人想法

against the culture we have now where people

just are at concerts with their cell phones out

那就是當人們觀賞演唱會的時候大家都只顧拿着手機

recording the whole concert, and they're disturbing you.

攝錄整場演唱會但那其實會干擾到人

They're watching the concert through their cell phone.

I hate that. I admittedly used to be that guy a little bit,

我討厭這樣我承認我曾經也是如此

back in the day, and I've decided that the best way

for me to still capture and keep a visual memory of my life

要以畫面來紀錄我人生中的最佳方式

and not be that person, is to just record that one second

並且不做那個反面教材的人就是只錄下那一秒

that will allow me to trigger that memory of,

"Yeah, that concert was amazing. I really loved that concert."

「沒錯，那場演唱會很精采，我很喜歡那場演唱會。」

即使只是浮光掠影的那一秒就已經足夠

I was on a three-month road trip this summer.

今年夏天，我踏上三個月的駕車之旅

It was something that I've been dreaming about doing my whole life,

那是我人生中一直夢寐以求的事

and just figuring out where to go the next day,

並且在當天才知道隔天要前往的目的地

I actually ran out, I spent too much money on my road trip

我其實耗盡了所有積蓄因為這一路上的開支太多了

for the savings that I had to take my year off,

原來打算用來放假一年的儲蓄都不夠用

so I had to, I went to Seattle and I spent some time

所以我去了一趟西雅圖我必須花一些時間

with friends working on a really neat project.

與朋友一起接了一個條件不錯的案子來做

One of the reasons that I took my year off was to spend more time with my family,

當初我休假一年的其中一個原因就是想抽空多陪伴家人

and this really tragic thing happened where

而這當中也發生了件不幸的事情

her intestine suddenly strangled one day,

and she was, she was in really bad shape.

and I was there with my brother every day.

我每天都跟我兄弟在那裏一起守候

It helped me realize something else during this project,

這件事也讓我在這個計劃裡有了另一個體悟

is that recording that one second on a really bad day

那就是要在過得很糟的一天錄下那一秒

It's not -- we tend to take our cameras out when we're doing awesome things.

因為那不像 -- 當我們在做些很酷的事情時我們自然而然地會想拿起鏡頭

Or we're, "Oh, yeah, this party, let me take a picture."

或是想說：「噢，對了這派對很棒，來拍張照吧。」

But we rarely do that when we're having a bad day,

當某天可能過得不太好或是發生了什麼很糟的事情時
