演讲题目:The little risks you can take to increase your luck.
核心观点：
运气，被定义为显然由偶然原因导致的成功或失败。‘’显然‘’，是其中的关键词。看起来运气具有偶然性，是因为我们极少看到所有的因素同时作用而产生好运。
但通过长期的观察，我发现，运气很少像闪电那样，孤立而戏剧性地降临。它更像风，不断地吹，有时静止不动，有时，则阵阵袭来，有时，它会从你根本想不到的方向吹来。
那么，如何捕捉幸运之风呢？做起来很简单，却并非人人知晓其中的奥妙。所以，我要分享三件你们可以做到的事情，去创建一面风帆，以捕捉幸运之风。
你要做的第一件事，就是改变你与自己的关系，去承担小小的风险，走出自己的舒适区。
你第二件要做的事情，就是改善与他人的关系。要明白，每个在旅途中帮助过你的人，在你实现目标的过程中，都起了非常重要作用。
第三件事，是你需要改变与想法的关系。主意并没有好坏之分，事实上，糟糕的想法产生的结果往往才是真正了不起的东西。
有时人们出生在糟糕的环境中，有时，运气像一道闪电，用奇妙或可怕的东西击中我们。但幸运之风总是在那里，如果你愿意承担一些风险，如果你愿意真正走出去，并心怀感激之情，愿意真正去正视各种想法，即使这些想法很疯狂，通过可能性的视角，你仍然可以打造一面更大的帆，去捕捉幸运之风。

For example, I might ask them to do an intellectual risk and try to tackle a problem they haven't tried before; or a social risk, talking to someone sitting next to them on the train; or an emotional risk, maybe telling someone they really care about how they feel.
例如，我可能会要求他们冒一下智力风险，设法解决一个他们以前从没尝试过的问题；或社会风险，在火车上与邻座的旅客交谈；或者是情绪上的风险，比如告诉真正在乎的人自己对他们的感受。

And anyone can do this, no matter where you are in your life, no matter where you are in the world -- even if you think you're the most unlucky person, you can do this by taking little risks that get you out of your comfort zone. You start building a sail to capture luck.
谁都能做到这一点，无论你在人生的哪个阶段，无论你身在何处，即使你认为自己是最倒霉的人，也可以通过承担小风险，把自己带出舒适区，开始打造那一叶捕捉好运的帆。

If you look around at the companies, theventures that are really innovative around you, the ones that we now take forgranted that have changed our life,
如果你环顾四周的公司，你周围那些真正创新的企业，那些我们坦然接受的改变我们生活的公司和企业，
the winds of luck are always there, and if you're willing to take some risks, if you're willing to really go out and show appreciation and willing to really look at ideas, even if they're crazy, through the lens of possibilities, you can build a bigger and bigger sail to catch the winds of luck.
幸运之风总是在那里，如果你愿意承担一些风险，如果你愿意真正走出去，并心怀感激之情，愿意真正去正视各种想法，即使这些想法很疯狂，通过可能性的视角，你仍然可以打造一面更大的帆，去捕捉幸运之风。
