| 17 | I got my master's in clinical psychology and spent almost the last decade studying | 我得到了我的硕士 临床心理学 并花了近十年学习 |
| 18 | the science of creativity. | 创造力的科学 |
| 19 | And what I discovered surprised me because creativity isn't just a talent. | 我发现的东西让我惊讶 因为创造力不仅仅是天赋 |

| 24 | That's because when we play, especially as adults, we unlock this unique type of flourishing. | 这是因为当我们演奏的时候, 特别是作为成年人, 我们解开了这种独特的繁荣类型。 |
| 25 | We have deeper fulfillment and stronger resilience and even more original ideas. | 我们有更深入的实现,更强的复原力,甚至更富有创意的想法。 |
| 26 | But the type of play that I'm talking about is probably not what we're all imagining. | 但我所说的游戏类型 可能不是我们都想象的那样 |
| 27 | It's not just being silly or childlike or even starting up a brand new hobby. | 不仅仅是愚蠢或幼稚 甚至开始新的爱好 |
| 28 | We've reduced play to be this cherry on top of an already good life. | 我们已经少了玩儿 成为这个樱桃 在已经好的生活之上。 |
| 29 | But from a scientific perspective, it is much more fundamental than that. | 但从科学的角度来看,它比这要重要得多。 |

| 36 | So much so that upwards of 70% of adults around the world today have stopped doing it. | 所以今天全世界70%的成年人 都不再这样做了。 |

| 38 | relationship with play. | 与游戏的关系。 |
| 39 | And I kept hearing the same thing over and over. | 我一遍又一遍地听到同样的声音 |
| 40 | They told me they didn't have the time or the talent or the right tools to do it anymore. | 他们告诉我,他们没有时间,没有天赋,也没有合适的工具去做了. |
| 41 | And when they finally did, it wasn't play. | 而当他们最终做到了, 这不是玩。 |

| 47 | We've systematically removed everything that makes play what it is. | 我们已经系统移除了一切 使游戏成为它是什么。 |
| 48 | The spontaneity, the freedom, the wonder from all parts of adult life and replaced it with | 自发性 自由 成人生活中所有部分的奇迹 |
| 49 | efficiency and achievement. | 效率和成就。 |

| 51 | Things like our capacity to adapt and imagine and even feel alive. | 诸如我们适应和想象的能力 甚至是活着的能力 |

| 54 | But over time, without play, stress can compound and then burnout can become chronic. | 但随着时间的推移,如果没有游戏,压力会增加,然后燃烧会变成慢性. |

| 57 | But we can change this, though, not even just for ourselves, but for future generations, too. | 但我们可以改变这一点, 不仅为我们自己, 而且为子孙后代。 |
| 58 | Because play isn't something we age out of. | 因为游戏不是我们老掉牙的 |

| 61 | And how we go about doing that is much simpler and more expansive than you'd think. | 而我们如何去做到这一点 比你想象的简单得多, 更宽广。 |

| 80 | And the three places to start are during work, before sleep, and in public. | 而三个开始的地方是工作期间,睡觉前,和公开. |
| 81 | Let's start at work, because most of us get stuck in this linear task-oriented thinking, | 让我们从工作开始,因为我们大多数人 被困在这个线性的任务导向思维, |
| 82 | churning through to-dos and in back-to-back meetings. | 通过待办事宜和背靠背的会议。 |
