　　So itamp。s 1969, New York City, third grade music class, and our teacher brings us into a room with nothing but a piano and chairs. And one by one, he calls us up, and he plays middle C, and he asks us to sing it.
　　1969年，紐約市，三年級的音樂課上，老師帶我們走進一個只有一架鋼琴和幾把椅子的房間。
　　(Singing) And youamp。re either instructed to go to the right of the room or the left side of the room.
　　(唱歌)接著你根據(jù)指示要么走到房間右邊，要么走到左邊。
　　And none of us ever received another music class again in elementary school. An in club and an out club was established, and I didnamp。t even know what the gating test was in the moment.
　　從那以后一直到小學(xué)畢業(yè)，我們再也沒有上過音樂課。
　　A few years later, English class ...
　　幾年之后，英語課……。
　　first paper of a new semester, and I get the paper back, and itamp。s C+, with the ment, amp。Good as can be expected.amp。
　　新學(xué)期的第一篇作文批改后下發(fā)了，我拿回來一看，成績是C+，還有一條評語，”。
　　Now, honestly, I didnamp。t mind a C+. I was just happy it wasnamp。t a C or a D. But the amp。good as can be expectedamp。 ment ... even at that young age, it didnamp。t seem right. It seemed somehow limiting.
　　其實坦白說，我并不介意得了C+。但是”。這個評語……。即便是在童年時期，也讓我覺得不太舒服。
　　Now, how many people here have had an experience similar to that, either at school or the workplace? Weamp。re not alone.
　　那么，在座的有多少人在學(xué)?；蛘吖ぷ鲌鏊羞^相似的經(jīng)歷?看來并不是只有我們。
　　But school was torture for me. As someone who didnamp。t have a natural proclivity for academics, and my teachers never seemed to understand me, I didnamp。t know how to navigate schools and schools didnamp。t know what to do with me.
　　但學(xué)校對我來說是一種折磨。
　　So I started to ask the question, even back then, if these environments didnamp。t know what to do with people who didnamp。t fit a standard mold, why werenamp。t we reshaping the environments to take advantage of peopleamp。s strengths? What Iamp。ve e to believe is that we need to cultivate safe and conducive conditions for new and innovative ideas to evolve and thrive.
　　所以我開始問這個問題，甚至年少時就有了這個想法，如果這些環(huán)境不知道如何包容那些不適應(yīng)標準模式的人，為什么我們不重新塑造這些環(huán)境來充分利用人們各自的優(yōu)勢?我逐漸開始相信，為了使創(chuàng)新的思想發(fā)展和繁榮，我們需要創(chuàng)造安全有利的環(huán)境。39。39。所以，在這之中我想問的是，有沒有什么方法可以使創(chuàng)新變得更容易，更頻繁?有沒有一種方法可以使那些看似隨機、偶然發(fā)生的頓悟時刻和突破，刻意地、頻繁地發(fā)生?
　　When we started Blue Man Group in 1988, we had never done an offBroadway show before. Weamp。d actually done almost not heater. But we knew what we were passionate about, and it was a whole series of things that we had never seen onstage before, things like art and pop culture and technology and sociology and anthropology and percussion and edy and following your bliss.
　　當1988年創(chuàng)立藍人樂隊之前，
