Soafewyearsago,Ididsomethingreallybrave,orsomewouldsayreallystupid.IranforCongress.几年前,我做了一些非常勇敢的事,或许有些人会说很愚蠢的事。我参选国会议员.Foryears,Ihadexistedsafelybehindthescenesinpoliticsasafundraiser,asanorganizer,butinmyheart,Ialwayswantedtorun.Thesittingcongresswomanhadbeeninmydistrictsince1992.Shehadneverlostarace,andnoonehadreallyevenrunagainstherinaDemocraticprimary.Butinmymind,thiswasmywaytomakeadifference,todisruptthestatusquo.Thepolls,however,toldaverydifferentstory.MypollsterstoldmethatIwascrazytorun,thattherewasnowaythatIcouldwin.很多年来,我安全地存在于政治活动背后作为资金筹集人,作为组织者,但我的内心,我一直希望参选。我所在选区的国会议员女士从1992年起担任这个职务。她从未输过一场选战,没有人真正认真地在民主选举中与她竞争。但在我心中,这就是我创造不同的方式,改变现状。民意调查,然而,显示出完全不同的故事。我的民调专家告诉我我要参选简直疯了,我不可能会赢。ButIrananyway,andin2012,IbecameanupstartinaNewYorkCitycongressionalrace.IsworeIwasgoingtowin.IhadtheendorsementfromtheNewYorkDailyNews,theWallStreetJournalsnappedpicturesofmeonelectionday,andCNBCcalleditoneofthehottestracesinthecountry.IraisedmoneyfromeveryoneIknew,includingIndianauntiesthatwerejustsohappyanIndiangirlwasrunning.Butonelectionday,thepollswereright,andIonlygot19percentofthevote,andthesamepapersthatsaidIwasarisingpoliticalstarnowsaidIwasted1.3milliondollarson6,321votes.Don'tdothemath.Itwashumiliating.但我还是参选了,在2012年,我成了崛起的新秀参选纽约市国会竞选。我发誓我会赢。我得到了《纽约每日新闻》的认可,《华尔街日报》刊登了我在选举日的照片,美国全国广播公司财经频道称之为全国范围内最热的选战。我从我认识的每个人那里筹钱,包括印度阿姨们她们很高兴一个印度女生参选。但选举日,民调是对的,我只拿到了19%的选票,那张曾称我为新兴政治明星的报纸现在却说我浪费了130万美金在6321张选票上。不要算数字。太丢脸了。Now,beforeyougetthewrongidea,thisisnotatalkabouttheimportanceoffailure.Norisitaboutleaningin.ItellyouthestoryofhowIranforCongressbecauseIwas33yearsoldanditwasthefirsttimeinmyentirelifethatIhaddonesomethingthatwastrulybrave,whereIdidn'tworryaboutbeingperfect.现在,在你们得到错误观点前,这不是一个讲述失败有多重要的演说。也不是说女孩要向前一步。我讲述的故事是我如何参选国会议员的因为我只有33岁这是我人生中第一次做出真正勇敢的事,没有担心完美。AndI'mnotalone:somanywomenItalktotellmethattheygravitatetowardscareersandprofessionsthattheyknowthey'regoingtobegreatin,thattheyknowthey'regoingtobeperfectin,andit'snowonderwhy.Mostgirlsaretaughttoavoidriskandfailure.We'retaughttosmilepretty,playitsafe,getallA's.Boys,ontheotherhand,aretaughttoplayrough,swinghigh,crawltothetopofthemonkeybarsandthenjustjumpoffheadfirst.Andbythetimethey'readults,whetherthey'renegotiatingaraiseorevenaskingsomeoneoutonadate,they'rehabituatedtotakeriskafterrisk.They'rerewardedforit.It'softensaidinSiliconValley,nooneeventakesyouseriouslyunlessyou'vehadtwofailedstart-ups.Inotherwords,we'reraisingourgirlstobeperfect,andwe'reraisingourboystobebrave.我不是一个人:太多女士曾告诉我她们多么被职业和专业吸引她们知道她们会做得很好,她们知道她们会非常完美,不足为奇。绝大多数的女孩被教育来规避风险和失败。我们被教育要有漂亮的微笑,不要冒险,课程拿全A。男孩们,另一方面来说,被教育成要更加勇猛,冲击更高的目标,爬上单杠最高的那层然后往下跳。当他们成长为大人,无论他们是在谈判加薪或是约某人出去玩,他们习惯于接受一个一个挑战。他们也为此得到回报奖赏。在矽谷有这样的说法,没人把你当回事除非你创业失败两次以上。另一句话说,我们教育培养女孩子们追求完美,我们教育培养男孩子们要勇敢。Somepeopleworryaboutourfederaldeficit,butI,Iworryaboutourbraverydeficit.Oureconomy,oursociety,we'rejustlosingoutbecausewe'renotraisingourgirlstobebrave.ThebraverydeficitiswhywomenareunderrepresentedinSTEM,inC-suites,inboardrooms,inCongress,andprettymucheverywhereyoulook.有些人担心我们的联邦赤字,但是,我担心我们的勇气赤字。我们的经济,我们的社会,我们在遭受损失,因为我们没有教育女孩子们要勇敢。勇气赤字就是为什么女性在科学技术工程数学(STEM)领域,在企业高管层,在董事会,在国会,在你所看到的任何地方都未被充分代表。Inthe1980s,psychologistCarolDwecklookedathowbrightfifthgradershandledanassignmentthatwastoodifficultforthem.Shefoundthatbrightgirlswerequicktogiveup.ThehighertheIQ,themorelikelytheyweretogiveup.Brightboys,ontheotherhand,foundthedifficultmaterialtobeachallenge.Theyfounditenergizing.Theyweremorelikelytoredoubletheirefforts.在1980年代,心理学家CarolDweck观察研究了五年级学生如何处理一项对他们来说太困难的作业。她发现,聪明的女孩们很快就放弃了。智商越高的女孩,放弃的可能性越大。男孩们,将困难的材料视为一个挑战。他们为此精力充沛。他们更倾向于双倍努力。What'sgoingon?Well,atthefifthgradelevel,girlsroutinelyoutperformboysineverysubject,includingmathandscience,soit'snotaquestionofability.Thedifferenceisinhowboysandgirlsapproachachallenge.Anditdoesn'tjustendinfifthgrade.AnHPreportfoundthatmenwillapplyforajobiftheymeetonly60percentofthequalifications,butwomen,womenwillapplyonlyiftheymeet100percentofthequalifications.100percent.Thisstudyisusuallyinvokedasevidencethat,well,womenneedalittlemoreconfidence.ButIthinkit'sevidencethatwomenhavebeensocializedtoaspiretoperfection,andthey'reoverlycautious.发生了什么?嗯,在五年级,女孩总的来说比男孩在各个科目的表现都要好,包括数学和科学,所以这不是能力的问题。不同点在于男孩和女孩如何看待挑战。这不止于五年级。一份惠普报告指出男性会递出工作申请如果他们只达到60%的招聘要求,而女性,女性只有在100%达到招聘要求的时候才会递出申请。百分之百。这份研究通常会被作为证据来说,嗯,女性需要更多的自信。但我认为这是证据说明女性长期被赋予追逐完美,她们太过谨慎了。Andevenwhenwe'reambitious,evenwhenwe'releaningin,thatsocializationofperfectionhascausedustotakelessrisksinourcareers.Andsothose600,000jobsthatareopenrightnowincomputingandtech,womenarebeingleftbehind,anditmeansoureconomyisbeingleftbehindonalltheinnovationandproblemswomenwouldsolveiftheyweresocializedtobebraveinsteadofsocializedtobeperfect.即使是当我们雄心勃勃,即使我们向前一步,社会对完美的要求让我们在职业发展中选择冒更小的风险。现在,在计算机和科技领域,有六十万个开放申请的工作职位,女性被抛在了后面,这也意味着我们的经济被远远抛在了后面女性可以解决的创新和难题如果女性被教育要勇敢而不是完美。Soin2012,Istartedacompanytoteachgirlstocode,andwhatIfoundisthatbyteachingthemtocodeIhadsocializedthemtobebrave.Coding,it'sanendlessprocessoftrialanderror,oftryingtogettherightcommandintherightplace,withsometimesjustasemi
