I said, on the TED stage? Are you kidding?

I'm going to get on a stage and admit my daughter was clinging to my leg? 我

And you said yes, because if you want to talk about getting more women into leadership roles,you have to be honest about how hard it is.
而你說是的， 因為如果我要談到 為更多女性爭取領導職位就必須坦誠那是多么艱難的。
And I did. And I think that's a really important part of the journey.
所以我講了這個故事 我想這真是歷程中至關重要的部分。
The same thing happened when I wrote my book. I started writing the book. I wrote a first chapter,I thought it was fabulous. It was chock-full of data and figures.
當我寫書時也發生過同樣的事 我開始寫書，寫了第一章。我覺得它真的很棒里面全是數據和圖表。
I had three pages on matrilineal Maasai tribes, and their sociological patterns.
我寫了三頁紙有關母系的馬賽部落 以及她們的社會形態。
My husband read it and he was like, this is like eating your Wheaties.
我丈夫讀了之后，他說讀起來就跟Wheaties 牌麥片一樣。
No one-and I apologize to Wheaties if there's someone-no one, no one will read this book.
沒有人會,如果在座有 Wheaties 員工我先道歉，沒人，沒有人會讀這本書。
And I realized through the process that I had to be more honest and more open,and I had to tell my stories. My stories of still not feeling as self-confident as I should.
從中我意識到我必須更真實也更坦誠必須講自己的故事，在很多情況下自信心不足的的故事。

And part of my journey, starting on this stage, going to Lean In, going to the foundation, is all about being more open and honest about those challenges.

PM: I think that one of the most striking parts about the book,
我認為這本書 最引人注目的其中一點。
and in my opinion, one of the reasons it's hit such a nerve and is resonating around the world,is that you are personal in the book, and that you do make it clear that.
在我看來，它能引起如此大的轟動、 在全世界得到共鳴的其中一個原因就是你寫的是自己 你把這點寫得很清楚。
while you've observed some things that are very important for other women to know, that you've had the same challenges that many others of us have.
而你看到一些東西 對于其他女性來說也是很重要的。當你面對同樣的挑戰 就和我們面對的一樣。
as you faced the hurdles and the barriers and possibly the people who don't believe the same.
你所面對的關卡和障礙 或許其他人并不相信同樣的東西。
So talk about that process: deciding you'd go public with the private part, and then you would also put yourself in the position of something of an expert on how to resolve those challenges.
那么說說這個過程吧 首先決定公開談論個人的經歷然后從專家的角度去看看如何解決那些挑戰。
