Story Transcript:
Lv: Jelgavas Start-up Inkubatorā valdīja rosība.
En: The Jelgavas Start-up Incubator was buzzing with activity.
Lv: Telpas bija gaišas un moderni iekārtotas, un katrs stūrītis raisīja ideju plūsmu.
En: The rooms were bright and modernly furnished, and every corner sparked a flow of ideas.
Lv: Rudens lapas ārā rotājās zeltainos toņos, un tas tikai pastiprināja sajūtu, ka sākas kaut kas jauns un svarīgs.
En: The autumn leaves outside were adorned in golden hues, amplifying the feeling that something new and important was beginning.
Lv: Jāņa galvā to juta katra šūna – viņam bija jāprezentē sava ideja.
En: Jānis felt it in every cell of his body – he had to present his idea.
Lv: Spiediens bija milzīgs.
En: The pressure was immense.
Lv: Jānis, ar savu komandu, kas sastāvēja no Laimas un vēl pāris draugu, pavadīja tur daudzas dienas un naktis, gatavojot labāko iespējamo prezentāciju.
En: Jānis, along with his team, which consisted of Laima and a couple of other friends, spent many days and nights there, preparing the best possible presentation.
Lv: Laima allaž bija blakus, palīdzot un uzmundrinot Jāni.
En: Laima was always by his side, helping and encouraging Jānis.
Lv: Viņa bieži teica: "Jāni, tu vari, ticēsim tam kopā!"
En: She often said, "Jāni, tu vari, ticēsim tam kopā!" ("Jānis, you can do it, we’ll believe in it together!")
Lv: Bet stress darīja savu.
En: But the stress took its toll.
Lv: Jānis neļāva sev atpūsties, ēda maz un aizmirsta par atpūtu.
En: Jānis didn't allow himself to rest, ate little, and forgot about relaxation.
Lv: Viņš baidījās no izgāšanās.
En: He was afraid of failure.
Lv: Neviens netika tik tālu, lai neredzētu, ka Jānim ir grūti.
En: No one came close enough to see that Jānis was struggling.
Lv: Taču Laima vienmēr saprata.
En: However, Laima always understood.
Lv: Viņa raizējās un runāja par nepieciešamību atpūsties, bet Jānis neatbildēja.
En: She worried and talked about the need to rest, but Jānis didn’t respond.
Lv: Zane, viņu mentors, bija stingra un prasīga.
En: Zane, their mentor, was strict and demanding.
Lv: Viņa ticēja Jāņa idejām un gribēja, lai viņš demonstrē visu, ko spēj.
En: She believed in Jānis' ideas and wanted him to showcase everything he could do.
Lv: "Tas ir tavs lielais brīdis," viņa atkārtoja, "visiem ir jāredz, cik lieliska ir tava ideja."
En: "This is your big moment," she repeated, "everyone needs to see how great your idea is."
Lv: Šie vārdi lika viņam censties vēl vairāk, neskatoties uz to, ka viņa pašsajūta sāka sūrst.
En: These words made him push himself even harder, despite his well-being beginning to falter.
Lv: No rīta, kad bija jāsāk prezentācija, Jānis bija satraukts.
En: In the morning, when the presentation was supposed to start, Jānis was anxious.
Lv: Istaba piepildījās ar citiem jaunajiem uzņēmējiem.
En: The room filled up with other young entrepreneurs.
Lv: Kad viņš sāka runāt, pēkšņi sajūtās sirdsklauves un smaga elpa.
En: As he began to speak, he suddenly felt his heart racing and struggled to breathe.
Lv: Sāpes krūtīs lika viņam apstāties.
En: Chest pains forced him to stop.
Lv: Viņš skatījās uz Laimu, kura tūlīt patcēlās no krēsla un skrēja pie viņa.
En: He looked at Laima, who immediately jumped from her chair and ran to him.
Lv: "Inhalē! Lēni un dziļi," viņa teica, turot viņu un saucot palīdzību.
En: "Inhale! Slowly and deeply," she said, holding him and calling for help.
Lv: Visi bija pārsteigti, kad situācija izrādījās nopietna.
En: Everyone was surprised when the situation proved to be serious.
Lv: "Mums jāuzgaida," Zane sacīja, rūpējoties par to, lai Jānis atgūtu elpu.
En: "We need to wait," Zane said, making sure Jānis caught his breath.
Lv: Ap Jāni sanāca cilvēki.
En: People gathered around Jānis.
Lv: Viņa lēmumu pieņemšanas spēja bija trausla.
En: His decision-making ability was fragile.
Lv: Viņam bija jāizvēlas.
En: He had to choose.
Lv: Spiežot sevi līdz robežai vai klausīt savai veselībai?
En: Push himself to the limit or listen to his health?
Lv: Laima bija blakus.
En: Laima was by his side.
Lv: Viņa acīs staroja patiesa bažas un rūpes.
En: Her eyes shone with genuine concern and care.
Lv: "Jāni, lūdzu, domā par sevi. Mēs visi par tevi rūpējamies."
En: "Jāni, please, think of yourself. We all care about you."
Lv: Zane, redzot, cik noturīga ir situācija, ierosināja: "Pārcelsim tavu prezentāciju. Tava veselība ir svarīgāka. Tev ir laiks. Parūpējies par sevi."
En: Zane, seeing how persistent the situation was, suggested, "Let’s reschedule your presentation. Your health is more important. You have time. Take care of yourself."
Lv: Pēc ilga klusuma brīža, Jānis uzmet acis apkārt telpai un saprata.
En: After a long moment of silence, Jānis glanced around the room and realized.
Lv: Naudas iegūšana un panākumi nespēs aizstāt viņa veselību.
En: Securing funds and achieving success would not replace his health.
Lv: Viņš saprata, ka ir pienācis laiks mainīt prioritātes.
En: He understood it was time to change priorities.
Lv: Viņš piekrita meklēt palīdzību un ieslīdēja Laimas apskāvienā, pateicoties par atbalstu.
En: He agreed to seek help and slipped into Laima's embrace, grateful for the support.
Lv: Pārējā diena pagāja mierīgāk.
En: The rest of the day went by more peacefully.
Lv: Inkubators turpināja rosīties, bet Jānis bija mācījies vērtīgu mācību.
En: The incubator continued to be lively, but Jānis had learned a valuable lesson.
Lv: Viņam bija iespēja sāk no jauna, apzinoties, ka viņam ir atbalsta un draudzības spēks.
En: He had the opportunity to start anew, aware that he had the power of support and friendship.
Lv: Viņš solīja sev, ka nākamā prezentācija nesākas ar steigu, bet ar atbildību par savu dzīvi.
En: He promised himself that the next presentation would not begin with haste but with responsibility for his life.
