佛教中有一句话:初学者的心态;拥有初学者的心态是件了不起的事情。
It is the kind of mind that can see things as they are, which step by step and in a flash can realize the original nature of everything. Beginner’s mind is Zen practice in action. It is the mind that is innocent of preconceptions and expectations, judgements and prejudices. Think of beginner’s mind as the mind that faces life like a small child, full of curiosity and wonder and amazement。
不要迷惑于表象而要洞察事务的本质,初学者的心态是行动派的禅宗。所谓初学者的心态是指,不要无端猜测、不要期望、不要武断也不要偏见。初学者的心态正如一个新生儿面对这个世界一样,永远充满好奇、求知欲、赞叹。
6. We think basically you watch television to turn your brain off, and you work on your computer when you want to turn your brain on。
我们认为看电视的时候,人的大脑基本停止工作,打开电脑的时候,大脑才开始运转。
Reams of academic studies over the decades have amply confirmed television’s pernicious mental and moral influences. And most TV watchers know that their habit is mind-numbing and wasteful, but still spend most of their time in front of that box. So turn your TV off and save some brain cells. But be cautious, you can turn your brain off by using a computer also. Try and have an intelligent conversation with someone who plays first person shooters for eight hours a day. Or auto race games, or role-playing games。
过去十年中,大量的理论研究表明,电视对人的精神和心智是有害的。大多数电视观众都知道这个坏习惯会浪费时间并且使大脑变得迟钝,但是他们还是选择呆在电视机前面。关掉电视吧,给自己省点脑细胞。还有,电脑也会让你的大脑秀逗,不信的话你去跟那些一天花8小时玩第一视角设计游戏、汽车拉力游戏、角色扮演游戏的人聊聊看,你也会得出这个结论的。
7. I’m the only person I know that’s lost a quarter of a billion dollars in one year... It’s very character-building。
我是我所知道的唯一一个在一年中失去2.5亿美元的人……这对我的成长很有帮助。
Don’t equate making mistakes with being a mistake. There is no such thing as a successful person who has not failed or made mistakes, there are successful people who made mistakes and changed their lives or performance in response to them, and so got it right the next time. They viewed mistakes as warnings rather than signs of hopeless inadequacy. Never making a mistake means never living life to the full。
范错误不等于错误。从来没有哪个成功的人没有失败过或者犯过错误,相反,成功的人都是犯了错误之后,做出改正,然后下次就不会再错了,他们把错误当成一个警告而不是万劫不复的失败。从不犯错意味着从来没有真正活过。
