剛開始看本書痊乾,純粹為了鍛煉英語能力皮壁,但隨著逐步深入閱讀和理解,發(fā)現(xiàn)作者所寫字字珠璣哪审,見解深刻蛾魄。與主流成功和奮斗思路不同,作者從萬事萬物的發(fā)展規(guī)律入手湿滓,所謂順者昌滴须、逆者亡,個(gè)人發(fā)展也不能違背大自然幾十億年形成的規(guī)律和原則叽奥。
作者完全利用第一性原理去思考和踐行扔水,總結(jié)的金科玉律和獨(dú)立思考的能力及觀察角度值得好好學(xué)習(xí),本文將節(jié)選其中印象深刻的金句并按照自己理解翻譯出來朝氓。
1魔市,The consensus is often wrong, so I have to be an independent thinker.
大多數(shù)人的想法其實(shí)經(jīng)常是錯(cuò)誤的,我必須要成為一個(gè)有獨(dú)立思考能力的人膀篮。
2嘹狞,I never cared much about others’conclusions—only forthe reasoning that led to these conclusions.
我從來不在乎他人的觀點(diǎn)和結(jié)論,只關(guān)注他人是如何得出這些結(jié)論的理由誓竿。
3磅网,1)working for what I wanted, not for what others wanted me to do; 2) coming up with the best independent opinions I could muster to move toward my goals; 3) stress - testing my opinions by having the smartest people I could find challenge them so I could find out where I was wrong; 4) being wary about overconfidence, and good at not knowing; and 5) wrestling with reality, experiencing the results of my decisions, and reflecting on what I did to produce them so that I could improve.
1)主動(dòng)做自己想做的而不是他人想讓你被動(dòng)去做的事情;2)思考那些最優(yōu)秀筷屡、最獨(dú)立的觀點(diǎn)去實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的目標(biāo)涧偷;3)找那些最睿智的人檢驗(yàn)我的觀點(diǎn)和想法,由此我能發(fā)現(xiàn)其中更多的謬誤毙死;4)警惕自己過于自信和保持無知心態(tài)燎潮;5)在實(shí)踐中檢驗(yàn)和摔打我決斷的效果,反思我是如何做出判斷并加以改進(jìn)扼倘。
4确封,So, because of the law of diminishing returns, it is only natural that seeking something new, or seeking new depths of something old, is required to bring us satisfaction.
基于收益遞減原則,人只有不斷尋找新刺激或挖掘已知刺激的深度才能不斷給我們帶來滿足感再菊。
作者借此說明財(cái)富的不斷增加不會(huì)讓人一直保持滿足和幸福感覺爪喘,人擁有的財(cái)富達(dá)到一定程度后,再累積也不會(huì)給你帶來更滿足和幸福的感覺纠拔。人的感覺是個(gè)巨大的黑洞秉剑,唯有比以往更強(qiáng)烈的刺激才會(huì)讓你更有感覺。所以稠诲,自己的感覺是相對(duì)的侦鹏,是不靠譜的诡曙,比如小時(shí)候日子不好的時(shí)候,過年有好吃到是很開森的事略水,現(xiàn)在天天如此你也不覺得怎么樣价卤。
5,Look at what caused people to make a lot of money and you will see that usually it is in proportion to their production of what the society wanted and largely unrelated to their desire to make money.
觀察那些賺錢的原因聚请,你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)他們賺錢的多少與他們的貢獻(xiàn)和社會(huì)需要程度成正比而與賺錢的欲望程度沒多大關(guān)系荠雕。
也就是往往為了賺錢反而賺不到,而真正想去解決社會(huì)所需的努力才更有價(jià)值驶赏,更可能獲得社會(huì)金錢的回報(bào)炸卑。
6,The most important quality that differentiates successful people from unsuccessful people is our capacity to learn and adapt to these things.
區(qū)分成功和不成功人士最重要的特征是學(xué)習(xí)的和適應(yīng)的能力煤傍。
7盖文,the quality of our lives depends on the quality ofthe decisions we make.
我們生活的質(zhì)量取決于我們做出選擇的質(zhì)量。
8蚯姆,Of course it is true that people are born with differences in their various innate abilities. However, judgment is primarily learned.
毋庸置疑五续,每人天生的能力有差異,然而龄恋,做選擇所需最重要的判斷能力其實(shí)是后天習(xí)得的疙驾。
9,What is essential is that you are clear about what you want and that you figure out how to get it.
最重要的是你清楚知道自己想要什么和如何才能實(shí)現(xiàn)郭毕。
10它碎,I believe that the need to have meaningful work is connected to man’s innate desire to improve.
我相信有意義的工作與人類天然要求進(jìn)步的意愿相關(guān)聯(lián)。
11显押,Most people react to pain badly. They have “fight or flight” reactions to it: they either strike out at whatever brought them the pain or they try to run away from it. As a result, they don’t learn to find ways around their barriers, so they encounter them over and over again and make little or no progress toward what they want.
絕大多數(shù)人對(duì)痛苦的反應(yīng)都不對(duì)扳肛,他們產(chǎn)生對(duì)抗或逃避的反應(yīng):或者與痛苦之源搏斗或者落荒而逃。結(jié)果他們并沒有學(xué)會(huì)如何克服痛苦和提高自己乘碑,因此不斷碰到類似痛苦挖息,以至于被困在原地?zé)o法朝著自己目標(biāo)邁進(jìn)。
12兽肤,When faced with an obstacle or threat, an emotional reaction (e.g. pain) can be triggered that can lead to a fight or flight reaction that “hijacks” decision making away from the pre-frontal cortex, where the rational choices are being made. This can result in our making decisions that produce consequences that we do not want. This typically causes really big problems.
人們遇到挫折或危險(xiǎn)時(shí)套腹,情緒化的痛苦反應(yīng)將被觸發(fā):戰(zhàn)斗或逃跑,造成前額大腦的理性決策能力被情緒腦劫持资铡。這會(huì)導(dǎo)致我們做出本不想要的決定并帶來巨大的問題沉迹。
