看完这14幅漫画,或许会改变你的一生
在《早餐英语》节目中,我们读了Bullet Man的故事,相信大家都有自己的思考。不知道读者朋友们还记不记得小编给大家分享过的乔布斯的故事。如果乔布斯没有退学,苹果公司就没有那么好看的字体;如果乔布斯没有被苹果公司炒鱿鱼,就不会有世界上最成功的电脑工作室Pixar公司,《玩具总动员》也就不会面世了。

以上的种种的事例都说明了“福祸相依”、“塞翁失马焉知非福”这样的含义,英文中有一个类似的表达,“Misfortune might be a blessing in disguise”。
我们都知道,事情发展的好或坏,每个人有自己的判断。思维方式对于我们非常重要,小编今天想给大家分享一下关于思维方式的重要性。
杜克大学的老师们为毕业生画了14幅漫画,把看似繁琐的思维方式寥寥几笔就描绘了出来,让人一目了然。今天给大家分享一下,希望对大家有所启发。
1. “Pay close attention. This is your life.”
请密切留意,这就是你的生活。

2. It is just a choice that leads to the next steps of life
选择引领你走向生活的下一阶段

“People always obsess over big decisions (e.g., which job/ position to accept), but really, tomorrow will always be a blur. Plan with calmness, and then take the leap in the direction you think is best, knowing that there will rarely be a 'right’ or 'wrong’ but just a choice that leads to the next steps of life.”
“人们总是沉迷于重大决策(例如,接受哪种工作/职位),但实际上,明天永远是模糊的。 冷静地计划,然后朝着你认为最好的方向迈出一大步,要知道很少有“正确”或“错误”选择,这仅仅是导致下一步生活的选择而已”。
3. Relationships关系

“You will get the more satisfaction about the relationships you form than from the things you acquire.”
你会对你所建立的关系感到满意,而不是你所获得的东西。
4. Respect people over job titles
尊重人,而不是职位。

“Respect people over job titles. Everyone’s life has meaning.”
“尊重人而不是职位,每个人的人生都有意义。”
5. Instead of seeing it as a shutdown,look at it as an opportunity
不要把它视为结束,而应视为机会。

“Learn to reframe rejection. Whether you’re working towards a leadership position or building a company, people will frequently tell you no. Instead of seeing it as a shutdown, look at it as an opportunity to figure out why. Are you asking the wrong person? Have you not yet demonstrated you can handle the new responsibility? Over time, 'no’ becomes just another opportunity to wait, learn and try again.”
学会重新定义拒绝。 无论你是在追逐领导职位还是建立公司,人们都会经常否定你。 不要将它视为终结,而应将其视为找出原因的机会。 你问错了人吗? 你还没有证明你可以胜任新的责任吗? 随着时间的推移,'否定'成为另一个等待、学习和尝试的机会。“
6. Find a place where you can be challenged. Ask yourself: Am I proud of my work?”
找到能挑战自己的地方。问问自己:“我对我的工作感到自豪吗?”

7.Embrace ambiguity
接受不确定性

“Don’t be afraid to diverge from your 'plan.’ Embrace ambiguity. The uncertain and what may appear high risk in relationships, jobs and life is usually very cool and worthwhile.”
别害怕偏离你的计划。接受不确定性。那些在你感情,工作和生活上表现出不确定性和高风险的东西往往都是很酷而且值得尝试的。
8. Stop and look back
停下来回头看看

“As you move forward into the next stage of your life, do not forget to stop and look back to discover the meaning of where you have been. That will help you better understand who you are, where you may be heading, and how you can get there.”
当你进入人生的新阶段,别忘了停下来回头看看,发现过去经历的意义。这可以让你更好的了解你是谁,将到哪去,如何去那里。
9、Being educated≠Smart
受过教育并不代表聪明

“Never confuse being educated with being smart.”
别把“受过教育”和“聪明”混为一谈
10. Be generous to other people
慷慨待人

11. Read broadly
广泛阅读

“Read outside of your chosen field, read broadly, read enthusiastically. Creativity is a necessary life skill and some inspirations will come from unexpected sources.”
“广泛并热情地阅读自己领域外的书籍。创造力是必要的生存技能,而一些灵感就来自于你不经意间的积累。”
12. Be true to yourself
诚实对待自己

“Be true to yourself. Be willing to learn and to be coachable.”
诚实地对待自己。要乐于学习、虚心受教。
13. Give back
回报

“Give back—serve from a sense of gratitude.”
从感恩的角度给予回馈
14. Stick with it
勇于坚持

思维方式会影响我们生活的方方面面,换个角度思考问题,也许会海阔天空。
