Hydrogen atom
A hydrogen atom lost its electron and went to the police station to file a
missing electron report. He was questioned by the police: ”Haven’t you just
misplaced it somewhere? Are you sure that your electron is really lost?”
“I’m positive.” replied the atom.
What it takes to be great (Fortune) ~~~
Well, folks, it’s not so simple. For one thing, you do not possess a natural gift for a certain job, because targeted natural gifts don’t exist. (Sorry, Warren.) You are not a born CEO or investor or chess grandmaster. You will achieve greatness only through an enormous amount of hard work over many years. And not just any hard work, but work of a particular type that’s demanding and painful.
Buffett, for instance, is famed for his discipline and the hours he spends studying financial statements of potential investment targets. The good news is that your lack of a natural gift is irrelevant – talent has little or nothing to do with greatness. You can make yourself into any number of things, and you can even make yourself great.
Scientific experts are producing remarkably consistent findings across a wide array of fields. Understand that talent doesn’t mean intelligence, motivation or personality traits. It’s an innate ability to do some specific activity especially well. British-based researchers Michael J. Howe, Jane W. Davidson and John A. Sluboda conclude in an extensive study, “The evidence we have surveyed … does not support the [notion that] excelling is a consequence of possessing innate gifts.”
To see how the researchers could reach such a conclusion, consider the problem they were trying to solve. In virtually every field of endeavor, most people learn quickly at first, then more slowly and then stop developing completely. Yet a few do improve for years and even decades, and go on to greatness.
The irresistible question – the “fundamental challenge” for researchers in this field, says the most prominent of them, professor K. Anders Ericsson of Florida State University – is, Why? How are certain people able to go on improving? The answers begin with consistent observations about great performers in many fields.
Scientists worldwide have conducted scores of studies since the 1993 publication of a landmark paper by Ericsson and two colleagues, many focusing on sports, music and chess, in which performance is relatively easy to measure and plot over time. But plenty of additional studies have also examined other fields, including business.
The first major conclusion is that nobody is great without work. It’s nice to believe that if you find the field where you’re naturally gifted, you’ll be great from day one, but it doesn’t happen. There’s no evidence of high-level performance without experience or practice.
Reinforcing that no-free-lunch finding is vast evidence that even the most accomplished people need around ten years of hard work before becoming world-class, a pattern so well established researchers call it the ten-year rule.
What about Bobby Fischer, who became a chess grandmaster at 16? Turns out the rule holds: He’d had nine years of intensive study. And as John Horn of the University of Southern California and Hiromi Masunaga of California State University observe, “The ten-year rule represents a very rough estimate, and most researchers regard it as a minimum, not an average.” In many fields (music, literature) elite performers need 20 or 30 years’ experience before hitting their zenith.
So greatness isn’t handed to anyone; it requires a lot of hard work. Yet that isn’t enough, since many people work hard for decades without approaching greatness or even getting significantly better. What’s missing?
The best people in any field are those who devote the most hours to what the researchers call “deliberate practice.” It’s activity that’s explicitly intended to improve performance, that reaches for objectives just beyond one’s level of competence, provides feedback on results and involves high levels of repetition.
For example: Simply hitting a bucket of balls is not deliberate practice, which is why most golfers don’t get better. Hitting an eight-iron 300 times with a goal of leaving the ball within 20 feet of the pin 80 percent of the time, continually observing results and making appropriate adjustments, and doing that for hours every day – that’s deliberate practice.
Consistency is crucial. As Ericsson notes, “Elite performers in many diverse domains have been found to practice, on the average, roughly the same amount every day, including weekends.”
Evidence crosses a remarkable range of fields. In a study of 20-year-old violinists by Ericsson and colleagues, the best group (judged by conservatory teachers) averaged 10,000 hours of deliberate practice over their lives; the next-best averaged 7,500 hours; and the next, 5,000. It’s the same story in surgery, insurance sales, and virtually every sport. More deliberate practice equals better performance. Tons of it equals great performance.
Not all researchers are totally onboard with the myth-of-talent hypothesis, though their objections go to its edges rather than its center. For one thing, there are the intangibles. Two athletes might work equally hard, but what explains the ability of New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady to perform at a higher level in the last two minutes of a game?
Researchers also note, for example, child prodigies who could speak, read or play music at an unusually early age. But on investigation those cases generally include highly involved parents. And many prodigies do not go on to greatness in their early field, while great performers include many who showed no special early aptitude.
Certainly some important traits are partly inherited, such as physical size and particular measures of intelligence, but those influence what a person doesn’t do more than what he does; a five-footer will never be an NFL lineman, and a seven-footer will never be an Olympic gymnast. Even those restrictions are less severe than you’d expect: Ericsson notes, “Some international chess masters have IQs in the 90s.” The more research that’s done, the more solid the deliberate-practice model becomes.
All this scholarly research is simply evidence for what great performers have been showing us for years. To take a handful of examples: Winston Churchill, one of the 20th century’s greatest orators, practiced his speeches compulsively. Vladimir Horowitz supposedly said, “If I don’t practice for a day, I know it. If I don’t practice for two days, my wife knows it. If I don’t practice for three days, the world knows it.” He was certainly a demon practicer, but the same quote has been attributed to world-class musicians like Ignace Paderewski and Luciano Pavarotti.
Many great athletes are legendary for the brutal discipline of their practice routines. In basketball, Michael Jordan practiced intensely beyond the already punishing team practices. (Had Jordan possessed some mammoth natural gift specifically for basketball, it seems unlikely he’d have been cut from his high school team.)
In football, all-time-great receiver Jerry Rice – passed up by 15 teams because they considered him too slow – practiced so hard that other players would get sick trying to keep up.
Tiger Woods is a textbook example of what the research shows. Because his father introduced him to golf at an extremely early age – 18 months – and encouraged him to practice intensively, Woods had racked up at least 15 years of practice by the time he became the youngest-ever winner of the U.S. Amateur Championship, at age 18. Also in line with the findings, he has never stopped trying to improve, devoting many hours a day to conditioning and practice, even remaking his swing twice because that’s what it took to get even better.
The evidence, scientific as well as anecdotal, seems overwhelmingly in favor of deliberate practice as the source of great performance. Just one problem: How do you practice business? Many elements of business, in fact, are directly practicable. Presenting, negotiating, delivering evaluations, deciphering financial statements – you can practice them all.
Still, they aren’t the essence of great managerial performance. That requires making judgments and decisions with imperfect information in an uncertain environment, interacting with people, seeking information – can you practice those things too? You can, though not in the way you would practice a Chopin etude.
Instead, it’s all about how you do what you’re already doing – you create the practice in your work, which requires a few critical changes. The first is going at any task with a new goal: Instead of merely trying to get it done, you aim to get better at it.
Report writing involves finding information, analyzing it and presenting it – each an improvable skill. Chairing a board meeting requires understanding the company’s strategy in the deepest way, forming a coherent view of coming market changes and setting a tone for the discussion. Anything that anyone does at work, from the most basic task to the most exalted, is an improvable skill.
Armed with that mindset, people go at a job in a new way. Research shows they process information more deeply and retain it longer. They want more information on what they’re doing and seek other perspectives. They adopt a longer-term point of view. In the activity itself, the mindset persists. You aren’t just doing the job, you’re explicitly trying to get better at it in the larger sense.
Again, research shows that this difference in mental approach is vital. For example, when amateur singers take a singing lesson, they experience it as fun, a release of tension. But for professional singers, it’s the opposite: They increase their concentration and focus on improving their performance during the lesson. Same activity, different mindset.
Feedback is crucial, and getting it should be no problem in business. Yet most people don’t seek it; they just wait for it, half hoping it won’t come. Without it, as Goldman Sachs leadership-development chief Steve Kerr says, “it’s as if you’re bowling through a curtain that comes down to knee level. If you don’t know how successful you are, two things happen: One, you don’t get any better, and two, you stop caring.” In some companies, like General Electric, frequent feedback is part of the culture. If you aren’t lucky enough to get that, seek it out.
Through the whole process, one of your goals is to build what the researchers call “mental models of your business” – pictures of how the elements fit together and influence one another. The more you work on it, the larger your mental models will become and the better your performance will grow.
Andy Grove could keep a model of a whole world-changing technology industry in his head and adapt Intel (Charts) as needed. Bill Gates, Microsoft’s (Charts) founder, had the same knack: He could see at the dawn of the PC that his goal of a computer on every desk was realistic and would create an unimaginably large market. John D. Rockefeller, too, saw ahead when the world-changing new industry was oil. Napoleon was perhaps the greatest ever. He could not only hold all the elements of a vast battle in his mind but, more important, could also respond quickly when they shifted in unexpected ways.
That’s a lot to focus on for the benefits of deliberate practice – and worthless without one more requirement: Do it regularly, not sporadically.
For most people, work is hard enough without pushing even harder. Those extra steps are so difficult and painful they almost never get done. That’s the way it must be. If great performance were easy, it wouldn’t be rare. Which leads to possibly the deepest question about greatness. While experts understand an enormous amount about the behavior that produces great performance, they understand very little about where that behavior comes from.
The authors of one study conclude, “We still do not know which factors encourage individuals to engage in deliberate practice.” Or as University of Michigan business school professor Noel Tichy puts it after 30 years of working with managers, “Some people are much more motivated than others, and that’s the existential question I cannot answer – why.”
The critical reality is that we are not hostage to some naturally granted level of talent. We can make ourselves what we will. Strangely, that idea is not popular. People hate abandoning the notion that they would coast to fame and riches if they found their talent. But that view is tragically constraining, because when they hit life’s inevitable bumps in the road, they conclude that they just aren’t gifted and give up.
Maybe we can’t expect most people to achieve greatness. It’s just too demanding. But the striking, liberating news is that greatness isn’t reserved for a preordained few. It is available to you and to everyone.

Some sentences to remember. 不记得从谁的文章里知道了这个伊甸园听译的小丫头。看她的blog，你就会明白所谓成功，永远都是要奋斗才能得到的！
长大
这几天学习得不错，计划表花了三天的时 间，终于列好了，很详细，列了一个月的计划，临近一个月的计划，到时候再说。真的是一件很浪费脑细胞的事情，得筹划好多东西。状态在慢慢恢复过程中。状态 没有完全恢复，是因为学习效率不太高，原因是什么，我知道。计划表列得太紧了，不过看着很high，过的很充实。
人和人上自习或做事情的时候，是有不同习惯的。我的习惯，就是从坐下的那一刻起开始上自习，不说话，专心致志，一直到吃饭的时候才会起来，这个习惯都已经五年了，所以上自习的时候，我不需要和人聊天，来放松自己。
了解
所以，做事情也是一样，你到底喜欢什么，不是自己坐在 那里想“我靠，我到底喜欢什么啊？？？？？”，这样想不出来的。你得去做，做那些你以为你喜欢的事情，做了以后，也许你会发现自己其实不是很喜欢。同样， 你也得去做那些你以为你不感兴趣的事情，做了以后，也许你会发现自己其实不是很讨厌它。所以，那句话说的对，实践出真知。真的是这个理。那么，最后剩下的 关键，就是，你是不是真的去做了。
今天通过以上“实践出真知”的道理，我又发现了自己的 一个喜好。那就是，我原来并不喜欢休息。过了十天那样的生活以后（这十天身体上和精神上的痛苦省略一千字…），我以为如果我能好好休息上一天，睡到自 然醒，然后痛快地看一天电影马拉松，我会很爽。但是昨天一天过完了，我一点儿也不爽，差点儿得了抑郁症。早晨睡到九点起来，头疼得厉害，起来看看坛子，发 发任务，乱七八糟不知道干了些什么，一抬头，已经十二点了，赶快投胎般地奔到学校，吃饭，上课，下午回来继续浑浑噩噩，也不想看电影，也不想做翻译作业， 一抬头，五点了。。。下楼买饭，吃饭，浑浑噩噩，一抬头，九点了，赶快投胎般地去洗澡，回来以后，浑浑噩噩，一抬头，十二点了。一天过去了，一件事也没做 成。这就是生活没有计划的“好处”—-一整天24小时过去了，你什么都没做成。晚上躺下以后你问自己你今天做什么了，发现自己都没法给自己的生活一个 明确的答案，心里害怕不害怕？
所以，如果以后我想休息，其实精挑细选地看一个电影，就够了。或者出去散散步，就够了。花一天的时间，过这样一个莫名其妙的24小时，太奇怪了。以后我不想这样了。
拯救自己
这周，有三个人，同时找我聊天谈话，都谈到同一个问题：不知道自己喜欢啥，活得迷茫，完全没动力，完全自知生活状态不对但却不知道该咋办。。。等等一类的问题。
至于我们到底喜欢什么，这一点，你得承认，只有少数比 较幸运的人，从小就找到自己的兴趣爱好，并又一次幸运地从事了与之直接相关的事业，并再次在这个领域成功了。这样的人，很少。大多数人都是从不断地尝试和 实践中，逐渐发现自己的爱好和兴趣的。我承认，我也不知道自己喜欢什么，并且也不确定自己的爱好兴趣是不是将来真的能实际地成为我从事的职业。但是这有什 么关系？难道不知道自己喜欢什么，就可以有资格成为你不奋斗，或者驻足的借口了？别那么无耻了。清醒清醒吧。不管你喜欢什么，该做的事情还要做。该做的事 情是什么？学好英语，学好专业课，这是无论你走到哪里，绝对都用得上的东西。如果你因为自己迷茫的没有状态的不知道自己喜欢什么，并因此混沌着一天又一 天，那真的相当于慢性自杀，比嗑药还恐怖，我觉得。所以，我想让你知道，你喜欢什么，是做事情做出来的，是多尝试多观察多实践逐渐揣摩出来的，不是坐在那 里瞎想出来的，不是上网上出来的，都不是。你什么时候自己不去做，你都不会知道自己喜欢什么。别再幻觉了，没啥用。你别问，你就做吧。少说多做，永远都是 真理。在你做事情的不经意间，眼前的路，自然会明晰。相信我。
17天之第八天
我 今天发现，做事之前真的不能多想，如果你预先就在想“哇，今天我要看37个LIST啊？有没有搞错？这是绝对不可能办到的吧？”，如果你这么想，基本就半 废了，洗洗睡吧。做事切忌胡思乱想，只有一句话是王道：该干啥干啥。别没事儿给自己瞎套紧箍咒。我今天也没咋想，就一页一页地翻过去，不知不觉半本书就过 去了。我觉得以后做每件事，都应该像背单词一样，别多想，你就做就行了。火候到了，功自然就练成了。要加油，要对自己有信心。

如何学习英语
从考拉小巫的blog转过来的。
听力方面：1.Step by Step 四册，要认真听，精听。我全套书听了大概七八遍，这书是为听力打基础的很好的材料。
2.中级听力和高级听力，外研社出的。高级听力我没听过，但是我有同学听它，说很不错，我只听过中级听力，大概听了15遍左右。里面的故事超有意思。复习高翻时也可以用做复述材料练习。
3.最最推荐的就是VOA和BBC，这没的说，一定要听。要坚持每天听，不要三天打鱼两天晒网，不单是学习，做任何事都该坚持。
口语方面：1.语音：外研社出过一本书，浅绿色封面，专门是纠正发音的，美音，我大一时这本书我每天练，模仿native speaker发音，练到舌头烂了，一定要模仿的象才行！西西说英音，她练的书也是外研社出的，书名我忘记了。
2.电影：呵呵，我是超级大fans， 外国电影都看，法国电影暂时看不懂，也听不懂，但是正在努力；主要看英国和美国，美国的多一些，有的电影文化背景深厚，有的纯属娱乐开心的，我无所谓咯， 看电影就是为放松，顺便也练听力练口语。看过了就可以把台词背下来了，很好玩。不过我再背台词，背的也不如多利熟练，多利可以把You’ve got mail中很长一段台词背下来~~不傀为是大牛啊！！！要是通过电影来练口语，主要就是多看几遍！
一部电影至少看5遍，你才能真正听懂他们说的每一句话，如果只看一遍的话，那基本就是在“看电影”，而不是在“吸收电影”了。
阅读方面：1.原著：我看的不多，以前有时间看，大学以后就没看过了。以前那些出名些的原著都看过，比如《飘》《简爱》《双城记》，忘记了。
2.外刊：哎，因为复习北外，所以首先就是The Economist
其次就是Newsweek, Time, 很少看China Daily，觉得一般，不太纯正。那时为了学习C-E，曾经看过一段时间Beijing Review。现在就是没事时随便翻一翻。注意看人家的句式是最重要的！
写作方面：主要就是图书馆里面教写作的一些书，都是外国人写的，看起来比较简单。但其实看什么教材不重要，重在自己练习！
读多了，练多了，自然就会写出好文章。

Earthquake in Sichuan province, China
Just donated $100 this morning through Tsinghua Challenge Education Foundation (Maybe not so much compared to others, but it’s my heart). They have several donation methods which are very convenient: Paypal, Google CheckOut, wire transfer and check and there’s no transaction fee for the first two methods. The donation is tax deductible and all donations (100%) will be forward to Red Cross China. They won’t charge any fee. Here’s the link
I saw the story reported by Mellisa Block on the website of npr. I listened to the radio. I heard the reporter telling us the story with sobbed voice. I admire the journalists who fly to China to give us the most authentic stories. I read the comments below the story written by these kindhearted people in the United States.
I also heard of the distorted news by BBC. How can they face their morality by writing such things to this big disaster in which tens of thousands people have died?
Facing the disaster, we will be stronger, and we’ll be together more tightly to support those alive.
earthquake of magnitude 7.8 in Sichuan.

Beginning
The name comes from a series of articles written by ukim, who graduated from Peking University in China. These stories are about legends of great mathematicians. I need inspirations all the time, until I can give myself inspirations. These stories, were first posted on smth.org in 2002 and they were written in Chinese. It’s hard to translate them into English since I’m not so familiar with the history. But I need to save these wonderful stories.
Other than that, I want to record all the wonderful/important things in life I come across. I’ll try to heal myself by being a person full of energy and is filled with happiness. I need to be more brave and throw all unnecessary anxiety away.
And I hope someday, I can write about heroes in my heart.
—————–I’m the cut-off line———————–
Summary:
