“不,Jony,你只是太虚荣了。你只是想让别人喜欢你。我很惊讶,因为我以为你真的把工作本身看得最重要,而不是你认为别人如何看待你。”
“No Jony, you’re just really vain. You just want people to like you. And I’m surprised at you because I thought you really held the work up as the most important—not how you believe you are perceived by other people.”

“见下文‘使用图形’。虽然这不算是一个‘规则’,但至少是一个关于节奏的重要指导原则:在任何列表中,应把最短的词放在最前,最长的放在最后。这是高潮原则,由分号强调。‘凭借愿望、出生和选择,我是苏格兰人’听起来有一种鼓声般的效果。‘我将去捕捞鳕鱼、蓝鳍金枪鱼、令人难以置信但强大的姥鲨,以及拥有众多触须的深海章鱼’就只是,某种程度上,听起来比‘我将去捕捞拥有众多触须的深海章鱼、蓝鳍金枪鱼、令人难以置信但强大的姥鲨和鳕鱼’更好。”

如果你是一个创作者并开始创业,你的超级能力就是几乎为零的客户获取成本。

利用这种超级能力,瞄准那些客户获取成本(CAC)较高的产品和行业。

例如,MrBeast 应该推出一家新型数字银行(neobank)。

Want your kids to succeed? Praise effort and grit not talent.

斯坦福大学的刘易斯和弗吉尼亚·伊顿心理学教授卡罗尔·德韦克在1998年进行了一项引人入胜的研究。她和同事们对400名五年级学生进行了一系列测试。研究人员用两组各六个词来表扬学生。对其中一半学生,他们说"你一定很擅长这个",而对另一半则说"你一定很努力"。

第一组词着重表扬智力和天赋,类似于我们(包括我)经常对孩子说的"你多聪明"或"你多有天赋"这样的话。第二组词则表扬努力、决心、准备和坚毅。研究人员想要了解不同类型的表扬会如何影响孩子们对自己能力的看法——是认为能力是固定不变的,还是可以通过努力提高和改变的。

在下一轮测试中,孩子们可以选择:尝试更难的问题或更简单的问题。有趣的是,被表扬天赋的孩子倾向于选择更简单的问题,而被表扬努力的孩子则选择尝试更难的问题。为什么会这样?虽然我们可能认为表扬天赋会增强自信心,但德韦克发现这反而会造成一种地位感,让人害怕从这个高度跌落。如果人们相信自己有特殊天赋并期望表现出色,那么失败的想法就会成为一种负担。为了保护自己"有天赋和才能"的身份,他们会选择更简单的任务来确保高表现。

在研究的下一部分,两组孩子都被给予更难的问题,结果两组表现都较差。这并不令人意外。但有趣的是:当研究人员询问孩子们在问题上的表现时,被表扬天赋的孩子在近40%的时候都夸大了自己的表现,这可能是为了维持他们"有天赋"的社会地位。然而,当被表扬努力的孩子被问到同样的问题时,只有不到10%的人夸大了他们的表现,这可能是因为他们的自尊心并不依赖于表现。

最精彩的部分在研究的下一阶段。两组孩子都被给予了与原始测试难度相当的问题。对于被表扬天赋的那组来说,他们在早前遭受了自尊打击,表现明显比第一轮差。他们被告知很聪明,但表现不佳,现在面对同样难度的问题时,由于信心受挫,他们的表现明显更差。而另一组表现要好得多——比上一轮提高了近30%。对这些孩子来说,成功在于努力,失败只意味着需要更加努力,而不是担心失去地位。

How to keep things simple? by Steve Jobs
How to keep things simple? by Steve Jobs

乔布斯希望打造一款个人电脑,能够开箱即用,甚至不需要用户手册。他回忆说:“这是第一目标。”然而,由于鼠标作为控制电脑的设备对人们来说非常陌生,Mac团队意识到产品必须配备一本说明手册。

在一次与埃利奥特、乔布斯以及一些市场人员的会议中,有人提出,手册的内容应该足够简单,让十二年级的学生都能读懂,并通过文字自己学会操作电脑。

乔布斯不情愿地答道:“好吧,杰伊,去一所高中找个十二年级的学生来写这本手册。”

乔布斯并不是在开玩笑。埃利奥特亲自去了库比蒂诺附近的几所高中,并举办比赛寻找合适的写手。最终,他们找到了一位学生写手,把他带到一个秘密设施。在那里,这位十二年级的学生与Macintosh一起工作、试用并摸索如何使用它。Macintosh成为了第一款普通人也能轻松使用的个人电脑,同时配备了一本简单的手册,针对具有高中教育水平的读者。手册内容包括一些简单的句子,例如: • “你即将学习一种使用电脑的新方法。” • “本章将教会你如何使用Macintosh:如何创建文档(在Macintosh上创建的任何内容都叫文档),如何对它们进行修改以及保存。” • “Finder就像Macintosh房子中的主走廊。”

埃利奥特说:“史蒂夫的天才之处在于他善于找到合适的人,帮助他保持一切简洁——从设计到内容。”

Be brief. Be bright. Be gone.
Be brief. Be bright. Be gone.

在我刚开始为一位前老板工作时,有一天我走进他的办公室,听到他说了这样的话:"简明扼要。头脑清晰。快去执行。" 不用说,他这样的"问候"让我很惊讶。老实说,这让我措手不及。 不是说我不理解他说的每个字,我都明白。只是我不喜欢他说话的方式。我当时就意识到,这可能会是一段充满挑战的关系。我的性格和他的风格产生了很大的冲突。所以,我做了一个决定。我决定要去理解他说的话背后的真正含义。以下是我的理解:

简明扼要——尽可能高效地表达你的信息。直奔主题。告诉我你需要什么以及我能如何帮助。 头脑清晰——展现你的最佳状态。向我证明你已经深思熟虑过你要说的话,并且能够清楚地表达你的想法。 快去执行——时间是非常宝贵的资源。说完你要说的话就去落实我们讨论的事情。

A great reminder that success comes from focused, deliberate action, not scattered efforts.
A great reminder that success comes from focused, deliberate action, not scattered efforts.

创建一个关键优先事项的简短清单,并保持清单简短。一些领导者发现在任何时候只设定一个优先事项是很有用的。他们会专注于这个单一优先事项,直到完成它为止。 如果你必须有多个优先事项,那就将其限制在最多三个——超过三个优先事项就等于承认你实际上没有任何优先事项。 芝加哥马拉松赛所属体育赛事公司的执行董事鲍勃·布莱特对这一观点做了生动的说明。在布莱特任职期间,这项赛事从一个地区性的二级赛事发展成为一个一流的国际赛事,并创造了世界纪录。当被问及成功的关键是什么时,布莱特简单地回答说:"永远不要把步枪调到自动模式。" 我们请他解释这句话。他告诉我们,他在越南当过八年海军陆战队员。他经历过许多战斗——他带领"诱饵"小队直接深入敌营。正是在那里,他学到了人生中最重要的一课之一: 当你只有几个人,而周围都是敌人时,最好的做法是说:"你负责这一段区域,你负责那一段区域,不要使用自动射击。一次只打一枪。不要慌乱。" 嗯,同样的道理也适用于商业——而且这真的很重要。让自己专注于一次只打一枪。如果你不这样做,你就会陷入很多麻烦。 这并不是要把经营企业等同于带领军事单位作战。然而,这个基本理念——保持专注,一次做好一件事,不要慌乱——适用于创业公司运营的纷繁复杂。这是否意味着你的"待办事项"清单上应该只有一件事?是,也不是。显然,要领导一家公司,不可能在待办清单上只有一件事。但你应该把大部分时间花在你的第一优先事项上,集中精力处理这个优先事项,直到完成为止。

大卫·迈斯特在其论文《排队心理学》中写道,不确定的等待时间看起来比确定的等待时间要长得多,这就是为什么迪士尼主题公园使用复杂的公式来计算并显示等待时间。"前期等待"似乎比"进行中等待"感觉更长,这就是为什么餐厅会在准备好服务之前就让您入座。当队伍得到认可时,顾客会更满意:当超市呼叫"所有工作人员到收银台"时,让您听到这个通知与实际增加人手同样重要。而且,有事可做的时间比无所事事的时间过得更快:镜子墙特别有效,显然是因为大多数人喜欢看自己。

Reminds me of Christopher Alexander’s advice to his students — aim for Chartres.
Reminds me of Christopher Alexander’s advice to his students — aim for Chartres.

在我作为建筑师的生活中,我发现阻碍年轻专业人士,尤其是新生最大的因素,是他们接受了过低的标准。如果我问一位学生,她的设计是否和沙特尔大教堂(Chartres)一样好,她通常会宽容地对我微笑,仿佛在说:“当然不是,那不是我想要做的……我永远做不到。”

然后,我表达我的不同意见,并告诉她:“那个标准必须成为我们的标准。如果你要成为一名建造者,没有其他标准是值得追求的。这是我对自己建筑作品的期望,也是我对我的学生的期望。”渐渐地,我让学生们认识到,他们有权要求自己达到这样的标准,并且必须对自己提出这样的要求。一旦这种标准根植于他们的头脑中,他们就能够自行发现如何做得更好,如何创造出同样深刻的东西。

这种改变标准的过程产生了两个结果。第一,工作变得更有趣了。它更深刻,从来不会变得乏味或无聊,因为人们永远无法真正达到这个标准。一个人的工作变成了一生的事业,人们会不断尝试。因此,在这样一个目标的指引下生活,会非常有成就感。

但其次,这确实改变了人们努力的方向。它让人们摆脱了纯粹技术层面的日常、低层次追求(我们已经习惯于接受这些追求),并用一些深刻的东西取而代之,这些深刻的东西将会对我们所有居住在地球上的人产生真正的影响。

留在公交车上
留在公交车上
但当你被告知你的作品并不像你想象的那么原创时,你感到沮丧,因为这些作品看起来像是摄影师欧文·佩恩作品的仿制品;原来,佩恩乘坐的公交车就在你乘坐的同一条线路上。你对自己浪费了三年时间追随别人的道路感到恼火,于是你跳下公交车,叫了一辆出租车,回到了最初的公交车站。这一次,你选择乘坐另一辆公交车,决定专注于不同类型的摄影。但几站之后,同样的事情又发生了:你被告知你的新作品看起来也是模仿他人的。你又回到了公交车站。但这种模式不断重复:你创作的作品始终没有被认可为真正属于你自己的作品。解决方案是什么?明基宁说:'很简单,留在公交车上。就他妈的留在公交车上。'在穿越城市的旅程中,赫尔辛基的公交线路会在远一点的地方分叉,当它们穿过郊区进入远处的乡村时,每条线路都会驶向独特的目的地。这就是独特作品开始的地方。
