Hi, good morning! So today's lecture is about change.
早上好,今天要讲的是变化
And things are going to change today.
今天很多事都会发生变化
Our relationship is going to change today. So stay tuned.
我们之间的关系会发生变化,敬请关注啊
Last time, last time we ended by talking about the different kinds of change
上节课,上节课结束的时候,我们谈到很多种不同变化
The first approach — the gradual approach, like water wearing down stone, chipping away gradually slowly taking our time.
第一种方式,是渐进式的,好像滴水穿石,要花时间的一点一点,慢慢的
The second approach — the acute change, the sledge hammer breaking stone creating a new pathway, a new channel.
第二种方式,是突发式的,好像用大锤开山劈石,凿出一条路,一个隧道
The important thing to keep in mind with both forms of changes, with all form of change, lasting change that is, which is what we are about.
对于这两种变化,或是所有形式的变化,必须要注意的是,我们讲的重点是要将变化持续下去
Not just the spike and the return to base level.
而不是突然一变之后又恢复原状
The thing to keep in mind about change is that neither is quick-fix.
因此要注意的是,变化既不是药到病除的灵丹妙药
Even when we pick up that sledge hammer, even when we pick it up, we need to do a lot of work before the preparation.
即便当我们举起大锤,就是这举起来的动作,也需要我们在之前做很多准备的功夫
So for example, gradual change, slow change would be doing the gratitude exercise everyday, slowly becoming more and more of a benefit finder,
因此,举例来说,渐进式的变化,包括每天都做感恩练习,慢慢成为一个更容易找寻美好的人
gradually looking more at the positive, creating a new neural pathway neuron by neuron.
逐渐的看到更多积极的事物,一点一点的构建起新的神经通路
Remember neuroplasticity and neurogenesis — two very important concepts? Because
还记得我们之前说过的两个重要概念,神经塑性和新生神经元吗?因为
just by knowing by understanding that our brain changes that in and of itself makes us more likely to change.
通过了解和理解我们大脑的变化,我们自身也将更容易产生变化
And this is work done by Carol Dweck, whom I'll discuss in future courses when we discuss perfectionism
卡罗尔·德韦克做过相关研究,我们之后谈到完美主义的时候还会提到她
