3.11 洗衣機與電飯煲

一個洗衣機無論怎樣勤力, 都不能煮飯好過電飯煲.
同理,
一個電飯煲無論怎樣勤力, 都不能洗衣勝過洗衣機.

致勝之道
在於
洗衣機要知道自己是洗衣機,
專心於洗衣方面發展;
電飯煲要知道自己是電飯煲,
專心於煮飯方面發展.

3.12 鱷魚與長頸鹿

人生的遊戲何其多,
記住,
要選擇自己會贏的遊戲.

如果你是魚, 你要同人鬥游泳;
如果你是長頸鹿, 你要同人鬥高;
如果你是豹, 你要同人鬥快.

思考題: 怎樣可以知道自己是什麼動物呢?

Mathematician | Physicist | Engineer

… and in general mathematicians tend to behave like fermions, i.e. avoid working in areas which are too trendy whereas physicists behave a lot more like bosons, which coalesce in large packs and are often over-selling their doings, an attitude which mathematicians despise.

— Advice to the beginner

— Alain Connes

A good scientist is a person with original ideas. A good engineer is a person who makes a design that works with as few original ideas as possible. There are no prima donnas in engineering.

Maths | Physics || Physics | Maths

The most powerful method of advance
that can be suggested at present is
to employ all the resources of pure mathematics in attempts
to perfect and generalize the mathematical formalism
that forms the existing basis of theoretical physics, and
after each success in this direction, to try to interpret the
new mathematical features in terms of physical entities…

— Dirac in 1931

有些電腦程式是市面上買不到的,
要聘請程式員度身訂造,
專為某個特別應用而寫新的程式.

同樣, 有此人腦程式是不容易由自己安裝的. 原因可以是

a. 市面上根本沒有適合自己腦子的程式;
b. 即使有, 自己也不知道哪裏找.

這時候, 你需要請人為你度身訂造程式.

Security

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

Yoga Sutras of Patanjali

When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds: Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great, and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and your discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.

你已有廣博的知識, so what then?

你要把它們放在一個context.

什麼是context?

Context 者, 情境也;

情境者, 上文下理也.

假設
有一部電影,
它有
漂亮的畫面,
精彩的特技,
悅耳的音樂.

偏偏沒有故事劇情,

哪這部電影還有意思嗎?

The Power of Myth

BILL MOYERS: Do you ever have the sense of… being helped by hidden hands?

JOSEPH CAMPBELL: All the time. It is miraculous. I even have a superstition that has grown on me as a result of invisible hands coming all the time – namely, that if you do follow your bliss you put yourself on a kind of track that has been there all the while, waiting for you, and the life that you ought to be living is the one you are living. When you can see that, you begin to meet people who are in your field of bliss, and they open doors to you. I say, follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they were going to be.


My general formula for my students is “Follow your bliss.” Find where it is, and don’t be afraid to follow it.

— Joseph Campbell, The Power of Myth, pp. 120, 149
