1. 素材积累
(1)写作素材
One of the most important things you can ever understand is that we do not live on only one plane of existence. We live in at least four different realms at once. These four quadrants are the physical world, the mental world, the emotional world, and the spiritual world.
What most people never realize is that the physical realm is merely a “printout” of the other three.
For example, let’s suppose you’ve just written a letter on your computer. You hit the print key and the letter comes out of your printer. You look at your hard copy, and lo and behold, you find a typo. So you take out your trusty eraser and rub out the typo. Then you hit print again and out comes the same typo.
Oh my gosh, how could this be? You just erased it! So this time you get a bigger eraser and you rub even harder and longer. You even study a three-hundred-page manual called Effective Erasing. Now you’ve got all the “tools” and knowledge you need. You’re ready. You hit print and there it is again! “No way!” you cry out, stunned in amazement. “How could this be? What’s going on here? Am I in the twilight zone?”
What’s going on here is that the real problem cannot be changed in the “printout,” the physical world; it can only be changed in the “program,” the mental, emotional, and spiritual worlds.
Money is a result, wealth is a result, health is a result, illness is a result, your weight is a result. We live in a world of cause and effect.
Secrets of the Millionaire Mind
(2)写作灵感
Analogy的使用
(3)写作感悟
写东西仍旧属于虎头蛇尾的阶段······
2. 每日一文
船长在讲课的时候很喜欢用类比(analogy),一个原本复杂深奥的知识在他的讲解下常常会变得非常容易理解。不过他也时常提醒我们,使用类比虽然能达到比较好的解释说明的效果,但信息的精准性在类比的过程中不可避免的会出现一定程度的折损。解决方法有两个:提升自己的思维,于是在不使用类比的情况下也能听懂对方的论证,保障信息的准确度;另外就是寻找一个更为贴切的类比方式,以尽量减小其中的不当比喻。
前者是对我们的期待与要求,感觉自己正在龟速进步中;后者是对师者的敦促,可通过升级课程内容和教学法来实现。
刚进孤阅的时候感觉全程被拖着走,一堂课下来脑中常常空空如也,仅记得几个“段子”。后来我就尝试着把这些段子讲给S听,发现自己常常就是鹦鹉学舌般模仿了一个大概,真正说出来的故事和我在课上听到的,总觉得差了好几个档次。好在S并未博学多闻到听过这些故事,于是我最后总能自己偷偷换个概念把这些段子给圆回来。听得多了,说得多了,看录屏的时候居然能用个1.5倍速播放还觉得这节奏恰恰好(主要原因还是船长现在讲课的语速比之前慢了好多啦,不过也因为我对史学和政学的background information有了越来越多的了解)。
读 Secrets of the Millionaire Mind,因为这一块儿的知识储备不足,读起来常常就是知其然而不知其所以然。好在作者的文笔着实有趣,感觉就算直接当段子看也是一本很有意思的书📚。若有人问我对书中哪项内容印象最为深刻,那我一定会举出摘录在写作素材中的那段。
