Day 50:
Dan Gilbert: The surprising science of happiness
按照设定的pattern,今天主要关注三个维度中的第二个维度,演讲方式,我以面和体的形式记录下自己的理解。
面(段)
case study/stories/experiment
这篇演讲最让人印象深刻的是有很多实验对比,通过很多人的亲身故事得到的结论等等,可以让人比较形象化的对实验结果进行了解与接受。其中关于由四个故事导出的synthesize happiness的结论也具有诙谐效果。
- there's something important to be learned from these people, and it is the secret of happiness. Here it is, finally to be revealed. First: accrue wealth, power and prestige, then lose it.Second: spend as much of your life in prison as you possibly can. 07:53 Third: make somebody else really, really rich. And finally: never, ever join the Beatles.
体(章)
- 开篇站在科学角度平铺直叙,引出experience simulator,并解释其作用和反作用
the prefrontal cortex does lots of things, but one of the most important things it does is it's an experience simulator..the simulator make you believe that different outcomes are more different than, in fact, they really are.
- 从科学角度提出对simulator的克服,并且由于"psychological immune system, happiness can be synthesized' 并给出四个故事佐证
there's something important to be learned from these people, and it is the secret of happiness. Here it is, finally to be revealed. First: accrue wealth, power and prestige, then lose it.Second: spend as much of your life in prison as you possibly can. 07:53 Third: make somebody else really, really rich. And finally: never, ever join the Beatles.
- 从科学角度验证 'happiness can be synthesized' (正常人与遗忘症患者)
They're not just saying it because they own it, because they don't know they own it.
- 提出选择自由是‘enemy of synthetic happiness’ 并给出实验结果
freedom to choose, to change and make up your mind, is the enemy of synthetic happiness.. the [reversible] condition is not conducive to the synthesis of happiness.
- 提出结论并号召行动
The lesson I want to leave you with, from these data, is that our longings and our worries are both to some degree overblown, because we have within us the capacity to manufacture the very commodity we are constantly chasing when we choose experience.
