Millennials in workforce, a generation ofweakness
千禧一代員工:軟弱的一代
Simon Sinek 西蒙·斯涅克
翻譯者:楊蘭Rebecca
What’s the millennials? Apparently, millennials, are the generation, which is a groupof people who were born approximately 1984 and after. Are tough to manage. Andthey are accused of being entitled, are narcissistic, self-interested,unfocused, lazy. But entitled is a big one. And because they confound leaderships so much, what’s happening is leaders are asking the millennial,what do you want? And millennials are saying, we want to work in a place with purpose. Love that. And we want to make an impact, and you know, whatever that means. We want free food, and bean bags. And so, somebody articulate some sortof purpose, and there are lots of free food and there are bean bags. And yet forsome reason, they are still not happy. And that’s because there is a missing piece, what I have learned, I can break down it into 4 pieces. There are 4 things, 4 characteristics. One is parenting, the other one is technology, the 3rd is impatience, the 4th is environment.
千禧一代是指誰呢?很明顯,他們是出生在1984年及以后的一代人(在中國,或許應(yīng)該向后推遲幾年?譯者注)。他們是很難管理的。人們指責(zé)這代人是:自命不凡,自戀的,自私自利的,不聚焦的,懶惰的。但是自命不凡是一個重點。由于他們讓領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者如此挫敗,因此領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者們會問千禧一代:你們想要什么呢?他們會說:“嗯,我們想要在一個有意義的地方工作,我們想要有影響力……不管影響力是什么意思吧。我們想要免費的食物,還有豆袋沙發(fā)。” 因此, 有人明確表達(dá)了意義,準(zhǔn)備了大量的免費食物和豆袋沙發(fā)。但是出于某些原因,千禧一代還是不快樂。這是因為這里缺失了一塊?;谖业难芯浚野讶笔У牟糠址殖伤膫€因素:父母的教養(yǎng),科技,缺乏耐心,和環(huán)境。

The generation, that we call the millennials,too many of them grow up subject to, not my words, failed parenting strategies.Where, for example, .they were told that they were special, all the time. They were told that they can get anything they want in their life, just because theywant it. Some of them got into honored classes not because they deserved it,but because their parents complained and some of them got ‘A’s not because they earned them but because the teachers didn’t want to deal with the parents. Somekids got participation medals. You got a medal for coming in last, which the science we know is pretty clear which is devalues the medal and the rewards for those who actually worked hard and actually make the one who comes in last feel embarrassed because they know they didn’t deserve it. So that actually makes me feel worse, right?
我們稱之為千禧一代的這些人當(dāng)中,有太多人成長于失敗的父母教養(yǎng)策略之下——這并不是我說的。比如,他們總是被父母告知自己是特別的;他們被告知他們可以獲得任何想要的東西,僅僅想要就可以;有些人進(jìn)入了榮譽班級,不是因為他們值得,而是因為父母提出了投訴;還有些人獲得A的成績,不是因為他們掙得的,而是因為老師們不愿意應(yīng)付家長。還有些小孩獲得了參與獎——最后一名的獎項??茖W(xué)研究清楚地告訴我們,對那些真正努力拼搏的人們,這種做法降低了獎牌和獎勵的價值。而最后一名也會因此而感到尷尬,因為他們知道自己并不值得獎牌。這樣做反而讓我們感覺更糟不是嗎?
So you take this group of people, and they graduate school,they get a job, and the thrust into the real world. And in an instant, they find out that they are not special, their moms can’t get them a promotion, that you get nothing for coming in last. And by the way, you can’t just have it cause you want it. Right? And in an instant, their entire self-image is shattered. So you have an entire generation that growing up with lowerself-esteem than previous generations.
而這樣長大的一群人,他們從學(xué)校畢業(yè),找到一份工作,猛地被推到真實世界里。他們一下子就發(fā)現(xiàn)自己并不特別,媽媽也不能讓他們獲得升遷,最后一名什么都沒有,而且,僅僅因為你想要,是沒辦法獲得的。一下子,他們的整個自我形象就破碎了。因此整整一代人都是帶著比前面的世代更低的自尊水平長大的。
The other problem to compound it is we are growing up in a facebook, Instagram world. Another word, we are good at putting filters on things. We are good at showing people that life is amazing eventhough I am depressed. So everybody sounds tough. And everybody sounds like theygot ererything figured out. And the reality is, there is very little toughness and most people don’t have it figured out. So when more senior people say what should we do, they sound like this is what you got at it and they have no clue.So you have an entire generation that growing up with lower self-esteem than previous generations through no fault of their own. Through no fault of theirown, right? They were dealt a bad hand.
另外一個我們要混合進(jìn)去的問題,就是我們成長在一個臉書、Instagram(中國是微博、微信等,譯者注)的世界里。換句話說,就是我們很擅長為事物加上濾鏡。我們很擅長展示給人們看自己的生活是多么美妙——即使我正身處抑郁之中。聽起來每個人都很強,聽起來他們知道所有事怎么做。但是事實是,他們并不強,而且大部分人并不明白。當(dāng)更資深地人們說我們應(yīng)該怎么做地時候,千禧一代會說,這就是你的做法?但他們其實并沒有想法。這代人帶著比前代人更低的自尊水平長大,但這并不是他們的錯。完全不是。他們是時運不濟。

Now, let’s add in technology. We know that engagement with social media and our cell phones, releases a chemical called DOPAMINE. That’s why when you get a text, feels good. Right? So you know allwhen you’re feeling a little bit down or feeling a bit lonely, and so you sendout 10 texts to 10 friends, you know hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, because it feels good when you get a response. It’s why we count the likes, it’s why we go back 10 times to see if it’s growing. If our Instagram is growing slower, I would(think): did I do something wrong? Did they not like me anymore? The trauma for young kids to be unfriended, right?
我們再加上科技看看。我們知道使用社交媒體和手機會釋放一種叫做多巴胺的化學(xué)物質(zhì),這就是為什么你收到一條消息的時候感覺良好。當(dāng)你感覺到失落或者孤單的時候,可以給十個朋友發(fā)十條消息,你跟他們打招呼hi,hi,hi,hi,hi。因為收到回復(fù)的時候感覺很好。這就是為什么我們會數(shù)點贊數(shù),也是為什么我們會再打開十次,去看數(shù)量有沒有增長。如果Instagram增長速度放慢,我會想我是不是做錯了什么事?他們是不是不再喜歡我了?年輕的孩子們被朋友刪除,就是巨大的創(chuàng)傷,對吧?
Because we know when you get it, you get a hit of dopamine, which feels good. It’s why we like it. It’s why we keep going back to it. Dopamine is the exact chemical that makes us feel good when we smoke, when we drink, and when we gamble. In other words, it’s highly, highly addictive. We have age restrictions on smoking, gambling, and alcohol. And we have no age restrictions on social medias and cellphones. Which is the equivalent of opening up the liquor cabinet and saying to our teenagers: hey bythe way, this adolescence thing, if it gets you down…
我們收到點贊的時候,就是一陣多巴胺的分泌,這感覺很好,這也是為什么我們會喜歡。這是為什么我們不斷的要回去看。而多巴胺正是在我們抽煙喝酒賭博的時候,讓我們感覺良好的那個化學(xué)物質(zhì)。換句話說,它是非常非常有成癮性的。對于抽煙喝酒賭博,我們有年齡的限制,但是對于社交媒體和手機,我們沒有年齡限制。這就等同于,對我們的青少年說啊,順便說一句,當(dāng)青春期這件事情讓你感覺有點低落的時候……(你懂的……)
But that’s basically what’s happening,right? That’s basically what happened. You have an entire generation that hasaccess to an addictive, numbing chemical called dopamine through social medias and cellphones as they are going through the high-stress of adolescence.
但是基本上這就是當(dāng)下的情形,不是嗎?我們這整整一代人,在高度壓力下的青春期,通過社交媒體和手機,接觸到高度成癮的、讓人麻木的化學(xué)物質(zhì),多巴胺。
Why is this so important? Almost every alcoholic discovered alcohol when they were teenagers. When we were very, veryyoung, the only approval we need is the approval of our parents. And as we gothrough adolescence, we make this transition where we now need the approval of our peers. Very frustrating for our parents, very important for us that allows us to acculturate outside of our immediate families into a broader tribe. It’sa highly highly stressful and anxious period of our lives and we are supposed to learn to rely on our friends.
為什么這一點這么重要呢,幾乎每一個酒精成癮者,都是在青春期發(fā)現(xiàn)了酒精的。在我們非常非常小的時候,我們只需要獲得父母的認(rèn)可就可以了。而當(dāng)我們進(jìn)入青春期,我們就轉(zhuǎn)化到需要同儕認(rèn)可的時期。這個時期對父母來說是非常沮喪的,對我們來說是非常重要的,它讓我們離開原生家庭,進(jìn)入到更大的部落。這個時期是我們生命當(dāng)中充滿巨大壓力和焦慮的時期,而我們原本應(yīng)該在這時候?qū)W會依靠朋友。

Some people quite by accident discover alcohol and numbing effects of dopamine to help them cope with the stress and anxieties of adolescence. Unfortunately, that becomes hard-wired in their brains. And for the rest of their lives, when they suffer from a significant stress,they will not turn to a person, they will turn to a bottle. Social stress,financial stress, career stress, that’s pretty much the primary reasons why alcoholic drinks, right?
有些人偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)了酒精和多巴胺的麻痹作用,這些東西幫助他們?nèi)?yīng)對青春期的壓力和焦慮。不幸的是,這種做法會成為他們的大腦當(dāng)中的自動化通路,在之后的人生當(dāng)中,每當(dāng)他們面對重大的壓力,他們不會去尋求他人的幫助,而是去拿酒瓶。社交壓力,財務(wù)壓力,事業(yè)壓力,這些是酒精成癮者喝酒的最主要原因,不是嗎?
What’s happening is because we are out allowing unfettered access to these dopamine producing devices, and media basically becoming hard-wired. What we are seeing is as they grow older, too many kidsdon’t know how to form deep meaningful relationships. Their words, not mine.They will admit, that many of their friendships are superficial. They will admit, that they don’t count on their friends, they don’t rely on their friends. They have fun with their friends. But they also know that their friends will cancel out them that something better comes along. Deep meaningful relationships are not there because they never practiced the skill set andworse, they don’t have the coping mechanisms to deal with stress. So when significant stress starts to show up in their lives, they are not turning to a person, theyare turning to a device, they are turning to social media, they are turning tothere things which offer temporary relief. We know. The science is clear. Weknow that people who spend more time on facebook suffer higher rates of depression than people spend less time on face book.
所以事實就是,因為我們允許自己過于無拘無束地接觸這些產(chǎn)生多巴胺的設(shè)備和媒體,他們變成了自動化的腦回路。我們看到,隨著他們的成長,有太多的孩子不知道如何去發(fā)展深層的有意義的關(guān)系——這是他們說的,不是我說的——他們承認(rèn)自己的許多友情是非常淺薄的;他們也承認(rèn),他們無法依靠和依賴他們的朋友;他們只和朋友一同享樂,但他們同時也知道,如果有更好玩的東西出現(xiàn),他們的朋友就會取消約會。深層次的、有意義的關(guān)系并不存在,他們從未練習(xí)過這些技能。更糟糕的是,他們并沒有應(yīng)對壓力的機制。因此,當(dāng)重大的壓力開始在生活當(dāng)中出現(xiàn)時,他們不會尋求他人的幫助,而是拿起這些設(shè)備,轉(zhuǎn)向社交媒體,轉(zhuǎn)向那些提供短暫釋放的東西。科學(xué)研究非常清楚的表明,在社交媒體上花更多時間的人們,比花更少時間的人們更有可能罹患抑郁癥。
These things needs to be Balanced. Alcohol is not bad, too much alcohol is bad; gambling is fun, too much gambling is dangerous. There is nothing wrong with social media and cellphones. It’s the imbalance.
這些東西需要平衡——酒并不是個壞東西,但喝太多就壞了;賭博很好玩,但過度賭博是非常危險的;社交媒體和手機本身并沒有錯,不平衡才是錯。
If you are sitting at dinner table with your friends, and you are texting somebody who is not there. That’s a problem. That’s addition. If youare sitting in a meeting, with people you are supposed to be listening to and speaking. And you put you phone on the table. Face up or face down. I don’tcare. That send a subconscious message to the room that you are not, just not important to me right now. That’s what happens and the fact that you cannot putit away, it’s because you are addicted. If you wake up and you check your phone before you say good morning to your girlfriend/boyfriend or your spouse, you have an addiction, and like all addictions, in time, it will destroy relationships. It will cost time and it will cost money, and it will make your life worse. So you have a generation growing up with lower self-esteem, andthat doesn’t have the coping mechanisms to deal with stress.
如果你正和朋友一起吃晚飯,卻給不在場的人發(fā)消息,這就是個問題,這是一種上癮。如果你坐在會議室,和那些你應(yīng)該要去聆聽和對話的人在一起,而你把手機放在桌上,無論手機屏幕是朝上還是朝下,都沒關(guān)系。這種行為本身就傳遞了一種潛意識的消息:在座的各位,你們對我來說并沒有那么重要。這個就是現(xiàn)在的狀況,而你沒有辦法把手機放在一邊,是因為你對它上癮。如果你早上醒來第一件事是看手機,而不是跟你的女朋友男朋友或者伴侶說早安,那么你就對手機上癮。跟所有上癮癥一樣,長此以往,都會破壞你的關(guān)系。這種上癮癥會讓你損失時間,損失金錢,讓你的生活變得糟糕。因此這一代人,帶著更低的自尊水平長大,也沒有發(fā)展出應(yīng)對壓力的機制。

Now you add in the sense of impatience.They’ve grown up in a world with instant gratification. You want to buy something, you go on Amazon, and it arrives the next day. You want to watch a movie, log on and watch a movie. You don’t check movie times. You want to watcha TV show, binge, you don’t even have to wait week to week to week. I know people who skip seasons, just so they can binge at the end of the season.
現(xiàn)在我們再加上缺乏耐心。這一代人生長在一個即時滿足的世界里,你想買任何東西,上亞馬遜網(wǎng)站,第二天就會被送到。你想要看一部電影?只需要登錄網(wǎng)站,就看了,也不需要去查看電影時間表。你想要看電視???根本不需要一周一周的等,我知道有些人會跳過一整季的劇集,這樣他們就可以直接看到本季的結(jié)局。
Instant gratification. You want to go on adate, you don’t even have to learn how to be like heyyyyyyyy. You don’t even have to learn and practice that skill. You don’t have to be the uncomfortable into when someone says yes when you mean no, when you mean no but yes when you … you just have to swipe, right? Bang! I am a stud! .Right?
即時滿足。
你希望去約會?甚至不需要去學(xué)習(xí)如何跟對方說:嘿~~(緊張地打招呼)。你都不需要學(xué)習(xí)和練習(xí)這些技巧,不需要讓自己去經(jīng)歷那些似是而非,忐忑不安,猜來猜去的不舒服。你只需要滑動手機,哇!我是個情圣!

You don’t have to learn the social coping mechanisms. Everything you want you can have I instantaneously. EVERYTHING you want! Instant gratification. Except, job satisfaction, strength ofrelationships. They aren’t no app for that. They are slow, meandering,uncomfortable, messy processes. And so I keep meeting these wonderful fantastic, idealistic, hard-working, smart kids. They’ve just graduated school. They are intheir entry-level job.
你不需要學(xué)習(xí)社交應(yīng)對機制,任何你想要的東西,立即就能得到。任何東西,即時滿足。除了工作滿意度,有力的關(guān)系,這些東西可沒有app。這些東西是緩慢的,曲折的,令人不舒服的,混亂的過程。我見到很多,非常棒的,理想主義的,努力工作的,聰明的小孩,他們剛剛從學(xué)校畢業(yè),這是初級的工作,我會坐下來跟他們聊天。
I sit down with them and I go, ’how is it going’, andthey go, ’ I think I am gonna quit.’
I like, ‘WHY? ’
They are like, ‘I am not making an impact.’
I am like, ‘you’ve been here 8 month!’
我問他們:“工作怎么樣?”他們說:“我想辭職了?!?/p>
我說:“為什么?”他們說:“我沒有發(fā)揮影響啊?!?/p>
我:“可是你剛剛到這里八個月??!”

It’s as if they are standing at the foot of a mountain, and they have this abstract concept called the impact that theywant to have in the world, which is the summit. What they don’t see is the mountain. I don’t care if you up the mountain quickly or slowly, but there’s still a mountain and so what this young generation needs to learn is patience.That something that really really matter like LOVE, or Job Fulfillment, JOY, Love of life, Self confidence, a skill set. Any of these things. All of these thingstake time. Sometimes you can expedite pieces of it. But the overall journey, isarduous and long and difficult. And if you don’t ask for help and learn that skill set, you will fall off the mountain. Or you will..
這就好像他們站在山腳下,他們有這種抽象的概念,叫做想要在世界上發(fā)揮影響力,它就好像是山頂。但他們看不見這座山,我并不在乎你爬上山頂是快還是慢?但你必須要往山上爬呀。因此,年輕一代需要學(xué)習(xí)的就是耐心。那些非常非常重要的事情,比如愛,工作的成就感,喜悅,熱愛生命,自信心,技能,所有這些東西都需要花時間。有些時候,在某一些方面你可以加速,但總體而言,整段旅程是險峻的,漫長的,困難重重的。假如你不尋求他人的幫助,也不學(xué)習(xí)這些技能,你就會掉下山崖。
The worst case scenario, the worst case scenario and we are already seeing it. The worst case scenario is we are seeing increase in suicide rates. We are seeing it increase in this generation. We are seeing in accidental deaths due to drug overdoses. We are seeing more and morekids drop out of school or take leaves or absence due to depression. Unheard of. This is really bad. The best cast scenario. Those are all bad case scenarios. The best case scenario, is you will have an entire population growing up and going through life and just never really finding joy. They will never really find deep deep fulfillment in work or in life. They will just walk through life and it will be just… It’s fine…
How is your job? It’s Fine. The same as yesterday.
How is your relationship? It’s Fine.
最糟糕的情景我們當(dāng)下已經(jīng)看到了:日益增長的自殺率,這代人自殺率的上升。還有吸毒過量造成的意外死亡。而且我們看到越來越多的孩子輟學(xué),或者因為抑郁癥請假。這些都非常糟糕。而最好的情景,是這整整一代人不斷長大,在過著生活卻從未找到喜悅。在工作和生活中,他們從未真正找到深層的滿足感。他們就只是過日子,就只是還好。
你的工作怎么樣?還好。跟昨天一樣唄。
你的人際關(guān)系怎么樣?還好。

That’s the best scenario. Which leads me tothe 4thpoint, which is environment. Which we are taking this amazing group of young fantastic kids who just dealt a bad hand. There is no fault of their own. And we put them in corporate environment that care more about the numbers than they do about the kids. They care more about the short-termgains than the long-term life of this young human-being. We care more about the year than the lifetime. And so we are putting them into the corporate environment that aren’t helping them to build their confidence, that aren’t helping them to learn the skills of cooperation, that aren’t helping them to overcome the challenges of the digital world and finding more balance,that isn’t helping them over come the needs of instant gratification and teach them the joys and impact and the fulfillment you get from working hard over on something for along time that cannot be done in a month or even in a year.
And so with thrusting to them intocorporate environment and the worst part about it is they think it’s them. They blame themselves. They think it’s them who can’t deal. And so it makes allworse.
這是最好的情景,剛好帶出第4點,就是環(huán)境。我們把這一群非常棒的,時運不濟的年輕人帶到公司里。公司的環(huán)境里,人們更關(guān)心數(shù)字,甚于關(guān)心年輕人;人們更在乎短息的收益,而非這些年輕人的長遠(yuǎn)人生;人們更在乎一年,而不是一生。我們將這一代人放進(jìn)了無法幫助他們建立自信、學(xué)習(xí)合作的技能的環(huán)境中,我們也無法幫助他們克服數(shù)碼世界的挑戰(zhàn)并找到更多平衡,無法幫助他們克服即時滿足的需要,無法教會他們從長期努力工作當(dāng)中獲得的喜悅、影響力和滿足感,這些東西是無法在一個月甚至一年當(dāng)中獲得的。
將這樣的一代人推到公司環(huán)境當(dāng)中,這里面最糟糕的部分是他們會認(rèn)為這是他們自己的錯。他們會責(zé)怪自己。他們認(rèn)為是自己沒辦法應(yīng)對。這樣想會讓事情更加糟糕。

It’s not! I am here to tell them, it’s not them. It’s the corporations. It’s the corporate environment. It’s totally lackof good leadership in our world today that is making them feel the way they do.They were dealt a bad hand and I hate it to say but it’s the company’sresponsibility.
Sucks to be you like we have no choice.
This is what we got and I wish the society and the parents did a better job, they didn’t. So we are getting them into our companies, and we now have to pick up the slack. We have to work extra hard to figure out the ways that we build their confidence. we have to work extra hardto find ways to teach them the social skills that they’ve missing out on.
這不是他們的錯,我來到這里就是要告訴他們,這不是他們的錯,公司沒錯,是公司環(huán)境出了問題。是因為在當(dāng)今世界上,缺乏好的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者讓他們感受到同樣的感受。千禧一代時運不濟。我很遺憾這樣說,但是,這是公司應(yīng)該擔(dān)負(fù)的責(zé)任。
不好意思,但我們沒有選擇。
這是現(xiàn)實,而我希望社會,希望父母們之前做得更好,但是他們沒有。因此我們既然將他們帶到了公司里,就需要收拾這個爛攤子。我們必須更努力地找到方法,建立他們的自信心。我們必須更努力地找到方法,教會他們那些之前錯失的社交技能。

There should be no cellphones in conferenceroom. None. Zero. And I don’t mean those sitting outside, waiting to text. I meanthat, when you sit in a meeting room, waiting for a meeting to start, this is not what we will do, we will sit here and waiting for a meeting to start.(texting on the phone). Oh, we will start the meeting. NO. that’s not how relationships are formed. Remember we talked about the little things?
Relationships are formed this way: we arewaiting for a meeting to start, we go:
how is your dad? Heard him in hospital.
Oh he is really good, Thanks for asking. Heis actually at home now.
I am really glad, that is really amazing.
I know. That was really scary for a moment.
That’s how to form relationships.
不能允許手機進(jìn)入會議室,完全不行。如果是在外面坐著等,發(fā)消息是可以的。我說的是,當(dāng)你坐在會議室里,等待會議開始時,不能(一邊看手機一邊等)會議開始。這種做法沒有辦法建立關(guān)系,記得我們之前所說的那些小事情嗎?關(guān)系是這樣建立的,我們在等待會議開始時,問另一個人:” 你爸爸怎么樣了?聽說他住院了?”
“他現(xiàn)在很好,謝謝你這么問。他其實已經(jīng)回家了?!?/p>
“很高興聽到這個,太棒了?!?/p>
“是啊,之前還挺嚇人的?!?/p>
這是關(guān)系建立的方式。
Hey, did you ever get the report done?
Oh my God, I didn’t.
I can help you out with that.
Oh, really?
嘿,你的報告完成了嗎?
哦天哪,沒有呢。
我可以幫你做。
真的嗎?
That’s how trust forms. Trust doesn’t form in an event in a day. Even bad times don’t form trust immediately. It’s the slow, steady, consistency, and we have to create mechanisms where we allow for those little innocuous interactions to happen. But when we allow cellphones in conference rooms, turns we just(play with cellphone). And my favorite is that when you have a cellphone there, and you go (head up and down to look the cellphone). It rings you go:’I am not gonna answer that… ’(keep looking at the cellphone) It’s the automatic mechanism.
這是信任建立的方式,通過一件事兒,或者在一天當(dāng)中是沒有辦法建立信任的,甚至危機時刻,信任也不能立即建立起來。它是通過緩慢的,穩(wěn)定的,持續(xù)的方式建立起來的。而我們需要創(chuàng)造一種機制,允許這些無傷大雅的互動發(fā)生。但當(dāng)我們允許手機進(jìn)入會議室的時候,我們就只會玩手機了。我最喜歡的場景,就是你放一個手機在那里,然后你會(不斷地抬頭、低頭看)當(dāng)手機響了,你可能說:我不接這個電話……(仍然不斷地看手機)這是一種自動化的機制。
When you have dinner with your friends, Ido this with my friends. When we go out for dinner, we are leaving together, we will leave our cellphones at home. Maybe we will bring 1 or 2 cellphones if we need to call a uber or take a picture of our meal. I am an idealist, I am not insane. And it looks really good. We will take one phone. It’s like alcoholic,the reason we take the alcohol out of our house, is we can’t trust our will power. We are just not strong enough. But when you remove the temptation, itactually makes it a lot easier. So when you just say don’t check you phone.People will literally go like this (check the phone). And somebody goes to the bathroom, what’s the first thing we do? (check the phone). Because I just don’twant to look around the bathroom for a minute and a half…
當(dāng)你跟朋友一起吃晚飯的時候,我會跟我的朋友這樣做,我們?nèi)ネ饷娉燥?,會一起走,我們把手機放在家里,或者我們只帶一兩部手機,用于呼叫uber,或者給食物拍照。我是個理想主義者,不是個瘋子。這樣做真的很好,我們會帶一部手機。這就好像是酒精上癮者一樣,為什么我們要把酒瓶全部清理出房子呢?因為我們不能信任我們的意志力,我們就是沒那么堅強。但當(dāng)我們把誘惑拿走的時候,就更容易克服它。當(dāng)你只是說不要看手機,人們做的卻是(看手機),
人們?nèi)ド蠋臅r候,第一件事兒做什么呢?(看手機)。因為我可不想在上廁所的一分半當(dāng)中,只看著廁所。

But if you don’t have the phone, you just kind of enjoy the world. And that’s where ideas happen. The constant constant constant engagements is not where you have ideas. Ideas happen when our mind wonder.. We see something and we think: I think I am gonna do that. It’s called innovation. We are taking away these little moments. You should not none of us should charge our phones by our beds. We should becharging our phones in the living room. Remove the temptation. You wake up in the middle of the night because you can’t sleep. You won’t check you phone. Which makes it worse. But if your phone is in the living room, it’s relaxed. You arefine. But it’s my alarm clock. Buy an alarm clock. It costs 8 dollars. I’ll buy you an alarm clock
但是如果你不拿手機,你就會去享受這個世界。這時候,想法才會發(fā)生。持續(xù)不斷的應(yīng)付手機消息,是沒有辦法產(chǎn)生想法的。當(dāng)我們的思維在徜徉的時候,想法才會發(fā)生??赡芪覀儠吹揭恍〇|西,然后我們會想,我可以這樣做,這就是創(chuàng)新。我們正在奪走這些小的時刻。任何人都不應(yīng)該在床邊為手機充電,我們應(yīng)該在客廳為手機充電,把誘惑移開。假如半夜醒來,沒有辦法再睡去,不要去看手機,看手機只能更讓你睡不著。但是假如你的手機在客廳,你就會放松下來,沒有問題。有人會說,這是我的鬧鐘啊,那么就去買一個鬧鐘,只需要花八美元,不然我給你買一個鬧鐘吧!
