事情的难易程度不同,我们的感受会不同。太容易,会觉得没意思;太难,会觉得没动力。
- 所以,我们要找准一个点,让我们觉得刚刚好。就是所谓的Goldilocks Rule.
- 引申到教育孩子身上,我们引导孩子的时候,要把握好难度。不要太难,孩子会知难而退。要让孩子在完成这件事情后,觉得有成就感。
The Goldilocks Rule states that humans experience peak motivation when working on tasks that are right on the edge of their current abilities.
In psychology research this is known as the Yerkes–Dodson law, which describes the optimal level of arousal as the midpoint between boredom and anxiety.
Maximum motivation occurs when facing a challenge of just manageable difficulty.
The greatest threat to success is not failure but boredom.
As habits become routine, they become less interesting and less satisfying. We get bored.
Anyone can work hard when they feel motivated. It’s the ability to keep going when work isn’t exciting that makes the difference.
Professionals stick to the schedule; amateurs let life get in the way.
