像运动员那样学习(节选译文)

    詹尼斯勒布朗并不是总是有萝卜腿,汹涌的六块腹肌以及浩克般的粗粗的胳膊。

    原文:LeBron James didn't always have thick calves, a raging six-pack, and arms like the Incredible Hulk.

    six-pack 六块腹肌

    a raging six-pack

    形容人外行的词汇:

    bushy eyebrows 浓眉毛

    double eyelid/ double-fold eyelid 双眼皮

    slanted eyes 丹凤眼

    a beauty-spot 美人痣

    with dimples 带有酒窝

    delicate fingers 修长的手指

    运动员训练,音乐家训练,演员训练。但是脑力工作者并不训练。

    原文:Athletes train. Musicians train. Performers train. But knowledge workers don't.

    脑力工作者就应该像勒布朗那样训练,执行严格的学习计划。我们可以确定的是智力工作与篮球并不相同。成功很难衡量,进步不那么明显。尽管这样,我们还是可以学习顶级运动员训练的方式。顶级运动员目标清晰,以一种深思熟虑的方式追求进步。

    原文:Knowledge workers should train like LeBron, and implement strict "learning plans." To be sure, intellectual life is different from basketball. Success is harder to measure and the metrics for improvement aren't quite as clear. Even then, there's a lot to learn from the way top athletes train. They are clear in their objectives and deliberate in their pursuit of improvemt.

    林语堂曾说过学习语言的灵魂在于模仿,所以我们就来模仿一下这一段原文中的最后一句话。

    They are clear in their objectives and deliberate in their pursuit of improvemt.

    粗体部分的英文可以形容一个人有目标感,步步为营(这里取其褒义意思)

    而且粗体部分的英文非常对称,adj.+in+n and adj.+in+n

    造句: Zhouxingchi is clear in his objectives and deliberate in his pursuit of improvement so that he created many masterpiece and became a famous director.

    脑力工作者应该模仿他们。

    原文:Knowledge workers should imitate them.

    学习计划是什么样的?

    与勒布朗通过系统训练的方式拿到世界冠军类似,脑力工作者应该学着怎么去打造技能,完成项目,增加创造力。有了更有效的体系,我们可以学得更快,有更多乐趣去做这件事。

    原文:Similar to how LeBron structures his training to win championships, knowledge workers should train to build skills,complete projects,and increase their productive power. Armed with an effective system, we'll learn faster and have more fun doing it.

    就算在最有野心的个体里,学习计划也是稀少的。大多数人总是在回应,而不是计划。就像冲浪者在汹涌的海面屈服于他们所处的环境一样。他们只是把注意力放在永无止境的短信消息,朋友推荐和社交媒体推送上。

    原文: Even among the most ambitious individuals, learning plans are rare. Most people are reactive. They don't plan. Like surfers in a violent ocean, they surrender to their environment. They direct their attention towards the never-ending shouts of email newsletters, friend recommendations,and social media feeds.

    例句:They direct their attention towards the never-ending shouts of email newsletters, friend recommendations,and social media feeds.

    造句: They direct their attention towards the never-ending pleasure-seeking games, short video with void content and social media feeds so that they surrender to the outside world and be a walking dead lingering on the spiritual desert.

    我们应该做什么?

    进行一次为期3个月的短程学习旅途,每一个季度投身于新的学习计划。

    就算是很长的项目也只是一系列的短期任务。既然知道了这个事实,你就应该把项目拆分为每日小任务以及每周目标,以便于及时完成项目。

    原文:What should you do?

    Learn in three-month sprints and commint to a new learning project every quarter.

    Even the longest projects are simply a cllection of short term tasks. Knowing thta ,you should break down the project into daily increments, and create a series of daily and weekly goals to learn the skills required to complete the project on time.

    最终目标应该清晰。以写下你未来的积极愿景开始。专注于完成最终目标,而不是技能本身。举个例子,我专注于我的终极目标“前进,我微博里所有的图标,图片将会是手绘的”而不是说“我想学如何去画画”。

    原文:For example, rather than saying"I want to learn how to draw," I focused on the end goal:"moving forward,all the charts,graphs,and images on my website will be hand-drawn."

    我喜欢丹尼尔格罗斯的学习体系。当我采访他时,他告诉我给自己建一个电子游戏。就像电子游戏一样,有成效的项目有许多级别。他们遵从最适原则:不会太简单,也不会太难。学习计划应该有需要集中注意力才可以应对的挑战,但同时也应该简单的使进程可以维持下去。那样的话,你可以进入学习的最佳状态。

    原文:I like Daniel Gross' framework for learning. When I interviewed him, he told me to build a video game for myself.Like a video game, productive projects have multiple levels. They follow the Goldilock Principle:not too easy, not too hard. The learning project needs to be challenging enough to demand focus, but easy enough to make consistent progress. That way, you can enter the optimal state of learning.

    如果你在学习的过程中发表你的成果,那就更好了。分享你的成果是加速你的反馈闭环最好的方式,这使你学得更快,并且可以根据你收到的反馈改进你的计划。

    原文:if you can publish your findings along the way,even better. Sharing your work is the best way to speed up your feedback loops, which will help you learn faster and improve your plan based on the feedback you receive.

    如果你要学习编程,把你的计算机软件放在编程网站上;如果你要学习吉他,就把你的音乐放在社交软件上;如果你要增强写作技能,就开始写博客。分享你的作品就像邀请朋友来家做客一样。这将会使你思路更清晰,二度检查你的一切,加快学习进程。

    原文:If you want to learn to code, post your software on Github;if you want to learnguitar,share your music on social media;and if you want to improve your writing,start a blog.Sharingyour work is like inviting friends to your home.It forces you to be clean and double check everything, which accelerates the learning process.
