Find a mentor
找一個(gè)導(dǎo)師
Luke had Yoda. The Karate Kid had Mr. Miyagi. I'm sure Kung Fu Panda had somebody but I never saw that movie. You get the picture. When I spoke to Anders Ericsson, the professor who did the research behind the "10,000 hour rule" he said mentors were vital. But you knew that already. So what does the research show about mentors that most people get wrong? Merely finding someone to help you that is already an expert doesn't cut it.
就像星際大戰(zhàn)中的盧克有絕地大師，龍威小子有宮城先生，功夫熊貓也有個(gè)師傅，雖然我沒(méi)有看過(guò)電影。但是我想你明白了有個(gè)導(dǎo)師重要性。曾為“一萬(wàn)個(gè)小時(shí)理論”作調(diào)研的Aders Ericsson, 說(shuō)有個(gè)導(dǎo)師對(duì)于成功是非常重要的。你們很多人都知道，也有導(dǎo)師,為什么最后的結(jié)果還是不理想，因?yàn)楹芏嗳硕紱](méi)有選對(duì)人。
When I spoke to Shane Snow, author of Smartcuts, he said your mentor needs to care about you. Here's Shane: In great mentorship relationships the mentor doesn't just care about the thing that you're learning, they care about how your life goes. They are with you for the long haul. They are willing to say, "No," and to tell you what you're doing is wrong. Those kinds of relationships yield outsized results in terms of future salaries and happiness.
我曾和《Smartcuts》的作者肖恩斯諾談及此事，他的觀點(diǎn)是導(dǎo)師不僅是在專(zhuān)業(yè)領(lǐng)域能幫助你的人，同時(shí)對(duì)你的生活也要有所關(guān)心。你們是長(zhǎng)期的指導(dǎo)關(guān)系，在你做的不當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候會(huì)適時(shí)阻止并且指點(diǎn)你。他會(huì)使你在將來(lái)的潛在收入和幸福感方面都獲益。
Start with what's important
先學(xué)關(guān)鍵的內(nèi)容
David Epstein put it simply: "The hallmark of expertise is figuring out what information is important." There are many components to any skill but practicing them all doesn't produce the same results. When I spoke to Tim Ferriss, bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek he said: Do an 80-20 analysis and ask yourself, "Which 20 percent of these things I need to learn will get me 80 percent of the results that I want?"
評(píng)判一個(gè)專(zhuān)家的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)就是對(duì)于重要信息判斷的準(zhǔn)確性。技能的訓(xùn)練有不同的方法，但達(dá)到的效果未必相同。暢銷(xiāo)書(shū)《The 4-Hour Workweek》的作者Tim認(rèn)為：二八原則可以幫助你分析，要學(xué)習(xí)哪20% 來(lái)達(dá)到80%的效果?
When Tim was learning chess from champion Josh Waitzkin (whose life was the basis for the film Searching for Bobby Fischer) they did things the opposite from how most chess instruction works. They didn't start with the beginning of a chess game. They jumped straight to key moves that are applicable to the majority of interactions on the board. This allowed Tim to hang with top players after only a few days of practice.
他師從Josh Waitzkin(基本是電影“王者之旅”的現(xiàn)實(shí)版)學(xué)習(xí)國(guó)際象棋，不同于先打基本功，而是在棋譜上學(xué)習(xí)足以招架大部分進(jìn)攻的招式。短短幾天Tim 就可以和高手對(duì)弈了。
The #4 "Train like you fight"
把每一次訓(xùn)練都當(dāng)成實(shí)戰(zhàn)
When I spoke to Special Forces Lieutenant Colonel Mike Kenny he told me, "Train like you fight." You want your practice to be as similar to the real thing as possible. And research backs Mike up. Not only will you be better prepared, but you learn much better when the context you practice in matches the context you will eventually perform in. How strong is this effect? Insanely strong.
當(dāng)我和特種部隊(duì)上尉Mike Kenny 取經(jīng)時(shí)，他說(shuō)秘訣是“把每一次訓(xùn)練都當(dāng)成實(shí)戰(zhàn)”。研究結(jié)果支持他的說(shuō)法，你需要的不僅僅是充分的準(zhǔn)備，只有自己帶入真實(shí)的情境來(lái)訓(xùn)練才能最終取得成績(jī)。那要多真實(shí)?越真實(shí)越好。
