Smart people, easy to be less pragmatic

Smart people have many advantages. First, smart people have strong logic, flexible thinking, and quick understanding of things, so they are often creative. Smart people often feel that they "quickly understand and have creative ideas" and think that nothing is difficult for them. Gradually, when looking at everything, "Easy Cognition" is born.

Smart people think that things are easy and they learn fast. Therefore, when they cooperate with their colleagues and subordinates and work with each other, they will become very slow and feel "stupid 」. Sometimes, when interacting with superiors and the outside world, they may show a contemptuous and impatient attitude. Over time, you may even "look down on others from the bottom of your mind", and it seems "arrogant, not forever 」.

The advantages of smart people mainly come from the superiority of logical reasoning. However, there is a great gap between logical reasoning and practical operation.

First, logical reasoning is "static" and assumes that the external environment remains unchanged. But the real practice involves the factors of "environment" and "people". Both of them are unpredictable, therefore, it is "dynamic 」. Furthermore, human factors are far more complex than the environment. Because, people of different backgrounds have thousands of different psychological, emotional, and behavioral differences, and the same person's reaction to the same thing at different points of time is often different. What's more, when people are still irrational, it is more difficult to predict and grasp. Therefore, adding the "people" and "environment" variables to logically feasible things will become very complicated and difficult.

However, how can we master dynamic practices? As a matter of fact, it is accumulated through observation and experience. The experience is not long enough, there are not many cases, and the depth and fire are not enough. That is to say, practice must rely on "pragmatic" to "experience and observe", which all take time and cannot be achieved quickly.

Some smart people actually recognize that they have "Easy habits" and want to strengthen the practical world. However, due to the deep-rooted "Easy habits" and the habit of "quick" In everything, the accumulation of "practical world" is still insufficient, unconsciously shrinking back to the "World of logical reasoning" that is good at and used, so that the power is always hard to be solid.

To avoid the above situation and to be pragmatic and smart, try to establish a reminder mechanism. When learning things, the idea of "I understand" is regarded as a warning, reminding myself that "it should not be so easy" and it may not be enough. Furthermore, we deliberately extend our practical experience by two or three times to realize the solid feeling of being involved in practice for a long time and improve the habit of unconsciously focusing on logical reasoning.

not pragmatic smart people, most of them only have medium achievements, and even are very down-to-earth. If they can be both smart and pragmatic, they must be human beings. When I study, do I often stay at a purely logical level? He deliberately asked him to bet more on "people" and "environment 」. As a result, logical reasoning and practical experience can gradually become a balance, which will also be relied upon by smart people to continuously increase their capabilities.
