"I want to learn a hobby, painting, guitar, swimming, foreign language or cooking, and I want to open a public account. I want to contribute to a magazine column; I want to do some small business on my own. I want to have a deep theme tour to this city that has lived for many years ......"
Have you ever heard similar voices in your heart. First of all, congratulations, you are not "used to" your current life. You are still pursuing your life. You are eager to have a richer and more complete life. However, how many of these sounds have been implemented by you, and how many of them have passed away in this way. Only occasionally, when you think of it, will you flash back to your mind and then disappear?
For myself, I belong to the typical former. "There are a lot of inner voices, but there are very few things to achieve ."
From both positive and negative experiences, I found that I did not do anything. "I want to write a book review, I want to contribute to the magazine column, and I want to run a public account ......"; Among the things I can often do are: "I will take the initiative to wash the bowl at home every day, and exercise every day ......".
Looking back on these experiences, I found that the things I did and turned into my own behavioral habits can be divided into two types: one is not much thinking, you only need mechanical work to see the results, such as washing dishes. The other is the persistence of "process-type". I think that as long as we do it, we will achieve it, rather than considering how good the results are, such as running every day.
I found that these two things can be done in daily life at a very low level, which poses a great risk to personal improvement. Mechanical work gives me an illusory feeling of filling in my daily life, but it does not actually benefit the improvement of human intelligence and spirit. "procedural" persistence does not care about the output of results, let me always stay at the elementary level of achieving one thing, just like I can swim, dance, and music, but I can only "speak a little ".
For those "I want to run a public account, I want to contribute to a magazine ......", They all use "I want to do this, I want to do that ......" At the beginning of the sentence, the expression is only the result of a large number of "desires", and there has never been a careful planning and implementation. That is to say, what I want is to "get without profit", that is, skip all the mental intelligence, labor, and other efforts, and get a result directly.
But sometimes I wonder, I thought about writing an article, contributing to a magazine, and operating a public account. But do I really think about it? For the sake of a result, a detailed time schedule, step implementation table, investigation, analysis, and the thinking of the solution were developed? Still, just by feeling and experience, sitting in front of the computer, just relying on the brain to think about the results you want.
I used to think that my lack of execution lies in my thinking too much. Only now can I find that I am not thinking about the lack of execution ability, or I don't think about the word "thinking.
To make a decision and then move forward, you must make an action, which means that you have come to a conclusion and thinking solution and a specific timetable for completing the action by observing, balancing, and comparing the reality, but I did not.
"Practice is the only criterion for testing truth." When you have an idea, a conclusion, or a scheme of action, whether or not to pass practical practices and experiments, in others' comments and their actual effects, compare the effect of self-completion.
Although the acceptance of ideas and actions by others means that our ideas may be overturned and our previous knowledge may be ineffective, all our achievements are not based on our own creations, provide professional products and services for others. Do you have any contact with others. I did not do this either.
Without careful consideration and a well-defined action plan, the consequence is that I often search for export through hasty and chaotic actions, but the result is exactly the opposite. After the reckless action, the energy consumption was nothing.
For those friends who have a lot of ideas like me, but lack the ability to put them into action, resulting in a low degree of completion of their ideas, "Expect nothing to gain; rush in action, too eager to get one or more results, however, they lack careful thinking and planning. They are afraid of being evaluated and their opinions being invalid or wrong, and refuse others' opinions." These may be the psychological barriers and misunderstandings that we all need to overcome. After all, they are not so easy and simple.
Why do we have a lot of ideas and few actions?
