Most of us go through通過 life trying
to do our best最好 at whatever隨你 we do,
0
760
4016
大多數人在生活中
都會嘗試把每件事做到最好,
00:16
whether是否 it's our job工作, family家庭, school學校
1
4800
2576
無論是在職場上、家庭、學校
00:19
or anything else其他.
2
7400
1200
或其它領域。
00:21
I feel that way. I try my best最好.
3
9240
1800
我也有同感,也會努力嘗試。
00:23
But some time ago, I came來了 to a realization實現
4
11920
2896
但前一段時間,我開始意識到,
00:26
that I wasn't getting得到 much better
at the things I cared照顧 most about,
5
14840
3776
我總是無法在
自己最在意的事情上做得更好。
00:30
whether是否 it was being存在 a husband丈夫 or a friend朋友
6
18640
3176
比如做一個好丈夫或好朋友,
00:33
or a professional專業的 or teammate隊友,
7
21840
2216
一名專業人士或好隊友,
00:36
and I wasn't improving提高
much at those things
8
24080
2016
我一直無法在
這些事情上有很大的提升,
00:38
even though雖然 I was spending開支 a lot of time
9
26120
2536
哪怕我花了很多時間
00:40
working加工 hard at them.
10
28680
1200
努力完成。
00:43
I've since以來 realized實現 from conversations對話
I've had and from research研究
11
31200
3376
我之後在與他人的談話
和研究中意識到,
00:46
that this stagnation停滯, despite儘管 hard work,
12
34600
2656
無論你多努力,
這種瓶頸總是一直出現。
00:49
turns out to be pretty漂亮 common共同.
13
37280
1736
00:51
So I'd like to share分享 with you
some insights見解 into why that is
14
39040
2856
所以我想跟各位分享一些見解,
00:53
and what we can all do about it.
15
41920
1524
並提出一些解決的辦法。
00:56
What I've learned學到了
is that the most effective有效 people
16
44160
2496
我所了解的是,
無論哪個領域,各行業的佼佼者
00:58
and teams球隊 in any domain
17
46680
1976
01:00
do something we can all emulate仿真.
18
48680
1640
都有可以讓我們仿效的地方。
01:03
They go through通過 life deliberately故意
alternating交替 between之間 two zones:
19
51000
4056
我發現,他們在日常生活中
會有意識地在這兩種狀態中切換,
01:07
the learning學習 zone
and the performance性能 zone.
20
55080
2080
學習狀態和執行狀態,
01:10
The learning學習 zone
is when our goal目標 is to improve提高.
21
58160
2656
在學習狀態,我們的技能可以進步。
01:12
Then we do activities活動
designed設計 for improvement起色,
22
60840
3096
我們會透過設計過的
活動來提升技能。
01:15
concentrating集中 on what
we haven't沒有 mastered掌握 yet然而,
23
63960
2456
專注于尚未掌握的事情,
01:18
which哪一個 means手段 we have to expect期望
to make mistakes錯誤,
24
66440
2456
這意味著我們一定會有失誤,
01:20
knowing會心 that we will learn學習 from them.
25
68920
1800
但我們也一定能從中學到東西。
01:23
That is very different不同 from what we do
when we're in our performance性能 zone,
26
71160
3736
這跟我們執行狀態時
所做的事情很不一樣,
01:26
which哪一個 is when our goal目標 is to do something
as best最好 as we can, to execute執行.
27
74920
4296
執行狀態的目的是把
我們最好的一面表現出來。
01:31
Then we concentrate集中
on what we have already已經 mastered掌握
28
79240
2616
我們會專注在已經掌握好的技能,
01:33
and we try to minimize最小化 mistakes錯誤.
29
81880
1760
並把失誤減到最小。
01:36
Both of these zones
should be part部分 of our lives生活,
30
84840
2416
這兩種狀態都是我們生活的一部分,
01:39
but being存在 clear明確 about
when we want to be in each of them,
31
87280
3256
但當你想要自在的處在這兩種狀態,
01:42
with what goal目標, focus焦點 and expectations期望,
32
90560
2296
你得清楚知道你的目標、關注點、
預期效果是什麼,
01:44
helps幫助 us better perform演出
and better improve提高.
33
92880
2816
這樣才能幫助你
在執行和改進方面都做得更好。
01:47
The performance性能 zone maximizes最大程度地增強
our immediate即時 performance性能,
34
95720
2936
執行狀態注重當下的表現,
01:50
while the learning學習 zone
maximizes最大程度地增強 our growth發展
35
98680
2096
學習狀態會加速人的成長,
01:52
and our future未來 performance性能.
36
100800
1286
並且提升未來的表現。
01:55
The reason原因 many許多 of us don't improve提高 much
37
103320
2056
很多人,無論如何努力
都沒辦法有所提高。
01:57
despite儘管 our hard work
38
105400
1736
原因在於:
01:59
is that we tend趨向 to spend almost幾乎
all of our time in the performance性能 zone.
39
107160
4000
我們總是花費太多時間在執行狀態。
02:03
This hinders阻礙 our growth發展,
40
111880
1376
這樣會阻礙成長。
02:05
and ironically諷刺地, over the long term術語,
also our performance性能.
41
113280
3080
諷刺的是,長時間下來,
也會引響我們的表現。
02:10
So what does the learning學習 zone look like?
42
118040
1960
那麽,學習狀態是怎樣的情況?
02:12
Take Demosthenes德摩斯梯尼, a political政治 leader領導
43
120760
2016
來看看狄摩西尼,這位政治領袖,
02:14
and the greatest最大 orator演說者
and lawyer律師 in ancient Greece希臘.
44
122800
2840
古希臘最偉大的演説家和律師。
02:18
To become成為 great,
he didn't spend all his time
45
126240
3655
他會偉大的原因,
不是因爲他把時間都花在
02:21
just being存在 an orator演說者 or a lawyer律師,
46
129919
2417
演説和執行律師業務上面,
02:24
which哪一個 would be his performance性能 zone.
47
132360
2176
也就是說他不會一直處在執行狀態。
02:26
But instead代替, he did activities活動
designed設計 for improvement起色.
48
134560
2620
相反的,他做了很多改善的活動。
02:29
Of course課程, he studied研究 a lot.
49
137600
1376
毋庸置疑,他花很多時間在學習。
02:31
He studied研究 law and philosophy哲學
with guidance指導 from mentors導師,
50
139000
2816
比如他在精神導師的指導下
學習法律及哲學,
02:33
but he also realized實現 that being存在 a lawyer律師
involved參與 persuading說服 other people,
51
141840
4536
但他也同時意識到,
作爲律師他需要説服別人,
02:38
so he also studied研究 great speeches演講
52
146400
2376
所以他也研究名人的演講
02:40
and acting演戲.
53
148800
1200
及學習演戲。
02:42
To get rid擺脫 of an odd habit習慣 he had
of involuntarily不由自主 lifting吊裝 his shoulder,
54
150640
4296
爲了改變不由自主聳肩的壞習慣,
02:46
he practiced his speeches演講
in front面前 of a mirror鏡子,
55
154960
2416
他會在鏡子前練習演說,
02:49
and he suspended暫停 a sword from the ceiling天花板
56
157400
2976
並且在天花板上吊一把劍。
02:52
so that if he raised上調 his shoulder,
57
160400
1736
一旦聳肩,
02:54
it would hurt傷害.
58
162160
1216
他就會被刺到。
02:55
(Laughter笑聲)
59
163400
1616
(觀衆笑)
02:57
To speak說話 more clearly明確地 despite儘管 a lisp口齒不清,
60
165040
2136
爲了克服口齒不清,
02:59
he went through通過 his speeches演講
with stones石頭 in his mouth.
61
167200
2840
他會含著石頭練習演講。
03:02
He built內置 an underground地下 room房間
62
170840
1376
他還建了一個地下室,
03:04
where he could practice實踐
without interruptions中斷
63
172240
2136
以避免練習時被打擾
03:06
and not disturb打擾 other people.
64
174400
1416
或打擾到別人。
03:07
And since以來 courts法院 at the time
were very noisy嘈雜,
65
175840
2136
因爲上法院時會很吵,
03:10
he also practiced by the ocean海洋,
66
178000
1856
所以他就對著大海練習,
03:11
projecting突出 his voice語音
above以上 the roar怒吼 of the waves波浪.
67
179880
2560
讓自己的聲音比咆哮的海浪還大聲。
03:15
His activities活動 in the learning學習 zone
68
183400
1696
他在學習狀態所做的活動
03:17
were very different不同
from his activities活動 in court法庭,
69
185120
2496
與他在法院上執行的活動,
03:19
his performance性能 zone.
70
187640
1280
兩者是很不一樣的。
03:21
In the learning學習 zone,
71
189760
1216
他在學習狀態時,
03:23
he did what Dr博士. Anders安德斯 Ericsson愛立信
calls電話 deliberate商榷 practice實踐.
72
191000
2776
會做安德森·愛立信博士所說的
「循序漸進的練習」。
03:25
This involves涉及 breaking破壞 down
abilities能力 into component零件 skills技能,
73
193800
3536
就是把要學習的技能
拆分成一小段一小段的技能,
03:29
being存在 clear明確 about what subskill次技巧
we're working加工 to improve提高,
74
197360
2896
並且清楚地知道哪一項技巧
目前需要提高。
03:32
like keeping保持 our shoulders肩膀 down,
75
200280
1976
像是放鬆肩膀,
全新專注在舒適圈以外
03:34
giving full充分 concentration濃度
to a high level水平 of challenge挑戰
76
202280
2856
更高層次的挑戰,
03:37
outside our comfort安慰 zone,
77
205160
1416
專注超越那些早已掌握的事物。
03:38
just beyond what we can currently目前 do,
78
206600
2336
利用快速反饋做重複練習和調整,
03:40
using運用 frequent頻繁 feedback反饋
with repetition重複 and adjustments調整,
79
208960
3216
03:44
and ideally理想 engaging the guidance指導
of a skilled技能的 coach教練,
80
212200
2976
全力配合熟手教練的指導。
因爲,為改善而設計的活動
03:47
because activities活動
designed設計 for improvement起色
81
215200
2056
是有特定範圍的,
03:49
are domain-specific特定領域,
82
217280
1256
好的老師或教練知道
什麽活動能帶來進步,
03:50
and great teachers教師 and coaches教練
know what those activities活動 are
83
218560
2896
並會給予專業的反饋。
03:53
and can also give us expert專家 feedback反饋.
84
221480
1880
03:55
It is this type類型 of practice實踐
in the learning學習 zone
85
223960
2696
就是在這種學習狀態下的練習,
才能大量的進步,
03:58
which哪一個 leads引線 to substantial大量的 improvement起色,
86
226680
1896
04:00
not just time on task任務 performing執行.
87
228600
2360
而不是只是花時間在執行業務上。
04:03
For example, research研究 shows節目
that after the first couple一對 of years年份
88
231960
3176
舉個例子,研究表明,
在某一領域工作數年後,
04:07
working加工 in a profession職業,
89
235160
1256
04:08
performance性能 usually平時 plateaus高原.
90
236440
2336
表現會達到停滯期。
04:10
This has been shown顯示 to be true真正
in teaching教學, general一般 medicine醫學,
91
238800
3056
這在教學、一般內科、
04:13
nursing看護 and other fields領域,
92
241880
1696
護理及其他領域都得到了印證。
04:15
and it happens發生 because once一旦 we think
we have become成為 good enough足夠,
93
243600
3736
這是因爲一旦
人們覺得自己足夠好了,
04:19
adequate充足,
94
247360
1216
綽綽有餘了,
04:20
then we stop spending開支 time
in the learning學習 zone.
95
248600
2256
就不會再花時間學習。
04:22
We focus焦點 all our time
on just doing our job工作,
96
250880
2176
我們只會關注在如何完成工作
04:25
performing執行,
97
253080
1216
和執行業務上,
04:26
which哪一個 turns out not to be
a great way to improve提高.
98
254320
2320
這種方式變得不利於提高技能。
04:29
But the people who continue繼續
to spend time in the learning學習 zone
99
257160
2936
但是那些一直在學習的人們,
04:32
do continue繼續 to always improve提高.
100
260120
2136
就會持續地成長。

最好的棋手,

not playing播放 games遊戲 of chess,
107
277000
3536
大部分的時間,
並不是在跟別人下棋,
04:52
which哪一個 would be their performance性能 zone,
108
280560
1936
也就是他們不會
一直處在執行的狀態,
04:54
but trying to predict預測 the moves移動
grand盛大 masters主人 made製作 and analyzing分析 them.
109
282520

而是試圖預測並分析大師們的棋路。
04:58
Each of us has probably大概 spent花費
many許多, many許多, many許多 hours小時
110
286920
4096
每個人可能都花了很多時間
05:03
typing打字 on a computer電腦
111
291040
1536
在電腦前打字,
05:04
without getting得到 faster更快,
112
292600
1576
但卻沒有越打越快。
05:06
but if we spent花費 10 to 20 minutes分鐘 each day
113
294200
3416
但是,如果我們每天
抽出 10-20 分鐘,
05:09
fully充分 concentrating集中
on typing打字 10 to 20 percent百分 faster更快
114
297640
3176
全神貫注地提升打字速度,
05:12
than our current當前 reliable可靠 speed速度,
115
300840
1576
比平常快上 10%-20% 就好,
05:14
we would get faster更快,
116
302440
1256
我們的速度就會越來越快。
05:15
especially特別 if we also identified確定
what mistakes錯誤 we're making製造
117
303720
3016
特別是當我們能找到失誤,
05:18
and practiced typing打字 those words.
118
306760
1960
並且專注加以練習。
05:21
That's deliberate商榷 practice實踐.
119
309400
1400
這就是一種循序漸進
(刻意)的練習。
05:24
In what other parts部分 of our lives生活,
120
312280
1736
在生活的其他方面,
05:26
perhaps也許 that we care關心 more about,
121
314040
1696
還有哪些是我們比較在意,
05:27
are we working加工 hard but not improving提高 much
122
315760
2536
我們很努力但進步緩慢的地方?
05:30
because we're always
in the performance性能 zone?
123
318320
2320
是不是因爲我們老是停留在
執行狀態裡?
05:34
Now, this is not to say
that the performance性能 zone has no value.
124
322560
2976
但以上都不是在說執行狀態沒有用,
05:37
It very much does.
125
325560
1216
它是很有價值的。
05:38
When I needed需要 a knee膝蓋 surgery手術,
I didn't tell the surgeon外科醫生,
126
326800
2656
但我需要做膝蓋手術的時候,
我可不想告訴醫師:
05:41
"Poke around in there
and focus焦點 on what you don't know."
127
329480
2656
「隨便戳戳吧,
探索一下你不知道的事。」
05:44
(Laughter笑聲)
128
332160
1016
(觀衆笑)
05:45
"We'll learn學習 from your mistakes錯誤!"
129
333200
1600
「我們可以從失誤中學到東西啊!」
05:47
I looked看著 for a surgeon外科醫生
who I felt would do a good job工作,
130
335680
3256
我會找一位我認爲夠好的醫師,
05:50
and I wanted her to do a good job工作.
131
338960
1640
我想讓她好好地幫我醫治。
05:53
Being存在 in the performance性能 zone
132
341160
1416
在執行狀態時,
05:54
allows允許 us to get things doneDONE
as best最好 as we can.
133
342600
2640
我們會力求表現到最好,
05:57
It can also be motivating激勵,
134
345800
1376
這樣可以激勵我們,
05:59
and it provides提供 us with information信息
to identify鑑定 what to focus焦點 on next下一個
135
347200
3576
並告訴我們,
在回到學習狀態的時候,
該關注些什麽。
06:02
when we go back to the learning學習 zone.
136
350800
2296
06:05
So the way to high performance性能
137
353120
1696
所以說,想要表現得好
06:06
is to alternate備用 between之間 the learning學習 zone
and the performance性能 zone,
138
354840
3696
需要在學習狀態
和執行狀態之間轉換。
06:10
purposefully目的地 building建造 our skills技能
in the learning學習 zone,
139
358560
2536
在學習狀態下有目的性地積累技巧,
06:13
then applying應用 those skills技能
in the performance性能 zone.
140
361120
2400
然後再將之應用在執行狀態裡。
06:16
When Beyonc碧昂斯é is on tour遊覽,
141
364560
2016
就像碧昂斯的巡演,
06:18
during the concert音樂會,
she's in her performance性能 zone,
142
366600
3176
演唱會上,她處在執行表演的狀態,
06:21
but every一切 night when she
gets得到 back to the hotel旅館 room房間,
143
369800
2496
但每晚回到酒店,
06:24
she goes right back
into her learning學習 zone.
144
372320
2216
她就直接投入到學習狀態裡。
06:26
She watches手錶 a video視頻
of the show顯示 that just ended結束.
145
374560
2776
她會觀看剛剛結束的表演,
06:29
She identifies識別 opportunities機會
for improvement起色,
146
377360
2136
爲自己、舞群和攝像師,
06:31
for herself她自己, her dancers舞者
and her camera相機 staff員工.
147
379520
2616
尋找改進的機會。
06:34
And the next下一個 morning早上,
148
382160
1256
第二天早上,
06:35
everyone大家 receives收到 pages網頁 of notes筆記
with what to adjust調整,
149
383440
3056
所有人都會收到一份通知,
上面寫著那些地方需要改進,
06:38
which哪一個 they then work on during the day
before the next下一個 performance性能.
150
386520
3976
如此團隊成員就可以在
下一次表演之前做出調整。
06:42
It's a spiral螺旋
151
390520
1216
如此團隊的能力
06:43
to ever-increasing不斷增加 capabilities功能,
152
391760
1576
就可以一直向上提升。
06:45
but we need to know when we seek尋求 to learn學習,
and when we seek尋求 to perform演出,
153
393360
3616
但我們需要清楚的是,
何時「學」、何時「做」,
06:49
and while we want
to spend time doing both,
154
397000
2056
何時兩樣一起。
06:51
the more time we spend
in the learning學習 zone,
155
399080
2096
投入越多時間在學習狀態,
06:53
the more we'll improve提高.
156
401200
1240
就能取得越多的進步。
06:55
So how can we spend
more time in the learning學習 zone?
157
403360
2400
那麽我們要怎樣才能
多花點時間在學習狀態呢?
06:59
First, we must必須 believe and understand理解
158
407040
3176
首先,要相信並理解一件事,
07:02
that we can improve提高,
159
410240
1336
那就是我們可以改進,
07:03
what we call a growth發展 mindset心態.
160
411600
1520
也就是所謂的「成長心態」。
07:05
Second第二, we must必須 want
to improve提高 at that particular特定 skill技能.
161
413840
3256
其次,要在具體的技巧上做改進。
07:09
There has to be a purpose目的 we care關心 about,
162
417120
1936
並且要有一個我們在乎的目標,
07:11
because it takes time and effort功夫.
163
419080
1600
因爲它需要時間和努力。
07:13
Third第三, we must必須 have an idea理念
about how to improve提高,
164
421360
3016
第三,我們必須要知道該如何提升,
07:16
what we can do to improve提高,
165
424400
1696
要做些什麽來提升,
07:18
not how I used to practice實踐
the guitar吉他 as a teenager青少年,
166
426120
2576
而不是像我年輕時彈吉它那樣,
07:20
performing執行 songs歌曲 over and over again,
167
428720
2096
同首曲子一遍又一遍的重複,
07:22
but doing deliberate商榷 practice實踐.
168
430840
1480
而是要做「循序漸進的練習」。
07:24
And fourth第四, we must必須 be
in a low-stakes低風險 situation情況,
169
432960
3600
第四,我們必須保持在低風險狀態,
07:29
because if mistakes錯誤 are to be expected預期,
170
437160
2216
因爲如果如預期的發生了失誤,
07:31
then the consequence後果 of making製造 them
must必須 not be catastrophic災難性的,
171
439400
3016
那麽造成的後果就不會影響太大,
07:34
or even very significant重大.
172
442440
1240
或是關係重大。
07:36
A tightrope拉緊的繩索 walker助步車 doesn't practice實踐
new tricks技巧 without a net underneath,
173
444240
3696
走鋼絲的演員,
不會在沒有護網的情況下
練習新的技巧;
07:39
and an athlete運動員 wouldn't不會 set out
to first try a new move移動
174
447960
2616
運動員並不會在冠軍比賽中,
07:42
during a championship錦標賽 match比賽.
175
450600
1334
嘗試新的動作。
07:45
One reason原因 that in our lives生活
176
453120
1656
我們在生活中,
花很多時間在執行狀態裡,
07:46
we spend so much time
in the performance性能 zone
177
454800
2456
這箇中原因是:
07:49
is that our environments環境
often經常 are, unnecessarily不必要的, high stakes賭注.
178
457280
4080
我們常常處在不必要的
高風險環境中。
07:54
We create創建 social社會 risks風險 for one another另一個,
179
462200
2216
我們彼此製造了社會風險。
07:56
even in schools學校 which哪一個 are supposed應該
to be all about learning學習,
180
464440
2856
哪怕是在學校,一個被認定為
純粹學習的地方,
07:59
and I'm not talking
about standardized標準化 tests測試.
181
467320
2136
我不是在說標準測驗,
08:01
I mean that every一切 minute分鐘 of every一切 day,
182
469480
2216
我說的是學生每時每刻、
08:03
many許多 students學生們 in elementary初級
schools學校 through通過 colleges高校
183
471720
2696
從小學到大學,
08:06
feel that if they make a mistake錯誤,
others其他 will think less of them.
184
474440
3416
都會覺得別人會因為
他們犯錯而輕視他們。
08:09
No wonder奇蹟 they're always stressed強調 out
185
477880
1936
難怪他們總是緊張兮兮,
08:11
and not taking服用 the risks風險
necessary必要 for learning學習.
186
479840
2240
不願為學習冒必要的風險。
08:14
But they learn學習
that mistakes錯誤 are undesirable不可取
187
482760
2256
老師、家長對正確答案
趨之若鶩的態度,
08:17
inadvertently不經意間
188
485040
1256
無意中,
08:18
when teachers教師 or parents父母
are eager急於 to hear just correct正確 answers答案
189
486320
3496
讓學生害怕犯錯。
08:21
and reject拒絕 mistakes錯誤
rather than welcome歡迎 and examine檢查 them
190
489840
2656
而不是勇於試錯、檢視過錯、
08:24
to learn學習 from them,
191
492520
1256
並從中吸取教訓。
08:25
or when we look for narrow狹窄 responses回复
192
493800
1736
又或者,我們只想聽「標準答案」,
08:27
rather than encourage鼓勵
more exploratory探索 thinking思維
193
495560
2216
而不是鼓勵學生進行
可以學到更多的開拓性思考。
08:29
that we can all learn學習 from.
194
497800
1336
08:31
When all homework家庭作業 or student學生 work
has a number or a letter on it,
195
499160
3096
一旦學生的作業、作品
都被評定等級、標上分數,
08:34
and counts計數 towards a final最後 grade年級,
196
502280
1736
最後記錄到期末成績後,
08:36
rather than being存在 used for practice實踐,
mistakes錯誤, feedback反饋 and revision調整,
197
504040
3576
它們就起不到練習、試錯、
反饋和修正的作用了,
08:39
we send發送 the message信息
that school學校 is a performance性能 zone.
198
507640
3200
我們讓孩子誤以為:
學校只是個讓你表現的地方。
08:44
The same相同 is true真正 in our workplaces工作場所.
199
512240
2056
職場中也同樣如此。
08:46
In the companies公司 I consult請教 with,
I often經常 see flawless完美無瑕 execution執行 cultures文化
200
514320
4016
那些諮詢我的公司,
我常見到領導者鼓勵推動
08:50
which哪一個 leaders領導者 foster培育
to encourage鼓勵 great work.
201
518360
2576
「完美執行 」的文化。
08:52
But that leads引線 employees僱員
to stay within what they know
202
520960
2536
但這樣就會導致員工
僅僅停留在他們已知的範疇,
而不去嘗試新的事物,
08:55
and not try new things,
203
523520
1256
08:56
so companies公司 struggle鬥爭
to innovate創新 and improve提高,
204
524800
2336
公司因此很難創新、進步,
08:59
and they fall秋季 behind背後.
205
527160
1200
從而落居下風。
09:01
We can create創建 more spaces空間 for growth發展
206
529960
2296
我們可以透過交流,
09:04
by starting開始 conversations對話 with one another另一個
207
532280
2056
為彼此開創進步的空間,
09:06
about when we want to be in each zone.
208
534360
2280
聊聊我們何時應該投身于何種狀態。
09:09
What do we want to get better at and how?
209
537240
2696
在哪些方面可以做得更好?
09:11
And when do we want
to execute執行 and minimize最小化 mistakes錯誤?
210
539960
3000
何時決策、怎樣控損?
09:15
That way, we gain獲得 clarity明晰
about what success成功 is,
211
543680
3016
如此,我們可以明確什麽是成功、
09:18
when, and how to best最好 support支持 one another另一個.
212
546720
2080
何時以及如何去支持對方。
09:22
But what if we find ourselves我們自己
in a chronic慢性 high-stakes高風險 setting設置
213
550000
3096
但如果我們處在長期高風險狀態下,
09:25
and we feel we can't
start開始 those conversations對話 yet然而?
214
553120
2720
並且無法展開這樣的交流怎麽辦?
09:28
Then here are three things
that we can still do as individuals個人.
215
556720
3096
依然有三件事
是可以自己著手去做的。
09:31
First, we can create創建 low-stakes低風險 islands島嶼
in an otherwise除此以外 high-stakes高風險 sea.
216
559840
4280
首先,是在高風險的海洋中,
開闢一塊低風險的島嶼。
09:36
These are spaces空間 where mistakes錯誤
have little consequence後果.
217
564640
2736
讓錯誤發生時不會造成嚴重的後果。
09:39
For example, we might威力 find
a mentor導師 or a trusted信任 colleague同事
218
567400
3456
比如説,我們可以找一位導師
或可以信任的同事,
09:42
with whom we can exchange交換 ideas思路
or have vulnerable弱勢 conversations對話
219
570880
3176
和他們分享想法,或是接受批評。
09:46
or even role-play角色扮演.
220
574080
1376
甚至角色扮演。
09:47
Or we can ask for feedback-oriented反饋為導向
meetings會議 as projects項目 progress進展.
221
575480
3616
或者是隨著項目的進展,
舉辦反饋會議。
09:51
Or we can set aside在旁邊 time to read
or watch videos視頻 or take online線上 courses培訓班.
222
579120
4136
又或者我們可以抽出時間去閱讀
或看視頻或是參加線上課程。
09:55
Those are just some examples例子.
223
583280
1400
這只是幾個例子。
09:57
Second第二, we can execute執行
and perform演出 as we're expected預期,
224
585360
4176
第二,我們可以實踐
並達成期望的表現,
10:01
but then reflect反映 on what
we could do better next下一個 time,
225
589560
2576
但事後反思如何改進,
10:04
like Beyonc碧昂斯é does,
226
592160
1256
就像碧昂斯那樣。
10:05
and we can observe and emulate仿真 experts專家.
227
593440
2136
我們還可以觀察和模仿專家,
10:07
The observation意見, reflection反射
and adjustment調整 is a learning學習 zone.
228
595600
3520
這些觀察、反思、調整
都能讓我們學習到很多。
10:11
And finally最後, we can lead
229
599880
2200
最後,我們可以引導
10:14
and lower降低 the stakes賭注 for others其他
by sharing分享 what we want to get better at,
230
602760
3576
並降低彼此的風險,問他們,
我們在哪方面可以再取得進步,
10:18
by asking questions問題
about what we don't know,
231
606360
2496
透過詢問未知的問題、
10:20
by soliciting拉客 feedback反饋
and by sharing分享 our mistakes錯誤
232
608880
2496
徵求意見、 分享失誤,
10:23
and what we've我們已經 learned學到了 from them,
233
611400
1616
並從中汲取教訓,
10:25
so that others其他
can feel safe安全 to do the same相同.
234
613040
2080
如此其他人
也就能安心地做同樣的事。
10:27
Real真實 confidence置信度 is about
modeling造型 ongoing不斷的 learning學習.
235
615760
3520
真正的自信是對不斷學習的展示。
10:32
What if, instead代替 of spending開支
our lives生活 doing, doing, doing,
236
620880
4456
如果,我們沒有把人生
耗費在做、做、做、
10:37
performing執行, performing執行, performing執行,
237
625360
2096
表現、表現、表現上,
10:39
we spent花費 more time exploring探索,
238
627480
2280
而是更多地去探索、
10:42
asking,
239
630640
1416
詢問、
10:44
listening,
240
632080
1296
傾聽、
10:45
experimenting試驗, reflecting反映,
241
633400
3096
實踐、反思、
10:48
striving努力 and becoming變得?
242
636520
2480
拼命去成為想成為的人,會怎麽樣?
10:52
What if we each always had something
243
640320
2816
如果我們每個人,都有某些事情
10:55
we were working加工 to improve提高?
244
643160
1520
讓我們可為之努力,從而提升呢?
10:57
What if we created創建 more low-stakes低風險 islands島嶼
245
645760
2416
如果我們創造更多的低風險區域
11:00
and waters水域?
246
648200
1200
和環境呢?
11:01
And what if we got clear明確,
247
649840
2456
如果我們自己
或整個團隊都清楚知道,
11:04
within ourselves我們自己 and with our teammates隊友,
248
652320
2376
11:06
about when we seek尋求 to learn學習
and when we seek尋求 to perform演出,
249
654720
3536
何時學習、何時表現,
11:10
so that our efforts努力
can become成為 more consequential後果,
250
658280
3056
如此我們的努力就會有更多回報,
11:13
our improvement起色 never-ending沒完沒了
251
661360
2656
就可以精益求精,
11:16
and our best最好 even better?
252
664040
2280
團隊就會越來越好。
11:19
Thank you.
