解析:
The speaker has spent nearly two decades studying what makes people lucky and how to increase their chances of success. They’ve identified three key factors that contribute to luck:
- Taking small risks: The speaker emphasizes the importance of taking calculated risks that get you out of your comfort zone. This helps build a “sale" or an opportunity to catch the winds of luck.
- Showing appreciation: Acknowledging and expressing gratitude towards people who help you on your journey is crucial. It’s not just about closing loops, but also about recognizing the time and effort others invest in helping you.
- Changing your relationship with ideas: Rather than judging new ideas as good or bad, we should look at them through a lens of possibilities. This allows us to see potential in even seemingly terrible ideas.
The speaker shares personal anecdotes to illustrate these points:
- They recall taking a risk by striking up a conversation with a stranger on an airplane, which led to a publishing connection and eventually a bestselling book.
- They share the story of Brian, a student who was rejected from one of their fellowship programs twice but still expressed gratitude. This led to a collaboration between them, and Brian went on to start a successful company.
The speaker also shares tactics for fostering appreciation, such as sending thank-you notes every day after meeting with people.
Throughout the talk, the speaker emphasizes that luck is not just about being in the right place at the right time, but also about creating opportunities through small risks, gratitude, and a willingness to see potential in new ideas.
演講者花了近二十年時間研究是什麼讓人們幸運以及如何增加成功幾率。他們總結出三個促成運氣的關鍵因素:
- 敢於承擔小風險:演講者強調承擔經過計算的風險的重要性,這些風險會讓你走出舒適圈。這有助於促成“銷售”,或者說,抓住機遇,抓住好運。
- 表達感激:承認並感謝那些在你人生旅程中給予你幫助的人至關重要。這不僅關乎完成目標,也關乎認可他人為幫助你而投入的時間和精力。
- 改變你與想法的關係:與其評判新想法的好壞,不如用各種可能性的視角來看待它們。這能讓我們看到即使是看似糟糕的想法也蘊含著潛力。
講者分享了一些個人軼事來闡述這些觀點:
- 他們回憶起自己曾經在飛機上與一位陌生人攀談,並因此冒險,最終促成了出版界的合作,並最終創作出了一本暢銷書。
- 他們分享了布萊恩的故事。布萊恩是一名學生,曾兩次被他們的獎學金計畫拒絕,但仍然表達了感激之情。這促成了他們之間的合作,布萊恩最終創辦了一家成功的公司。
演講者也分享了培養感恩之心的技巧,例如每天與人見面後發送感謝信。
在整個演講過程中,演講者強調,運氣不僅僅是在正確的時間出現在正確的地點,還包括透過小風險、感恩之心以及樂於發現新想法的潛力來創造機會。
