Eleven of the Eighteen Laws-Occam's Razor

Occam's razor is a "reactionary" philosophy. The continuous development of human civilization means constantly adding new contents to the world, but Occam's razor constantly challenges the achievements of our civilization, pointing out that many things are actually harmful and useless, and we are being overwhelmed by these self-made troubles. Enjoy a simple life

Peter and others.

People often feel that they have been busy all day and haven't done anything yet, but time always passes unconsciously.

For most people, work and commuting take up a whole day. Modern life is full of temptations, so much information to sift through and so many products to attract you. "We try to have everything, which often makes us exhausted." Therefore, a simple life is valuable to most people.

Simplifying our life means distinguishing things that cost us money, time and energy, and then taking measures to get rid of them. Here are some suggestions on how to get rid of the chaos in life and have fun:

1. Before starting a new day, try to get everything you need for the next day the night before.

For example, buy a coffee pot that can be timed and start making coffee automatically when you get up; decision

Clothes to be worn, including jewelry, scarves and socks; Check clothes for stains, wrinkles or buttons; Put anything that needs to be taken out in front of the door. Always put the keys in the same place. Research shows that every adult spends 16 hours looking for lost keys every year.

Clean up your home, and everything you buy needs to be taken care of.

Start with a little bit! Organize one drawer or shelf at a time. If not, throw it away. Being organized is a good habit, which can prevent clutter in the collection process. Never "casually" put things there temporarily, don't "temporarily" put a jacket on a chair or "temporarily" put a cup in the sink.

As people often say, "Don't put things down, but put them away." If you don't do this, it means that you haven't finished it once now, and you must do it at least twice in the future.

3. Say "no" euphemistically.

"No" is just a simple word, but it can help people save a lot of time in a week. Say "no" euphemistically and quickly, give short reasons, such as "I really don't have time", and avoid too detailed reasons, because others may find out why you can't refuse any more.

Don't waste time by saving money.

Most of us are taught to save money, but we don't know how to save time. Therefore, we may not even consider that we waste more precious time in order to save a few cents. Is it really worth wandering around the flea market to find an easel hook that can be seen at a glance at the hardware store near your home? Spend hours waiting outside the hotel for take-out, but in fact, with a little tip, you can get the take-out delivered to your door. Don't prevaricate yourself with the excuse "I can't afford this money", otherwise, the price you pay is that you have wasted it.

Twice the time to think about the same problem.

5. Turn off your TV.

For many people, life would be much simpler if they spent 1/3 of their time in a semi-hypnotic state near the TV. Experts suggest that before watching TV guides, you should arrange your own activity schedule, decide what programs you want to watch, record the programs, and then turn off the TV immediately. Then use some fixed time, such as dinner or Sunday afternoon, to watch recorded TV programs. This will save you time waiting in front of the TV.

After you follow the advice of these experts, your life will definitely become simpler than before.

And when your life becomes simple, what can you get from it? You will have time to do what you like again, whether it is playing with children, listening to your favorite music or traveling.

Enjoy your simple life, there is nothing better!

Ten of the Eighteen Laws-Mushroom Law

"Mushroom Law" is a management method that is very suitable for organizations to treat fledglings. Novices are placed in a dark corner (neglected departments or errands), poured with shit (unwarranted criticism, accusations, and generations of people), and left to fend for themselves (without necessary guidance and support). The only way out for young people

Peter and others.

Many opportunities in your career are obtained in every monotonous work practice. If you don't want to engage in monotonous work from the beginning, you will never get a chance of promotion! Only by throwing yourself into social life and wrestling in life will you know that the opportunities you can meet are endless.

Therefore, the experience of "mushroom" can play three roles in your career:

First of all, eliminate unrealistic illusions.

Many young people, when they leave campus, always have high expectations for themselves, thinking that they should be reused at the beginning of their work and should be paid quite handsomely. They like to compare with each other in salary, which seems to be the only criterion for them to measure each other's value. But in fact, young people who have just entered the society lack work experience, can't be entrusted with important tasks, and their salaries can't be very high, so they complain a lot.

Once it is not reused, the salary can not meet their expectations, and the dream of campus weaving is gradually shattered. Without self-confidence and enthusiasm, I always take a coping attitude at work, do as little as possible, avoid as much as possible, and perfunctory.

Therefore, for them, the first job is to get rid of unrealistic fantasies and realize that no job is humble and inexperienced.

Second, eliminate complacency.

For beginners, Louis Vuitton sunglasses always hope that their bosses and colleagues will pay attention to themselves after completing their work and making achievements, and it is best to add a compliment or two; When you encounter setbacks and do something wrong, you always feel that others have been staring at you and are ready to blame yourself. But everyone has their own heavy work and life troubles, and no one has time to pay attention to others deliberately.

In an organization, it is not a good idea to express and express rash opinions in order to get the attention of superiors and colleagues. This will not only easily arouse the resentment of the old employees, but also give people the impression of boasting and being careless.

Third, wear off the edges and corners to adapt to society.

If you want to be comfortable in the shopping mall, you should not only have professional knowledge and technology, but also have various basic abilities. However, these abilities alone are not enough. Successful businessmen can integrate their basic abilities into interpersonal relationships and the surrounding environment. Simply put, these capabilities must meet the needs of the market.

After careful observation, we will find that those people with strong ability and active work have some similar codes of conduct and thinking patterns. We call this successful model business adaptive behavior. Whether people can adapt to the behavior patterns and game rules of shopping malls will be influenced by their personality, willingness and values.

Therefore, for people who have just joined the work, it is most important to adapt to social and commercial operations if they want to succeed in their careers.

The ninth law of eighteen-way dependence

Once a person makes a certain choice, it is like walking on a road of no return. The power of inertia will make this choice self-reinforcing, so that you can't easily come out. Terrible sunk cost

Peter and others.

When an investment that has occurred cannot be recovered anyway, it becomes a "sunk cost".

For example, you spent 10 yuan to buy a movie ticket for tonight, and you are going to the cinema to see a movie at night. You don't want it to rain suddenly when you leave.

What should you do at this time?

If you insist on going to see this movie, you will not only have to take a taxi back and forth, but also increase the extra expenses, and you may also face the risk of being soaked in heavy rain, having a fever and catching a cold.

There is another classic example.

There is an old man who especially likes collecting all kinds of antiques. Once he finds his favorite antique, he will try his best to buy it no matter how much it costs.

One day, he found a long-cherished ancient porcelain bottle in the antique market and bought it at a high price.

He tied the baby to the back seat of his bicycle and rode home happily. Who knows that because the porcelain bottle was not fastened, it slipped from the back seat of the bicycle with a "crash" on the way and fell to pieces.

Guess, how did the old man react?

The old man didn't even look back after hearing the crisp sound. At this time, an enthusiastic person on the roadside shouted to him: "Grandpa, your porcelain bottle is broken!" " "The old man still said without looking back," Is it broken? Listening to the sound, it must have broken into pieces, irreparable! " After a while, the old man's back disappeared into the vast sea of people.

If they are ordinary people, they will definitely jump off their bicycles, stomp their chests and lament those who have turned into pieces, and some may take a long time to regain their spirits.

After every choice, we always take action, and we always invest in every action, whether it is manpower, material resources, financial resources or time. When making the next choice, we will certainly consider whether these early investments can be recovered and whether they are really valuable.

In the end, the early investment is like a universal glue, which sticks us to the original road and cannot make new choices. In addition, the greater the investment, the tighter the constraints on us. Therefore, it can be said with certainty that "sunk cost" is one of the main reasons for path dependence!

The eighth of the eighteen laws-the law of watching

With only one watch, you can know what time it is. If you have two or more watches, you can't be sure what time it is. Two watches can't tell a person more accurate time, on the contrary, it will make people who look at the watch lose confidence in the accurate time: this is the famous "watch law".

"Watch Law" gives us a very intuitive enlightenment: for an enterprise, two different management methods cannot be adopted and two different goals can be set at the same time, otherwise the enterprise will be at a loss; A person can't choose two different values at the same time, otherwise, his behavior will be in chaos; A person can't be commanded by more than two people, or he will be at a loss.

How to listen to other people's advice

Peter and others.

Usually, when we encounter problems that we can't solve, we will ask outsiders for advice. Because they stay out of it, it is easy to make an objective evaluation of things, which is one of the reasons why management consulting companies develop rapidly. But "bad" advice is risky. When seeking advice from external consultants, please also pay attention to the following two points:

First, find the only best consultant: "two watches" can't tell you more accurate time, it will only make you lose confidence in punctuality. It will make you feel at a loss, physically and mentally haggard, and you don't know which to believe. All you have to do is choose. The one you trust, try your best to calibrate it, take it as your standard and follow its guidance. Remember Nietzsche's words: "Brother, if you are lucky, you only need to have a morality, not greed."

Second, your consultant can only be as smart as you: for example, if you want to find a consultant in investment and financial management, then your consultant can only be as smart as you. If you are not smart, they can't tell you much; If you have financial knowledge, a competent consultant can give you more complicated financial advice; If you have no financial knowledge, they must make a safe and risk-free financial strategy for you according to law; If you are not a sophisticated investor, then they only recommend low-risk and low-return investments, such as diversification.

No counselor will choose to spend time teaching you, because their time is also money. Therefore, if you use the financial knowledge you have learned to manage your money, then a competent consultant will tell you the investment and strategy that only a few people will see. But first, you must make yourself knowledgeable. Always remember that your consultant can only be as smart as you.

The Seventh Law of Eighteen —— broken window theory

If someone breaks a piece of glass in a building and fails to repair it in time, others may break more glass with some hint of connivance. Who is hinting and inducing you?

Peter and others.

American political scientist Wilson and criminologist Lin Kai put forward "broken window theory" after observation.

If someone breaks a piece of glass in a building and fails to repair it in time, others may break more glass with some hint of connivance. Over time, these windows give people a sense of disorder. In this insensitive atmosphere, crime will breed and spread.

"broken window theory" is more from the perspective of criminal psychology, but no matter what field "broken window theory" is used in, from different angles, the reason is similar: the environment is strongly suggestive and induced, and the "first broken glass window" must be repaired in time.

By extension, from the perspective of the relationship between people and the environment, aren't many things happening in our lives the result of environmental suggestion and induction?

For example, in a place with clean windows and elegant environment, no one will make noise or "poof" spit out a mouthful of phlegm; On the contrary, if the environment is dirty, you can often see uncivilized behaviors such as spitting, urinating, fighting and mutual abuse.

For example, at a bus stop, if everyone queues in an orderly way, how many people will cut in line regardless of everyone's civilized behavior and disdain? On the contrary, the traffic has not stopped, impatient people are pushing each other and scrambling, and people behind them may be impatient if they want to queue up to get on the bus. Therefore, if the environment is good, uncivilized actions will also converge and re-enact Gucci belts; ; If the environment is not good, civilized action will also be affected. People are the product of the environment, similarly, people's behavior is also a part of the environment, and there is an interactive relationship between them.

In public, Louis Vuitton handbags can often create a civilized and cultured atmosphere if everyone behaves gracefully, speaks politely and abides by public morality. Don't let our personal rudeness, barbarism and vulgarity cause a "broken window effect", which will bring disorder and loss of norms to public places.

In this sense, what we have always emphasized is "start from me, start from the side", which is not just an empty slogan, it determines what kind of impact our own words and deeds have on the environment, Gucci sunglasses.
