When it comes to the word "bet", it puts a lot of psychological pressure on oneself. The cost to bet, neither the second generation of officials nor the second generation of rich people, so in the betting will inevitably be due to the lack of bottom line and doubled the speech.
The cost of this, everyone is used to bet. Previously.
This topic, I have always felt that once mentioned will certainly fall vulgar, of course, only for my own, as if I use the shallow words here and everyone to talk about.
The protagonist, in fact, I want to talk about the word "time".
How to understand "bet" and "time"?
It's really easy to understand that, for example, I'm taking the time to write this article, and I'm expecting something in return. Those rewards materialize in the form of messages in the background, recognition in the form of increased views, and the ability to hone my writing.
The most intangible and expensive luxury I'm going to consume to do all of these things is time, so if I get the rewards mentioned above, I've won this little gamble, and if I don't, I've lost time.
Not long ago I saw a tweet that stuck with me.
The content is slightly related to Liu Cixin's Three Bodies. It said that the one-, two-, and three-dimensional space that we can see is actually the foundation, on which the ten-dimensional space is extended through the interspersion of different dimensions. Interpolating points, lines, and surfaces from one timeline into another timeline.
I mention this because I want to say that the stakes are also cumulative, with points generating lines, lines generating faces, and faces generating bodies. It's kind of similar to the snowballing we refer to in statistics.
I don't know if this is an appropriate example, but the "time bet" is amazing if you really do the math.
Take us for example.
Playing the phone is a very normal thing, in this era of information technology and big data, a variety of sources of information dominate our eyes, unlike the 19th century just produced television, radio, you have no choice, because there is only radio and television.
And nowadays, open the phone I will always be entangled in I want to brush microblogging to intercept the hottest topics? Or open WeChat public number to browse professional articles? Or open the Phoenix app and other software to get information?
Not to mention that many people open Taobao, Jingdong and other shopping apps laborious action, because you can always see a lot of people in the space, the circle of friends sunshine their own shopping cart number of pieces, like childhood sunshine of their own certificate of honor that kind of glory, but usually with a sad expression.
I choose a variety of sources to get information, how much time I spend to get information, whether I win this bet? There's really no standard here, because you can't figure out if the information you're getting is actually useful, and it's up to you whether it is or not.
Nowadays, "fast food reading" can be a good symbol for those who lose their bets, because in addition to the pleasure of the moment, it is difficult to get more valuable things, just like the memory of a fish is only seven seconds.
To be more specific, we spend 20m to read, and if we don't get anything after 20m without a purpose, then we will say that this 20m is not worth spending.
Friends, let's think about it, we have 24h a day, out of the sleep state of 8h, in addition to eating, toilets, washing clothes, bathing, and other life must be spent time, for example, I need to spend 6h to do these, so I still have 10h left in a day, if I play the phone for an average of 20m an hour, that's 200m, nearly three and a half hours.
Of course, in real life, these three and a half hours are fragmented, and if I don't get anything useful out of them, I've lost the bet.
My friend, you should think about how long you play on your phone in an average hour. So let's see what we can do with three and a half hours.
With a 100m hour long movie, you can watch two shows; with a speed of 1m to see 2 pages of the book, you can see 400 pages of the book; with a speed of 20m to brush a Section 1, you can brush 10 times; with a speed of 3m to run a circle of 400m, you can run 60 laps, etc., but of course, you can't run all the time.
So why do I say that we all bet a lot on ourselves? The previous article are some examples, take it back to see is, we do something may not spend a long time, the bet is not big, we do not think, do not care about winning or losing, because it is short-term.
Maybe my example of three and a half hours wasn't serious enough.
Being taught by a teacher to take the long view, so we talk about the long term. This is actually a big headache as it relates to what we do after graduation.
Many wise people in the four-year period to use the skills to win the bet, so naturally after graduation can have a happy outcome for all, while the greater majority of people are in a panic over the end, in fact, we all understand that water dripping through the stone, perhaps because they have not witnessed it? So do not believe it?
Four years of college is a big bet, no one can go backward, no one can spend a lot of four years to "gamble", it seems that we have done some very meaningful things, but where to get the value of the level, we have to think carefully.
In fact, there is a point of contradiction in the center, that is, "materialism" and "materialism". This is of course different from what we learn in our political books. I understand materialism to mean following our hearts and doing what we feel is right. My understanding of materialism is to do what is appropriate to the society, to survive in the society, to be precise.
Because, not everyone has the potential to become a star, not everyone has the guts to be Ma Yun, not everyone has the insight of Wang Han, not everyone has the rich life experience of writers and screenwriters.
So we small people, ordinary people do not have a strong point of support allows us to bet too much, that is, why most people are living in the entanglement of a small part of the reason.
There are countless branches under one big category, and there is such a category of people, should be last year's fire up "the world is so big, I want to go and see" as a representative. They have the courage and guts to make moves that break the world's norms because they have the capital to do so, and I hope I can have such a future.
Why would I suddenly write an article that spends two hours betting on a period when I don't feel my writing has improved?
When I came back from class on the Fourth of July, I wondered, what am I doing right now? What things make sense? Should I need to give up some small bets for a bigger one? Some bets I'm not willing to give up?
Then it comes down to a matter of measurement and choice, like a balsam fir tree with many branches and leaves, and whether or not the bright white flower that can bloom is the result of every bet.
Sanno wrote, "If there is an afterlife, I want to be a tree."
Why not use the rest of your life to be a tree with many branches and leaves? No matter what species.
In class today, I asked my good friend a question, "Do you feel like you're spread thin right now? And don't know how to make decisions?" He asked me back, "Are you in this status quo?" I was silent.
Not long ago, a good friend whom I have always admired posted a paragraph in her public number, probably saying that anyone who is looking for her, constantly looking for her, she should also have trouble. However, to reach this state, I think she should be very good at subdividing the big bets into a lot of small bets, and I believe she will win.
As at the end of this post, I was expecting some response in return for the two hour bet, at least proving that it did the job of eliciting some **** from some people.
So, I made another bet, and I think I've won.
This is an article without too many pictures, but also one of my one-off text, a lot of places are not accurate, the gods see it can remind me in the background, humbly.
So, goodnight.
Goodnight.
