9/9(Sat.)The surprising habits of original thinkers (Julian)

文章 Julian »

Hi Yoyos,

It is my honour to be the host again. These days I have found two interesting Ted-talks which are somehow reflect to drawbacks of mine, procrastination and time wasting on cyber world, but the videos reveal in different perspective. I look forward to figuring out your opinions through the discussion in different approaches.

https://www.ted.com/talks/adam_grant_th ... edcomshare


Suggested Questions for Session I:
1.Do you think the "Originals" are more likely to be successful in business or their lives? Is there any friends or people you know who falls into the theory of the speakers'? Please share it with us.
2.In your opinion, how do we recognize original thinker or to become one of them? Any tips or suggestions?
3.What is the connection between procrastinators and the originals? What is the reason do you think they can related to each other?
4."Procrastinating is a vice when it comes to productivity, but it can be a virtue to creativity." what is your opinion?
5.Predicting the performance or commitment just by knowing the using web browser, does it make any sense to the topic?
6."Vuja de -when you looking something you've seen many times before, and all the sudden you see it with fresh eyes", is it possible? By what means?
7.How do you think about the idea: "In a long run our biggest regret is not our action, but our inaction.", and "Some ideas they are too important not to try"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Suggested Questions for Session II:
1.Creativity means different thing to different people. If you don't need to be creative in your job, will you still consider it is important?
2.Did you ever think about deleting social apps on your mobile phone? What is your reason or why not? Please share your idea or experience with us.
3.Do you feel less boredom when you have a smart phone by your side?
4."If you don't decide how to use the technology, the platform will decide for you." Do you think our attention are under the control or some companies?
5.According to the speaker "By doing nothing, you are being the most productive and creative self." Do you agree boredom can lead to brilliance? How come?

6."Vuja de -when you looking something you've seen many times before, and all the sudden you see it with fresh eyes", is it possible? By what means?
as to this question for things i have no idea, but for girls i like i did have the experience. there was one girl i hadn't had any feeling with her at first several contacts but then, all of a sudden, i was moved by her profile from, kind of, a long shot angle while she was talking to others during a gathering with a bunch of friends. from that angle i found that she had never been that beautiful and was suddenly attracted to her, and then, i fell haa~ :drink:

maybe the point here is to see things from different angle, without preoccupied or fixed ideas about them then, you might be able to have a whole new view about them lo~ i guess. :mrgreen:
i might be a cynic and, a sceptic as well but, i'm definitely not a bad person!!
