5月已经结束,这次的每周分享,我把上个月最后两周的内容攒到一起,也删掉了很多虽然还挺有意思,但并不完整的内容。所以留下的东西会很精练,我喜欢这种感觉。
以下是每周狗熊写的中、英文短贴里,值得再次回顾与分享的内容。这是一份我的每周零散心得与学习收获的汇总列表,只要五分钟,就可以获得我一周的收获。请于博客 blog.beartalking.com 查看更多
30 day Mind & Body challenge
As New Zealand went into Level 2, which means the little one can go back to daycare (finally!!) I'm trying to redesign my morning routine for a productive day.
Here's my new daily challenge, which I called it Mind&Body challenge as it focus on, you know, mind and body:
- Cold water shower for 1 min.
- 50 burpees.
- 15 minutes meditation.
I found these 3 things cost the minimal amount of my time for a better mind and body balance. It went on for 4 days and so far so good. Aim to keep doing it for 30 days to see how it will go.
Joe Rogan的播客卖了1亿美元
不知道国内有没有人转这条消息:Spotify出一亿美元买下Joe Rogan的播客全部内容版权。
可能很多人不知道Joe Rogan是谁,如果你还记得马斯克有次在某节目吸大麻,然后特斯拉股票暴跌,那就是在Joe的播客。他在西方知名度极高,反正我遇到的一些白人直男几乎都喜欢听他的节目。
国内主流媒体报道播客,还基本都是科普性质的程度,都还得拿当年的Serial来说事。虽然几个老哥们的节目真的做得风声水起,但总感觉还是被“前浪”们像是猫一样滴盯着。可能我想多了。
国外主流作者出书,演员、导演或其他公众人物出新作品,肯定要上一轮各种播客宣传一遍。很多播客也开始视频化或是直播访谈化,画面,声音和剪切秒杀一般地市级电视台水平。
关键还是自由。
从这些角度来看,还是差距很大。
The takeaway of my first online workshop
Last Saturday I facilitated my first online workshop, which was registered by 60+ participants. I would never believe I could do a workshop with my second language 1 year ago, but now I made it. Believing probably is the most important thing to start something. After that, all you need is just to keep the momentum.
As a designer I collect some feedback from the participants after the workshop. The NPS of the workshop is 8.3, the participants prefer to do Zoom workshop rather than other Livestreaming options, and many things great to know.
If remote work is now a viable option at most places, you can finally compete with skills alone. That's why I'm doing this, for myself to upskill, and for those who get value from it.
Question: what skills you would like to have for the competitive remote working trend?
世界进入乱纪元
最近和一些kiwi朋友交流了一下,包括设计界的朋友和一些猎头,我有一个观点:人类的合作方式现在进入了一个新的未知领域,而且影响会很长远。
在国内做媒体的年长朋友可能有印象,二十几年前在网络流行之前,纸媒和电视一统江湖,各个地方媒体在当地是数一数二的工作岗位。然后互联网来了,将内容上的地理差距一次抹除。地方媒体的娱乐版,就得和全国的娱乐版竞争。电视的话也差不多,节目一上星,也是全国竞争。混饭吃的难度突然加大,而有能力的人就可以跳到更好的地方。
疫情爆发后,远程办公成为标配,Facebook,Twitter等巨头已经可以永久远程办公,意味着其他国家的人也可以应聘这些工作(理论上)。对于公司来说不用受签证的限制,可以雇到更优秀的人,对于有能力的人来说,地理等限制被抹除,就只需要在能力方面竞争。
对于混饭吃的人,难度同样突然加大。
终身学习成为必然。远程沟通、理解和协作能力成为基本能力。
没有人知道什么是最好的策略,因为没有人经历过。
Into the unknown。
国家之间的物理联系肯定暂时不会恢复到原来的程度,但在线的协作与交流,会更为频繁。
想想也很兴奋啊。
冥想超过3000分钟后,来聊聊
累计冥想时间即将达到3000分钟了。算是50小时?大概是两年的时间,其实真不算多,比起Naval在Twitter上发起的60天60小时冥想挑战,还不够人家一次两个月的量。
其实我只是说笑笑,如果冥想是比时间长短,那就不是冥想了,那是应聘爱情动作片男主角。
我对于冥想本身没有任何要求。有很多时候甚至在冥想时睡着几分钟,比如今晚的Focus冥想,15分钟,但这就够了。
冥想有时会让人体验不到自己,这可能是最让人着迷的体验。一切会让人体验不到自己的事情,都很容易上瘾,比如毒品、迷幻剂、酒、性高潮等等。冥想可能是最无害的一种。
对于内向型人格的我来说,冥想是自我补充能量的最好方式之一。
目前连续冥想18天了,继续。
冥想导师Andy肯定是对我影响最大的十个男人中的一个。
一定有人会问是什么app,干脆先说了:Headspace。
A personal example of new normal
So many things we need to learn and redesign in post-COVID-19.
I used to love early morning meetups such as meetings from 7 AM, as I only needed to get up early, attended the meeting, then went to office before 9 to start working. Then many meetings switched to virtual, and started at the same time on Zoom, which seemed all good, right?
Actually, no.
When working from home, my kid and partner wake up around 7:30. Normally I prepare breakfast and take my daughter to daycare. As morning is the busiest time of the whole family, sitting in front of a computer to have a video chat while my partner is busy dealing with kid's breakfast and the toothbrush is definitely not a good way to improve our relationship. Also, when the meetups end at 8:30, I'll be too late to have breakfast and take my daughter to day care. It increases my stress level too.
It worked for me perfectly well before, but it seems not quite fit my family's new timetable now.
I think I'm not the only one with these types of questions. We need to design a new way to do similar things, but not do it as a default mode.
