塞缪尔·斯迈尔斯《自助论》· Self-Help · 领导
Cellini was remarkable for his readiness and dexterity in handicraft. One day a surgeon entered the shop of Raffaello del Moro, the goldsmith, to perform an operation on his daughter’s hand. On looking at the surgeon’s instruments, Cellini, who was present, found them rude and clumsy, as they usually were in those days, and he asked the surgeon to proceed no further with the operation for a quarter of an hour. He then ran to his shop, and taking a piece of the finest steel, wrought out of it a beautifully finished knife, with which the operation was successfully performed.

白话
切利尼动手能力极强,遇到不顺手的工具会立刻自己改进。当时一位外科医生要给金匠拉法埃洛的女儿做手部手术,切利尼看到医生的器械粗糙笨重,就请医生等一刻钟,自己跑回作坊,用最好的钢打出一把精致锋利的手术刀,手术因此顺利完成。这故事说明:真正的能手不抱怨条件差,而是马上动手把工具做到合用;遇到问题先想“我能改什么”,往往比等别人解决更有效。

今日一问
你手头有没有一件因为工具不顺手而拖延的事?今天能不能先花一刻钟改进工具?
