保罗·格雷厄姆:正确的那种固执·第1则

保罗·格雷厄姆《《正确的那种固执》》· The Right Kind of Stubborn · 领导 · 人性 · 成长 · 行动

Successful people tend to be persistent. New ideas often don't work at first, but they're not deterred. They keep trying and eventually find something that does. Mere obstinacy, on the other hand, is a recipe for failure. Obstinate people are so annoying. They won't listen. They beat their heads against a wall and get nowhere. But is there any real difference between these two cases? Are persistent and obstinate people actually behaving differently? Or are they doing the same thing, and we just label them later as persistent or obstinate depending on whether they turned out to be right or not? If that's the only difference then there's nothing to be learned from the distinction.

白话

成功的人往往很坚持。新想法一开始常常行不通,但他们不气馁,持续尝试,最终找到可行的办法。而固执则是失败的配方。固执的人很烦人,他们不听劝,撞了南墙也不回头。但坚持和固执真的有区别吗?还是说他们行为相同,只是我们根据结果来贴标签?如果只是结果不同,那这个区分就没啥可学的。
