这节直播分享了 Practical Optimism 这本书。讲解从‘survive 到 thrive’、‘languishing 到 flourishing’开始,介绍了金缮(kintsugi)的理念:裂痕修复后会更美。然后梳理了作者提出的 7 大支柱(Purpose, Processing emotions, Problem solving, Pride, Proficiency, Present, People, Practicing healthy habits),并与之前读过的 Feel-Good Productivity Nonviolent Communication Mindset 等书做了关联。
过程中穿插了大量英文表达练习,比如 deliberate mindset, self-efficacy, home in on, name/claim/tame/reframe, social snacking 等。最后总结了作者的金句 ‘practical optimists are made, not born’ 和 ‘be flexible in your path but firm in your purpose’,并分享了用 ChatGPT 练造句、主动制造被看见机会的个人学习方法。
