No Quit14 février 选择刚看完Duchess回来，挺感动的。电影里的次次选择也让我心里澎湃起来。选择孩子，还是选择爱情；选择自由，还是选择金钱...
看完电影，跟朋友电话聊了一会儿，不知不觉也聊了一个选择。也想问问大家，会怎么选择呢？
情境：你已计划好的家庭旅行，公司也已批准，但是临时有个客户会议要你参加，如果参加，家庭旅行就泡汤了，如果不参加，虽然项目也不会失败但是效果可能不如你参加的好。你会怎么选择呢？
10 février de Bono Hats - an interesting tool to facilitate discussionInspired by an article on Mckinsey Quarterly - The Crisis: Mobilizing boards for change
In the article, the arthor suggested one forced methodology to change the interaction of board members. That is de Bono Hats (Six Thinking Hats).
It works as follows:
I felt quite strongly for this is mainly because in our real life discussions, we always miss some of the elements of the six hats. Take typical discussion in consulting, we have a lot of neutrality (facts), lots of negative judgement (even in the idea gathering sessions), quite some positive judgement and process control. However, we are missing the elements of feeling and creative thinking. For me, I would feel awkward to say something without any clues or fact base in a meeting. I guess it would be true for others, since we have way too much negative judgement. Sometimes you just have to shut up without the facts! I have been feeling myself being abnoxious about friends' "random" but could be interesting comments - Sorry my dear friends, my bad!!!
23 novembre Practical joke前天周五，领导都不在，办公室里俨然已是一幅weekend的架势。趁我去洗手间的空档，我同事利用我不lock computer，准备从我的mail box发信给IT，然后cc office manager。内容如下：
Hello, I'm a recent transfer into the Brussels office from the Shanghai office. In the Shanghai office, we were able to access ICQ, an online chat tool. Unfortunately, since transferring to Brussels, I have been informed by team members that this chat feature is disabled. Iwas wondering if you would be able to restore access? I would like to use this tool to stay in touch with friends and colleagues from other offices. Please let me know what I need to do to get 没写完就被我撞到了，笑死我了。 19 août New Year ResolutionFirst of all, I'm not crazy. I know this is the middle of the year :)
I just glanced through my new year resolution of 2008 which I wrote in early Jan, purely by chance - I was looking for some other documents. And reading it makes me very happy, I'm moving exactly the same direction as written! And I didn't even realize that! It's amazing how much people can grow within a short period of time, I must think they are pretty challenging things for me back in Jan. Till now, you might be already too curious to know what I achieved and what are the things exactly on my list. so here you go:
i) be more organized in life, e.g., take care of my room, take care of my stuff (avoid losing stuff), make decisions in a logic process ii) be more healthy, e.g., healthy diet, more work out iii) be more life-long end product driven, i.e., prioritization iv) learn more knowledge v) learn more sports vi) make more great friends
7 juillet Biking in BrusselsBiking in Brussels on a sunny day could be so much fun. I biked (in relatively slow manner) around the city yesterday for 2-3 hours, although the orginal plan was an hour =)
It was super exciting when you are biking down hill (brussels has lots of up-hill and down-hill roads), I felt myself almost flying to the picturesque sky in front of you. I'm definitely gonna do more biking if the weather allows (... weather is always an issue here).
16 juin Oh my god!!!I'm gonna admit this. I stepped on dog shit today when i was looking for my way from the book while walking. then i went to a fancy restaurant to have dinner with friends as planned.
I just threw away the shoes... can't believe i had a normal conversation while thinking to myself, "can they smell the shit from me?"
Therefore, before my big luggage shipped here, i literally have only ONE pair of shoes (orignally brought three, i thought that was enough for the first month as a temporary move) - Ferragamo broke, adidas retired after the "dog shit event". Oh my god!!! I'm gonna get one pair or two this week. 13 avril 黄石的孩子今天一个人去看的，黄石的孩子，特别感动。讲的是抗日战争时期，一个英国的战地记者带领着一群中国的战争孤儿寻找“美丽家园”的故事。 从一开始就特别engaged，好多时候都让我回想起Cambodia的experience. 像是Hogg跟孩子们半语言半动作式的交流方式，还有Lee帮Hogg在头发上找虱子。好多电影中的人物也让我怀念Green Gecko的volunteer们，Hogg让我想起Tania (我们charity school的founder) ，Hogg后来得了病，Tania去年也曾感染了一种蚊子传染的疾病，Dengue fever, 她曾全身瘫痪似的躺在床上数个月；Lee让我想起了Cathy, 同样都是伟大的护士。尤其是Hansheng跟Lee说的那段话，意思是说Lee不像他们，她并没什么改变世界之类的大理想，她只是内心深处不忍心看着那些人死去。我觉得Cathy也是这样。 整个电影，哭了好几回，后来觉得挺惊讶，想想一年前的自己应该不会这么感动吧。我会觉得只有save the world才是noble的事业，而这才几十个孩子。真有点好高骛远。 最感动的moment，还是Hogg最后说的那句: I’m a very lucky man. 不剧透了，大家自己看吧=) 本来刚才激动地想看看imdb上大家的评论，寻找一下共鸣，没想到一帮没找对重点的哥们在那儿嚷嚷说这片是中国的propaganda, come on, I think they totally missed the point, the point of the movie is to promote the help between people regardless of nationality, something beyond practical interest, something humanitarian. Sigh… 这就是成见的power, 心怀成见就不能打开心扉，看什么都是negative的… 9 avril Back感觉又回到以前的生活了，周六一回来就去参加老同学的生日会，后来又去唱歌唱到三点。 其实也enjoy这种生活，但是担心会忘记在柬埔寨的日子，担心自己会忘记会回去的承诺，担心会忘记跟孩子们一起的美好和当时真实的感受。 |
