What is luck? For most people, luck is to find money when going out and buy a lottery to win. Of course this is luck, but such luck is undesirable and uncontrollable. It comes as soon as you want, and you can't stop it. If you take a shower, change clothes, burn incense and fast, it will not cooperate with you to perform "Sincerity will make you feel good". In the words of
If luck is so random, its only use is to be treated as gossip and talk about it. But, with such a good thing as luck, how can you bear to just let it be distributed randomly? At least, in the eyes of scientists, luck is not a passive feeding. Some good luck can be fought for.
Why do photographers often have sunrises at 3:30 in the morning, and the stars in the sky are silent, and each picture has a sense of scarcity. It seems that the beauty of the world is different every day, and I am giving them dreams. And in your circle of friends, you can only eat and eat, and you are envious and jealous while eating. What kind of virtue can they encounter so many beautiful scenery? The answer from scientists is that this luck is their "opportunity to run out" . In "Wishing You Four Good Lucks", Wan Weigang explained: "If a person has been to many places, he will naturally go to good places. Those good things are from them "running".
On the list of the gods, whether it is Beethoven, Bach, Edison or Picasso, they are all long-distance runners in their respective fields. Their masterpieces are all "opportunities to run out".
In fact, ordinary people can also strive for and utilize this "opportunity to run out". I have been reading too much for a while and can read two or three hundred books a year. Every time I walk into a bookstore, I often have an illusion that I feel that once my eyes focus, I can focus on good books, and what I hold in my hands is the best. That year, the ranking of the annual novels released by the Chinese Novel Society was basically consistent with the rankings they voted for with experts. Maybe it was because I couldn’t put down the roll during that period and there were too many things passing by, and I really felt the confidence of “my eyes are rulers”.
Of course, ensuring quality with quantity does not mean that creation is pure physical work. Whether facing you or facing Newton , the apple will always fall if it is not picked. Newton may have been lying under the apple tree for many days, and you can also squat under the apple tree for many days. But, When the apple was smashed, why did Newton get a brain teaser, and you just get a concussion? This is the third kind of good luck that Wanwei Steel wants to introduce to us - "a prepared mind". The moment the apple fell, Newton's mind was ready, and you didn't. So Newton was enlightened as soon as he smashed it, and if you and I kept waiting, they were very likely to be smashed into fools.
For ordinary people, the chances of being smashed by Apple are equal, and it is possible that they are not an apple or a stone. But only when a prepared mind passes through that tree of wisdom can there be a chance to induce chemical reactions. Microbiology Scientist Louis Pasteur said it well: "Opportunities only favor prepared minds." When I was a child, I walked past the bayberry tree once, opened my mouth and looked up, and two bayberry fell in, sour and sweet, and then disappeared.When I read this article, I seemed to hear a sigh, as if God was whispering softly: "I gave you a chance."
However, whether it is the randomness of luck, the objectivity of luck, or the initiative of luck, ordinary people can understand it if they are willing to think. What some people really can't understand is the compound interest effect of luck . For example, as well as a singer, why are Faye Wong and Eason Chan ? They basically don’t create and can always sing the best songs, let alone the legendary queen Teresa Teng . Others have only one representative work, but they have a bunch of them. Of course, pop singers are the product of marketization, and the best resources are concentrated at the top of the pyramid, which we can understand. However, there are some things that many people find difficult to understand. For example, do you know that singer Li Guyi has sang " Unforgettable Tonight " for many years on the Spring Festival Gala?
Since the first time singing "Unforgettable Tonight" on the Spring Festival Gala in 1984, Teacher Li Guyi has sang the same song 15 times on stage. Especially since 2011, Teacher Li Guyi has become a repeater for the Spring Festival Gala for 11 consecutive years. Is a "Unforgettable Tonight" difficult? Can other singers not buy the copyright? Is the audience not accepting other people's performances? None of them. CCTV chose her, she was lucky.
The audience who cannot understand this kind of good luck can only randomly guess whether Teacher Li Guyi is someone on CCTV. But have you ever thought that the Spring Festival Gala’s need for Teacher Li Guyi has long exceeded Teacher Li Guyi’s need for the Spring Festival Gala? The mascot of CCTV Spring Festival Gala (completely praise, without any derogatory meaning), there was Zhao Zhongxiang before, and later it was mainly Zhao Benshan , and now only Li Guyi is left. This is also why, Su Xing self-deprecating is the artist who "issued invitations to the Spring Festival Gala". CCTV has always ignored him, and Teacher Li Guyi is likely to be the "final song" of CCTV Spring Festival Gala in the Year of the Black Rabbit. Teacher Li Guyi has the fourth type of good luck introduced by Wanweigang - "The Attraction of Character": Because of your special character, good luck will automatically come to you, and you don't need to post it on at all.
It’s a pity that Su Xing has not yet established a character in this regard for the Spring Festival Gala. Teacher Li Guyi does not need to take the initiative to fight for the Spring Festival Gala. In the words of Wanwei Steel, this is already a "calling of mission". In this regard, the most appropriate example at the moment is "box office emperor" Wu Jing . He is popular with whatever he plays, with a box office of more than 28 billion yuan. Is he and his team really look at him and only choose good things but not bad shows? Of course there are such factors, but what you may not believe is that after the success of "Wolf Warrior 2", the "attractiveness of character design" will make good screenwriters, good directors, good books, good teams, good schedules, good screens, good audiences, and good reviews all take the initiative to find Master Wu.
In Wanweigang's view, this kind of luck can explain why the opening ceremony of the two Beijing Olympics after 14 years, directors will anchor Zhang Yimou — "The director's opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is a good luck for Zhang Yimou, but Zhang Yimou's existence is also a good luck for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. This is an opportunity that must be you." As long as Zhang Yimou exists, they will not consider Feng Xiaogang , Chen Kaige , and Jia Zhangke. When this opportunity arises, the first thing they think of is Zhang Yimou. Maybe they never thought that Zhang Yimou would refuse, and Zhang Yimou would never think that he would give up. In the words of Mencius , this is "God will give great responsibility to man", who else can I do?
Return to the topic of Faye Wong and Eason Chan, "The Attraction of Character Design" can also explain the question we just asked. Their presence and influence in the pop music circle are so strong that many creators tailor-made for them when they create. For example, it is rumored that Hong Kong's "Sage of Ci" recognized in the entertainment industry once joked that Faye Wong was his "unknown wife", and he gave all his best words to Faye Wong., Jianya Tsai, who is also a musician, woke up one morning and suddenly wanted to write a song for Eason Chan. She kept thinking about his voice and completed the creation of " Darwin ". When she sang a demo, she felt that she had become Eason Chan. Unfortunately, Eason Chan didn't like this song.
Understand the four versions of luck. What can we get for ordinary people? In our respective industries, there are such "leading figures". He is commended, awarded, awarded, awarded, awarded, salary increase, and promotion. In short, there are good things, but there are you in bad things. He lives as the face of the industry, and you live as the foundation of the industry. When you understand the "attractiveness of character" in luck, your mentality may be more peaceful and less envious, jealous and hatred. You understand that knowledge has compound interest effect, and you have not yet experienced this kind of luck. Or, you take it lightly. Or, you accumulate.
The penultimate passage of "Wishing You Four Good Lucks" is well said, I copied it out to everyone: "Major achievements are often the result of the combined effect of the four good lucks. All of them must be a little random, a little initiative, an objectivity, and a little special . Think about what can be fought for, what must be waited for, what depends on others, and what depends on ourselves. We may have more initiative in destiny." At the end of the end, I went to search for the encyclopedia again. The encyclopedia's explanation is: "Luck is the abbreviation of the law of qi transformation in life movement." I don't know where this definition comes from, but I feel that this definition is more than the science given by fortune tellers. After reading this article, I think the rules mentioned here certainly include some parts with "small probability, strong randomness, uncalculable and uncontrollable", but also include your efforts, your waiting, and your struggle.
