Ignite Creativity

我們不是要與眾不同，而是要成為本來就獨特的自己。《天才原則》教你擺脫隨波逐流的思維，找回屬於你的天賦與熱情。從原則出發，啟動創造力與獨立思考，走出自己的路。A WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLERUnlock your originality and unleash your unique talents with this simple guide from the acclaimed author of Think Like a Rocket Scientist.We say some people march to the beat of a different drummer. But implicit in this cliché is that the rest of us march to the same beat. We sleepwalk through life, find ourselves on well-worn paths that were never ours to walk, and become a silent extra in someone else’s story.Extraordinary people carve their own paths as leaders and creators. They think and act with genuine independence. They stand out from the crowd because they embody their own shape and color.We call these people geniuses—as if they’re another breed. But genius isn’t for a special few. It can be cultivated.This book will show you how. You’ll learn how to discard what no longer serves you and discover your first principles—the qualities that make up your genius. You’ll be e

★《華爾街日報》暢銷書★ 亞馬遜書店4.6星好評★ Next Big Idea Club 推薦選書天才，是最像自己的人。捨棄過度學習的束縛，拒絕複製別人的捷徑，與自己真實的天賦連結，人生真的不必將就。走到今天，你是否曾想不明白，怎麼就成為今天這個樣子了？你也非常希望明天不要重複昨天，未來可以不同，但就是繞不開慣性？大家都肯定你的價值了，但在你心底深處，怎麼覺得成了自己人生的配角？過著好像是別人的人生，不論是光鮮還是平淡，都是說不出的苦悶。本書作者歐贊‧瓦羅從一位火箭科學家轉型成為獲獎法學教授與暢銷書作家，不斷打破人生的各種框架，勇於走出自己的路。但他發現大多數人卻習慣追隨社會給予的範本，蒙蔽內心真實的聲音，將自己活成最不像自己的人生配角！而這本書就是為了幫助你從束縛中覺醒，發掘你內在的智慧和潛能，進而成為真正的自己。透過這本書中，你將學會如何打破限制性的思維模式，重新思考人生的可能性，開始追求內心真正渴望的目標，不再活在他人的期待之下。不對外尋求，活得更像自己在成長過程中，我們常常會被社會期待和既定框架而束縛。這源於我們對於「內在」的破洞，卻習慣「向外」尋找補丁。歐贊‧瓦羅引導我們思考並放下那些不屬於我們的身份和信念，清除腦中的淤塞，打破你為自己設下的限制，找出心中真正渴望的目標。大膽創造，解鎖內在智慧釐清目標後，該怎麼蛻變前進？大多數人害怕被批評，也恐懼被低估。在對外展現自我前，總是無數次自我審查，並刪除原真且獨特的想法，這也是我們難以全然發揮才能的根本原因。但其實我們需要的正是鬆懈理智、放下批判，學習如何在生活中打開多道門，而不是扭曲自己去適應現有的門。動態蛻變，不斷重新建構你是誰放下熟悉卻不再有用的事物很難，但人生本就是不停更迭，放棄也是一種有智慧的選擇。唯有懂得取捨，跳脫舒適圈，撕下不適合你的標籤，並以新的眼光看待生活，才能重建你與潛藏智慧的連結，一步步回到真實的自己。你的真實就在你心中，解鎖你的智慧，讓你找到那條屬於自己的路。

From bestselling author, life coach, and sociologist Martha Beck comes a new path to overcoming anxiety by awakening the creativity within.AN OPEN FIELD PUBLICATION FROM MARIA SHRIVERMost of us assume that the key to overcoming anxiety is to think our way out of it. And for a while, it works. Meditation and mental exercises offer us relief, but there is always something—a work deadline, a family emergency, a particularly distressing newsbreak—that disrupts our sense of peace and sends us right back inside the same anxious spiral we’ve been trying to climb out of.Is there a way to reduce our anxiety, not just in the moment, but in every moment after that?After a lifetime of struggling with anxiety, Martha Beck studied just about everything there was to know about how to calm down. What she realized is that the analytical part of our brain—so valued in Western culture—is the same structure responsible for amping up anxiety. In other words, we cannot logic our way to relief.
