So let me give you a personal example. The third time when I taught positive psychology, about half way through the semester, I started to feel a little bit enervated, a little bit tired.
給你們舉一個(gè)個(gè)人例子,我第三次教積極心理學(xué)時(shí),學(xué)期到了一半時(shí)我開始覺得有點(diǎn)疲倦、有點(diǎn)精疲力竭
You know, I've done it twice before. I knew what I was going to say. I've heard myself say it before. And I thought I lost a little bit of energy, a little bit ongf in teaching. And then I went back to the VIA. And I said "well that made a lot of sense. "
我之前已經(jīng)教了兩次,我知道自己會(huì)說(shuō)什么,我聽過(guò)自己以前說(shuō)過(guò)。我覺得我失去了精力、失去了教學(xué)的動(dòng)力,然后我就回到VIA,我說(shuō)“這倒確實(shí)說(shuō)得通”

Because my second strength after prudence is love of learning. And when I am teaching the same course, again, I wasn't learning that much new.
因?yàn)槲以趯徤髦笈诺诙坏氖菍?duì)學(xué)習(xí)的熱愛,而當(dāng)我反復(fù)教同一門課時(shí)我就沒怎么學(xué)新東西
So yes, I had new learnings in office hours. I always learn a lot- those who've been to my office hours know that I jot down ideas as we are speaking. But as a whole, in a class, I was doing the same thing.
確實(shí)我在工作時(shí)能學(xué)新東西,我經(jīng)常在學(xué)習(xí),那些來(lái)過(guò)我辦公室的人就知道,我們說(shuō)話時(shí)我會(huì)寫下一些想法。但總體來(lái)說(shuō),在這門課上我教的是一樣的東西。
And then I said, "OK. So I am going to engage in this exercise. " And for me, that exercise was let's take love of learning and continue it, even when I am teaching the same course. I'm incredibly busy even if I am teaching the same course. But I still put in an hour aside every day to learning something new, to reading something that I haven't read before.
然后我就說(shuō)“好吧,那我就要實(shí)踐一下這個(gè)練習(xí)”對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō),這個(gè)練習(xí)就是繼續(xù)追求對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)的熱愛,即便我是在教同樣的課,即使我教同一門課,我還是很忙,但我仍然每天抽一小時(shí)出來(lái)做點(diǎn)新鮮的事閱讀一些我沒讀過(guò)的東西
And what that did for me immediately within two days- it brought back my energy.
而兩天之后就對(duì)我起了效果——我的能量回來(lái)了。
