"Apple" philosophy

 　　One day, Apple wanted to hire a senior financial officer, and the competition was fierce.

　　The vice president of the company placed an apple with festering spots, some trademarks with large nails, and a fruit knife in front of each examinee. He asked the candidates to deal with the apple in front of them within ten minutes, that is, to hand in the answers to the exam.

　　The vice president explained that Apple represents the company's image, and there are no special requirements on how to deal with it. Ten minutes later, all candidates handed in their "exam papers."

　　After reading the "examination papers", the vice president said: "The reason why there is no examination of in-depth professional knowledge is because the professional knowledge can be learned in future practice. Who is more in-depth cannot be judged at this moment. What we pay attention to is, The ability to react to complex things and how to deal with them." The

　　vice president picked up the first batch of apples. These apples looked intact, except that the festering area was covered by the affixed trademark. The vice president said that any company has shortcomings and mistakes that are inevitable, just like the spots on Apple, which are covered with trademarks, covering up the mistakes but not correcting them. A small mistake can even cause the whole ulceration. . These applicants did not regard correcting the company's mistakes as their own responsibility and were eliminated.

　　The vice president picked up the second batch of apples. The spots of these apples were cut off with a fruit knife, and the trademarks were randomly pasted everywhere. The vice president said that this approach is correct to gouge the fester. However, after such a gouging, the image has been destroyed. This kind of applicants may think that as long as they correct their mistakes, everything will be fine. Without considering that image and credibility are the life of the company's development, these applicants have also been eliminated.

　　At this time, there was only one apple left in the vice president's hand. The apple was red and round, and it was intact! There are no trademarks on it either.

　　Vice president asked: "Who is this answer?" A candidate stood up and said:?. "My" "Where did it come from,"

　　the candidate from his pocket just sent his vice president and the apple Some trademarks said: “When I just came in, I noticed a fruit stand in front of the company. When everyone was working on the rotten apples in their hands, I went out and bought a new apple. Ten minutes is enough for me. Used it. When something cannot be saved, I choose to start again." The

　　vice president immediately announced: "You have been hired!"

　　It turns out that the answer to Apple’s recruitment is: You must stop the bad past in order to start again at any time. Life can start again at any time, there is no age limit, and there is no gender distinction. As long as we have determination and confidence, our dreams can be realized even at the age of seventy.

Zeigarnik effect

　　As a freelancer, you have to fight procrastination every day. "I've made up my mind many times, but I just can't change it. Is it because I'm slow or slow?". In fact, many procrastinations are irrational. Many obstructions are imagined by myself. So distract, postpone, avoid confrontation. It's cool to procrastinate, and it's cool to procrastinate all the time, so I can't do it. Concentration is also related to physical strength. When the physical strength is exhausted, it is even more difficult to concentrate. You’ll tell yourself: I’m too tired to do this—okay, another perfect procrastination. 　　In 1927, Bruma Zeigarnik's senior research found that people are more likely to care about unfinished and interrupted work than completed work. This is the Zeigarnik effect. For example, we often don't care much about what we have got, but we will especially cherish what we have worked hard but haven't got. Therefore, the TV series will tell you

Moroccan football team: "The most familiar stranger"

 　　When I was still in college ten years ago, I led a sightseeing group of more than 30 Moroccan students. Before meeting them, my general impression of the Moroccans was that they are from North Africa but closer to the Arab world. They have religious beliefs, are used to worship, and are inextricably linked with France. 　　When I saw the real person, I realized that the North Africans in front of me were actually a group of children playing with each other and having fun in time. They were about the same age as me at the time. I have all kinds of nicknames and nicknames. During the process of taking them to Badaling, the Summer Palace and Houhai, two classmates and I, together with more than 30 Moroccan students, realized "cultural integration" and "world unity" in the small group to some extent. 　　During the World Cup in Qatar, I was surprised to find that the little-known Morocco team, which was eliminated in the group stage of the last World Cup, after miraculou

Your appearance determines whether you can be studied

 　　Everyone has a love of beauty—scientists are no exception. 　　In May 2021, a study published in "Nature Plants" (Nature Plants) found that those beautiful flowers have more chances to become the research objects chosen by researchers. In other words, appearance not only affects finding a partner, but also affects whether one can become a subject of research. 　　In fact, not only appearance, but also many factors will cause researchers to be unable to treat all research objects equally. The sense of existence of different species is really different, and the well-known species have a higher chance of being studied. Everyone has probably heard of the koala (Phascolarctos cinereus), but how many of you know the less popular but more endangered Queensland hairy-nosed wombat (Lasiorhinus krefftii)? There are more than 5,000 papers on koalas that can be searched on Google Scholar, and 616 related pictures on Wikimedia Commons; while papers on Queensland wool-nosed wombats are less
