心理韌性/防禦力


Broken ≠ Beaten


Antifragility

[@talebAntifragileThingsThat2016]

面對未知,我們的反應分為三種:

  1. 脆弱 Fragile:遇到變動就損壞(如玻璃杯)
  2. 強韌 Robust:可以承受變動但無法從中受益(如壺鈴)
  3. 非脆弱 Antifragile:愈挫愈勇,在混亂中茁壯(如創作作品、實驗性的想法)

Amor Fati


Mental strength in a warrior’s mind. [@gogginsCantHurtMe2018]


Every challenge is a reminder that you were brought into the world to do something that requires your courage to awaken.


Forget all the reasons why it won’t work and believe the one reason why it will.


Resistance, obstacles, and roadblocks lead to growth. “A gem cannot be polished without friction, nor a man perfected without trials.”


By Albert Camus

In the midst of hate, I found there was, within me, an invincible love.

In the midst of tears, I found there was, within me, an invincible smile.

In the midst of chaos, I found there was, within me, an invincible calm.

I realized, through it all, that in the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.

And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger — something better, pushing right back.
