死線鬥士到底在想什麼? (Ted Talk: Inside the mind of master procrastinator)


(絕劣翻譯 不喜勿插)

作為世間千千萬萬個死線鬥士之一,我絕對是「臨急抱佛腳」的死忠,閒來無事就像鬼一樣,四處飄飄蕩蕩,而能夠推動我全速前進的就只有「天要塌下來』的恐懼,例如,老闆/老母的咆哮和信用卡帳單。

作為中女,我想說「天要塌下來」的恐懼在踏入中年以後,正在以光速遞增,更在不同的範疇也冒出頭來,像突然出現的雀斑和無聲無息消失了的朋友。

根據Tim Urban的分享,從目光短淺的猴子進化成文明的人類,不只是達爾文的進化論,而是每個人必經的成長過程。這刻,我仍然是隻只追逐眼前享樂的猴子,但願明年今日,我會學懂直立式行走,捨易取難,大步向前。畢竟「遲到總好過無到」。

As a procrastinator, I couldn't agree more that the panic monster / fear motivates me most. As a middle aged woman, I can tell the fear is growing faster than ever. From monkey to a man, it's not just a theory from Darwin, but a self-evolution of every one of us. Yes, i am late. But, it's never too late.
