📖 今天要学习的句子
Small Challenges Keep Motivation Alive His first routines would only last one or two minutes. By high school, his material had expanded to include a five-minute act and, a few years later, a ten-minute show. At nineteen, he was performing weekly for twenty minutes at a time. He had to read three poems during the show just to make the routine long enough, but his skills continued to progress. He spent another decade experimenting, adjusting, and practicing. He took a job as a television writer and, gradually, he was able to land his own appearances on talk shows. By the mid-1970s, he had worked his way into being a regular guest on The Tonight Show and Saturday Night Live. Finally, after nearly fifteen years of work, the young man rose to fame. He toured sixty cities in sixty-three days. Then seventy-two cities in eighty days. Then eighty-five cities in ninety days. He had 18,695 people attend one show in Ohio. Another 45,000 tickets were sold for his three-day show in New York. He catapulted to the top of his genre and became one of the most successful comedians of his time. His name is Steve Martin. Martin's story offers a fascinating perspective on what it takes to stick with habits for the long run. Comedy is not for the timid. It is hard to imagine a situation that would strike fear into the hearts of more people than performing alone on stage and failing to get a single laugh. And yet Steve Martin faced this fear every week for eighteen years. In his words, "10 years spent learning, 4 years spent refining, and 4 years as a wild success." Why is it that some people, like Martin, stick with their habits—whether practicing jokes or drawing cartoons or playing guitar—while most of us struggle to stay motivated? How do we design habits that pull us in rather than ones that fade away? Scientists have been studying this question for many years. While there is still much to learn, one of the most consistent findings is that the way to maintain motivation and achieve peak levels of desire is to work on tasks of " just manageable difficulty."
小挑战让动力永存 他的第一个动作只会持续一两分钟。到了高中，他的素材已经扩展到包括五分钟的表演，几年后，又包括了十分钟的表演。十九岁时，他每周都会表演二十分钟。他必须在演出期间读三首诗，以使例程足够长，但他的技能仍在不断进步。 他又花了十年时间进行实验、调整和练习。他找到了一份电视编剧的工作，逐渐地，他能够在脱口秀节目中露面。到 20 世纪 70 年代中期，他逐渐成为《今夜秀》和《周六夜现场》的常客。 最终，经过近十五年的工作，这个年轻人声名鹊起。 他在六十三天内游览了六十个城市。然后八十天内七十二座城市。然后九十天内八十五座城市。他在俄亥俄州举办的一场演出吸引了 18,695 人观看。他在纽约为期三天的演出又售出了 45,000 张门票。他一跃成为该类型喜剧的顶峰，成为他那个时代最成功的喜剧演员之一。 他的名字叫史蒂夫·马丁。 马丁的故事为如何长期坚持习惯提供了一个引人入胜的视角。喜剧不适合胆小的人。很难想象还有什么情况比一个人在舞台上表演却没有得到笑声更让人们心生恐惧。然而十八年来，史蒂夫·马丁每周都会面临这种恐惧。用他的话来说，“十年学，四年炼，四年成”。 为什么有些人，比如马丁，坚持自己的习惯——无论是练习笑话、画漫画还是弹吉他——而我们大多数人却很难保持动力？我们如何设计能够吸引我们而不是逐渐消失的习惯？科学家们多年来一直在研究这个问题。虽然还有很多东西需要学习，但最一致的发现之一是，保持动力和实现最高愿望水平的方法是完成“难度刚刚好”的任务。
