学会务实性思考
在我的人生中只见过有限的几个人具有这样的思考问题的特质:总是从实际情况出发,从分析问题本身开始,抓住所要达成的目标和问题所造成的阻碍,而在思考的过程中不受到条条框框的限制,不努力寻求新的知识,而专注在使用已有的知识来解决问题。我称这样的特性为务实性思考。这些人具有这样的特性:

《经济学的思维方式》价格的作用
价格之所以能够起到资源分配的作用在于:每一个对资源的共同依赖者都会衡量资源的价格与自己的生产成本的关系。生产者会灵活调整自己的策略来应对价格和价格的变化:比如使用替代性的原材料,调整生产规模等等。成本约束和竞争关系就会导致资源分配到了最优价值的用途上去。对于没有得到资源的生产者而言是损失,但是对于社会整体而言则是获益。资源分配的方式会对对社会整体效益产生影响也是这本书带来的新视点。
《非暴力沟通》Part I 沟通中的暴力
