    球场上的镜像神经元
    球场上的镜像神经元 昨天打羽毛球,我从一个刚输给我们的对手身上学到一件事:复盘不能只盯着自己的失误,也要研究对手为什么打得好。 打完两局双打,对面打得更好的那位球友径直走到我面前,问我在羽毛球群里叫什么名字。真正让我意外的,是他接下来谈的不是输赢。 一场酣畅淋漓的混双 昨晚的这球场,我和一位公司招聘团队的之前就认识的女生搭档。 球场上,她落落大方,动作干净利索,在前场左右横移,敢扑敢压,根本不在意动作是否好看。我在后场调动和下压,她在前场抽挡、拦截。我们一边打球一边说笑,第一次搭档却配合得相当默契。 对面是两个男生。其中一位打得不错,球风犀利,落点也很聪明;另一位的球路则直来直往,更喜欢硬碰硬。 我们没有跟他们比蛮力,而是不断变换落点,把他们前后左右调动起来。有时他们被拉得前后踉跄,有时又不得不左右飞奔。等空当出来,我就在后场追身重杀,或者把球吊到网前,让他们来不及上网,只能望球兴叹。 两局下来,四个人都满头大汗。我们打得非常尽兴。对面那位相对弱一些的球友,因为拖了队友后腿,偶尔会尴尬地笑一笑。另一位却既没有不服,也没有憋屈。他下场后的反应,反而让我刮目相看。 不只复盘自己,也要观察对手 他走到我面前,先问我在羽毛球群里的名字,然后直接说出了自己的观点: 球场上要交流。既要跟队友交流,也要跟对手交流。 这也是他下场后马上来认识我的原因。 他接着说,打完球不能只反思自己哪个球没打好、下次应该怎么改,也要留意对手打出了哪些好球。为对手喝彩的同时,也是在学习对手:这个球为什么打得好?他的动作、意识和球路有什么特别?以后自己能不能模仿? 在他看来,提高不能只盯着自己。观察别人怎么打,同样是一条学习路径。 这番话让我意外。刚才在场上,我们一次次把他们调动得很被动。我原以为他下来后多少会有点懊恼,没想到他首先做的却是认识对手,主动交流,并且琢磨能从刚才的对抗中学到什么。 镜像神经元:观察也是一种练习 这让我联想起前段时间读的《智能简史》提到,即使只是观察别人完成动作,大脑也会对这个动作进行某种模拟。参与这一过程的神经元被称为“镜像神经元”(Mirror Neurons),也被认为与模仿有关。 这也让我重新理解那位球友的做法:盯住一个好球,观察对手的动作、意识和线路,在脑子里重新过一遍,再设法变成自己的东西。 想到这里这里,我又联想起自己曾经教孩子运动时常犯的错。 不能只是埋头苦练 每个孩子的运动天赋和学习节奏都不一样。看到别人一学就会,而自己的孩子练了很多遍,提高却不明显,大人很容易着急,甚至脱口而出:“为什么别人会,你还不会?”这种比较除了打击信心,并不能帮他找到问题。 我以前更容易把“多练”当作答案,觉得动作做得不够好,就再多做几遍。后来才意识到,不能只让孩子埋头苦练、独自琢磨。适当地让他看教程里的动作分解,看比赛视频中高手怎样移动、发力和处理球,再回到场上尝试,也可能带来提高。 当然,看懂不等于做到,观察也代替不了亲自练习。但练习并不只发生在自己挥拍的那一刻。认真看别人怎样完成一个动作,也是在给下一次尝试做准备。 这位球友让我看到,输掉一场球和学到一点东西并不矛盾。能从对手身上看到值得喝彩、值得模仿的地方,也许正是他越打越好的原因。  ( 1 min )

    芳姐的光荣退休欢送会
    芳姐的光荣退休欢送会 今天中午,我在芳姐的退休欢送会上,提前偷看了自己退休那天的样子。让我自己都有点不好意思的是——它并不苦,我甚至隐隐盼着它。 芳姐是单位网络组的同事,我 6 年前进公司时她就在了。这六年她一直在我身边:来得比我还早,走路低着头,风风火火,像永远赶着去处理下一个故障。可我们几乎没说过话,多是应用故障排查涉及网络时,在线上打个照面。 今天中午去茶水间倒水,恰好遇到视频组的头,拿着专业单反相机,匆匆朝会议室方向走去,会议室那头人头攒动,感觉有什么事情发生,他很激动地告诉我“今天芳姐退休”。 我当时心里一愣。大概数十天之前,我还去找芳姐修过一次连不上的 WiFi,那是我们唯一一次面对面打交道。她有条不紊地排查了几步,几下就好了,我连她做了什么都没记住。她在我身边六年,我却只在她要走的这天,才第一次认真看她。 我愣在那儿。替她高兴是真的,为一位老同事的突然离开发怵也是真的;可那点连自己都不好意思承认的兴奋,也是真的。那一刻我没想清楚这些感受从哪来,只是有股说不清的力量,把我也推向了会议室。 芳姐讲了几句,回顾自己的职业生涯,没想到她在惠普也待了不少年。之前分属不同部门,我们并不认识,竟到要分别了,才知道我们很巧地曾是同事。 她讲得很朴素,也很动情。最后几年,她感受到年轻人后浪推前浪的压力,拼命努力,不想掉队,心有不甘;可年岁又实实在在地压上来,让她不舍又无奈。组里最新来的 00 后,发现她岁数超过自己妈妈,开始叫她“阿姨”,她一开始很抵触,后来也就由它去了,连两鬓的白发也随之任之,不再染黑。 她反复地、近乎重复地讲着这团矛盾——我听着听着,忽然就被击中了。让我停不下来的,正是她那帽檐下两鬓的露出的白发,那是几十年职业生涯生动的注脚。她讲了那么多遍,我反倒觉得她并没有真和自己和解:一边为年轻人让出舞台,一边又对这里恋恋不舍。 长江后浪推前浪,每个人都会到站。这话我一直知道,今天却是第一次站在中场、看着一个人真的在我面前下车。我久久不能平静,说不清是舍不得她,还是在她身上撞见了那个终将轮到我的时刻——而我竟隐隐盼着它。仪式散了,我回工位继续干活。轮到我下车的那天,我不知道自己会像芳姐那样心有不甘,还是仍旧像今天这样,悄悄地盼着。  ( 1 min )
