28. Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and assignment below:
引文: An actor, when his cue came, was unable to move onto the stage. He said, I cant get in, the chair is in the way. And the producer said, use the difficulty. If its a drama, pick the chair up and smash it. If its a comedy fall over it. From this experience the actor concluded that in any situation in life that is negative, there is something positive you can do with it.
Adapted from Lawrence Eisenberg, Caine Scrutiny
引文: I do not feel terrible about my mistakes, though I grieve the pain they have sometimes caused others. Our lives are experiments with truth, and in an experiment negative results are lat least as important as successes. I have no idea how I would have learned the truth about myself and my calling without the mistakes I have made.
Adapted from Parker Palmer, Let Your Life Speak
引文: A colleague of the great scientist James Watson remarked that Watson was always lounging around, arguing about problems instead of doing experiments. He concluded that there is more than one way of doing good science. It was Watsons form of idleness, the scientist went on to say, that allowed him to solve the greatest of all biological problems: the discovery of the structure of DNA. It is a point worth remembering in a society overly concerned with efficiency.
Adapted from John C. Polanyi, Understanding Discovery
