Portuguese Expressions (4)


فقال: «اتخذ حفر القبور صناعةً، تُريح الأحياء من جثث الأموات المكدوسة حول منازلهم ومحاكمهم، ومعابدهم.» قلتُ: «لم أرَ قَط جثث الأموات مُكردسةً حول المنازل.» فقال: «أنت تنظر بعين الوهم، فترى الناس يرتعشون أمام عاصفة الحياة؛ فتظنهم أحياء وهم أموات منذ الولادة، ولكنهم لم يجدوا من يدفنهم، فظلُّوا مُنطرحين فوق الثرى ورائحة النَّتَن تنبعث منهم.»

قلتُ وقد ذهب عني بعض الوَجَل: «وكيف أُميز بين الحي والميت، وكلاهما يرتعش أمام العاصفة؟» فقال: «إن الميت يرتعش أمام العاصفة، أما الحي فيسير معها راكضًا، ولا يقف إلا بوقوفها.»

واتَّكأَ إذ ذاك على ساعده؛ فبانت عضلاته المحبوكة كأصول سنديانة مملوءة بالعزم والحياة، ثم سألني قائلًا: «أمتزوجٌ أنت؟» قلت: «نعم، وزوجتي امرأة حسناء، وأنا كَلِفٌ بها.» فقال: «ما أكثر ذنوبك ومساوئك! إنما الزواج عبودية الإنسان لقوة الاستمرار. فإن شئت أن تتحرر طَلِّق امرأتك وعِش خاليًا.» قلت: «لي ثلاثة أولاد، كبيرهم يلعب بالأكر، وصغيرهم يلوك الكلام ولا يلفظه. فماذا أفعل بهم؟» فقال: «علمهم حفر القبور وأعطِ كل واحدٍ رَفْشًا، ثم دعهم وشأنهم.» قلت: «ليس لي طاقة على الوحدة والانفراد. فقد تعودتُ لذة العيش بين زوجتي وصغاري، فإن تركتهم تركَتْني السعادة.

Convergent Thinkers vs. Divergent Thinkers: Is One Better Than the Other?

verybody is capable of both convergent and divergent thinking, depending on the situation. However, it’s natural to lean more toward one or the other when approaching problems and projects.

“Some people have a natural preference for divergent thinking. They are the people in organizations who love to come up with new ideas,” says Manning, “They are also the people who are most useful when solving daunting, complex challenges because they are more likely to articulate ideas that are new and useful.”

The real issue lies in becoming too reliant on one method of thinking. “Too much divergent thinking can lead to endless ideation and no solutions. Too much convergent thinking can lead to no new ideas and ‘analysis paralysis,’”

Project Management and the Lure of Convergent Thinking
That’s a trap that project management professionals—who are notoriously married to their plans and processes—can fall into easily.

Let’s break this all down with some examples. Divergent thinking starts with an objective—perhaps you need to generate 1,000 new leads within a month. You start by brainstorming creative ideas and solutions to satisfy that goal: happy hours with famous speakers, direct mailers including $100 gift cards, a man in a gorilla suit on the corner of Times Square.

From there, you move into evaluating those options and settling on the one(s) that works best. This is an example of convergent thinking.

Let's continue later today on this topic and explore it further. See you soon.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【相亲】的话题。
在中国，相亲是一种很常见的找结婚对象的方式。相亲也分为很多种，亲戚介绍，朋友介绍，或者同事介绍。还有一些新的方式，例如在网上的婚恋平台找对象，甚至是参加相亲的电视节目。
有些公园还出现了一个特别的地方“相亲角”。在那里，你可以看到墙上贴着很多纸，上面写着单身男女的个人信息。年龄、身高、学历、工作、收入、对另一半的要求。去那里的基本上是这些单身男女的父母，他们非常希望自己的孩子能早一点找到对象，结婚。
很多人大学毕业以后，家里就开始安排相亲了。我在刚毕业的时候也参加过一次相亲。那个男生是我叔叔的朋友的儿子，因为我们在同一个城市工作，还是老乡，他们觉得很合适。我们加了微信开始聊天，然后一起去吃了几次饭。后面没有成功，因为他希望找一个人早一点结婚，而我还没有准备好要结婚。我觉得这是中国式相亲最大的一个特点，就是“希望早点儿结婚”。那是我第一次相亲，也是最后一次，因为我不喜欢这种要很快结婚的感觉。
我很多回老家工作的女生朋友都是通过相亲结婚的，基本上一年内就会结婚，然后生小孩。在大城市的朋友有通过相亲脱单，也有通过参加活动认识另一半的，单身的人也不少。
我觉得不管是什么形式的相亲，都是一个让我们认识人的机会。最关键的是你要想清楚自己要找什么样的人， 过什么样的生活。
你支持相亲吗？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。

In Episode 86, you learn how positive emotions can supercharge your language learning. Each feeling—happiness, calm, peace, satisfaction, pride, excitement, love, and ambition—supports different parts of language study. You discover that happiness boosts vocabulary and creativity, calm strengthens grammar accuracy, peace improves pronunciation and listening, satisfaction locks in memorization, pride fuels speaking confidence, excitement speeds vocabulary recall, love reduces anxiety for speaking, and ambition sharpens goal-based tasks. You are guided to match each emotion to the right skill and to use short rituals to spark the state before practice.
