12 Things Truly Confident People Do Differently 美籍物理學(xué)家錢致榕來華時談起他中學(xué)時代的一段經(jīng)歷。那時很多學(xué)生作弊,不求上進。一位職責(zé)心很強的老師,就從300個學(xué)生中挑選60人組成了"榮譽班"。錢致榕也在其中。 當(dāng)時明確宣布,是正因他們有發(fā)展前途才被挑選出來的。對此,被選上的人十分高興,對前途充滿信心,踏實領(lǐng)悟,之后大多成了才。這次,錢教授遇到那位老師時,才知道這60位學(xué)生是隨意抽簽決定的。 這件事很發(fā)人深思。由于學(xué)生被告知他們是"很有發(fā)展前途"才被挑選出來的,這就使學(xué)生產(chǎn)生了強烈的自信心,因而自尊、自愛、自強而最后成才。可見,自信心是人走向成才之路的第一步。
