I have worked hard enough for my job, but why am I still not getting the promotion and compensation I deserve? I’ve learned a lot about entrepreneurship methodology, and I’m hard-working enough, but why does the company fail? These are all because you actually live in a “four-domain space” …

This world seems a little bit wrong

After reading the last lesson, do you feel that this has not started yet, why is it so complicated? There are so many issues to consider …

You worked so hard and lost everything?

And even then, there is always a “risk” in the process, such as shadows and ghosts, and I feel that I will kill you at any time …

Is it really that difficult to start a business?

Think how easy it was to read a book before: when the sky was blue and the water was green, as long as you study hard, you can get good grades. But why did I slowly discover after graduation that the world seems a little different?

“Studying hard” and “good grades” are no longer equal.

I have worked hard enough for my job, but why am I still not getting the promotion and compensation I deserve?

I’ve learned a lot about entrepreneurship methodology, and I’m hardworking enough, but why is the company going bankrupt?

Seriously studied the company’s fundamentals and technical aspects, and worked hard every day to trade, but why the stock still lost money?

Everything counts, and I still miscalculate after all. Is it really all because of bad luck?

No!

That’s because you actually live in a “mirrored world”!

What is a mirror world

Some things, as long as you deliberately practice and improve your skills, you can achieve the desired results, such as exams, running, as long as you work hard enough, you will gain something, and it has nothing to do with luck.

However, no matter how we practice our skills, the impact on the result is actually small.

For example, if you want to pull 3 7s on the slot machine, almost 100% is by luck. You change the pulling action, the strength of the pulling, the pulling angle … it’s completely useless.

So, success = skills + luck

Some things have a little more skill, some things have a little more luck.

We line everything up along the horizontal axis. The more it is on the left, the higher the skill ratio;On the right, luck is higher.

From this, we see a perfectly symmetrical mirrored world:

You worked so hard and lost everything?

I. Left World

The closer to the left, the stronger the causal relationship.

In other words, most of the methods to achieve the goals rely on technology, and there is little room for luck.

What is technology?

The so-called technology is actually “determinism” between cause and effect, that is, if you do A, can you get B? Is there a necessary relationship between them?

The law here is a bit like “Newtonian mechanics”. To accomplish a specific task or goal, there is a specific method and step. As long as you follow a clear action, the result will appear as promised.

For example, if you want to win a game of chess, almost 100% rely on technology, no luck whatsoever.

While playing football, there may be a lot of luck in it. No matter how good your skills are, you may also kick the goal to the goal; the referee on the court accepts bribes, and the penalty that is not blown is not blown; Or you have unfortunately encountered bad weather, which limits your ability to play; or your main teammate has a bad cold, suddenly has diarrhea and can’t stop playing, etc …

Therefore, the technical proportion of football may be only 70%, and the luck component is 30%, so the position of football is to the left of the world and to the right.

Second, the right world

The farther to the right, the weaker the causality.

There is a lot of uncertainty between behavior and results, which is what we often say is too much luck.

If you do A, result B may appear, result C may appear, results you do n’t know, or nothing will appear …

For example, if you buy stocks, you can never predict which stock will go up tomorrow and how much.

It is as great as Newton. He has also invested in the stock market and lost more than 20,000 pounds, which is equivalent to his salary of ten years. After the huge loss, he said, “I can calculate the trajectory of the celestial body, but I can’t calculate the madness of human nature …”

So if you are in the right world, the rules of the left world are completely useless

You ca n’t deduce how the world will develop through a fixed formula;

You can’t achieve your expected results through hard work;

Your plan will always encounter “accidents” and escape.Ca n’t escape, and in the end you can only sigh about this “bad luck” …

It’s like Newtonian mechanics. It fails when it enters the microcosm. The world here has another completely different operating principle, called quantum mechanics.

There is a very famous experiment in quantum mechanics called the “double-slit interference experiment”. This experiment was mentioned in the first lesson. Everyone should have learned it in junior high school. I will not describe the experimental process here. Now, if you don’t know, you can go to Baidu to search.

You worked so hard and lost everything?

In the double-slit interference experiment, the specific position of a single photon hitting the back screen through the gap is unpredictable. It cannot be calculated in advance by calculation or measuring instruments, but falls on a specific area of ​​the screen with a certain probability. on.

The operating principle here has become “probability”, “indeterminacy”, and “unpredictable” …

Just like you want to roll a “6” with the dice, you use the “Left World” rule to “practice” the throwing technique. The speed and angle of the throw are useless. The best The way is to throw six times …

You live in this mirrored world

Back to the question raised at the beginning, why do we feel that the path to success in school is very simple, as long as we study hard, we will have good grades, but after coming to society, our efforts and results cannot be equalized. ?

Especially for those students who have excellent academic performance in the past, they feel more uncomfortable when they come to society. Why?

That’s because most of the theories you learn in the school environment and at work are about the laws of the world on the left, telling you that hard work will be rewarded, and that you will be rewarded by hard work, Tell you that you can get B if you do A …

This is not the case in real life. You are actually living in a “mirror world” where “certain” and “uncertain” are intertwined.

Your set of survival rules on the left is partially invalidated in this mirrored world!

Also, because you do n’t know that you are living in the mirror world, and you think you are still living in the world on the left, so once something is done successfully, it is done as planned, and you will feel that It’s all because of my own hard work and thoughtfulness, and I found a particularly effective method, everything is as you expected …

It feels so much like being in school. Through hard work and hard work, I got a perfect score on the exam! Feeling like I have found an inevitable relationship, I have found thisCausal Law of Things …

But what if it fails?

You will blame yourself for being “lucky” and encountering “unpredictable” things, you will feel that this is an “accident”.

In fact, the subtext is: “This is not my problem, my method is okay, but my luck is too bad. Who would have expected such a thing to happen …”

As everyone knows, the so-called “luck” is the true operating principle of this mirrored world.

And even more terrible …

You not only live in a mirrored world, but also in a world where light and darkness are intertwined …

What is light? These are the things you know.

What is darkness? Those things you do n’t know, including things that other people know but you do n’t, and everyone does n’t know …

What’s even scarier …

The world is uneven. The dark part is much larger than the light part. That is, you do n’t know much about things, and there are more rules than you know …

More and more terrible …

Most people do n’t even realize the existence of the dark and unknown world, they do n’t know they do n’t know, they think they know, just like Baidu, but they do n’t know what to search for …

Why do many people believe in superstition? Especially in ancient times?

Because we feel we can’t control the world, no matter how hard we try, we won’t get it.

You worked so hard and lost everything?

We use the only known left-hand world rules to face a world full of unknown and uncertain, we have no other way, we can only ask God to ask questions, we can only burn incense and worship Buddha, we can only look forward to good Good luck …

What should we do?

The two worlds of “determined / uncertain” and “dark / light” are superimposed on each other, dividing the whole space into 4 parts. They are:
