Ideas don't sell themselves. Be selective about the words you use. If they don't advance the story, remove them. Condense, simplify, and speak as briefly as possible. **Have the courage to speak in grade-school language.**
Far from weakening your argument, these tips will elevate your ideas, making it more likely you'll be heard.

Most letters from a parent contain a parent's own lost dreams disguised as good advice. My good advice to you is to pay somebody to teach you to speak some foreign language, to meet with you two or three times a week and talk. Also: get somebody to teach you to play a musical instrument. What makes this advice especially hollow and pious is that I am not dead yet. If it were any good, I could easily take it myself.

特斯拉是我工作单位的大客户，从客户那里说过一件事：马斯克在现场开会经常会提出一些看似无法实现的要求，如果有管理人员提出反对，或者简单地说出“不可能”，就会被当场开掉；如果有谁提出方案，甚至实现目标，就会以“坐火箭”的速度升职。
这种管理风格符合马斯克信奉的第一原则：只有物理规则才是规则，其他的只是建议。
除了雷霆万钧般的管理手段，从《埃隆·马斯克传》中，我们得以窥见这位商业奇才的管理规则。当你读完这些规则，就能明白为什么特斯拉可以在极短的时间内成为世界第一的汽车公司。并且，这些规则简单易行，你可以把它们运用到自己的项目之上（我会拿可乐周报来举例）。

Where does this leave us? It’s becoming increasingly clear that the right question regarding productivity is not whether it’s good or bad, as it’s both a reflection of our humanity and a target for exploitation. The better query is how we can more fully reclaim it — to build a life that enjoys the pleasures of accomplishments while avoiding the sting of overload and burnout. - Cal Newport

What you’ve just read, by the way, could be called an “essay”, a “blog post”, a “rant”, an “article,” “a completely misguided overreaction,” or plenty of other things.
Just do not, I beg of you, call it “content”.

You see now how some people make it to midlife and implode. You think the discipline will add up to something but what if it doesn’t. And what if it adds up to the wrong thing. What if one day you have the house and the boy and the baby and the book and you realize it’s no solace in the face of your own mortality.
It’s just like you to believe that good behavior will always be rewarded. It’s just like you to believe that meaning is something that can be earned. You’re getting old enough to see the holes in your own logic. You poke fingers through. It’s kind of funny in the Kafka sense of the word. via

the second arrow problem: Anytime something bad happens, it's like we're being hit by two arrows. The first arrow is the painful thing that happened; the second is our reaction to that bad thing. In other words, problems (the first arrow) are inevitable, but suffering (the second arrow) is optional. The events will happen. The first arrows fall on everyone. But if we suffer about the suffering, we are throwing a second arrow at ourselves, and it's always a double hitter. via

地热辐射当然也是形成生命的重要条件，但我说的是开启碳基生命进化的那把关键钥匙，即太阳能。像木卫二那么远，如果真有生命，那也只可能是苟活在深海火山口的单细胞生物（细菌）。生命要想进化出复杂的形态，以及营造丰富的生态，高效的能量转化就不可或缺。
打个不恰当的比方，生命如同一台汽车，各类辐射如同汽油，能量转换就是发动机，缺少发动机，生命就是一堆毫无生气的废铁。而对于地球上的生命来说，最开始的那台让生命跑起来的发动机，就是光合作用。当然，这里讨论的生命体只限于碳基生命，硅基生命或者有意识的纯能量体不在讨论范围之内。
抛开人类的生命观，我觉得各种星球本质上也是一种“生命”，你能说木卫二是死的吗？当然不能，刮在它表面的每一次风暴，就是木卫二的一次呼吸。可能在无限宏观的环境下，所谓的生命就是无意识的超级星体，只有宇宙微观下的人类，才会冥思苦想自己到底是谁，外面到底有什么。如果人类有一天洞悉了宇宙的一切，进化成了“神”，那么它就不需要有意识了，它所有的行为都会遵循宇宙本身的意志，超脱生于死的物理法则，消散于多维时空中，成为宇宙的本身。

散步永远不会后悔，尤其是和家人一起散步。这对身体、心灵和人际关系都大有裨益。
前两天，JR 说在学校填了一个问卷调查，主题是心理健康。其中有一题，需要学生回答与父母的关系。他妈马上问他：“填的什么？”他说，填的“非常好”。我在一旁听到了，心头感觉一丝丝温暖和欣慰。不管在即将到来的青春期里，我们父子俩的关系是否还能维系在“非常好”的程度，至少目前为止，我做得还不错。
在与 JR 相处过程中，我犯了许多错，也做对了一些事情。在值得延续的事情里，我首先想到的是，时常和他散步。如果有个增进关系的行动排行榜的话，这件事也许可以排在第一位。
散步为什么这么有效？我估摸有这些原因：
