反思與努力面前的關係 (第一部份)

A1) 不反思: 是被社會文化影響了風格 (影響性格)

=被鬥大、鬥多、鬥快的社會文化侵食了,.... 要多聚會、多商機、多應酬... 忙就是好! 停下來就好辛苦!「得閒死吾得閒病!」「繼續運作才有生產力! 」, 反思是浪費時間!...
=配合獨特的城市(像香港)生態: 交通方便, 電子通訊發達, 盛行 「煲水」文化

A2) 不反思: 
不想面對過去(影響性格)

=不能面對自己的過去 (成敗、得失、升跌、離合)? 埋藏了一些苦楚 、恐懼 、矛盾、不甘心!.....想忘記但不能?....還想完成的事但不能? .... 怕靜, 難獨處,... 可能是心理病!

A3) 不反思: 因為懶惰 (影響性格)

=「即食」風格, 「活在當下便是辛福! 」, 思考功夫太辛苦(是懶?)!...沒有時間反思 (但有時間吃喝玩樂)!......可能是被社會文化侵食了!

**以上其實是不明白反思的價值, 它的重要性! (詩 139:23-24)

=可否靜下來, 多想想: 生命的意義? 從前為誰辛苦為何忙? ....
=不只是「起」 R (recollection of incidents in the past), 要有「承」 E (enlightenment through reflection), 否則便停留(享受? 迷網? 自欺?) 在從前的經歷中
=反思是學習 (learning) 的重要部份, 否則便是「短路」的學習週期 (learning cycle), 重複犯錯
=最好的作家、發明家等都是好反思者 (但有些創業者、領袖不是好反思者)


-神啊!求你鑑察我,知道我的心思,試煉我,知道我的意念, 看在我裏面有甚麼惡行沒有,引導我走永生的道路。(詩 139:23-24)
