是思維的問題。沒有那個思維，巧婦難為無米炊——

熱氣哄哄，紅火熊熊，它沒米在裏麵，說什麽好？

張祥龍說的就是，整個思維被蔡閹割了。隻有極少數人能自己偶然、碰巧、

奮力逃脫——然後被圍剿。

子曰，不可使知之。

巧婦難為無米, but she can think of wheat flour, meat (chicken, ducks, goose, cattles,

porks, lamp,), seafood, and fruits. Why stick with rice? She didn't think about her

purpose to feed the hunger. 

Purpose-driven life: Honor God and help people (HGHP). What is the endpoint

measurement?

That notion got me the below:

Stanford $5 thinking box:

The professor assigned $5 to each student to invest within 2 hours. The winner will be

the one with the highest return. Guess how the winner was doing?

The winner:

only one student threw $5 (refused to think from the $5 angle); she thought outside

the $5 box and went out saying to talk with companies - she would serve as a consultant and signed contracts with a few companies. She secured consulting contracts with down payments. This student's approach

demonstrates resourcefulness and an ability to think creatively.

The losers: 

All the other students put $5 framework to rentals, to clean places, free service,...

conventional methods like renting and cleaning might have generated some income

within the given time frame, but their returns might have been relatively modest. 

*** 

Notes: 

a basic understanding of the situation presented: In the Stanford $5 thinking box

scenario, the professor assigned $5 to each student to invest within a limited time

frame of 2 hours. The goal was to generate the highest return on the initial investment.

In this specific case, one student approached the task in an unconventional manner

by using the $5 to network and secure consulting contracts with companies.

This student's approach was different from the others who opted for more traditional

methods such as using the $5 for renting or cleaning services.

The term "rudimentary understanding" typically refers to a basic or elementary level

of knowledge or comprehension of a subject. In this context, it appears that the

student's innovative and unconventional approach enabled them to achieve a higher

return compared to their peers who employed more conventional methods within the

given constraints. This highlights the importance of creative thinking and the potential

for significant outcomes even with limited resources.
