寫作的終極目標是「提供價值」
今天再次分享Presentality的精闢寫作技巧分析。

★★★★★★★★★★★★
我在美國上大學跟研究所的回憶,就是只要跟學術扯的上邊的課程,就超級,超級無聊。所以當我看到 Youtube 上這門學術寫作課程的時候,我根本不想看。
但這個學術寫作影片居然有兩百萬的點擊!
我們就一起來看看,到底是為什麼。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
✍️ 1. 教授從一開頭就用 surprise opening
教授一開始的重點,就已經教我們把思考「反過來」:
Most schools teach writing to freshmen. Not us - we teach it to faculty. Because we've found that as students come into college and gain knowledge, they become WORSE writers.
Faculty members are the worst. So we target them.
他們發現,大一進來的學生其實很多寫作能力不差。反而是那些經過多年學術洗禮的教授們,寫出來的東西越來越爛。
所以他們要教的不是學生,而是教授。很多讓人記憶深刻的演講,都有這種「把思考模式倒過來」的點,從 Sir Ken Robinson 在 TED 的演講說學校是抹殺小孩創意的地方,到「被討厭的勇氣」。如果你的思考模式跟別人正好相反,這就變成非常好的演講開場。
我完全同意他的觀察。我經歷美國好幾個高等學府:兩所大學 (因為轉學)、研究所、然後在國際科學組織跟一對大牌教授共事六年,也發現:學術地位跟溝通能力,沒有特別大的正向關係。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
✍️ 2. 你要放在心上的不是規則,而是讀者
他說很多學術寫作,都只關心規則 (rules):看其他學者從以前到現在是怎麼寫的,有什麼明定的規則或是潛在的行規?
這些基礎的寫作元素當然重要! 但其實呢,進階寫作的人最需要放在心上的不是規則,而是讀者 (readers)。
除非你寫的是重複性很高的而且有跡可循的,如法律文件,不然光是遵守「規則」其實沒什麼用。他這裡用了一個厲害的溝通者的 favorite trick:介紹兩個對立的 ideas:rules vs. readers,而且兩個都是 r 開頭,形成一對。
為什麼要 focus 在讀者呢?
★★★★★★★★★★★★
✍️ 3. 學術寫作的出發點,跟讀者的出發點常常不同!
很多學術界的人寫作的方式,是用寫作來「思考」:邊寫邊想。
可是,當他們的作品到了讀者面前,讀者肯定會用「自己的思考模式」來閱讀。
所以讀者才會時常看不懂。他用圖片中的「視覺」呈現 writer 跟 reader 看 text 的不同角度。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
✍️ 4. 如果你的寫作沒有帶來價值,其他的都不重要!
他回憶有一次,一位研究生跑到他的辦公室,跟他大聲抱怨,說他寫的論文都邏輯清楚而且很有說服力,但外面的期刊都不願意刊登。
他告訴這位學生:**如果你寫的東西沒有給讀者帶來價值,**那多「清楚」或是「具說服力」,一點也不重要。
這位教授分享,為何這個點對於學術界的人來說,如此難理解:
In academic settings, people are PAID to read your stuff. But once you step outside into the world, this isn't true anymore. Readers out there will only read your stuff if they think it's valuable.
沒錯,大學是「付錢」給教授來看你的東西的!所以他們才會願意看,不然誰那麼無聊,花一整天看學生和其他教授寫的東西!?
在外面的世界,就沒有這麼好的事了:你的東西一定要提供價值。其實演講也是一樣。如果你的演講沒有帶來附加價值,就別說了。所以我們公司 Presentality 的中文才會叫做「核心觀點」:因為必須有一個有價值的核心觀點帶給聽眾。
★★★★★★★★★★★★

Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm the girl
The girl who has ev'rything?
Look at this trove
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one cavern hold?
Lookin' around here you'd think
(Sure) she's got everything
I've got gadgets and gizmos aplenty
I've got whozits and whatzits galore
(You want thingamabobs?
I got twenty)
But who cares?
No big deal
I want more
I want to be where the people are
I want to see
want to see 'em dancin'
Walkin' around on those
(Whad'ya call 'em?) oh - feet
Flippin' your fins you don't get too far
Legs are required for jumpin', dancin'
Strollin' along down a
(What's that word again?) street
Up where they walk
Up where they run
Up where they stay all day in the sun
Wanderin' free
Wish I could be
Part of that world
What would I give
If I could live
Outta these waters?
What would I pay
To spend a day
Warm on the sand?
Betcha on land
They understand
Bet they don't reprimand their daughters
Bright young women
Sick o' swimmin'
Ready to stand
And ready to know what the people know
Ask 'em my questions
And get some answers
What's a fire and why does it
(What's the word?) burn?
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love
Love to explore that shore above?
Out of the sea
Wish I could be
Part of that world

老外在台的十誡 MV(中文rap)
首先,RIP Notorious B.I.G. aka Biggie Smalls這位來自布魯克林的傳奇饒舌歌手,我為了紀念他而remix了這他寫的一首歌"10 Crack Commandments"。原曲是在講販毒的十誡,我則以更幽默的方式分享有關於在台灣當老外的經驗,教老外如何遵守台灣規矩,幫他們入境隨俗。
Biggie是在1996年被槍殺了,那次的殺人犯案子也尚未被破案,警察猜應該是幫派做的,嘻哈圈卻懷疑警察和FBI有可能是殺手,難道怎麼無法破案呢?!90年代的時候嘻哈的影響力越來越大,尤其是Biggie跟2PAC,到現在這兩位算是hiphop文化最偉大的饒舌歌手,假設他們還在,誰知道今天的社會會怎麼樣。
Biggie的風格雖然又硬派又直接,卻很幽默,文筆很風趣。像是這首歌10 Crack Commandments(販毒十誡),從歌名已經覺得有點好笑,怎麼會拿聖經的十誡拿來講販毒呢?但有些美國黑人的貧窮和困難真的是我們在台灣想不到的,但透過聽hiphop我們能更了解這些人的辛苦跟想法,連美國白人原本都不知道貧民區的生活是怎麼樣,新聞才不會報導,他們簡直沒有聲音一直到嘻哈音樂誕生了,所以請你不要因為聽到“販毒”這兩個字就有偏見,其實連這些rapper都不想做,但把這種東西寫進歌曲裡面才會讓人那麼shock,才有會有人聽他們的聲音,才有辦法脫離險境。
好啦 歷史課結束了,回到我這個作品的內容!希望大家喜歡,除了紀念Biggie之外,我是想要分享我在台灣的經驗,畢竟都住了7年多了,這首歌的內容對我來講已經算是常識,沒什麼了不起的,但我會忘記剛來台的時候什麼都不知道的時光,所以希望剛來台灣的老外可以聽聽我這個作品邊學習台灣規矩邊看老外唱流利原創的中文歌詞。希望台灣朋友也很喜歡,好像沒幾個月都會有一個老外因為闖禍就出現在新聞上然後被罵慘了,外國人因為怕破壞我們形象也會跟著罵哦,但我希望台灣人也了解大部分的老外其實很乖、很尊重台灣人、欣賞當地文化,只是天天做好事並不會上新聞,所以請不要一概全,大家一起繼續努力!

It's the 10 Laowai Commandments!
Any fan of hip-hop will recognize this classic beat from the legendary BIG. Share this with a foreigner who.needa to see it.
It seems every few months or so there's one of us appearing on the news for some dumb shit, this song isn't for that person, but the timing coincided perfectly I guess. We all make mistakes and the name and shame game can be a painful repercussion, but we are all in this together at the end of the day, unfortunately. One persons mistake is a burden on all of us.
Again, I'm not taking aim at anyone, just sharing what to me is common knowledge about life in Taiwan and commemorating a rap legend. I hope you enjoy the track, and hopefully learned something. These lyrics were all written and performed myself as well, so if I can do it, so can you! Chinese is a difficult language, but it is definitely not impossible, thus that's why it is the 10th commandment. If you're going to be here, learn that shit, boyyy!
Lastly, special thanks to the ladies who participated in this video, they were super cool and we had fun (and a very special thanks to MY lady for filming it!). I originally wanted to get more Laowai in it, but I'm trying not to take forever putting up content these days and I was too shy/tired to pull the camera out on the weekend at the parties I was at, besides these girls did great! I hope to make some more fun content with my friends in the future, feel free to holler at me if you have any ideas or want to join in!
Peace
Waldo 🐉🔥❤️

日文歌詞 / Japanese Lyrics :
迷いの森にあるほんとう 探しに行く月のひかり
羊歯を踏んで足を濡らして ひたりほとり夏の小道
よく笑って泣いて見つめあって おそるおそる恋に堕ちた
ふたり歩き出した違う方へ 呼び合う声だけもどかしく
find me in the wonderland
そろそろ手を汚して 自分の欲しいものを 追いかけてみる
みつあみをほどいて 同じ星を齧る ふたりになる
寂しがって夜になって まだ明るい夢のほとり
食べかけで残した心だって ここから始まるうたになる
世界は君のものさ、どこへ行こうか、貴方は笑う
踏み外してみようか、後ろめたさが私を誘う
find me in the wonderland
どうしたって 生まれ変わるほどの 強い意志が必要だわ
慎重ないのちだった 私だけじゃ道は見つからない
星を数え繋ぎ合わせ まだ知らない夏の星座
見つめあって泣いて朝になって ここから始まる物語
もう一人じゃないのよ、夢のようでしょ、私は歌う
寂しさはひるがえり旗の元へと二人は集う
何も思い通りにならないことが始まったから
踏み外してみようか、目隠し鬼の手の鳴る方へ
in your wonderland
あなたが迷う場所に あかりを灯すために
花束一つ抱いて りりしく笑いましょう
もう一人じゃないのよ、とても怖いね、幸せなんて
寂しさはひるがえり旗の元へと二人は集う
世界は君のものさ、手が届いてあなたがいて
踏み外してみようか、愛するひとが私を誘う
find me in the wonderland
in your wonderland
綺麗な吐息になって
あなたの歌をうたって
中文歌詞 / Chinese Lyrics :
皎潔的月光為我照亮此行、於迷幻之森捕獵真心
踩踏著草蕨、潤濕了雙足,行於令人陶醉的夏日小徑岸邊
曾互相歡笑、哭泣、注視彼此,才使得我們惶恐地墜入愛戀
卻漸漸步入相異路途,竟連呼喊之聲都令人無比焦躁
請步入仙境尋覓迷失的我吧
雙手漸漸開始沾染污穢,試著放縱自身索求慾望
解開扎起的髮辮,成為共食星斗的戀人,相濡以沫
寂寞的心、鋪張的夜色,仍遊走於璀璨的夢的畔邊
早已被啃咬殘缺的心,將自此幻化為歌謠
「你已擁有了全世界,我們要去哪呢?」你莞爾而笑
「要不試著背離正道呢?」罪惡感正如此略誘著我
請步入仙境尋覓孤單的我吧
尚須一份不論如何都欲潰爛重生的強烈意志
曾嚴謹拘束的生命,卻僅自身無法尋見方向
細數繁星、相相連繫,嘗試探尋尚不知悉的夏季星座
彼此相視而泣直至天明,兩人的故事自此展開
「我已不再孤身一人,就彷彿夢一般對吧?」我唱著
寂寥的心隨風飄揚,使彼此相遇於同面旗下
乃因不如己意才使得兩人的生命交織展開
不妨背離正道、作個矇眼鬼循向掌鳴之處
步向有你所處的仙境
僅為了在你迷失之地,綻亮一絲光芒
我將為此獻上花束,兩人一同凜然而笑吧
「我已不再孤身一人,但這份幸福仍會讓人感到恐懼吧?」
寂寥的心隨風飄揚,使彼此相遇於同面旗下
「你已擁有了全世界。」向著觸手可及的你說著
「要不試著背離正道呢?」心愛之人如此略誘著我
請步入仙境尋覓重生的我吧
在那僅有兩人的仙境
化作絢麗的吐息
唱著屬於你的歌謠
英文歌詞 / English Lyrics :
Within a forest of delusion, I search for truth
The light of the moon illuminating my hunt
I step over ferns, my feet becoming wet
The water puddling on the edge of a summer path
Having shared laughter, tears, and gazes between us
Warily, cautiously, I fell in love
Along the separate paths the two of us walked
Is vexingly, only the sound of our voices calling to each other
Find me in the wonderland
Before long, my hands grow dirty
As I chase after that which my self desirеs
My braid becoming undone
We bitе down into the same star, and become a pair
A lonesome, solitary night arrives
The shore of dreams still brightly lit
A heart is left half-eaten and tossed aside
From here forth begins a transformation into song
This world is your plaything, and wherever I go
You are there, laughing
Should I try and step off the path, the unease shall beckon to me
Find me in the wonderland
Even if I must be reborn anew
I cannot go on without a strong, unshakeable will
My life has been a cautious, prudent one
And thus, only I am unable to find a path
Counting the stars, connecting them together
Into an as-yet-unknown summer constellation
Gazing at each other, I cry, and morning comes
From here forth begins a story
I'm no longer on my own, aren't I? Isn't this like a dream? I sing
Desolation flutters in the wind, and we meet at the base of its flag
Since nothing is beginning to go as I had expected
I shall try and step off the path, to the source of the hunter's clap
In your wonderland
For the sake of kindling a light in the place you wander, lost
You held a bouquet in your arms, chivalrously, let's have a laugh
I'm no longer on my own
It is incredibly frightening, about happiness
Desolation flutters in the wind, and we meet at the base of its flag
This world belongs to you, I reach out my hand and you are there
As I step off of the path, my beloved beckons to me
Find me in the wonderland
In your wonderland
Becoming a beautiful breath
Singing a song about you

注音真的不簡單!你習慣用注音的話試試看打拼音留言 哈哈
希望可以了解我的困擾,但是不管怎麼樣應該都沒有我注音這麼爛
Zhuyin really isn't easy! If you're used to using Zhuyin then try leaving a comment in Pinyin lol
I wish you could understand my struggle, but I think no matter what it won't be as bad as my Zhuyin is.
祝你很棒的一天 Wishing you a great day :)

有些人會說:「如果朝鮮不是獨裁國家的話,為什麼不給外國旅客自由行呢?為什麼大部分電腦都沒連上境外的互聯網呢?」我希望那些人從不同的角度來思考這些問題。二戰期間的同盟國會開放自己的國家給德國、意大利和日本觀光客自由行嗎?別忘了,朝鮮戰爭只有停火,沒有停戰。
假如互聯網是在 1930 年代的德國發明的,而非 20 世紀下半葉的美國,而德國情報機構能暗中監督和控制一切連上該網路的任何設備(正如斯諾登透露美國國安局所做的那樣),同盟國會讓一般老百姓連上同個互聯網嗎?還是他們會跟朝鮮一樣建設自己的網路?
朝鮮是個小國家。雖然它從 1953 年一直呼籲正式停戰,但它從 1950 年到現在一直與大部分西方國家處於戰爭狀態。只要戰爭狀態不變,這些政策不是「反自由」的,而是任何理性的政府(無論是資本主義國家還是社會主義國家)會施行的防禦性措施。
誰是朋友?誰是敵人?
Who are our friends? Who are our enemies?
我們能否 追究這個問題而不自欺欺人
Can we look into this question without lying to ourselves?
誰的盟友?誰的利潤?
Whose allies? Whose profits?
是誰激於義憤而爭鬥和犧牲
Whose struggle and sacrifice are stirred by righteous indignation?
1.
饒舌的激進份子 被說是憤世
The radical rapper is said to be cynical.
我只想引人深思 和去偽存實
I just want to get people to think, cast aside falsities, and retain the truths,
因為從小到大有太多虛偽人士
because througout our lives, too many hypocrites
灌輸錯誤認識 使人愚昧無知
have instilled false understandings, causing us to ignorantly
地無視 顯而易見 的壓迫和暴行
disregard the clearly visible oppression and atrocities,
使人固執己見 而失去批判思考力
causing us to stubbornly cling to our own opinions and lose our ability to think critically.
一旦遇到陌生的意見 認知就失調
When we encounter unfamiliar opinions, we experience cognitive dissonance.
變本加厲地延伸原本的錯誤視角
Doubling down on our mistaken views
成為了心理防禦機制 也使我們無意識地
has become a psychological defense mechanism which causes us to unknowingly
成為壓迫自己的體制的棋子
become pawns of the system that oppresses us
即使我們自以為自己是正義的義士
although we think of ourselves as just and morally courageous people,
但其實是我們迷失於斷章取義的歷史
it is actually us who are lost in deliberately misinterpreted history.
而敵視 並歧視 被壓迫的各國人民
We vilify and discriminate against the oppressed peoples of all countries;
自以為仁義 卻把壓迫者 奉若神明
we think we are righteous, yet we deify the oppressors.
不分明侵略和防禦只要求無條件的和平
We don't differentiate between aggression and defense, we simply ask for unprincipled peace,
得到奴隸主的肯定不過不被他們尊敬
gaining the approval of slave masters but not their respect.
2.
監禁率最高的國家被當作自由象徵
The country with the highest incarceration rate is considered to be a symbol of freedom;
最常推翻民選政府的它被當作摯友良朋
we call it our friend as it leads in overthrowing democratically elected governments.
我們只有盲人摸象般稱頌或貶斥
We make praises and criticisms based on conclusions made from bad information,
偏執地不檢視騙子掩飾的現實
stubbornly refusing to investigate the truths hidden by liars.
別人飢餓 我們說是領導人無人性
When others starve, we say their leaders are devoid of humanity
卻不記得制裁的目的 是經過餓死人民
while failing to remember that the goal of sanctions is to sabotage stability
破壞穩定 以迫使 革命群眾 放棄革命
through starvation in order to extort the revolutionary masses into giving up revolution.
如果這不是恐怖主義 那麼你的定義可能有問題
If this isn't terrorism, then your definition might be flawed.
我問你 唯一動用核武器的到底是誰?
I ask you, who is the only one to have used nuclear weapons?
為何朝鮮發展核武就被認為是罪?
Why is it considered a crime when (DPR) Korea develops nukes?
誰的奴性思維被支配得顛倒是非
Whose slave mentality's been been dominated to the point where right and wrong are inverted,
使我們把自衛視為威脅 把威脅視為慈悲?
having us believe defense is threatening and threats are benevolent?
是誰不知不覺地在重複戈培爾所起草
Who unknowingly repeats lies written by Goebbels
的流言蜚語的同時說別人被洗腦
while at the same time calling others brainwashed,
並對用著堅如鐵的毅力英勇地起義
while unreasonably being hostile towards those who use their iron-firm willpower
驅逐侵略者的人民無理地壞有敵意?
to heroically drive out aggressors through rebellion?
#朝鮮 #DPRK #Korea
