本文链接 书摘:Strangers to Ourselves


囫囵吞枣地,看完了Strangers to Ourselves。之前没有太多的积累(对心理学的了解基本来自于大学时学过的教育心理学),细节肯定照顾不到,不过也因为对什么都新鲜,也留了个大致的印象。

书中实用性的技巧讲解不多,更多的是通过试验和现象的分析,讲解潜意识的特性、表现、与意识的关系和作用规律。读过此书,能稍微了解,日常生活中,什么时候潜意识在发生作用,什么时候意识在发生作用,二者之间大致是怎样的关系。实用点的知识,大概就是怎样调整自己的情绪,怎样判断自己的感觉是否准确,是否受了其它不相干因素的影响(当然了,这样的判断也只能做个大致的参考,况且还有许多约束条件)。

最后一段很有点意思,摘抄在这里(实际上这段话让我想起另一本书,《影响力》):

If we are unhappy with our self-views, there are things we can do to change both our story and our adaptive unconscious. It is not easy, and not many of us have the talent and fortitude of novelists such as Marcia Muller and Sue Grafton, who forged themselves into the image of heroines they created in novels. Little steps can lead to big changes, however, and all of us have the ability to act more like the person we want to be.
