Door clor, are you?
1 The next time you're deciding between rival options, one which is primary and the other which is condary, ask yourlf可乐姜茶 this question: What would Xiang Yu do?
2 Xiang Yu was a Chine imperial general in the third century BC who took his troops across the Zhang River on a raid into enemy territory. To his troops' astonishment, he ordered their cooking pots crushed and their sailing ships burned.
3 He explained that he was imposing on them a necessity for attaining victory over their opponents. What he said was surely motivating, but it wasn't really appreciated by many
of his loyal soldiers as they watched their vesls go up in flames. But the genius of General Xiang Yu's conviction would be validated both on the battlefield and in modern social science rearch. General Xiang Yu was a rare exception to the norm, a veteran leader who was highly respected for his many conquests and who achieved the summit of success.
4 He is featured in Dan Ariely's enlightening new publication, Predictably Irrational通天飞瀑, a fascinating investigation of emingly irrational human behavior, such as the tendency for keeping multiple options open. Most people can't marshal the will for painful choices, not even students at the Massachutts Institute of Technology (MIT), where Dr. Ariely teaches behavioral economics. In an experiment that investigated decision-making, hundreds of students couldn't bear to let their options vanish, even though it was clear they would profit from doing so.
5 The experiment revolved around a game that eliminated the excus we usually have for refusing to let go. In the real world, we can always say, "It's good to prerve our optio
ns." Want a good example? A teenager is exhausted from soccer, ballet, piano, and Chine lessons, but her parents won't stop any one of them becau they might come in handy some day!
