早睡早起

›
昨天午餐和老婆聊到「現在最重要的事為何?」這個話題。我說的第一個是:協助「 意門科技 」成為一家有機、自然的公司 ( 也就是不用「農藥」及「化肥」培育的公司,此話後談 ) 。第二個則是「早睡早起」。 老婆一聽到「早睡早起」就笑了出來。因為這聽起來像是小學生的週記。不過...

熱情、能力、市場

›
這週開始時感到待做的事很多,但讀了篇 Harvard Business Review 的文章後 ,決定先撥出點時間回顧自己的現況。 那篇文章的大意是:很多時候做事所以「成功」,是因為專注於該事。但成功後,因得到新的資源及機會,導致做的事變多且雜。新的分散或不專,卻是...

關於真正的效率

›
上週對自己工作效率 做了些觀察 。不過這幾天因一本書在思考另個相關、但略為不同的問題。 作者是位和老婆、 18 個月大的女兒,一起在紐約生活的作家。平日關心環保,對 北極熊 因溫室效應導致冰層融化, 游不到浮冰而溺斃 、甚至餓得 吃起彼此的幼熊 ,會感到憂心的人。 ...

工作的效率問題

›
這週的工作像在洗三溫暖:前幾天效率相當好,很短的時間就有具體進展,也讓專案順利進行。後幾天則卡在一個項目許久,數天都沒進展。進度的遲緩,讓我甚至會想避開做事。 這種感覺對從事創作工作的人應該不會陌生,不論是寫作、寫程式、或設計。有時工作效率有如神助,有時卻又感到怎...

Less is More

›
17 歲那年剛從美國回台灣,就遇到生命中第一個較大的挫折:下飛機兩週後去考聯考,結果 7 科總分才 150 ,連繳志願卡的最低門檻 180 分都沒有。對從小就被父母灌輸,讀到研究所畢業才是正途的我來說,第一次發現生命的軌跡,似乎不如原先預期。 當時面臨的一個問題是:是...

價值與價格

›
昨天老婆生日,一起推著嬰兒車到我家旁,新開的義式小館晚餐。 這家餐廳剛開,還在「試營運」。先前問過可否做素食 ( 因老婆和我都是 茹素者 ) ,前幾天朋友吃過也推薦。基於好奇,也基於想給開店的年青人一些鼓勵,老婆和我都想去嘗看看。 其實這一區已有些餐廳,...

聽說讀寫、加減乘除

›
女兒最近剛滿兩個月,和老婆決定先自己帶看看,暫不請褓姆。這在我和老婆都有全職工作,又無父母協助下,最近還蠻忙碌的。 不過有個感覺是:自己生的小孩,總要自己「負責」 :) 在台灣很習慣 out-sourcing ,例如吃飯可以 out-source ( 外食 ) ,...

創業及資本主義的「秘密」

›
最近在閱讀 PayPal 創辦人 Peter Thiel 今年 (2012) 開始在 Stanford 開設的 CS183: Startup 隨堂筆記,收獲頗豐。先前對 Peter 認識不多,不過讀過這些筆記後,對這位前輩深感尊敬,也覺得他除了創業有成,亦是位思考深刻的...

市府補助申請感想

›
前兩天去了台北市政府對我們申請的「 產業發展獎勵補助計劃 」做報告,頗有感觸。雖說是十分感謝委員最後的支持,及承辦單位極力想協助我們的心,但還是感到許多挫折。 這個補助基本上就是:針對在台北市設立的公司,可提出 proposal 來申請研發相關的補助。政府最多可出到一...
