别太关注市场， 从目前的局势看，股市跌才是正常的。 但是跌多少是理性， 这个，我们大多数人都不懂。 那些以为自己懂的人，也不懂。 新冠还没历史记录，其对于市场的影响，还很难有过去的参考。 但可以看下每年这个时候的流感对于美国股市的影响。有人搜集了从1998到2006 的流感季的股市情况，发现的确当纽约这样的大城市沦陷的时候，股市会显得很低迷，交易量大大减少，而原因可能仅仅是因为交易员生病了。 When Wald, along with the researchers Brian McTier and Yiuman Tse, examined trading records from 1998 to 2006, they found that in weeks when the flu was more widespread, stock-market returns were lower. They also found that when there was a higher incidence of the flu in …

人们都夸早起。希望在9点上班前，拥有自己的时间。锻炼下身体，回复下邮件。 网上有很多所谓成功人士分享自己的作息，好像都是早起的影子。有人5点开始一天，也有夸张的，比如Mark Wahlberg，2:30 就开始自己的一天了。但你也要注意人家7:30 就睡觉了，你是不是还在上班或者晚自习？ 这样的内容看多了以后，就会使得要定好几个闹钟还醒不来的人群焦虑了。感觉自己所有的不顺利都是因为不能早起。 如果你也是早起困难人群（morning-challenged people），不知道有没有发现，那些偶尔早起的日子，不管是状态和还是效率都会变得更差。当然有不适应的原因，也是因为早起消耗掉了太多的willpower，导致这一天的其他时间我们会不自然的“滑水”。毕竟我们已经早起了，该犒劳一下这一天“这么优秀”的自己。 尴尬的是，如果我们因为有人早起，然后有所成绩，就把早起和成绩画上等号的话。仔细看一下周遭的“成功者故事”，我们会发现，ta们中也有很多人是晚睡的。 这个时候就麻烦了，那到底是早起还是晚睡导致了“成功”呢？ 其实关键的还是找到自己的做事节奏。 冬天了，懒一会儿床，也没什么。别太自责自己。这种心理上的压力，对你没什么好处。 如果真的烦心自己的懒床，那就花点willpower 在起床这件事情上，每天早个15分钟；看会不会好受些。 如果好受了，那就坚持，毕竟让自己舒服很重要。 如果没有好受，那就算了，毕竟，让自己舒服很重要。 来自Atlantic 的文章 The False Promise of Morning Routines 原标题：The False Promise of Morning Routines 原作者：MARINA KOREN 原刊于：Atlantic, DECEMBER 2, 2019 My mornings are the messiest part of my day.
