好方法的特點(diǎn)
Posted on February 20, 2012 by jerodyan
什么是好方法?
我認(rèn)為,如有兩條滿足,就可視為好方法。一是,應(yīng)用時(shí)心情比較愉快。二是,應(yīng)用后結(jié)果達(dá)到預(yù)期。
為什么?
作為人類,大腦一部分負(fù)責(zé)情緒,另一部分負(fù)責(zé)理性。情緒包括高興、快樂、悲傷、沮喪。理性包括邏輯、判斷、決策。所以一個(gè)好的方法也要照顧到這兩個(gè)方面。
譬如說,程序設(shè)計(jì)中的進(jìn)度條,就是一個(gè)好的設(shè)計(jì)。設(shè)想一下,沒有進(jìn)度的提示,用戶的情緒會(huì)出現(xiàn)茫然、焦慮。同時(shí),用戶的理性也處于混亂之中。
漢語中的詞“合情合理”,在評(píng)價(jià)好方法時(shí),是個(gè)恰當(dāng)?shù)拿枋觥?/p>
推廣來看,那么人生中的所有事,也都要從這兩個(gè)層面去努力,去設(shè)計(jì)。最后,如果能滿足人們的這兩個(gè)層面的需要,那是再好不過了。

What is a good method that deals with troubles in our life?
In my opinion, a good method must have two properties. One is that we feel comfortable during the formulation and execution of the method. The other is that we can get what we want in the end.
Why are these two properties?
As a human being, one part of our brain handles emotions such as happy, pleasure, sad, depressed. The other part of it takes care of rationality such as logic, decision, judgement. The good method should be satisfied with the two.
For example, the progress bar in the computer interface design is a good one. Perhaps, we can image that users might feel anxious and helpless if there is nothing to display on the screen. And they ask, ” what the hell is going on out during the process?”
Thus, the word “He Qing He Li”, a Chinese idiom interprets perfectly the meaning.
To the extend, endeavor in our life should aim to the two properties. In the other words, it satisfies the need of our brain.
