1
I think this profession is going, probably you have the great advantage that there are other professions
2
that have gone through this before you and you can see what they've done in right and wrong.
3
And you can see other industries as well, how they've screwed it up.
4
So for example, and it's because they waited for the change to happen as opposed to grabbing the bulls by the horn.
5
The bull by the horns.
6
Right.
7
It's just one S, no big deal.
8
Right.
9
And so, for example, why is it that Netflix invented Netflix and not the movie and television industry?
10
It's because the movie and television industry were protecting their old business model
11
and literally ignorant of the fact that the world was changing around them.
12
Netflix had this new subscription model and it was a small company.
13
Blockbuster, which was the 800 pound gorilla, you remember when we used to get DVDs in the mail?
14
They knew streaming was coming, it just wasn't there yet.
15
And so the CEO of Blockbuster went to the board
16
and said I think we should explore subscription
17
because this little thing called Netflix is onto something that's going to happen when the technology gets better.
18
And the board wouldn't let him change the business model to subscription because they made 12% of their revenues from late fees. And look what happened.
19
Blockbuster does not exist except for one store in northern Canada.
20
And Netflix is the dominant force in television and movies.
21
Why is it that a computer company invented iTunes and not the music industry?
22
It's because they saw the change coming and the music industry was still trying to protect selling albums in stores.
23
Cuz they saw their customer as Tower Records and HMV, whereas iTunes, Apple saw the customer as the person who actually buys and listens to the music.
24
Why is it that Amazon invented Amazon and the e-reader and publishing industry did not even invent the Kindle?
25
Like that is, it's because they're too busy protecting the old business model.
26
So I think if you go down this route of protectionism, of protecting what we have and staving off change, you are signing your own death warrant.
27
And if it's not your death warrant, your business is going to become way more difficult.
28
And another firm that may be completely outside your profession,
29
remember, iTunes, Netflix, all of these were companies completely outside their own industry.
30
In other words, they couldn't even figure out
31
which one of you it's going to be because it won't be any of you.
32
It might be a software company that That'll completely eviscerate your profession.
33
And so I think to be the one that says, okay, it won't be the way it was.
34
We can't defend the way it was.
35
And we're going to have to imagine, what if we were to invent our industry now, knowing nothing?
36
What would we do?
37
And again, this goes back to the question of why.
38
Well, why did you get into the industry in the first place?
39
Did you get into this profession because your parents told you to and you can make a good living?
40
not going to be the innovator.
41
Did you get in this industry because you love math?
42
You're not going to be the innovator.
43
Did you get into this industry and do you love this industry
44
when you really get to help people re-understand and re-imagine how to build an organization?
45
Because when you can understand the language of mathematics, when you can understand the language of a balance sheet, as clearly as you can understand the language of cultural change,
46
it's kind of like that.
47
It's the rational and the emotional.
48
And we said it before, which is the numbers are only half a picture of the health of the business. And
49
if you got into this industry to be of service to human beings who are trying to do bigger things for themselves, for their families, for society,
50
for their customers, you You might be onto something.
51
So the question is, what value do you offer to the people who buy your product?
52
Now how would you do that in this new changing day and age?
53
And literally ignore whatever was, because it's irrelevant, because it may or may not survive.
54
The industry, the profession will do fine if you're the ones willing to blow up your own business.
55
if you're going to protect your business, it'll get blown up for you.

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
