图书描述

“I wrote this book not sure I could follow the road to character, but I wanted at least to know what the road looks like and how other people have trodden it.”—David Brooks

With the wisdom, humor, curiosity, and sharp insights that have brought millions of readers to his New York Times column and his previous bestsellers, David Brooks has consistently illuminated our daily lives in surprising and original ways. In The Social Animal, he explored the neuroscience of human connection and how we can flourish together. Now, in The Road to Character, he focuses on the deeper values that should inform our lives. Responding to what he calls the culture of the Big Me, which emphasizes external success, Brooks challenges us, and himself, to rebalance the scales between our “résumé virtues”—achieving wealth, fame, and status—and our “eulogy virtues,” those that exist at the core of our being: kindness, bravery, honesty, or faithfulness, focusing on what kind of relationships we have formed.

Looking to some of the world’s greatest thinkers and inspiring leaders, Brooks explores how, through internal struggle and a sense of their own limitations, they have built a strong inner character. Labor activist Frances Perkins understood the need to suppress parts of herself so that she could be an instrument in a larger cause. Dwight Eisenhower organized his life not around impulsive self-expression but considered self-restraint. Dorothy Day, a devout Catholic convert and champion of the poor, learned as a young woman the vocabulary of simplicity and surrender. Civil rights pioneers A. Philip Randolph and Bayard Rustin learned reticence and the logic of self-discipline, the need to distrust oneself even while waging a noble crusade.

Blending psychology, politics, spirituality, and confessional, The Road to Character provides an opportunity for us to rethink our priorities, and strive to build rich inner lives marked by humility and moral depth.

“Joy,” David Brooks writes, “is a byproduct experienced by people who are aiming for something else. But it comes.”

It's not so important to be that good. Decisions always confront with struggling. Can my Adam II choose instead of my Adam I? Not for me right now. It would lead me to disaster since I'm so self-conflicted. Anyway, does help.

评分

Blinkist扫过。因为没有细读,不能评判作者对个体主义发展的正反面的详细论证和看法如何。从文艺复兴前严苛宗教教条(即亚当II主宰),到启蒙时代和浪漫主义时的两者平衡,再到二战后到的及时行乐和个体主义(即亚当I主宰),反映在当下的自我意识过分强烈,过分以自我为中心,完全被自我欲望主导,从小生活在过于积极正面鼓励的环境里。二战里的集权主义、二战的残忍和20世纪物质文明的飞速发展,是不是强化了二战后的反思战争、及时行乐、不再迷信权威、鼓励多样化和差异性,最终体现在个体主义的(过分)盛行?价值观带来的效应总有正反两面,当下的我们哪怕在研究这样的问题时也下意识地套用cost&benefit的思路,只问how不问why,只问值得不值得是不是你想要的而不问为什么。然而人类最大的问题是不知道要什么。

评分

The scales of our society have precariously shifted toward self-obsession and success, leaving the virtue of humility and the struggle toward character in the past. But life’s joys aren’t found in a dream job or home, they exist in the moral battle of becoming a more loving, humble person.

Still seek to be a better me in Adam I level

评分

努力提高Adam II不会让你的人生回到平衡,因为Adam I本身就不站在II的对面天平上。作者的这种粗劣设定拉低了这部作品的整体价值,但对于普通鸡汤受众来说,却这又极为迎合他们一分为二的价值观。

本文作者万维钢,选自作品《智识分子》,推荐阅读。 我最近听某个海外中文论坛上的人说[1],他14岁的儿子有个观察:周围所有种族都有人“go for greatness”,只有中国人不“go for greatness”。这句英文的意思大约相当于“追求崇高”,所以有人形象地把这个观察总结为“所见...

尼汀·诺里亚(Nitin Nohria)–哈佛商学院院长,George F. Baker管理教席教授 我想要读的是大卫·布鲁克斯(David Brooks)的《性格之道》(The Road to Character)。哈佛商学院一直以培养领袖能力和性格为目标,我非常想知道我们如何更好地培养和发展领袖性格。

提到品格,你会想到勤奋、谦虚、刻苦、宽容……等等,但今天为你总结的,是更高标准的“品格”——精英的品格。你仍然还能从今天的内容中看到关于勤奋、谦虚、刻苦、宽容等等这些词,但是咱们日课,给它们赋予了一个更高的标准、或者更深刻的内涵。我希望你能重温一次,因为品...
