About the author

Ellen Langer, Yale PhD, Harvard Professor of Psychology, artist. Among other honors, she is the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and three Distinguished Scientist Awards, the World Congress Award, the NYU Alumni Achievement Award, and the Staats award for Unifying Psychology, and has authored eleven books and over 200 research articles on the illusion of control, perceived control, successful aging, decision-making, to name a few of the topics. Each of these is examined through the lens of her theory of mindfulness. Her research has demonstrated that by actively noticing new things—the essence of mindfulness—health, well being, and competence follow. Her best selling books include Mindfulness; The Power of Mindful Learning; On Becoming an Artist: Reinventing Yourself Through Mindful Creativity; and her most recent book, Counterclockwise: Mindful Health and the Power of Possibility.

In addition to other honors, she has been a guest lecturer in Japan, Malaysia, Germany, Australia, Mexico, Switzerland, and Argentina.

The citation for the APA distinguished contributions award reads, in part, “…her pioneering work revealed the profound effects of increasing mindful behavior…and offers new hope to millions whose problems were previously seen as unalterable and inevitable. Ellen Langer has demonstrated repeatedly how our limits are of our own making.”

摘录要点：
- 担心是没有用，内耗是过度思考
- 放松做决定，没有错误的决定，没有遗憾的决定，没有后悔的决定
- 好好享受自己的决定，让做的决定变成正确
1. 不断为最坏的情况做准备，允许一切的发生
2. 认识到事件中存在不确定性和风险并不新鲜
- 把所有的选择视为成长

- 与他人比较就是无意识

1级思维： 努力工作
2级思维： 工作生活的平衡
3级思维（有觉知思考）：这是工作吗？ 这是生活吗？

- 身心合一： 好好享受每时每刻的一切，接受一切的发生，注意自己的变化
- 带着觉知去面对生活的不确定性的事故，勇于探索更多的可能性
