史华兹论断;Schwartz law
Tuesday, May 11, 2010


史华兹论断:所有的坏事情,只有在我们认为它是不好的情况下,才会真正成为不幸事件
According to Schwartz law, an American , if you think negatively about something, things would really turn out badly.
This is a small story that i heard from radio 100.3.

Once upon a time, there is this uneducated old man who is selling hot dog buns. He doesn't read newspaper nor have any knowledge that can help him in this business. All he knows is just make hot dogs buns and sell it. One day his educated son who graduated from university told him that the economy is going down slope and he should make preparations for it. Being uneducated and ignorant , he choose to believe his son and order less hot dogs. Thinking that his sales would be falling day by day , he made lesser and lesser hot dog buns. Indeed, his business really did dropped drastically and he thought what his son said is truly accurate. However the truth is not what he thinks it is. It is because of his mentality .He did things half-hearted, causing the standard of the food dropped, he ordered less ingredients , giving consumers less choice , hence people stop buying from him.

The moral of things story is that we should always stay positive. Believe that things will always turn better and the beautiful end is always waiting for us. All we need to do is just pull through this period and follow Murphy's Law to prepare for the worse as the probability for bad things occur is always higher than good.

Perhaps , Murphy's law is formed according to Schwartz law where most people always does not take things in the bright light , hence the probability for nasty things to occur is always greater?

here are some other laws that is related to Murphy's law , which these three are considered as the 3 major discovery in the twentieth century: Murphy's law “墨菲法则”、Parkinson's Law“派金森定理”and The Peter Principle“彼得原理”
