core核心畫面

Picture a cook chopping an onion — fast, even, barely looking down. The first hundred onions were slow and messy; the hand learned them. A skill is that: something you can now do well because you have been through it many times, so the doing has moved from your head into your hands.

可以想成一個廚師在切洋蔥,又快又整齊,眼睛甚至不用一直盯著。前一百顆切得又慢又亂,是手自己練出來的。skill 的畫面就像這樣:你現在做得好,是因為做過很多次,這件事已經從腦袋搬到手上了。
