Listening Diary 8.1
Website.       : TED Talks      
Audio Name: Weird, or Just Different? -
Level/other information : -

Summary: What was the listening selection about?
In this video, Derek Siver said that whatever brilliant ideas you have or heard the opposite maybe true.
For example, when you are in Japan and you’re asking about the street's name. The Japanese People won't know about it because they use block's number to name the place. But, on the contrary, when Japan people ask a block's name in America, American people will not know about it, because they use a street for naming a place.

The second example is there are doctor in China who believes that their job is to keep healthy. So any month you're healthy, you pay them and when you sick, you don’t have to pay them because their job is you’re healthy not you’re sick.

Summary: What was the listening selection about?
You are not at your best when you're stressed. In fact, your brain has evolved over millennia to release cortisol in stressful situations, inhiniting rational, logical thinking but potentially helping you survive, say, being attacked by a lion. Neuroscientist Daniel Lecvitin thinks there's a way to avoid making critical mistake in stressful situations, when your thinking become clouded -- the pre-mortem. "We all are going to fail jow and then, " he says. "The idea is to this no aheadnto what those failures might be."
