读书笔记：思维导图

当你每次产生一个想法时，带有这个思想的神经通道中的生化/电磁阻力就会减少。这就像在丛林之中清出一条小路来一样。第一次得费一点劲，因为你必须清除掉一路段杂草缠藤。第二次就容易多了，因为第一次走过这里时已经做了很多清障工作。你从这里经过的次数越多，存在的阻力就越小，直到重复很多次以后，这条小路变得又宽又平，基本没有什么或者只有很少的东西要清除了。大脑里面的情形差不多：你重复思想模式或者图谱的次数越多，对它们造成的阻力就越小。因此，重复本身就增大了自我重复的可能性 ，这一点至关重要。换句话说，"心理现象"发生的次数越多，它再次发生的可能性就越大。
Every time you have a thought, the biochemical/electromagnetic resistance along the pathway carrying that thought is reduced. It is like trying to clear a path through a forest. The first time is a struggle because you have to fight your way through the undrgrowth. The second time you travel that way will be easier because of the clearing you did on your first journey. The more times you travel that path, the less resistance there will be, until, after many repetitions, you have a wide, smooth track which requires little or no clearing. Asimilar function occurs in your brain: the more you repeat patterns or maps of thought, the less resistance there is to them. Therefore, and of greater significance, repetition in itself increases the probability of repetition. In other words, the more times a 'mental event' happens, the more likely it is to happen again.
