The easy way out isn't always easiest . I learned that lesson when I decided to treat Doug ,

my husband of one month , to a special meal . I glanced through my cookbook and chose a

menu which included homemade break . Knowing the bread would take time , I started on it as

soon as Doug left for work . As I was not experienced in cooking , I thought if a dozen was good ,

two dozen would be better , so I doubled everything . As Dong loved oranges , I also opened a can

of orange and poured it all into the bowl . Soon there was a sticky dough(

面团

)covered with ugly

yellowish marks . realizing I had been defeated , I put the dough in the rubbish bin outside so I

wouldn't have to face Doug laughing at my work , I went on preparing the rest of the meal , and ,

when Doug got home , we sat down to Cornish chicken with rice . He tried to enjoy the meal but

seemed disturbed . Twice he got up and went outside , saying he thought he heard a noise . The

third time he left , I went to the windows to see what he was doing . Looking out , I saw Doug

standing about three feet from the rubbish bin , holding the lid up with a stick and looking into

the container . When I came out of the house , he dropped the stick and explained that there

was something alive in out rubbish bin . Picking up the stick again , he held the lid up enough

for me to see . I felt cold . But I stepped closer and looked harder . Without doubt it was my

work . The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the fermenting yeast (

酵母

)made

the surface shake and sigh as though it were breathing . I had to admit what the 'living thing

'was and why it was there . I don't know who was more embarrassed(

尴尬

)by the whole thing

Doug or me.

Decision-thinking is not unlike it often matters not only what you think , but also what

others think you think what you think they think you think . The mental process(

过程

) is

similar . Naturally , this card game has often been of considerable interest to people who are , by

any standards , good thinkers .

The great mathematician John von Neumann was one of the founders of game theory . In

particular , he showed that all games fall into two classes there are what he called games of

'perfect information', games like chess where the players can't hide anything or play tricks they

don't win by chance , but by means of logic and skills . Then there are games of 'imperfect

information', like poker , in which it is impossible to know in advance that one course of action

is better than another.

One mistaken idea about business is that it can be treated as a game of perfect information .

Quite the reverse Business , life itself are games which we must normally play with very

imperfect information . Business decisions are often made with many unknown and

unknowable factors(

因素

), best poker players . But few business people find it comfortable to

admit that they are taking a chance , and many still prefer to believe that they are playing chess ,

not poker.
