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
11 / 33

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

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

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

process(

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
