The barrel effect is divided into the longboard effect and the short board effect.
The longboard effect is that the amount of water a barrel can hold depends on the longest board, and the shortboard effect depends on the shortest board.
Take a good look at it.
In fact, you will find out, what is the essence of the barrel?
It's a wooden strip. This wooden strip is enclosed in a circle, and its purpose is to hold water.
In order to hold water, this wooden strip needs to be enclosed with water.
But you have to know that both the longboard effect and the shortboard effect have resource losses.
What is resource depletion?
If it is a long board, then the upper plank will be lost; If it is a short board, then the long part will be lost.
It's inevitable.
How much is the loss calculated?
If it's a longboard effect, the upper shortboard is your loss; If it's the short board effect, then the part of the long board that exceeds the short board is your loss.
Speaking of which, many people will start to calculate their gains and losses.
No, I need to introduce two concepts.
One concept is called the bottom of the barrel, and the other is called the hoop.
Everyone knows that barrels have a bottom, and that's important.
If your plate is long, but the bottom of your bucket is small, then you won't be able to hold much water.
The best benefit is that the bottom of your barrel is in the right ratio to your plank, so you can get the most volume with the least amount of resources.
This bottom of the bucket, I call it the field of ability.
And the plank is the size of the capacity.
So, the plank is a combination of your areas of competence and the level of each specific ability.
Hoops are what hold these planks together.
As the so-called party, government, military, and civilian studies, the party can surround all these things into a whole, and the economy can also link various countries into a world market.
So the individual has hoops: what is your purpose in life.
The world also has hoops: collective goals at all levels.
So you'll find that a lot of times, it's actually more like a hoop around the planks of all the group members.
This thing is called the global division of labor.
So, I say that the plank effect is ultimately a hoop that circles your abilities around the target according to your abilities.
Neither the longboard effect nor the shortboard effect is fundamental.
For example, if I want to make a game, I need art, programming, special effects, publicity, management, and all these people have to use their unique skills to create the game, and this is the longboard effect.
For example, if I want to take an exam, the knowledge of each module together constitutes my score, and I must assign the score of each module according to the demand for maximum benefit.
Because I am alone in the exam, most of the time others can't help me with the quality of the exam, and at this time, the shortcoming effect is the majority.
Because many finale questions are not as easy to do as mid-range questions and scoring questions.
But the barrel will limit the horizon, what if we see it as a rodeo?
We take the world as the base and all mankind as the strength, and let us explore together and expand this volume together through a common goal.
Water will also leak, and it also needs to be replaced; What's the best way to hydrate? Of course, it's a shortcoming.
Because the barrel has a curvature, the longer the board, the more space it can't fill.
According to different goals, each performs its own duties and makes the most optimal choice; Striving to broaden the horizons of the individual and the collective, covering a wide range of subjects, and working hard – this is what the plank effect has taught us.
