给下一届苏世民学者的一封公开信

More importantly, at a mindset level, the biggest personal learning that I took away was just the importance of staying open-minded in learning. Many of us will come with very well-grounded and thought out views as reinforced by our many years of education and experience. Against that backdrop, it will take continuous effort to challenge ourselves to withhold judgment and instead allow ourselves to reconsider new viewpoints. This is especially given both the unique context and characteristics of China and also the wide diversity of backgrounds that our fellow scholars will bring. There might come a time when it gets easy to become cynical and to stop trying to listen and that’s when it’s good to remind ourselves to step back before re-engaging.

更重要的是在思维上，今年我最大的收获就是开放思想的重要性。我们很多学者带着丰富的学历与工作背景，难免对很多议题已经有着自己的观点。由于这个原因，在未来这一年，大家更应该挑战自己凡事不要急于做判决下结论，而应该让自己接触更多元的观点。尤其是因为中国实有其独特的一面，更何况我们学者都有非常不一样的背景，要深入探讨新看法需要开放的心态和宽广的思想。这点需要我们不停地互相提醒，凡事都是有另一方面，所以不要那么轻易放弃了解对方。

Be empowered, not entitled

有担当而不是理所应当
