That means thoughts will come into your mind and you need to let them go out of your mind. Weve heard interviews often in which a guest is talking for several minutes and then the host comes back in and asks a question which seems like it comes out of nowhere, or its already been answered. That means the host probably stopped listening two minutes ago because he thought of this really clever question, and he was just bound and determined to say that. And we do the exact same thing. Were sitting there having a conversation with someone, and then we remember that time that we met Hugh Jack man in a coffee shop. 第四点：顺其自然。也就是说，想法会自然流入你的头脑，而你需要将它们表达出来。我们常听到采访中嘉宾说了几分钟，然后主持人回过来问问题，这问题好像不知道从何而来或者已经被回答过了。这说明主持人可能两分钟前就没在听，因为他想到了这个非常机智的问题，于是就心心念念想着问这个问题。我们同样也会这么干。当我们和某人坐在一起交谈时，我们突然想起那次和休?杰克曼在咖啡店的偶遇。 Number five: If you dont know, say that you dont know. Now, people on the radio, especially on NPR, are much more aware that theyre going on the record, and so theyre more careful about what they claim to be an expert in and what they claim to know for sure. Do that. Err on the side of caution. Talk should not be cheap. 第五点：如果你不知道，就说你不知道。广播节目里的人，尤其在全国公共广播电台（NPR）中，非常明白他们的谈话会被播放出去。所以他们对自己声称专业的地方以及言之凿凿的东西会更加小心。要学着这样做，谨言慎行，谈话应该是负责任的行为。 Number six: Don’t equate your experience with theirs. If theyre talking about having lost a family member, dont start talking about the time you lost a family member. If theyre talking about the trouble theyre having at work, dont tell them about how much you hate your job. Its not the same. It is never the same. All experiences are individual. And, more importantly, it is not about you. You don’t need to take that moment to prove how amazing you are or how much you’ve suffered. Somebody asked Stephen Hawking once what his IQ was, and he said, I have no idea. People who brag about their IQs are losers. 第六条：不要把自己的经历和他人比较。如果对方谈论失去了家人，不要就势开始
