✨ 每一本好书都值得反复阅读，每一次阅读都可能遇见新的自己。 欢迎参加2026年3月8日城市部落英文读书会，社交英语角 weekly Language exchange & bookclub meetup Topic discussion主题讨论: 《Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results》《清晰思考》将平凡时刻转化为非凡成果 春季英文读书会 Venue: People Square in Shanghai 上海人民广场 Cost: 18元/人，.RMB18/person Date & time: Mar 8th 上午 10:00-12:30 你可能听过这样一句话：选择比努力更重要。人生关键点上的重大决策，会决定我们的命运。但你有没有想过，是什么在背后支撑我们做出这些选择呢？为什么起点差不多的人，成就差异能那么大呢？ 今天要讲的这本书会告诉我们，决定这些的是思考的质量。 《Clear Thinking》这本书的作者是加拿大情报专家Shane Parrish，他认为，真正影响我们成功的，不仅仅是那些大的人生节点，更是那些我们平常甚至没有意识到的选择时刻。 In an age where information overload and rapid decision-making have become the norm, Shane Parrish’s “Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results” emerges as a beacon of clarity and practical wisdom. 学会清晰思考是改变人生或事业轨迹的关键。然而，我们不常意识到哪些时刻是进行清晰思考的机会。《清晰思考》不仅是一本关于决策的书，它是一次对思考质量的全面提升。加拿大前情报专家Shane Parrish将他的经验和智慧凝练成文，教你如何在生活的每个瞬间做出清晰、理性的决策。本书详细指导你如何克服人性的弱点、培养强者思维、并实现高质量的决策。如果理解了这本书，你将获得全方位的思维训练 Few things will change your trajectory in life or business as much as learning to think clearly. Yet few of us recognize opportunities to think in the first place. You might believe you’re thinking clearly in the moments that matter most. But in all likelihood, when the pressure is on, you won’t be thinking at all. And your subsequent actions will inevitably move you further from the results you ultimately seek—love, belonging, success, wealth, victory. According to Farnam Street founder Shane Parrish, we must get better at recognizing these opportunities for what they are, and deploying our cognitive ability in order to achieve the life we want. Clear Thinking gives you the tools to recognize the moments that have the potential to transform your trajectory, and reshape how you navigate the critical space between stimulus and response. As Parrish shows, we may imagine we are the protagonists in the story of our lives. But the sad truth is, most of us run on autopilot. Our behavioral defaults, groomed by biology, evolution, and culture, are primed to run the show for us if we don’t intervene. At our worst, we react to events without reasoning, not even realizing that we’ve missed an opportunity to think at all. At our best, we recognize these moments for what they are, and apply the full capacity of our reasoning and rationality to them. Through stories, mental models, and more, Parrish offers the missing link between behavioral science and real-life outcomes. The result is a must-have manual for optimizing decision-making, gaining competitive advantage, and living a more intentional life.

Walk, discover, and dance through time! Our curated Yuyuan Road Heritage Walk brings you face-to-face with Shanghai’s past, from hidden Jewish architecture to the former homes of its most influential figures. The adventure culminates with an elegant Afternoon Tea Dance, where you can waltz (or sip) just like they did in the 1930s. **Route Highlights** ✅ 17 points of interest spanning Republican-era villas to hidden lane houses ✅ Untold stories of educators, musicians, industrialists & political legends ✅ Architectural journey: Western-style gardens, Jewish residences & Art Deco gems ✅ 1.7km flat stroll ending with a glamorous Paramount Tea Dance experience **Some of The Historical Treasures You'll See** **1\. Former Residences of Known Figures** Walk in the footsteps of the educators, industrialists, and political figures who built modern China. Their former homes are not just buildings. They are the silent witnesses to the ideas, ambitions, and power struggles of Shanghai's golden age. Cai Yuanpei is the revolutionary President of Peking University, he championed academic freedom and synthesized Chinese and Western thought. His home symbolizes the birth of modern Chinese humanities. He conducted the introduction of Western classical music into the Chinese mainstream. His home was a note in Shanghai's symphony of cultural fusion. He turned modern psychology into a new philosophy of education, championing the idea that learning should start with understanding the child's mind. A warlord who controlled China's government from Beijing. In Shanghai, he was beyond the reach of his rivals, using this home to secure funds, forge alliances, and plan his next move in the nation's complex power game ***And many others to explore...*** **2\. Jinyuan Garden** Jinyuan Garden embodies modern China’s dramatic story. It was the mansion of a leading capitalist family before becoming the celebrated barracks of the revolutionary "Good Eighth Company," symbolizing a complete historical transformation. **3\. Lane 749\, Yu Yuan Road** **Spy's Den** Built in the 1930s for wealthy elites, its maze-like design later made it a notorious nest for secret agents and wartime collaborators. Today, every corner whispers stories of intrigue and survival from the city's most turbulent decades. **4\. Yuguang Village** Built in 1938, it was one of Shanghai's earliest and most notable "New-Type Lane Houses". It moved away from traditional, cramped lanes toward more modern living with private gardens, better ventilation, and planned greenery. It catered to the city's rising middle-class professionals. Founded in 1866, this was Shanghai's emergency room during its most explosive growth. Here, missionaries and the first Chinese doctors battled cholera outbreaks, pioneered life-saving surgeries, and wrote the first rulebook for public health in a crowded, chaotic metropolis. **5\. Jewish Architecture** The Jewish architecture on Yuyuan Road is a direct legacy of Shanghai's role as a haven for Jewish refugees fleeing the Holocaust in the late 1930s-1940s. These apartments and villas housed a vibrant, resilient community that became an integral part of the neighborhood, adding a unique layer to Shanghai's multicultural identity. **6\. The Broadway Mansion** A historic, neo-classical building, overlooking the Huangpu River. It was one of the most famous and luxurious multi-functional entertainment palaces in 1930s Shanghai, known as "the city's first building of entertainment." Opened in 1930, it was the symbol of Shanghai's golden jazz age and decadent nightlife before WWII. It catered to wealthy foreigners, socialites, and the Chinese elite. **7\. Paramount Guided Tour& Afternoon Tea Dance** The walk culminates in a guided interior tour of the legendary ballroom, where the Paramount’s staff will escort you through the Art Deco halls and recount tales from its golden era. When it opened in 1933, it was advertised as "the finest ballroom in the Far East." It instantly became the most prestigious and luxurious nightclub in Shanghai, a city already famous for its nightlife. We'll end our journey with a classic afternoon tea, snacks and even a dance here before the tour concludes. **Detailed Information:** **Time & Dates:** 13:00 - 17:00, 8 March 2026 **Trip cost: 399rmb/person** **Group size:** 10-20 people (This itinerary includes substantial historical content, making it more suitable for children aged 10 and up to understand) **Meeting Time:** 12:50pm **Meeting Point:** Starbucks at Jiangsu Road Subway Station **Address:** The walk is from Jiangsu Road to Huashan Road section **Ending Point:** Paramount, 218 Yuyuan road **Language:** Mandarin & English **Duration:** 4 hours (End the tour at around 5:00 PM) **Trip Inquiry:** Telephone/WhatsAPP:0086 15001791355 Wechat: OKDealTravel Email: contact@okdealtravelchina.com **Route Highlights:** \- The origin of the name YuYuan Road\. \- The site of Cai Yuanpei’s former residence\. \- Former Residence of Huang Yi\-jun \- Former Residence of Chen Heqin \- Jin Yuan \(Headquarters of the 8th Battalion on Nanjing Road\) \- Lane 749\, Yu Yuan Road \- Yu Guang Village \- Former Residence of Duan Qirui \- Former Residence of Zhu Xue Ren \- Former Residence of Yan Qingxiang \- Former site of Tongren Hospital\. \- Former Site of Kang Youwei’s “Youcun Lu” Residence \- Jewish Architecture on Yu Yuan Road\. \- Former Residence of Tang Yeru \- Former Residence of Yang Shu\-hsün \- The Broadway Mansion \- Changyuan **Practical Notes** • Comfort first: Wear walking shoes, sunscreens, hats and waters • Respect privacy: quiet photography only in old residential area **What's included in the price:** ✔️ Professional Mandarin tour guide and English Interpreter service ✔️ Wireless Headphones with Microphone ✔️ Afternoon tea&snacks from Paramount ✔️ Organization fee **What's not included in the price:** ✖️ Transportation cost ✖️ Tips for the guide ✖️ Your personal expense

Get ready creative writers! Inkwell is proud to announce Sunday Scribbles, our latest event for the Shanghai writing community. Sunday Scribbles is a low stress gathering for your Sunday afternoon creative writing. Join us to work, chat, and write to your heart's content. (Mostly write, though). Add Ryan (WechatID: texaswriter) to figure out where we are meeting this week and to ask any questions. I don't keep Meetup very up to date and everything Inkwell does is organized through wechat groups, so even if the number of attendees is low, there's likely an event still going on. Add Ryan, and you can join the wechat group where everything is happening. Some Frequently Asked Questions: What do we do here?: Mostly write and work quietly with some chatting What to bring?: Something to work on What we don't do?: Edit things for you, serve as writing consultants What does it cost?: Free, but please order something to support the venue. What is Inkwell?: There's a lot of information about the workshop located on the website: www.inkwell.asia. Meet Writing Workshop veterans and other Workshoppers for the latest info on writing prompts and activities. It's also the perfect chance to make the Sunday night deadline for that week's Writing Workshop. Sunday Scribbles is organized by Paula Willis who has been in Shanghai since early 2018 and a member of the writing group since fall 2019. Bring something to write with and we'll see you there!

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
