Essay by Eileen Gu
FOR THE LAST 10 OF MY 18 YEARS, I've pursue a tumultuous love affair with fear I'm a professional freeskier, and twin-tipped skis,22-foot halfpipes and double-cork rotations are my main sources of adrenaline, the truly addictive core of extreme sports.
Like all bewitching lovers (at least the ones in the novels I read, for lack of real world experience) this significant other can be ... mercurial. “Fear" is really an umbrella term for three distinct sensations: excitement, uncertainty, and pressure. I've learned that the nuanced indicators of each of these feelings can be instrumental to success when recognized and positively leveraged, and harbingers of injury when ignored.
Though it's easy to label extreme sport athletes as fearless or capricious, the countless hours I've spent visualizing tricks and practicing them in foam pits (foam. particles. everywhere) and on airbags (think giant Slip’N Slide) suggest otherwise. It's biologically counterintuitive for us to place ourselves in positions of risk, and while we make every effort to physically prepare, no amount of metaphorically safety-netted practice can equate to the unforgiving snow slope that rushes up to meet us after a steep kicker launches us into the air. Instead of ignoring fear, we build unique relationships with it by developing a profound sense of self-awareness and making deliberate risk assessments. 
The work begins with visualization Before I attempt a new trick, I feel a tightening high in my chest, between the base of my throat and the top of my diaphragm. I take a deep breath and close my eyes. As I ascend the gargantuan take off ramp, I imagine extending my legs to maximize lift. Then I picture twisting my upper body in the opposite direction) intend to spin, generating torque before) allow it to snap back the other way. 
Now, in my mind, I'm airborne. I see the backside of the takeoff immediately, then my flip draws my vision to the cloudless sky above me. My ears register the wind as a kind of song, every 360-degree rotation providing the beat to the music of my motion. As my feet come under me halfway through, I spot the landing for the briefest of moments before I pull my body into the second flip. I imagine my legs swinging under me as I return to a forward-facing position and meet the ground with my weight in the front of my boots.             1440 degrees. I smile. Then I open my eyes.
In the split second following my visualization, the knot in my chest flutters and spreads - those famous butterflies reaching their final stage of metamorphosis. Excitement, the child of adrenaline. mv true love and addiction That tantalizingly precarious balance between confidence in my ability to execute the trick safely and excitement for the unpredictable experience to come I've heard this state called "the zone, which is indeed where I was when I became the first female skier in history to land the double cork 1440 last fall.
It doesn't take much, unfortunately, for uncertainty to override confidence Imperfect preparation moistens my palms, pushes that tight spot down into my stomach and makes each breath shallower than the last. The feeling isn't panic, but something like dread. Danger cries every evolutionary instinct. If I should choose to look past this safety mechanism, my body may act autonomously in the air, twisting out of the rotation and forcing me to brace for impact out of fear that full commitment to the trick may end in disaster. Every freeskier's goal is to recognize the minute differences between excitement and uncertainty in order to maximize performance while minimizing the risk of injury.
Finally, there's pressure, an energy source that can be wielded in many ways. One's experience of pressure - by far the most subjective facet of “fear”- is affected by personal experiences and perspectives. Expectations of family and friends, a competitive streak, or even sponsorship opportunities can provide the scaffolding for a high-pressure environment. Pressure can be a positive force for competitors who leverage it to rise to the occasion, but it can also single-handedly dictate competitive failure.
But whether athletes alleviate or compound their innate desire to “prove themselves" depends largely on confidence. As I enter my early adulthood I'm proud of the work I've done to cope with pressure by bolstering my self-esteem and minimizing my need for external validation. I focus on gratitude, perspective, and on the joy this sport brings me, regardless of whether I'm alone or in front of a worldwide TV audience. Though my views of myself and the world are constantly evolving, one thing is for certain: no matter how much time passes. I'll always be a hopeless romantic when it comes to fear.

想知道中国少林寺的和杂技团的有机会练滑雪能不能得冠军呢?说到底还是小众项目大众玩不起,看体操,跳水,乒乓球冠军的二代都学网球,高尔夫,花滑就知道,这些项目能入门就刷掉一批人了。 咱也不是酸,你说人家目标就是混上层的咱有啥好嫉妒的呢,你会嫉妒Kim Kardashian 家族吗?人家谷妹妹已经进入那个圈了,你们说啥人也听不到。 还有这份申请书说实话没啥经验好借鉴,发这也没啥意义

谁说谷爱凌的自由式滑雪下届奥运要被取消的呀?
这是我搜到的:
2026年米兰科尔蒂纳冬奥会将会设立116个奖牌项目,其中2个项目目前仍处于“暂时入围”状态。相较于**2022年北京冬奥会**,2026年冬奥会加入了8个新项目,另外有1个项目被移除。 滑雪登山运动在2020年洛桑冬青奥会上取得成功后将在2026年冬奥会上完成冬奥首秀。届时将展开三个奖牌项目的争夺:男子竞速、女子竞速以及混合接力。 钢架雪车将会增加一个混合团体项目,雪橇方面将设立单独的男子双人雪橇和女子双人雪橇项目,取代了此前的开放性别双人雪橇项目。 自由式滑雪运动中将会加入男子、女子双人雪上技巧项目,跳台滑雪运动方面将会加入女子大跳台项目。 高山滑雪混合团体平行回转项目被移除,其原因是男子选手和女子选手将在不同赛点进行比赛。男子、女子高山滑雪全能项目目前的状态是暂定。
被取消的是:高山滑雪混合团体平行回转项目,谷爱凌的自由式滑雪还增加了项目。

为亚裔发声更难,因为人种导致的歧视隔离更深刻,任何人种之间的鸿沟都非常大,没法共情。女性受系统性压迫,但是每个人最亲近的人都大概率是女性,同理心容易建立。这世界就算有天男女平等了,人种之间的戕害也不会停止。

谷爱凌申请斯坦福大学的ESSAY,大家评评?

Essay by Eileen Gu
FOR THE LAST 10 OF MY 18 YEARS, I've pursue a tumultuous love affair with fear I'm a professional freeskier, and twin-tipped skis,22-foot halfpipes and double-cork rotations are my main sources of adrenaline, the truly addictive core of extreme sports.
Like all bewitching lovers (at least the ones in the novels I read, for lack of real world experience) this significant other can be ... mercurial. “Fear" is really an umbrella term for three distinct sensations: excitement, uncertainty, and pressure. I've learned that the nuanced indicators of each of these feelings can be instrumental to success when recognized and positively leveraged, and harbingers of injury when ignored.
Though it's easy to label extreme sport athletes as fearless or capricious, the countless hours I've spent visualizing tricks and practicing them in foam pits (foam. particles. everywhere) and on airbags (think giant Slip’N Slide) suggest otherwise. It's biologically counterintuitive for us to place ourselves in positions of risk, and while we make every effort to physically prepare, no amount of metaphorically safety-netted practice can equate to the unforgiving snow slope that rushes up to meet us after a steep kicker launches us into the air. Instead of ignoring fear, we build unique relationships with it by developing a profound sense of self-awareness and making deliberate risk assessments. 
The work begins with visualization Before I attempt a new trick, I feel a tightening high in my chest, between the base of my throat and the top of my diaphragm. I take a deep breath and close my eyes. As I ascend the gargantuan take off ramp, I imagine extending my legs to maximize lift. Then I picture twisting my upper body in the opposite direction) intend to spin, generating torque before) allow it to snap back the other way. 
Now, in my mind, I'm airborne. I see the backside of the takeoff immediately, then my flip draws my vision to the cloudless sky above me. My ears register the wind as a kind of song, every 360-degree rotation providing the beat to the music of my motion. As my feet come under me halfway through, I spot the landing for the briefest of moments before I pull my body into the second flip. I imagine my legs swinging under me as I return to a forward-facing position and meet the ground with my weight in the front of my boots.             1440 degrees. I smile. Then I open my eyes.
In the split second following my visualization, the knot in my chest flutters and spreads - those famous butterflies reaching their final stage of metamorphosis. Excitement, the child of adrenaline. mv true love and addiction That tantalizingly precarious balance between confidence in my ability to execute the trick safely and excitement for the unpredictable experience to come I've heard this state called "the zone, which is indeed where I was when I became the first female skier in history to land the double cork 1440 last fall.
It doesn't take much, unfortunately, for uncertainty to override confidence Imperfect preparation moistens my palms, pushes that tight spot down into my stomach and makes each breath shallower than the last. The feeling isn't panic, but something like dread. Danger cries every evolutionary instinct. If I should choose to look past this safety mechanism, my body may act autonomously in the air, twisting out of the rotation and forcing me to brace for impact out of fear that full commitment to the trick may end in disaster. Every freeskier's goal is to recognize the minute differences between excitement and uncertainty in order to maximize performance while minimizing the risk of injury.
Finally, there's pressure, an energy source that can be wielded in many ways. One's experience of pressure - by far the most subjective facet of “fear”- is affected by personal experiences and perspectives. Expectations of family and friends, a competitive streak, or even sponsorship opportunities can provide the scaffolding for a high-pressure environment. Pressure can be a positive force for competitors who leverage it to rise to the occasion, but it can also single-handedly dictate competitive failure.
But whether athletes alleviate or compound their innate desire to “prove themselves" depends largely on confidence. As I enter my early adulthood I'm proud of the work I've done to cope with pressure by bolstering my self-esteem and minimizing my need for external validation. I focus on gratitude, perspective, and on the joy this sport brings me, regardless of whether I'm alone or in front of a worldwide TV audience. Though my views of myself and the world are constantly evolving, one thing is for certain: no matter how much time passes. I'll always be a hopeless romantic when it comes to fear.

写的不错,mark一下

"People don't believe me, people don't like me, that's their lost. They are never gonna win the Olympics" "Cry ab it" 谷爱凌说得真好。见不得别人好,不能承认别人优秀的人,一般自己都很失败。

这句话把Olympics换成Nobel Prize, 杨振宁可以直接拿去用。杨不是也很优秀吗,为啥会有人不喜欢你知道吧,因为他俩一样,都是极端精致利己的典型。

首先我不站任何队,我是看版上一堆大妈污言秽语骂这个小姑娘,才开始知道她的。我一直都很搞不明白谷爱凌为啥不能代表中国参加比赛? 她母亲和中国滑雪界的关系非常密切, 谷说流利的中文, 每年暑假回国, 很小的时候就和中国滑雪界关系密切,很小的时候就有中国滑雪的赞助。 作为一个混血儿,一半中国血统一半美国血统, 觉得自己又是中国人又是美国人, 这有什么问题吗? 
如果你们自己的娃,说自己是美国人,不是中国人,你们都是啥反应啊?如果你们的娃长大了有能力被你们的祖国邀请代表祖国参见国际大赛,你们会跟你们的娃说不行,你只能代表美国?

是优秀,人家把优秀最大利益化也是事实 人家会运作,真的是不服不行,没有强大的内心或者是自我感觉超级好,一般人也承受不了,接下来在上层社会混也是顺水推舟 参考邓文迪和奶茶妹妹,但比起这俩人谷妹妹绝对可以更好,到那个时候代不代表华人就不是重点了,也没有人会讨论人家优不优秀,只剩望尘莫及的佩服

出名必然有人喜欢有人不喜欢,名气给人带来财富同时也没有了隐私 嫉妒是人性之一,看看周围的人再看看你自己,谁能保证一辈子没有嫉妒的时侯? 怕人嫉妒就低调,不能低调就要内心强大

她各种拿奖、出席各大场合,跟她自身能力出众自然是分不开的,不过和后面的资本和国内市场的支持应该也有很大关系。如果不是代表中国参赛拿金,肯定没有这么大流量,在名利场不会这么成功。华裔孩子成功是好事啊,小红书上还有人发帖说她可以做美国总统呢。真的参选我投她一票

这个赛季的比赛,她的参赛国籍不还是中国吗?至于你说的那个,把采访看完整了,她说的没错啊。
"Nobody can deny I''m American, nobody can deny I''m Chinese" and "Since I was little, I''ve always said when I''m in the U.S., I''m American, but when I''m in China, I''m Chinese."

谷妹妹真的是很优秀啊。承认人家优秀很难吗?在任何小众项目,你要能拿世界第一,那基本哪个藤校都随便你去的。光Essay里谈谈自己的独特感悟,就已经从无穷多的essay里脱颖而出了,更别说谷妹妹的essay还写得好。
再退一步说,人家SAT也考了1580,说明人家不止是世界冠军,学习也很优秀。虽然华人孩子SAT1580或者满分的不少,但凡自己有孩子真的去考过的,你去问问,1580是不是容易考?如果一次两次就能考出来的,那也基本是学霸了。
