Some people feel that they have read a lot of books, but it seems that it has no effect, and there is not much to remember after reading. This is not a good reading method.
In the book "High Score Reading Method", Shinoka Ichiro mentioned the idea of making a fake, that is, making a "map" before reading, so that in the process of reading, there are more goals and directions.
There are four steps in making a map.
The first is to set the "destination", that is, what you want to achieve by reading this book. Note that the goal here can be set higher. For example, if you want to know a certain field, it is better to set the goal as "complete understanding" than "half knowledge".
Because you don't know how far you can go before you study. If your destination is a little farther away, you may get to the point where you want to go. There is an old saying: take the law and you will get it. This is also the case.
Then make a "specific route" through the catalogue, that is, which chapters can achieve the reading purpose just set.
The next step is to determine the "starting point", that is, to assess what level you are at, whether you don't understand at all or know something. If you know where you are, you can be targeted and improve your efficiency when you study.
Before reading, write all these in a note, and during reading, constantly modify the "map" according to the actual situation of reading. The "destination" and "route" can be modified at any time to make the "map" more complete and accurate.
Reading pictures can help us to read a book from a macro perspective. The previous binding reading method is a microscopic angle, and the combination of the two can understand a book more effectively.
