In fact, this is not only for study, but also for work and life.
In reality, we have met many successful people with successful careers and happy families. They have only "superficial" success in winning our attention. As we all know, the efforts and hardships behind others are unexpected.
In other words, if we want to change and grow, we must approach the goal step by step.
I think, if there is a shortcut in the world, it is to learn from the predecessors and learn from their accumulated experience with time. Reading is the easiest way.
0 1 reading misunderstanding
For most adults nowadays, the intention to study is still at school. Maybe our current job is not in line with our original major, and some people even regret studying for so many years.
This is really a big misunderstanding in learning. Maybe you don't need textbook knowledge in your life now, but these useless things have been invisibly integrated into your cultivation and behavior.
Just like some people only read for the purpose. Solving the problem immediately is their first choice. In fact, learning needs to be extrapolated, and the best input is multi-angle, whether it is novels, psychology or philosophy.
They skillfully promoted you to many levels and deepened your understanding. The precipitation of all knowledge and the construction of the underlying logic expand the boundaries for your understanding and thinking.
In this way, after reading the books that I didn't understand before, all obstacles will be solved.
A lot of accumulation is like a catalyst. When you encounter problems in life, although you can't answer them one by one, your brain will search your known framework to promote the solution of the problems.
In other words, your intelligence today is the crystallization of knowledge.
We still have some other misunderstandings about reading. For example, I think reading is a private matter. This will frame yourself. Everyone has their own limitations, so communicate with others more.
First, you can refine your reading experience and test whether you really understand it; Second, it can be interpreted from multiple angles, which is also an inspiration to oneself.
Therefore, we should be open-minded about reading, which can not only promote the maturity of our minds, but also let us appreciate the colorful world.
02 book selection criteria
As mentioned above, some people think reading is useless, probably because they read some fast food bestsellers. Therefore, the criteria for choosing books are not only good-looking, but also useful. The first criterion of choice is science. The second is constructive.
You can start with the following categories. T tool class. Teach you some methods.
My concept class. Discover new ideas and ideas.
P applicability. Can be applied to real life.
This is scientific. Scientifically certified.
Judging whether a book is constructive or not is whether it is enlightening after reading it.
Whether it can bring us new meaning.
In order to have a strong motivation.
Will bring changes to our lives.
How to choose a book: you can look at the publishing agency, just like buying clothes to look at the brand. The books selected by some big publishing houses can stand the test.
Look at the author's background. The books summarized by some professors over the years are far more nutritious than the popular chicken soup articles.
Letter of recommendation is very important. I only read books recommended by people who read more than me. They are trained by years of reading experience. In this way, I also waste less time reading some useless books.
The main content of the book. The essence of a book is to present, analyze and summarize some problems. This is also the core of this book. If we grasp it clearly, we can conclude that it is a good book.
Another egg is the bibliography mentioned by the author in the book. Take it and read it. It must be good to open books.
03 written at the end
The so-called success is not achieved overnight, especially for the accumulation of knowledge, which is a process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change. Reading can not only make us progress, but also nourish our hearts.
Today, we are also saving for tomorrow, so lifelong learning is a subject that we will continue all our lives.
