(1) Enrich the heart and eliminate loneliness.
Many people have just graduated from college and started renting their own houses. When I came home from work at night, I felt very tired and no one spoke. Loneliness comes to mind. In fact, this time is very suitable for picking up books to read. Reading is a self-healing process, just like talking to yourself, you won't feel lonely.
(2) increase your knowledge and enrich your conversation.
Chatting with friends, I always feel I can't get in touch. Maybe it's because you are inexperienced, or maybe you don't read much. People who read widely can join the discussion in their own way on any occasion. Of course, everyone likes to be with people with a wide range of knowledge and interesting words ~
(3) Know yourself better and improve yourself.
In the process of reading, we may have all kinds of questions, but with the increase of reading, these questions will be gradually eliminated. In this process, we have a deeper understanding of ourselves, and at the same time have a clearer understanding of some of our own shortcomings. Together with targeted and deliberate practice, we can get better and better. For example, when you read a book about controlling bad emotions, you find that you hurt others unintentionally. Finding a problem is the first step to solve it. I believe you will soon master the skills of emotional management.
(4) increase the depth of thinking and become more temperamental.
Reading is not only to increase knowledge, but also to exercise the way of thinking and our brains. People who read more books have better judgment standards in their minds, are good at independent thinking, and are less likely to quarrel with others because of a trivial matter, because they know that everything is reasonable, they can see things dialectically, and their conclusions are more rigorous and reliable.
