He just graduated and passed the law exam. Now I'm learning to do cases from the master, and I'm a little confused about the future.
At the moment, he is leafing through a thick "brick" book, and I can't help asking him, "Why do you read this book?" He said, "I have nothing to do now. See the law. I am afraid I will forget. "
This is normal. I also went through that period. After taking the judicial examination, I feel that all the laws of the world are in my mind. After work, I was afraid to forget that there were a lot of professional books on my desk, which were neatly classified and thought of "preparing for a rainy day". In the end, those books sold a lot.
I asked him again, "Why are you afraid of forgetting?"
"I am afraid that the parties will come, and I can't answer."
"The law is updated every day. Can you keep up with all the laws? "
"I can't."
"Is it necessary?"
"No."
"Well, what do you think you should learn most when you are working?"
"I think I should learn how to communicate with the parties."
"Then I think you should read this book." I handed him the Bible of Communication on the desk. He turned a few pages and said, "Yes, this is it." Watching him turn over from the first page, I can't help but want to remind him. It is good to love learning, but can the academic learning style really adapt to the ever-changing workplace?
I think it's just right to share three ideas with him. He listened to my introduction and showed great interest.
I said to him: "Su Shi said at that time: It's too late to read again in this life. Especially now, China publishes 2 million books every day, and has more production knowledge than in the past thousands of years. Can you finish reading so many books? "
He shook his head.
"What is the purpose of your study at school?"
"Take the test."
"Come out from the school exam? Is it rare? " He nodded.
"What is the purpose of studying after work?"
"Solve practical problems."
"Do you still need to read the whole book to solve the problem?" He shook his head.
"What's the difference between reading a book just now and reading it now?"
"I used to remember that now I am looking for answers and solving problems in books with questions."
The school exam has planned the knowledge points to be tested, and the books to be read are relatively limited. The knowledge points to be tested are the purpose of learning. Therefore, it is appropriate to read a book from beginning to end and take notes on it. Because the content of the book is basically the content of the exam.
But after work, people need a variety of abilities, there is no scope for reading books, and what is related to the problem is the content to be learned.
In education, from the beginning of pregnancy, parents need to have parenting knowledge, such as prenatal education and early education; In kindergarten, we should teach handicrafts, literacy and poetry; When I was in primary school, I had to teach math and English. Learn time management, task management, communication, etc. There are so many things to learn that it is obviously inappropriate to study as before at this time. In the past, reading was based on books. The teacher tells the students what to learn, where the teacher talks in detail, where the students study hard, where the teacher draws the key points, and where the students review carefully. Reading a book with questions means treating the book as a doctor, and looking for a book to read if you have any questions. You don't need to master everything a doctor has learned, you just need to solve your own illness.
In other words, I used to treat books as teachers, but now I treat books as doctors, and I will go to see a doctor if necessary.
In other words: according to your needs, quickly find the answer from the book and solve the problem.
Some people say: Is this too utilitarian? This is not utilitarian. Maslow's demand theory mentioned that human needs can be divided into five categories: survival, security, self-esteem and respect, love, feelings and sense of belonging, and self-realization. Regardless of utilitarian learning or non-utilitarian learning, these five needs are inseparable. Reading novels may be to meet emotional needs, studying exams is to meet the needs of self-realization, and both are to meet the needs. How can it be utilitarian?
"Have you considered it? Just now you went to read a book on communication. Do you have any utilitarian ideas? "
He shook his head.
In a word, you don't have to read all the books. It is the consciousness of mature learners to formulate different learning strategies according to different learning goals.
? "See. There are standard answers in the exam, focusing on memory and taking books as teachers. There is no standard answer in work and life. The key is to solve problems and treat books as doctors. This is the best of both worlds, and it should be. What about the second idea? "
Learning ability is like a thunderstorm, and other abilities are like seeds. When spring comes and thunderstorms come, the seeds in the farmland will take root and sprout; Learning ability is like the operating system of a mobile phone, and other abilities are like application software. Improving learning ability is like upgrading Nokia's Symbian system to Apple's ios system. Mobile phones can only make phone calls and send text messages, and they can shop, listen to songs and watch videos at once. The so-called meta-ability is the root, the foundation of the house and the water source. It's about ability, which is fundamental.
He nodded frequently.
"Do you want to hear the third one?"
"ok."
Seeing that he was still interested, I then asked him, "Do you think the teacher is not good at reading?" He said, "Yes. When I was listening to the audio of the exam, a teacher didn't speak well. I think it will be annoying if I can't listen to it. "
I said, "Emotional control-a very important ability. Do you want to learn? "
"I want to learn."
? "Do you think your study efficiency will be better after learning emotional control?"
"Yes, it will be better."
"Complaining and fidgeting are negative thinking, and initiative is growth thinking. Which one do you choose? "
"choose to grow."
Mencius said that people who don't do well are asking for more happiness. Seek truth from oneself and grow up thinking. In learning, it is to encounter obstacles in all things related to learning, produce negative thoughts, ask questions on yourself, make demands on yourself and find ways.
At the end of sharing, I think I just said, "You don't have to read all the books; Learning ability is the meta-ability of all abilities; It is not enough to ask for self-help in all learning problems. Next time, I will tell him something about RIA's learning ability, such as post-it notes.
