No matter the students at school, the workplace white, or the company executives, they all have deep worries and doubts about their knowledge reserves.
Buying books, reading books, listening to the audio of lectures, and reading books recommended by many coffees have become the cultural consumption pattern of the whole people. There are photos of "reading in the sun" in the circle of friends, and there are slogans such as reading 300 books a year.
Some people can read a lot of books and digest them well at the same time. Some people read a lot of books, but they get little. What is the reason?
Many people are busy with work and work, and they study hard. This spirit is commendable, but the effect is not ideal. Why?
Because you don't concentrate on your studies, some people say it's no use telling you. What can I do without paying attention?
Then let's see why we don't mind.
First of all, it depends on the state of reading. If you are worried about a plan at work, a few figures and a scolding from the leader, you can't concentrate on books. Can you really tell at this time?
Furthermore, we can read an article within a few thousand words in fragmented time, but a book is at least 654.38+ million words, which is a self-contained system with logical structure and progressive layers.
Using sporadic time to study exclusively is likely to "fragment" your thinking. After reading it, what you remember is basically scattered. Watch it for another hour or a few days, and you won't be able to connect.
Some people say it's because my mind is full, or I don't have time to record anything at all.
The output after reading can take several forms, including writing reading notes, explaining or sharing the contents of the book to others, writing an open draft or lecture, drawing a mind map of a book, and even doing role-playing and re-creation.
At least one thing must be satisfied in order to satisfy the phased output after reading this book.
Because the essence of reading is not reading, but using.
Either improve reading speed, acquire knowledge and skills, or guide practice.
After reading a book, we can remember very little. According to Ebbinghaus's forgetting curve, if you don't strengthen it in time, you will soon forget everything. What is the application?
The method of reinforcement is output.
After reading a book, you have to rush to read the next one before you have a good aftertaste, just like eating. I didn't digest my taste and went to eat something else. In the end, I was addicted to speed at a glance, and there was no substantial gain.
In life, women's skin care products, fashion, men's watches, cars, children's milk powder, schools, everyone is meticulously looking for a good brand that suits them, hoping to spend money on the cutting edge, and choosing a book publishing house alone, but they are too lazy to think.
Just as everyone has advantages and disadvantages, there are also advantages and disadvantages that he is good at and not good at. Publishing houses also have their own advantages and disadvantages. What kind of books to choose, what kind of demand to have and which publishers to correspond to should be the knowledge that a rational reader should master.
So how can we ensure that we can gain something after reading?
Not only career needs planning, but also study needs planning.
First of all, what is the purpose of your study? For example, if you want to write articles in vertical fields, you need to concentrate on reading books in related fields for a period of time. And write reading notes every day. Targeted inputs and outputs.
Secondly, the books you read need to be consistent with your cognitive level. Some people heard that history books are very good, so they enthusiastically bought a set. As a result, they found that they were all traditional Chinese characters and could not understand them at all.
There are others whose English level is average, and they can't tell the subject, predicate and object from slightly longer and more difficult sentences. They insist on reading the original English, which really makes them feel bad. These are all situations where demand cognition and reality are misplaced.
Third, control the pace and progress of reading. Try to read in a complete period of time and avoid rushing, rushing and reading loosely. Make a rule for yourself, such as reading a book a week or finishing it in three days.
Finally, according to different types of books, choose intensive reading and selective reading. For example, books on classic literature and novels should be carefully read, with emphasis on the choice of vocabulary, the portrayal of characters and the conception of plots; As for reference books, we can pick up dry goods as the key memory object to read.
Different publishers and translators have their own advantages, and your reading experience is also different. We can go to related websites, such as Douban and Zhihu, to find out the comments of people who have read books, and to find out which publishers and translators' books are better and more suitable for us to read.
People with reading experience summed up a series of experiences in choosing a publishing house. For example, if you want to choose books of historical ancient books, try to choose books with deep qualifications in this field, such as Zhonghua Book Company and Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House.
Social sciences and humanities can choose Guangxi Normal University Press; Books on economic management can choose CITIC Publishing House;
In short, what suits you is the best.
Ensure that you are calm and willing when reading, and don't "fake reading" for the sake of reading and appearance.
