As Alina Zhang said in the Handbook of Life Efficiency, people who really benefit from reading have systematic reading methods. Teacher Gao is such a master of reading. He can read Yan Ruyu, read the golden house and hide the charming, and use it immediately after reading it. I listened to his wealth class with great expectation: "How to earn the first 1 10,000 by reading". I quite agree with Mr. Gao's view of reading. At the same time, I am also very grateful to Meng Jie for his recommendation, which gave us the opportunity to enjoy this feast of ideas.
? ? Teacher Gao put forward the view that "wealth changes fate and cognition determines the future".
First of all, we should realize the importance of reading. Why study after graduation? Teacher Gao emphasized that all successful people don't like reading. Sun Zhengyi had read 4,000 books in two years, and successful people such as Bill Gates, Buffett and Musk were full of praise for reading.
Reading is one of the fastest ways to change cognition. This is an era of lifelong learning, and reading a few books in an agricultural society is enough for a lifetime. However, in the Internet era, information technology is iterative rapidly, especially with the impact of the fourth industrial revolution and the arrival of the artificial intelligence era, simple and repetitive work will be replaced by machines. If you don't learn and innovate, you will be ruthlessly eliminated by the times. This is also the reason why more and more people are anxious.
The best way to relieve anxiety is to read more books and reduce uncertainty about the unknown. Teacher Gao specially recommended the book "The Fourth Industrial Revolution" to understand the social development trend and stand on the future layout so as not to go wrong. I think about it every day. Can my work function do it? How to keep my advantage?
? As a child coming out of the countryside, I deeply feel the importance of reading for us. Without resources and background, the college entrance examination is our best choice. I don't know what to do if I can't get into college. Help parents sell fruit, do some small business and get married early? The experience of helping parents set up stalls since childhood, being despised by some people, and often being chased by urban management is vivid. I'm afraid of that life. I hope reading can change my fate and let my parents live a better life.
After two college entrance examinations, I was admitted to two schools. I have always had a famous school complex, hoping to improve my life through postgraduate entrance examination. Unfortunately, the postgraduate entrance examination failed, and I was unwilling after work. I continued to take the exam and finally got into a key school. After graduation, I entered the university to teach, and I felt the importance of theoretical knowledge more. I continued my exams and studied for a doctorate. Along the way, I took many detours and gained growth.
? Although many people love reading, they forget it when they read it, and they are very moved when they read it, but they stay put when they read it. This is a matter of method. Why do we forget after reading, while others can earn 654.38+0 million by reading? Teacher Gao put forward the reading method in one sentence. A book is not about how much you read, but about understanding a sentence, remembering a sentence and using a sentence. Drucker's phrase "Do only one thing at a time" took 15 years, and it also took 15 years. He thinks that where your attention is, your time is, and your future is.
As the classic teacher put forward in the book "Transition", concentration makes you invincible, and iteration makes you improve.
Now I will ask myself questions when reading this book. What is the purpose of reading this book? This is the core sentence, and I will record it and post it in a conspicuous place, and think about what I should do. To apply what you have learned, as Gao said, reading does not necessarily mean reading for nothing.
? Teacher Gao said that what really motivates a person to change is when he encounters setbacks in life and has no way out. When there is no retreat, it is also the closest time to the truth. Do not experience the pain of the night, do not know the dawn. Why are some people content with the status quo? Because the pain is not enough, they can bear the consequences.
? It's like I'm talking about myself In the past two years, I have reached the bottom of my life. 20 15 just admitted to the doctor. I was very happy at first, but children over 2 years old were found to be stunted and fell behind their peers in all aspects. Her peers can talk, but she can't. When my peers can play football, she can't. When my peers will take the initiative to pee, she won't. What is even more frustrating is that the doctor told you that there is no cure for this disease, and you are going to raise her for life. Being a mother for the first time is like a bolt from the blue for me.
I can't accept this fact. I have high expectations for my child, hoping that she can go to the best university in the world. Now the doctor tells you that she may be a fool, and God played a huge joke on you, as if her own sky were falling. During that time, I seemed to be living in a dream, spending all day in Lacrimosa, complaining about insomnia. Why me? I think my life is over. Despair, even the idea of suicide.
Later, I began to read related books and participate in training and study. Books gave me strength, and I decided to save my children. I am her only backer and hope. One book, Walking with Snails, touched me. My child is like a little snail, walking slowly, it doesn't matter, I will lead you to move forward slowly and won't give up on you. I put down my studies and wholeheartedly accompanied my children to grow up. I take her to hospitals and rehabilitation institutions during the day and study books on rehabilitation methods at night, just for the sake of children's little progress. I usually squat down and talk to my children, and my attention is on them. All I think about is how to help her better. I don't believe in fate. I give up all entertainment and socializing, and everything is centered on the recovery of children.
I also began to rethink the true meaning of life. Health is more important than anything else, and family is always more important than others. I gradually realized that it was not I who took the snail for a walk, but the snail who took me for a walk. In the rehabilitation training, I found that there are many slow snails, but their parents still don't give up and make every effort to help their children. I am happy and moved by my child's little progress. In the eyes of parents, every child is unique and an angel in their eyes.
? After two years of rehabilitation and careful nursing, my child has gradually improved in all aspects, and his language ability and self-care ability have improved. After the 4-year-old child went to kindergarten, I began to think about my studies and future at this time. I was not in the mood for preparation two years ago, and this year is the last year. In other words, it takes me less than 1 year to complete my three-year studies. The pressure can be imagined.
I thought about giving up. What can I do if I can't graduate? Work experience is not as rich as others, and age has no advantage. Later, I saw Dr. Yoshida's research at Harvard and was very encouraged. The author prepares for Harvard while taking care of two children. In order to seize the time to prepare for the exam, she got up at three o'clock in the morning to review and used all kinds of spare time to study during the day. With busy work and family, it took only half a year to prepare for Harvard.
? I told myself that I must finish my studies on 20 18. I began to study time management, and bought Alina Zhang's Life Efficiency Manual, Life Management Tutorial and some courses of other teachers. From February this year, I got up at 7 o'clock, and slowly got up at 4 o'clock in the morning, or even earlier. At present, I insist on getting up early 125 days and haven't slept once. In order to live a long and healthy life and spend more time with my children, I started running three times a week, a total of 46 1 km, 10 1 time.
In the past four months, I have bought more than 10 thousand yuan of books and read more than 200 books. Now I basically read two books every day, and began to write reading notes and essays in March, totaling 654.38+ 10,000 words. It also influenced a group of friends to get up early to study. Just like Sister Meng said, you can grow up faster by being an example of a different kind and accepting everyone's supervision. Through reading, my thinking has changed a lot, from fixed thinking to growing thinking. I am grateful for the tempering of life, and I am no longer afraid of any challenges.
As Sister Meng said, every difficulty means an opportunity. Overcome challenges and you will grow.
Although I love reading, the method of reading is far from that of Mr. Gao. You must read widely to establish contact. Methodological and common sense books should be read, such as Principles, Hidden Rules and The Fourth Industrial Revolution. And China's ancient classic books, such as Tao Te Ching, The Analects of Confucius and The Art of War. He reads at least 300 books a year, excluding newspapers and magazines. At the same time, Mr. Gao also stressed that reading should have an exit, and reading historical figures can give him a resume. Most importantly, reading is useful, and the best learning is practice. Integrating theory with practice can save a lot of detours.
I don't read enough, I don't read enough classic books and I don't output enough. After listening to Mr. Gao's class, I immediately did the following three things:
1, bought all the books recommended by Mr. Gao and began to read the output mind map;
2. Establish a study group: a 30-day effective study and growth group, and urge everyone to learn to punch in every day. This month, the focus is on output; My requirement for myself is to output 2000 words of papers or a mind map every day.
3. Broaden the reading range and start reading classic books, especially the traditional culture of China.
Meng Jie's words often appear in my mind: Who you walk with determines your future. Why and high-energy success? I have summed up a formula: clear goal+efficient reading+people-oriented teacher+strong execution+resumption = success. They are my role models. People who are better than you study so hard, why don't you study? People who are more successful than you are so diligent, why don't you slack off? If we can persist and grasp the trends and laws of the times, I believe everyone has a chance to succeed, and it is not a dream to realize the first 1 10,000 in life.
