"Reading This Way Is Enough" (Zhao Zhou) is the second book that I rated as "◎.: Very good, I want to recommend it to everyone". From the knowledge system construction, book selection and reading are both There are specific and clear methods, especially the "sticky note method", which is a good tool for applying what you have learned.
The 7 steps of dismantling book knowledge using the sticky note method are: 1. Apply, 2. Taobao, 3. Restate, 4. Internalize, 5. Apply, 6. Instruct, and 7. Display, among which 2, 3, 4, and 5 is the point.
The first step is to apply, that is, the scope of application of the sticky note method, the sticky note method is suitable for practical books, such as some skills books or advice books, etc. The scope is actually very wide, as long as you subjectively think Obtaining certain knowledge from books and applying them can be regarded as practical books, but leisure books or interest books can be read as much as you like.
The second step, Taobao, is to discover the content in the book that you think is important. The important content we find may be "misaligned" with the key content emphasized by the author. That is, we cannot understand or are not interested in the part that the author wants to teach us. However, some of the words he lightly mentioned may be because they are not relevant to us. Our own experiences create connections and become the focus of our attention, just like the chef in a restaurant cooked a table of dishes and said how delicious the signature dish is, but we think the most delicious one is probably the stir-fried green vegetables.
To discover the important content in the book, you can use Nobuyuki Okuno's "three-step reading method", that is, read through, reread and mark. The first time of "reading through" is to read a book from beginning to end, skip what you don't understand, and fold a corner of the page when you encounter an interesting part; the second time of "rereading" is to read the book with a corner of the page. Read those pages again, and if you still feel good about it, fold the other corner of that page; "Mark" the third time, read the pages with the two corners folded again, and review the important content. Draw lines, circle keywords, and then extract the content that cannot be discarded into a notebook, and write down your thoughts. The excerpts and thoughts should be done alternately.
The third step is to restate, that is, restate the information in your own words. On the I note (yellow), use your own words to restate the key content you have chosen to absorb. You cannot directly excerpt the original text. It is best to process these content into specific operation methods or step suggestions.
The fourth step, internalization, is to describe your own relevant experience. On the A1 sticky note (orange), describe the story that you have personally experienced. This story must have specific time and events, the events must have a cause and effect relationship, and the content corresponds to our original text or the retelling of the sticky note. The purpose of this is to connect the knowledge we learn with our experiences and emotions, so that we can better understand the knowledge and consolidate long-term memory.
The fifth step is application, which is describing goals and actions. On the A2 note (green), write "goal" on the first line. The setting of goals must comply with the SMART principle. The general idea is that there must be a specific time limit for completing the goal and a description of the level of mastery. Write "action" on the second line. Each step of the action must be clear about what to do and to what extent. There must be a specific time schedule. The key is to apply the method provided in our original article or I note.
Step six, instructions, use labels of three different colors to stick on the page where we select important content to remind us that this page contains the content we are concerned about. For example, yellow means "valuable", green means "act as soon as possible", and orange means the note "needs to be processed again".
The seventh step is to display. Post all the A2 sticky notes completed in the book on the wall or refrigerator to urge us to act as soon as possible and apply what we have learned.
In addition to dismantling book knowledge, the sticky note method can also be used to question and reflect on experience, as well as analyze and organize fragmented information.
To question and reflect on experience, the first step is to use A1 notes to write down the problems we urgently need to solve, such as "I can't read books, I can't read books"; the second step is to use I notes to ask questions. "Causes and consequences" and "applicable boundaries", discover the essence of the problem, and then we see if there is a ready answer to this problem. After all, "there is nothing new in the world". The problems we encounter may have been encountered and solved by others. In this way We can use the "sticky note method" to adapt their methods to our own use. For example, after questioning, I found that I could not read or understand books. The essential problem was that I did not know the effective reading methods that suit me. Through Baidu and Zhihu, I learned that there are many books introducing reading methods. What I have to do is Browse through these books, find a method that suits you, slowly improve in practice, and finally form your own unique reading method.
To analyze and sort out fragmented information, the first step is to write an I note, which is to restate the fragmented knowledge we encounter in our own words by asking about the "causes and consequences" and "applicable boundaries"; the second step The first step is the A1 note, describing your relevant experience; the third step is the A2 note, planning goals and actions. For example, we are accustomed to the information that "people need to sleep 8 hours a day to be healthy." We need to ask how this information is derived, what is the standard of health, under what conditions is it necessary to sleep 8 hours, is there anyone who does not need to sleep 8 hours? , or you need to sleep for more than 8 hours to be healthy. What will happen if you don’t sleep for 8 hours. After a series of questioning, we learned that health means normal physiological indicators of the body and a good mental state. For children, many experts recommend sleeping for more than 8 hours to ensure children’s physical development. Adults have personal physiological characteristics. , the required sleep time is different, some sleep for four or five hours, and they can be full of energy at the end of the day. From news reports, we can know that some successful people fall into this category, and many elderly people do not need to sleep for 8 hours to stay energetic. To sum up, all of the above As mentioned above, "sleep enough for 8 hours to be healthy" is not a universal health principle. We must find a suitable work and rest time based on individual physiological differences while ensuring good mental and physiological conditions.
To build your own knowledge system, the method is to "draw inferences" about a knowledge point.
The first step is to restate, that is, restate the information in your own words, and clarify the essence of the information by asking about "causes and consequences" and "applicable boundaries".
The first is to ask about the "causes and consequences" to see if this information is valuable. "Previous" is a lesson learned from the past. Why is this important to me? How does the author elicit this information; "cause" means mutual regeneration. What assumptions does the author make about the cause? How were these hypotheses verified or ruled out? Are there other possibilities? The "after" is? To see the aftereffects, what will happen if I act on this information, what benefits will it have to me; the "result" is to reap the consequences, what will be the consequences if I don't do this.
The second is to inquire about the "applicable boundary", sort out the information and determine whether it is true or false. "Suitable" means counterproductive. Does this information have an opposite point of view? Are there any examples that do not support this point of view? "Use" means conditions for use. What conditions must be met to do this? Under what circumstances does it not work? "Bian" refers to side effects, whether there are similar views and information to the original view; "Jie" refers to the Chu-He-Han realm, the original view, similar views and opposite views. The difference between these three views is What, what is the junction?
The third step is internalization. Use A1 sticky notes to relate the information to your own experience, deepen your understanding of the information, and consolidate the long-term memory of the information.
The fourth step is planning. For your own goals and actions, implement the methods extracted from information China in your life, so that knowledge can generate value.
In this way, each information point will have 6 tentacles, cause and effect, applicable boundary, internalized A1, and planned A2. The knowledge points will be connected to each other through tentacles to form a stable knowledge system.
When choosing a book, you must first determine your reading theme, and then go through the four steps of "audition", "blind date", "life" and "replenishment" to find books that suit you.
? The first step, "audition", according to the topic of reading, search for recommended books on the topic on Zhihu and Baidu, and then you can read the content introduction of these books through Dangdang.com or Amazon.com and reviews to filter out books that are suitable for your reading.
? The second step, "blind date", is to read through all the books on the book list in a short time. You can use the methods of inspection reading and read-through to get a rough understanding of the content of each book, and then according to your own Based on subjective feelings, choose a book that you think is most suitable or that you want to read the most as an "introductory book" on this topic.
? The third step is to "live a life". Select the "introductory book" and read this book carefully. Put other books on the shelf first. The method of intensive reading is the sticky note method, so that you can build a A framework on this topic.
? The fourth step is to “replenish”. After reading the "Introductory Book" intensively, we can read other books on the book list, and add the information that is not in the "Introductory Book" to the knowledge framework of the "Introductory Book" through the sticky note method to enrich and improve our knowledge on the topic. knowledge system.
