The first step is to read the book you have selected as an open manuscript, which is the most basic requirement.
how long does it take to read a book? Some people say 48 hours, some say 4 hours, and some say 2 hours. Everyone's reading situation is different. However, the working efficiency in the opening manuscript writing is basically determined by your reading efficiency, so try to read a book in the shortest time.
After the training of fast reading, many people can read a book within one hour, and then clear their minds and bury themselves in writing. We will talk about this part of fast reading later.
To understand a book, everyone has to face three questions. The first question is what to read, the second question is why to read it, and the third question is how to read it.
then let's look at it one question at a time, and what to read first. Some people will think about asking editors to recommend books when writing an open manuscript. In fact, this is not a good way, because the books recommended by editors are not necessarily books you like or books you are good at, so you will encounter many difficulties in the process of writing an open manuscript, and you may not be able to persist. It's best to find your own books to write, and choose some fields that you like and are familiar with after all, so that the writing process will be smoother, the possibility of getting stuck will be smaller, and the possibility of successfully completing this manuscript will be greater.
so how do you find your favorite book? Here are four ways to introduce you.
the first method is to turn over the calligraphy. If you have time, you can often visit bookstores and community book centers to find out which books you like better. You can write down the titles of books or buy them back as food for writing open manuscripts in the future.
the second method is the subject list method. Open Baidu search for some keywords, and you can get the corresponding book list you want. For example, you can enter the names of theme books such as "Sleep Book List", "Education Book List" and "Weight Loss Book List" in Baidu search, and many recommendations will come out.
the third method is the correlation method. For example, in some book buying platforms, directly enter the fields you want to study, such as "sleeping books" and "parenting books", and many related books will come out.
the fourth method is the netizen recommendation method. This method is suitable for those who don't know what kind of books they are interested in. Open platforms such as WeChat Reading and Douban, and you can see many netizens' recommendations, as well as books related to the recommended books.
the second question of reading a book is why you should read it.
after reading a lot of books, many people will have little impression of the books they read after a period of time, and they can't say anything clearly. Because reading has no sense of purpose, just reading in general.
This section recommends a method for everyone, that is, before you read a book, you can write the name of the book on a blank sheet of paper, and then write down the reasons for reading the book with divergent thinking. After such repeated practice, you will be more directional and targeted when reading in the future.
the third problem in reading a book is how to read it.
Before talking about this question, you can choose a book from the shelf and see how long it will take to finish it, or set an alarm clock for an hour to see how much you can read in an hour.
the second step in writing an open manuscript is to find the key points of the book.
There are two ways to find books. The first way is to look at the table of contents. You can summarize the key points of a book from a one-or two-page table of contents. Not all chapters in the table of contents are key points, but some chapters serve the key parts. Whether it is the key or not, we have to look through the contents of the book to verify.
the second method is mind mapping. This method is a way to quickly clarify the frame structure and key points of a book, which we will focus on later.
the third step in writing an open manuscript is to tell the essence of the book in words.
A good book opening draft is definitely not a simple list of the key parts of a book. In that case, no one wants to read or listen to this book opening draft.
then how can we write an open manuscript that people are willing to listen to and understand?
these four words can clearly express this problem: I feel it. In other words, the manuscript you wrote must be emotional and logical.
Then how can you make others feel the value of this book through the opened manuscript you wrote, and how can it arouse the readers' * * *? First of all, you have to understand this book yourself, and you need to be able to understand what problems this book can solve and what inspiration it gives you.
A book is like a delicious piece of raw beef. The person who opens the book needs to cook the beef into delicious food and serve it to everyone.
Yes, the process of opening books is to make raw beef into delicious food for others to eat. You just pull a few knives casually, and the beef is still raw. Who can eat it?
so how do you cook this beef into delicious food?
One of the simplest ways, from the question to the question.
As a book opener, in the usual reading process, you should not only understand the words in the book, but also solve the questions in your heart. The so-called understanding of a book means really understanding the truth in the book, which can help you solve problems better. Therefore, in the process of writing the manuscript, we should start with examples and stories, and combine the truth in the book with our real life, so that everyone can understand the role of this book in real life and what problems it can solve.
