While visiting several bookstores in Beijing, I also assigned a task to a good friend who lives in Chengdu, let her look around, and then write an article, which can be regarded as fulfilling my wish.
Soon, her article was finished, which was quite sentimental. I like it very much. I haven't changed a word, but I changed the original title "There is nothing wrong with Fang" to "Fang: I hope to return to the era of reading more poems". This is my hope and the hope of scholars. However, that era has long passed.
Whenever I print books in my circle of friends, many people comment: "I want to read more, but I really don't have time!" " ""How do you read so many books with your baby? "All this.
Is it so difficult to keep reading? Do you really have no time?
Smartphones can use all your time. Our patience is getting less and less, and we are finally attracted by a title. After opening it, let's have a look and then close it immediately. What are the real concerns? Almost all of them are lies, anecdotes, snooping and other meaningless things. They will never remember it after reading it. Besides, what are we more eager to see? It is nothing more than the so-called "dry goods". We look forward to finding the key to getting rich from the "dry goods" shared by successful people, and fantasize about becoming the second NB person through this shortcut. However, even if the title party is not working-the article is irrelevant, even if there is really "dry goods", can life really be copied?
Think carefully, why is it so difficult for us to read deeply? In the past, our reading media were books and magazines. Later, the website reported a lot, and then, the media surged. Especially the popular WeChat. Many big WeChat articles are actually typeset in an incredibly centered alignment. What are the consequences of this typesetting? It makes our vision consciously pay attention to the middle point of each line of words, and then move down in the unit of behavior. Under the guidance of wechat, our reading has become a brush screen, brush brush. In fact, this is a fast reading method, but the premise of fast reading and deep reading is repeated reading. However, how many people are willing to read it again and again? What's more, how many WeChat articles are worth reading repeatedly?
In retrospect, how boring this life is!
I really want to go back to that "era when I read too many poems".
Don't attack the author of WeChat yet, after all, I also belong to this big army.
What I deeply understand is that every time I don't update the article every week, I have to drop a few powders.
In fact, I update slowly for two reasons:
First, although I read books every day, not every book is worth recommending. I always want to keep improving and recommend books that are not worth reading, which not only wastes my own time, but also wastes everyone's time.
Secondly, it may be related to my reading habits: whenever I meet a good book, I always read it over and over again, at least twice. I like to compare different versions, which can not only restore the original appearance from multiple angles, but also recommend the best version to everyone. I have read some books, such as The Great Gatsby, which Haruki Murakami thinks is the greatest work, but I still can't write a book review. Why? Because I haven't read the original. I'm afraid it's hard to really evaluate this kind of book objectively without reading the original. After all, it is almost impossible for any translation to fully express the beauty of the original.
It can be seen that reading requires quality rather than quantity.
This era has been very impetuous. If we continue to read superficially, we will eventually get nothing but waste a lot of time.
While reading, please ask yourself: What is the meaning of reading?
At first, I was at a loss. At that time, although I bought a lot of books, I only read three or five books a year. After reading them, I was done, and I was not confused at all. The result is that I read it for nothing.
Many people have the same confusion-they can't remember anything after reading so many books. How can they break it?
My answer is: read repeatedly+write reading notes.
Reading is not only to read all the words with your eyes, but also to remember and think. This is also the original intention of opening this official WeChat account. I just hope I can read more, write more and think more, and don't waste a lot of time on useless things.
Practice has proved that the opening of the official WeChat account has indeed achieved certain results. No matter how many fans there are, after all, I really read books every day, the depth of reading and thinking is unparalleled, and I am more insightful in choosing books (I don't read all successful inspirational books; Pseudopsychology books, such as Jianghu Psychology and Chicken Soup for the Soul, I won't read them. I don't read biographies of sports stars; Best sellers should also be carefully selected), paying more attention to the vertical depth of reading.
Whether you are studying or doing other things, you can't rush for success. In fact, reading a book every day is really simple. As long as you master a certain method (refer to the previous article) and practice it, it is easy to do it and anyone can do it. But it is very difficult to really read a book thoroughly, because for us who are more and more impetuous, deep reading has gradually drifted away.
