Do all the fish in the world eat the same?
Let's take a look at the answer to quora's highest vote:
I ate a lot of food when I was a child. Most of it has long been forgotten, but some of it must have become my own flesh and blood.
Think of reading as the same thing for the brain.
Translation:
I ate a lot when I was a child, and now I can't remember what I ate, but what is certain is that some of it has grown into my bones and flesh.
The same is true of reading's ideological transformation.
In fact, books can be roughly divided into three categories: fiction, non-fiction and auxiliary. The reading method that quora answers is only suitable for reading fictional books, such as novels, poems and plays. The process of reading this kind of book is a kind of enjoyment, and it also makes us "poetic", but it will not change us immediately in the short term, and we don't have to read it with a utilitarian heart.
In fact, reading practical books in non-fiction books is what we ordinary people just need. Because we have too many excellent methodologies to know and too many truths to understand, we can grow faster only by reading non-fiction books, which is directly related to our promotion, salary increase and money making.
Practical books can be divided into two categories: rule explanation and rule principle. We can look at the explanations and examples in the figure below:
If you still believe quora after reading such books, you are really caught in an ineffective effort and don't know it.
Next, I will talk about how to read practical books!
1, don't look around for a big v for a book list. Choose books according to your current problems and short-term goals. The best way to read practical books is to use the knowledge in them to solve problems immediately after reading them.
Don't read page by page from beginning to end. Be sure to look at the cover, preface and table of contents to determine what you want to read and where to start reading.
3. Don't finish reading it. Every time you finish reading a book, you should write reading notes. You can extract some helpful and enlightening sentence paragraphs from the book. Then follow the method in the book to solve the problem that prompted you to buy this book or achieve the purpose of prompting you to buy this book. Finally, combine the knowledge in the book with your own practice and write an article.
For example:
In order to form the habit of getting up early, I read this book: How to Change Habits.
Personally, I think that reading practical books can only be digested if the output and practice are achieved.
