The learning ladder from passive to active reading

Ladder from passive learning to active learning

From the past to now, all of us have known that reading is a good thing, but we rarely meet friends who have the habit of reading around us, and even ourselves, we will always use many reasons to convince ourselves that such behaviors and habits are not established. s reason.

This time I gained a very interesting way of reading. I didn't expect to see reading as an investment. Next, let's take a look. What are the benefits and methods?

What are the benefits of reading?

• Enhance interpersonal skills. From reading books, we can know the experience and development of an author and even his values, which will allow us to build empathy, and knowledge and knowledge will also make people calm, otherwise people who do not read Easier to be stubborn.

I fully agree with this point. From listening to a book every day, I get a lot of insights from the book, and then I build knowledge through later search and learning. When I chat with other friends during the Chinese New Year holiday, I will always tell them inadvertently. Some little knowledge, you can feel incredible from their reactions, and even in the establishment of interpersonal relationships, it will make you think this person is very interesting. Every time you communicate with him, you can have a different feeling.

• Maintain the level of intelligence. As we grow older, our physical strength, energy, and brain power will begin to become less flexible than when we were young. We can train muscles and endurance through exercise, but we can continue to strengthen through reading. It's like training a muscle so that it doesn't drop our level over time.

• I think it is very important to take back the initiative in life , to be firm in your choice, and to face the world in the right way and in the right way. Explore answers in your own way, far more free than others can give you.

• To treat electronic anxiety , carry a book with me, which reminds me that Charlie Munger will carry a book. Even if he has an appointment with someone at a certain place, he will arrive ahead of time and open a book carefully with his own time. This I haven't been able to achieve the realm myself, but during my dedicated time, I will stay away from my mobile phone. Nowadays, it's becoming more and more difficult for people to contact me easily. I remember Mr. Fan said to keep his time online. , check the mobile phone reply messages regularly, maybe I only do 30%

2. Reading is a low-risk, high-reward investment

After we buy a book, read it at the best time and with the most efficient speed and method. The purpose of buying this book is to get the highest closing value in a single reading. After buying a book back, put ourselves Integrate your daily living habits with this reading time point, but you can use the method in the previous article to create a reading plan!

In addition, we also have to do some operations on these books. If it can't be done, we can add leverage to him. We have to leave our own mark on every corner of the book. If the last book is torn by us, it will be a success. This book has become part of your assets.

How to do it

• Folding: You can judge the number of folds to determine which part is important
• Line drawing: here provides three-color note-taking method, prepare red pen, blue pen, green pen to carry out

The red pen marks , mainly the core subject of the book is also the main essence, which is objective. When you flip this book over again, if you don't read the red pen to make a mark, if you miss this book, it will not be established, just like the soul is missing.

Blue pen marks : mainly to assist the last core theme, but also objective. There are many condensed sentences here. You can also understand the outline of this book. It is a relatively important part. The amount of information here is also relatively large. There are basically blue notes in different chapters of the book.

Marking with green pen : Different from the first two, marking with green pen belongs to the subjective level, that is, we personally find it very interesting, and it belongs to personal judgment and marking. I think this is the most representative of our own feelings.

In addition, we should also make good use of the margins on the four sides of the book. We should always bring our own questions into it. Remember the previous book when we learned about acquired abilities, we can first write the questions we want to ask in the The catalogue, and then look for the answers that can answer the question from the catalogue, and the blank space around the inner pages of the book is to reinforce again, perhaps to make the questions and answers more profound.

3. Create an author's resume

The main core here is to let us take the initiative to study. Compared with the textbooks designated by the teacher during the student period, we passively accept it. It is our business to study poorly. On the contrary, active learning means that we have the right to choose , and we can choose the books ourselves. And there is a way to choose a book. This is the method that no one told me when I was reading. Often when we buy books in bookstores, we choose books, and this method is that we choose authors, so before buying a book, we must first The author makes some understanding, just like interviewing him, there are five aspects we can investigate:

1. Core theory : Here you can find it from the information on the Internet, and the content of this part has a benchmark. We have to find the most repeated argument from the many arguments. This is the core theory.
2. The author's representative works: Arrange the author's works by time, think about the author's works and the logic between them, and start reading from the latest works.
3. The author's teacher or the school he has studied : This series of information represents the author's method of researching the problem. The focus of learning in different fields is different. We must first think about which side we want to understand. The point is to find the identity and author that can convince you the most.
4. The author's students or inheritance : It is very interesting to be able to cut into the circle of friends of some authors from the book cover or the recommendation sequence in the book, and this information is usually some identities or supporters of the author's ideas. In addition, It may also be possible for the translator to cut in. This is interesting, and I think it's a place to find clues.
5. The author's opponent : who and what the author wants to correct, who has hindered the author, who has been opposed to him. From the author's opponents, we can understand what position the author is in, because what the author insists on may be his uniqueness, because what he dares to insist, feels different from some people, and dares to be the enemy of the whole world, then It must be his most confident content. Through the core theory of the first point, we can also know his final position here.

In this article, we have learned a lot from these three ways of active reading. We always learn from history to learn the experiences and processing methods of different characters, and even find people who are similar to ourselves. Reading a book is actually this concept. I read to find solutions, learn knowledge, and then find people who are close to me and agree with me from many authors.
