(Chapter 304) Manage Yourself
Hu Ye said, "I'll teach you a lesson."
"How to open the mind, how to use the mind to be friends with time, how to understand the meaning of time management, make a breakthrough in time management, and then use the mind to start your own journey of life success, the well-known blogger Li Xiaolai will share with you one by one. This is a self-saving book that will help you move towards independence and freedom.
The reason why this book has had the greatest impact on me is that it has taught me a lot more truths and useful facts than the big truths we often hear. Knowing these facts, I immediately changed the way I did things in the future.
It's yourself who has to manage, not your time. Yes, many times, a lot of time is wasted because our minds are too active and distracted by other things to do what we are supposed to do. For example, in the dormitory, due to the distractions of music, games, and entertainment on the computer, it is impossible to complete homework, do what should be done, and learn what should be learned. But only by focusing on gathering can we really accomplish the task at hand efficiently. Concentration, self-control, and not being distracted from the outside world require us to manage ourselves.
The wisdom of life is to concentrate on changing what can be changed, and ignore what cannot be changed for the time being. Concentrate on building yourself and build yourself into a good person, a useful person, an independent person, this is more important than anything else. To build yourself is to build a network. - We can't help but look at the successful people, who are focused on building themselves. If you become stronger, bigger, and better than others, someone will naturally come to you for help and solve problems that they can't solve by themselves; Or work with you. In the process, the network is naturally established
First of all, it's not that these people are not interested in what they are doing (professional learning), but that they are not capable of doing what they are currently doing well. As long as you can do something well, and do it better than anyone else, or at least better than most people (with a sense of achievement, there is a reward, you will spend time and energy to continue to work hard, and get a greater sense of achievement), you will not be uninterested in that thing. -This made me understand: many times we are not good at learning on our own, so we use the excuse that we are not interested in the major, and do not spend time and energy on learning. After making excuses like this, if you don't study, how will you know whether you have the ability to do a good job?
Actually, I personally don't believe in any career planning. I just use my experience to come to my own conclusion: no one can give me a career plan. - Life and career planning is the time of a lifetime. Do we have the ability to do this plan, and more importantly, do we have the ability to execute this plan? Especially for us college students, we don't know a lot of things, and we really have too little experience in life, and there are too many changes in life. Do we generally have college students who have the ability to make this life plan? If not, should we really do the things in front of us and let ourselves gain all the time, maybe this is more realistic than planning.
Open your mind, use your mind, and be liberated. The mind can be developed, cultivated, rebuilt, and even rebuilt repeatedly. Not capped. -Different minds, different paths in life. The mind is extremely subtle, and it is often ignored by us ordinary people, but it determines all kinds of different life trajectories. For example, when some people can't understand geometric algebra, others can imagine supercubes that cannot be observed in reality with their minds alone, and if they understand that the mind is the determining factor, they will not be surprised by the special functions of these people. Everyone should strive to open their minds and achieve their own life.
6. Laziness is the root of all problems
Laziness is everywhere and is justified by all sorts of excuses. If we don't find out that this is a serious problem, then we will continue to excuse ourselves for our laziness and end up with nothing. If you don't spend time and energy studying professional courses; not to practice; Reading books without using the pen and without using the brain; Reading books is just passing by, swallowing dates; not going to class; Takeaway (fast food or roommates); Wait a minute. After reading this book, you may find that many of your excuses are untenable, and then change yourself.
We can control our brains with our own brains, and if you don't control your brains, you're controlled by your brains, and you may be controlled by others. For example, you will be driven by desire to do something that you will regret deeply when you are sober and reasonable. When you are doing something, you believe the words of others, and make decisions that you regret or even anger later; Wait a minute. We need to learn to take control of our brains and let them guide the behaviors to serve our desired outcomes.
Just like financial management, you know how to plan your time when you know how to use it – time is not saved, it is planned. Through "event-time logging" records, we can perceive time precisely, which can enrich our memories; What's more: we can adjust our perception of time, and it's easier to identify "realistically achievable goals" when estimating any amount of work.
By learning, we can avoid detours and achieve our goals faster with methods that others have proven to be effective
First of all, one should not rely too much on the teacher.
Second, understand that "doing best" and "teaching best" are often not the same thing at all. There will certainly be teachers who "teach the best", but often not the ones who "do the best". People who "do the best" often may not even necessarily teach, let alone "teach best." Did Tyson's coach beat Tyson? - Then the coach doesn't think he can punch so fast, right? However, he can train to produce boxing champion Tyson.
Learn everything, and harvest all the time. I don't know when my life will come in handy in the future? It's a very gratifying feeling. Therefore, we must have the mentality that we don't know what will be useful in the future, but we work hard to learn all kinds of things
I remember that I had read the contradictions in Marxist philosophy when I was in high school, and later read Chairman Mao's "Theory of Contradictions". When I first learned, I thought that the contradiction was the contradiction of "using the spear of the son and attacking the shortness of the son" in our daily life. Later, I gradually found that the contradictions were richer in content and more educational.
In philosophy, it is said that the relationship between opposites and unity contained in things is called contradiction. In other words, contradiction is the unity of opposites. Among them, "antagonism" refers to the attributes and tendencies of the two sides of the contradiction that are mutually exclusive and separate from each other, also known as "struggle". "Unity" refers to the attributes and tendencies of the two sides of the contradiction that attract each other and connect with each other, also known as "identity".
Contradictions exist in all things, and contradictions run through the whole process of the development of every thing. Contradiction is universal and objective, it is inherent in all things, and it is not subject to the subjective will of man. However, there are many people in our lives who avoid contradictions, deny contradictions, and cannot find a scientific method to understand and resolve contradictions. From Lao Tzu's conception of "small countries and widows" to Tao Yuanming's yearning for "paradise", they are all looking forward to discovering or building an "ideal world" without any contradictions. In fact, such a world does not exist at all. Throughout the ages, people have lived in a world full of contradictions. There is no world without contradictions. Therefore, we should recognize the objective existence of contradictions, and we should not evade or deny contradictions.
The theory of contradiction can be said to be seen all the time in our daily life, can be used everywhere, all the time, and everywhere. For example, the specific analysis of specific problems, the dialectical relationship between the main contradiction and the secondary contradiction, and the principle of the relationship between the main and secondary aspects of the contradiction are all of great help and inspiration to our lives.
First of all, from the perspective of the universality and particularity of contradictions, the universality of contradictions is that there are contradictions in everything, and there are contradictions from time to time. And its particularity refers to the contradictory things and their respective aspects have their own characteristics. As Chairman Mao said: "If we do not study the particularity of contradictions, we will not be able to determine the special nature of a thing that is different from other things, we will not be able to discover the special reasons or special grounds for the development of the movement of things, we will not be able to distinguish things, and we will not be able to distinguish the fields of scientific research." Idioms such as "prescribing the right medicine for the case", "tailoring the case", "teaching students according to their aptitude", and "adapting measures to local conditions" all tell us a truth, that is, we must analyze the characteristics of things in detail.
