What is it like to read a difficult book?

There will be a strong sense of honor and pride, and I feel that I have accomplished a great thing, because only when something really difficult is completed, there will be a sense of accomplishment. Although the process was a bit bumpy, for example, I had read Keynes's general theory of employment, interest and money before. In the beginning, the book was very obscure.

Even after reading it, I still don't understand many, many things, but I still understand Keynes's thoughts, and I think what he said is still very reasonable. Of course, I don't understand anything particularly profound, but I'm just looking at it as a hobby.

After reading it, I feel like I have been hollowed out, I can't calm down for a long time, there are thousands of words rushing in my heart, I really want to find someone to share, and I don't seem to be able to say it well, I'm afraid that I can't convey all the touches and surprises in your heart, I'm afraid that I will tarnish the sacred status of this book in your heart, but I really want people all over the world to know how good this book is.

At first, I feel that I will see each other late, but then I will feel that now is the best time to read it. My heart was shocked and grateful, and I couldn't wait to remember every word in it. Everything is alive, the characters, the words, and the writers who wander between the lines.

The experience is that in the process of reading, I also need to look up books on the Internet, compare and study step by step, and then understand the meaning of this word and what this part of the book is about, such as advanced mathematics, which seems to be a textbook, but is actually a difficult and difficult book!

When you read it, it's like separating from your best friend, like breaking up with your boyfriend, it's a feeling of reluctance. When you read him, it's like a debate, and you keep thinking about it and keep scratching his holes.

It's a proud experience to read a difficult book and feel better than others.

Daigo empowerment, suddenly realized, suddenly enlightened, suddenly opened, suddenly opened, couldn't help but be happy, and hated each other. I feel that my heart is overflowing with emotion and satisfaction.

Every time I finish reading it, I can't let go, especially when I see it at the end, I think why this book is so short, and how good it would be if it was thicker. In the days after reading it, I always think of many pictures, scenes, and details in the book.

After reading it, I was excited and excited, I really wanted to share my joy with others, but I didn't know who to share it with and how to share it, because you don't necessarily love what I love, and you can't feel my enthusiasm and excitement.

Once I understood it, I couldn't stop until I finished reading it. I closed the book, looked at the dark sky around me, and suddenly wanted to find someone to talk to. But there wasn't much of anyone around.

After reading it, I was silent for more than a week, and I slowed down for a week before returning to real life. There have been many times when you have involuntarily entered the book as if it were your own life.

I thought it was very hard when I first watched it, but when I saw a certain point, I thought it was quite simple.

I was in a hurry, but my brain couldn't keep up and I couldn't understand. It understands me, and I don't understand it.

Do you mean Calculus and Advanced Mathematics? It's impossible to understand unless I am told that I have a final exam tomorrow.

The Pyramid Principle is a classic training material for McKinsey & Company, and a tool book that will benefit readers for a lifetime.

This book is a bit obscure, but I hope that I can keep reading, write about it, and meet a different version of myself.

1. Pain is the direction, and pain is the drive.

Reading varies from person to person, and not everyone is suitable for reading the same book. This book, I felt obscure when I read it, and even had thoughts of giving up, which is a normal thing.

The purpose of reading is to bring about change, and it is relatively easy to develop reading habits, but it must be a more painful process to rebuild the logical thinking skills of writing, expression, presentation, etc.

However, pain is direction. The pain in life is actually our precious life resource, which will spur us to change the status quo and point out the direction of our efforts.

Moreover, deliberately maintaining a "moderate amount of discomfort" will become a catalyst for growth, and it will bring a good feeling after harvest and achievement.

Therefore, the pain (and joy) that comes from reading this book, it will be the underlying driving force for self-change.

Second, we must persist and find meaning.

To do something, to give it meaning, reading this book is no exception.

Because, meaning is an agreement that makes me start acting; It also sets a boundary, shields the complex world around me, eliminates a lot of uncertainty, and allows me to operate in a small world of independence.

At the same time, the value of finding meaning is to let Nei Chongfan Zheng Xin completely accept reading this book, and let the subconscious mind lead me to act, instead of being dragged back by it hiding in my comfort zone, and one day I can't stick to it and change back to my original self.

The purpose of reading this book is to change myself. You can also find one or more reasons for yourself, even if it seems ridiculous, such as I want to read you, just see that you don't like it, and it will be a reason for you to stick to it effortlessly.

3. Combo punches and take your time.

Reading this book alone is very difficult and boring.

You can listen to this book in the Himalayas, like me, and listen to other people's interpretations, and read other people's articles on the pyramid principle....But the ultimate goal is to return to one's own reading, one's own experience, one's own reflection, and self-change.

Believe in yourself, be able to keep reading, write, and meet a different self.

Most people in the workplace have the experience of happily buying a book, starting to study diligently, and setting a plan to read 10 pages a day, so that a book can be read in 20 days.

But after I actually started reading, I couldn't hold on to the books that were a little difficult and needed to think about them, and I didn't even read half of them.

Few people ask themselves why they can't read anymore.

Hastily blamed the problem on the outside world, closed the book with peace of mind, and never opened it again. Sometimes, we blame our problems on the fact that there are too many distractions around us to calm down and study. Sometimes, we blame the problem on the fact that the book is too obscure.

Sometimes, we blame time for our problems—we have too little experience to comprehend what the book says.

At the same time, most people will still have the experience of physics and geometry that they couldn't learn in school, and now look back and see when those mountains became so short.

Again, few people have delved into why this is the case. It wasn't until I learned about knowledge blockage that I realized that those books were self-contained and logically coherent, and the reason why I couldn't learn them was because the accumulated knowledge was blocked too much, so that I couldn't follow the author's train of thought.

We always blame the problem externally and never doubt whether our learning style is effective. You will have questions, when you go to school, isn't that what the teacher taught, and you should circle the key points when you read, and it would be better if you could copy them in your notebook. In fact, studying after work is fundamentally different from studying at school.

The former learns to solve problems, and the latter learns to understand the world. In the next round, we will talk about how to learn at work.
