What books can I read to improve my knowledge?

Read the history books. Taking history as a mirror is the meaning of reading history books. A lot of things have happened in history, but it's likely to happen again.

The comeback is unknown, anything is possible. A person who has spent time in history will always see a longer term and think more deeply than a person who does not read history, because he knows that this is not the first time that these things have happened.

I like to read official history, I also like to read wild history, I like to read serious history books, and I also like to read lively history books. "The Fifteenth Year of Wanli" and "Those Things in the Ming Dynasty" were read by me together, one was serious, the other was lively, both were excellent, both benefited me a lot, and both improved my cognition from different degrees and different angles.

Read books about the future. The human imagination is limitless, especially when everyone sees the future differently. Maybe you don't have enough imagination, but you can be curious enough to read other people's imagination about the future, what they think about the future.

A lot of it may not be a reality, a lot of it is just a paradox, but we don't know it. All I know is that at this moment, before they have been proven to be true or not, they all have a purpose.

Read more books like this, and you will have a clearer idea of the future, a deeper analysis and planning, and a deeper understanding. When I read "A Brief History of Mankind" and "A Brief History of the Future", I was always amazed by the author's amazing way of thinking and thinking paths, and although there were opinions that I did not agree with, I still gained something from them and improved my own knowledge.

Improving your cognition is a very general topic, in fact, you can't do it, you just need to read more, learn more, think more, observe more, and your cognition may be improved invisibly.

Actually, I'm a person who doesn't like to read paper books very much, I used to read some **, but then I found that some literary works are also very good. Mainly look at the writing of literary works, the style of writing, if it meets your own taste, and the content is relatively rich, you can also improve your own cognition when you read it. When I went to college, I often heard the teacher mention that I didn't talk about it, I always thought that these were very lofty theories, and I had already retreated before I had come into contact with them, because I especially hated those pure theoretical things, some theories were very cumbersome and complicated, and my head hurt when I saw them.

Then one time, a few friends and I went to another friend's college to look for him, thinking that we hadn't seen him for a long time, and we would get together, but that friend said that he wanted to borrow a book from the library for something, and let us sit in the library and wait for him. I went into their library, thinking that the money was boring, so I just doubled it and saw if there were any books I was interested in nearby to read, and waited for him as I read. Later, I saw a book on the bookshelf called "Learn a Little Game Every Day", and I remembered that I often heard the teacher mention it, so I took a look at what it was.

When I first looked at the cover of that book, I thought it was not the same as I imagined, I thought that this type of book would look as serious as the work of "The Wealth of Nations"! Instantly, I felt a little more interested. When I opened the preface of the book, I was immediately attracted by the author's writing style, so I continued to read it.

After reading more than 20 pages, I found that I like the writing style of this book very much, because he uses common examples in ordinary life as examples, which is very easy to understand, and it will not make me doze off after reading it.

When I was younger, I could read about a dozen books a year, but after work, I read a lot less and could only read some work-related books. Now that I'm retired, I have time to read again, but the speed of reading books is much slower, I don't want to ask for quantity, I pay attention to taste, and I even spent a few years reading only one book - "Zhou Yi", and I still continue to read this book.

Reading is too important, it may not make you famous, it may not make you have a bright future, but it can make you speak reasonably, do things in a measured manner, speak with scale, and be wise in encountering things.

Reading can make people learn to think, the biggest difference between reading and not reading is the difference in thinking, the reason why a person is in a predicament is often due to lack of cognition; Read books with the insights of life, and live with the insights of reading, you will find that when facing some problems, you can think more comprehensively, so as to find better solutions to problems. Don't be at a loss and don't know where.

Reading can make people feel at ease, and in reading, you can meet different people, see different lives, and get different life perceptions; The biggest change that reading has for people is the change of mentality. Through reading some books, people will have a more accurate positioning of themselves, so as to let go of some unrealistic illusions and cherish the present moment more. Look at and deal with the problems of life, so that you will not be irritable, emotionally out of control, and do irrational things.

Base carrying. Reading books can eliminate people's troubles, and books are called "spiritual antidotes" because they can not only solve puzzles; It can solve worries and eliminate the troubles encountered in life. The most important thing for a person is not how much wealth he has, but whether he has profound knowledge and lofty thoughts. Life is not easy, if you want to become a wise man, be able to easily grasp your life, drive away the confusion encountered in the future, fight against mediocrity, and become a valuable person, reading is the easiest and most effective way.

These books all involve breaking through the conventional cognition and way of thinking, and provide good inspiration for broadening our thinking and horizons, understanding the essence behind the problem and the machine code family system. However, it should be noted that everyone's cognition and way of thinking are different, and we should not excessively pursue the so-called "breakthrough cognition", but should continue to improve our cognitive level in the process of continuous thinking, learning and practice.

Books that break through human cognition are a relatively abstract concept, because there are no books or scientific research that can truly break through or surpass the level of human cognition. However, there are many books about human cognition and ways of thinking that broaden our horizons and allow us to better understand the way humans perceive and think.

Here are some classic books on human cognition and ways of thinking:
