When I woke up, I felt that this man was a little familiar, much like a classmate in college, but I couldn't remember his name, so I couldn't sleep, so I dug up the names behind graduation photo and graduation photo, and I found the corresponding name behind this man-Chinese fir and maple love the world.
Only then did I understand that this man is his 22-year-old self, and now he complains every day that "I was negligent in four years of college, which made Lao Zi accomplish nothing" and also humiliates me in my dreams.
I closed my eyes and cried. If I can choose, I hope that at the age of 32, I can say "thank you for helping me through the whole four years of college" to me at the age of 22 ten years ago, so that my body and soul can get full exercise.
Today, I know that when this book is used, it means that our hatred has decreased. There are lessons from predecessors in the book, so we don't have to touch our heads.
If I go back to college, I will read a lot, at least 50 books a year, so I can get 200 books in four years, and I can persist for three to five years even if I don't study after graduation.
Combined with the pit I fell into at work over the years, I made myself a list of 10 must-read books.
First, Wang Xiaobo's "silent majority"
People should have an independent personality and an intellectual life, just as Wang Xiaobo said: "It is not enough for a person to have this life, he should also have a poetic world." What Wang Xiaobo lacks most is poetry, humorous poetry.
Second, Adler and Plocque's communication art.
The longer you work, the more you find a person who can communicate. His life is like hanging up. There is no boss who can't handle it, and there is no contract that can't be taken down.
Communication is learned. This art of communication has been selling well for 15 years, and it explains communication thoroughly from principle to method. This is a communication textbook that has stood the test of time.
Third, Mao Mu's The Moon and Sixpence.
There were sixpence everywhere, but he looked up and saw the moon. I was the biggest when I was young, not to mention sixpence. I never even looked up at the moon. I despise this sentence. I didn't know until after work that it was impossible to have sixpence everywhere. Every 1 penny is hard to come by. Life is so heavy that we can't lift our heads and look at the moon.
At this time, I found that holding my head high and holding my chest high is an ideal attitude towards life, which should be buried in my heart as soon as possible to counter the ups and downs after work.
Four. Helicopter flight mechanics
At that time, the salary of specialized courses was very low. After graduation, I decided to change careers. Now, with the rapid development of aviation industry in China, the helicopter industry has entered a golden age. Those who persisted in those years now earn 20W+. With infinite regret.
I recommend this book, not to let you learn helicopters, but to tell you that professional courses are very important. Knowing a major for ten or twenty years is a great expert.
V. Paul Wade's Prisoner Fitness
A book that teaches us how to keep up with the soul is about how to exercise scientifically by self-respect, with zero investment and zero risk. It is especially suitable for all poor students and poor workers to exercise well.
6. Walden Lake in Thoreau
A book about how to get along with loneliness.
Many people live a heartless life in college and have many friends who have nothing to say. At the moment of graduation, all this suddenly disappeared, and they often fell into endless loneliness, so they could only rely on alcohol and games to anesthetize themselves and waste their time. Thoreau tells us the correct way to treat loneliness, which is very nutritious.
Seven, Russell's happy marriage and sex life.
Nobel Prize Works in 1950. The originator of diagonal youth, the great philosopher Russell transformed the godfather of chicken soup.
This book analyzes the development and changes of sex, family and marriage from a very large time span, and teaches every modern person what to do in sex and marriage in order to reach the other side of happiness. It is better to be exposed to such books in college than to wake up after marriage or even divorce.
Eight, Sun Tzu's Art of War
A military book, not just a military book.
It was only after work that we discovered that our culture for 5,000 years could not be separated from strategy. Look at the necessary lines of various costume dramas, such as Zhen Xuan, Lin Shu and Mi Yue, which are popular in recent years. In a society that advocates strategy, Sun Tzu's art of war is the basis of understanding strategy. Only by distinguishing sophistry and using clever tactics can we advance by leaps and bounds.
Nine, peter drucker's "effective managers"
Soldiers who don't want to be marshals are not good students. If they understand management one day earlier and have the qualities of managers one day earlier, they will become the best among their peers one day earlier. A master of western management masters, a book, let you learn how to manage yourself, subordinates, bosses and life.
The editor of genius by X. Scott Berg
Pulitzer prize books. It tells the legendary life of a workaholic, a genius who is good at discovering genius, and an editor who has published such famous works as The Great Gatsby, The Sun Also Rises, Angels Watching Home, etc.
This book can help us learn how to fall in love with work and how to make our mediocre self realize the value of work with the help of genius. Not everyone of us has our own light, but we can make others' light more dazzling, which is not a wise attitude towards life.
In the circle of friends in their thirties, there are already friends who can never be updated. Only then did I find that life is impermanent, and this body is so worn out that all the wine I drank when I was 20 years old will be reflected in my 30-year-old body.
If I were 20 years old again, I would do this:
First, never stay up late, never.
Insist on going to bed early and getting up early, go to bed before 23 o'clock and get up before 6 o'clock. Even if I occasionally stay up late to recite, it will never exceed 2 o'clock, because my body needs to rest, and only when I have a rest can I fight better.
Second, develop 8 abdominal muscles.
Poor students, of course, can only use the method of "prisoner fitness", exercise at least three times a week for at least 40 minutes each time, do abdominal curl and leg lift, and build great abdominal muscles.
Third, insist on running+meditation.
Combine running with meditation, make full use of the very safe characteristics of the school playground, vent yourself completely during running, and let the soul secrete dopamine while the body secretes endorphins.
Fourth, moderate drinking, preferably only drunk 1 time within 4 years.
Some people say that getting drunk every time is like getting a serious illness. This experience is very obvious after the age of 30. In order to reduce the harm to your health, you must control drinking during college. After all, most of the troubles in college are about writing new poems, and most of them have to get drunk after work. Why spend your parents' money to get drunk in college? As for getting drunk, just drink it once in graduation season.
Life can't be repeated. What a painful experience it is to be despised by 22-year-olds at the age of 32. I only hope that 42-year-old I will not be despised by 32-year-old people, and I hope that 10 years later, you will say to yourself, "Thank you for giving me a perfect soul and body".
What a wonderful experience that will be.
