Sadly, his father's company went bankrupt and ran away in debt, leaving him with more than 4 million debts. His house was sold, and he and his mother and sister moved to a shabby little house.
Still facing the risk of being laid off by the company, the planning leader did not like it and transferred him to the sales department. If the sales are not good, he will have to be fired.
His girlfriend also resolutely left him.
He was very depressed. At this time, he met his old classmate Ming Xun, who advised him to study if he wanted to change his life.
He said, I am so depressed, how can I study?
Later, I suddenly decided to change myself and ask my old classmates how to study.
Ming Xun introduced him to a master reader, and asked him to read 33 books every day 100, and read whatever he wanted. As long as he was interested in reading, he was asked to form the habit of reading.
He did, and then entered the second stage, reading 100 professional books a year.
He is a marketer, so he found 100 sales books and insisted on reading them. As a result, his professional level has improved and he can take charge of himself. He also organized a study group in the company to give everyone training, lead everyone to study together, and naturally get a promotion and salary increase.
After reading 100 professional books, I entered the third stage and interviewed 10 CEO within 100 days.
It was difficult at first. Where can I find a CEO who can be interviewed by this little guy?
Later, he found a book, and the author was also the CEO. He sent a sincere email to the author, telling his feelings and problems in reading this book and asking for an interview.
With the first one, the following ones were much smoother, and 10 CEOs were successfully interviewed.
In this way, he learned the successful experience of others, studied and worked harder, achieved the position of director, and planned to start his own company and become CEO.
Do you feel excited after reading this story? After more than a year's study, a 24K pure diaosi has a successful career and married Bai. After the excitement, many people may have a question: is this true or false? Can reading really change your destiny?
Let's look at a famous example, Fan Deng, the founder of Fan Deng Book Club. He once talked about his experience. I used to work in CCTV and do programs with Cui Yongyuan. At that time, he was very young and energetic, and often tried to plan good program ideas, but most of them were rejected by Taiwan Province. He was very depressed and felt more and more that his work was going downhill. He doesn't know what to do.
At this time, he thought, what should I do in this low period? He thought of reading, and decided not to think so much and study with peace of mind. During that time, he read a lot of books. Miraculously, his work is getting better and better, and he feels that things are going well.
Later, Fan Deng decided to take reading as his career and lead more people to study together, so there was this reading platform that I liked very much-Fandeng Reading Club.
Fan Deng's view on the function of reading is that reading can make people thick.
Let's take a look at Peng Xiaoliu's experience in "Network Celebrity". Two years ago, Peng Xiaoliu was an ordinary IT worker. He worked in enterprises in third-tier cities, worked as a programmer, worked as a market, and later worked as a department manager.
He went to Beijing for a business trip two years ago, and the pace of work in Beijing is very fast. When Xiao Liu returned to his city, he found that he couldn't adapt to the local slow-paced life. He gets off work every day. After work, he has some leisure activities, such as eating, shopping and watching movies. He felt very empty.
I don't want to live this life, but there is no learning organization in the local area, so he takes online classes and participates in online learning communities, such as reading at ten o'clock, reading with everyone and watching the clock, setting himself a goal, reading a book every week, writing reading notes and posting them to. At the same time, he also used the weekend to go to a bigger city nearby to participate in offline learning activities, such as opening a book gang.
After a year of hard work, he has accumulated more than 50 reading notes online and shared his learning experience offline many times. At this time, he was discovered by the platform and invited to become a signing author. Later a publishing house found him and invited him to write a book. Some online sharing platforms also invited him to share, so his popularity became higher and higher, and more and more people knew him. From the beginning of free sharing to the later self-made online course, his income naturally increased.
After reading other experiences, let's talk about my own reading experience. I am an ordinary Internet technician and an architect. I didn't like reading very much before, but after I came into contact with reading a few years ago, I gradually liked reading. As Fan Deng said, I feel heavier and heavier. I have my own principles when I meet things, and I am more and more efficient at doing things, such as target management, time management and planning.
I have seen too much and have the idea of exporting. I am a technician. I opened my official WeChat account a year and a half ago and began to write technical experience and study summary. Without any promotion, I attracted nearly 10,000 friends, was discovered by the publishing house, and successfully published a book.
This is a little change after I read it. Although my fate has not changed much, I really believe that reading will make me better and better.
Introduce reading methods according to the contents of the book and your own experience.
(1) What to read
Choose what you are interested in, read a lot, and let yourself enter the frequency of reading. This is like launching a rocket. When it just took off, it had to be propelled by a lot of fuel. It will be easy when it flies out of the earth and enters its own orbit. Therefore, you must read a lot at the beginning and push yourself into the track of reading. After getting into the habit, reading is a natural thing, just like eating.
(2) When to read it
(3) How to read
Never understand reading as simple reading. The correct process of reading is:
Reading is the input part, and then it should be absorbed and internalized. This process is to take notes and recall the key contents by yourself. The output includes writing reading notes, drawing brain maps, telling others, discussing and practical application.
Reading is the first step, and the beginning is very important, so here are two very important reading methods: fast reading and topic reading.
1) change your mind
The most important thing is to change your mentality. When I used to pick up a book, I always wanted to look at the back from the front. I believe many people are like me. In this state of mind, we are equivalent to the slaves of books. The fast reading method tells us not to be slaves, but to be the king of books. Books serve us. Kim's time is so precious that we can't read everything. When we see a book, we must first see if it is worth reading, and then throw it away.
2) Refine the value point
Take a quick look at the non-content parts, that is, the cover, preface and table of contents, to understand what this book is about and whether it is valuable to you. If not, you don't have to read it. If so, you should list a few questions about the book in your mind, such as: What is the reason for his argument? How did he solve this problem? ..... is to go to school with problems.
3) Key point scanning
Highlights include: pictures, tables, bold words, the beginning and end of the exercise.
These places are usually what the author wants to focus on. A quick glance will tell you which places you are interested in, that is, find the key points and mark them down.
4) Read the main points carefully
After scanning, come back and take a closer look at the key parts marked by yourself.
After reading it, we can find the answer to the question in our mind before.
5) Tidy up immediately
After reading it, you should immediately sort out the key points in your mind, try to recall them, and write down all the points you understand, so that you can be impressed, otherwise you may forget them the next day.
If you study in this way, you can basically finish reading a book in an hour or two, and you can finish reading it in a few minutes after you are proficient.
It should be noted that fast reading is only applicable to books of business and tools. These books generally have clear arguments on how to solve a certain problem, so it is easy to grasp the key points and digest 80% of the key points in 20% of the time.
1) Understand the topic
When we decide to study a subject in depth, we must have some basic questions about it. For example, when we choose the theme of "financial management", we usually have some basic questions: we often hear people talk about financial management. What is financial management? What's the difference between investment and investment? What are the methods of financial management? What tools are there? How should I manage my money? ……
After listing your own problems, search this topic on the Internet to see what you will find when you mention this topic, what will be posted on it or what everyone is talking about in Zhihu. In this process, new problems will appear, for example, everyone mentioned various funds, which is so complicated. What is a fund? What kinds are included? What are their characteristics? Which one am I suitable for? ……
After such a lap, I came into contact with the main concepts of this topic, and I also listed many questions myself. At this time, I have a very clear pertinence.
2) List books
Go to JD.COM and Dangdang to search for books on this subject, see which ones sell well, content introduction, catalogue and comments, write down what you think is good, and then go to Douban to find books on this subject and books with high scores. In contrast, you can list a bunch of good books, and then choose some to buy back, maybe dozens.
3) scanning
Scan all the contents and key points of these books, and you will find that they have many similarities, because they all talk about the same theme. After reading all of them, combined with your own list of questions, you can basically extract your own outline, which parts of this topic are divided into, what concepts each part contains, and so on.
4) Read carefully
With your own subject outline, you will find the answers in various books and fill in your own outline. In the process of continuous filling, you will have a deeper understanding of this theme.
Finally, you will find that you can sort out a book.
5) share
Sort out what you have learned and share it with others, whether writing articles or telling stories. After sharing, you will find that you understand it more thoroughly.
This completes the theme reading.
This story tells us that ordinary people can significantly improve themselves as long as they are willing to study hard. First of all, they should change their understanding of reading, and then take action by combining the two good methods of fast reading and topic reading.
