" Time is our coordinate. We cannot do anything without this coordination. Therefore, handling the relationship with time is the prerequisite for our life, growth, and change; choices often occur at the crossroads of life, and it makes us confused. , Helplessness and anxiety, and learning to choose means learning to recognize oneself and one’s place in the world; action is a symbol of vitality and the refuge for solving all problems, but what is puzzling is the pace of modern people’s actions Heavier and heavier, the sense of powerlessness continues to spread, so we need the courage and wisdom to act more; learning is a sign of being a person, and for many people, it is a lifelong practice. The laws and skills of learning are precisely A lesson that many people need to make up; thinking occurs at every moment in life, but thinking about thinking itself is scarce and precious. When we want to solve various problems in work and school, we will Discover its value; in this fiercely competitive society, a person's talent is the foundation of one's life, but how to obtain extraordinary talents is a difficult mystery for many people. To solve this mystery needs to be broken and spread widely. Success is a word that people love and hate. For the so-called success, countless people have become the person they originally hate. And I believe that only by insisting on being the self you like can you achieve true Meaningful success. "

Each of these items is not unfamiliar to us. We all have more or less our understanding and practice. These understandings constitute our three views and guide our behavior. Maybe we can’t find the optimal solution for a lifetime, but it’s worthy of joy to be able to make progress.

"So, how should one treat time? Learn the attitude of "solemn" from children. To this question, Mr. Liang Shuming, a university scholar in the Republic of China, once replied with two words: "Seriously." "Seriously is an attitude: not perfunctory, not hesitating, not swaying, focusing seriously on the current affairs, consciously and attentively. A solemn attitude is neither eager for quick success and quick gain nor passively avoiding the world. It is more like a child often Attitude."

The way children deal with things is going to hit a wall in adult society. The so-called "keep the heart of a child forever", I understand that what we learn is not a child-like approach, but a positive attitude towards life: full of curiosity, enthusiasm, and spirit of exploration.

"Renowned Stanford University psychologist Philip Zimbardo ( Philip Zimbardo ) proposed to" express people's past, present and future attitudes different time perspective "of the concept. He found that depending on the angle of view can be divided into five times People: The first is a positive past perspective. People with this perspective always look back with a positive attitude. They are nostalgic, often miss the good things in the past, cherish family and friendship, and cherish what they already have. Gratitude. But such people tend to ignore the happiness of the moment. The second is a negative past perspective. People with this perspective always look back in a negative attitude. They often recall negative experiences in life and immerse themselves in the past. Unable to extricate themselves from the injury, there is a greater risk of psychological problems. The third is the hedonistic perspective. People with this perspective always view the present with a hedonic mentality. They believe that timely enjoyment is the first priority, looking back to the past and looking to the future. It’s not necessary, just enjoy the moment. They have a higher sense of happiness, but they have a higher risk of developing addictive behaviors such as smoking, alcoholism, or overeating. The fourth is to look at the current people from a fatalistic point of view. , That is, they have a fatalistic perspective. They feel powerless about what is happening now and believe that everything is destined, and they can only obey and endure the arrangements of the outside world. The fifth type is people who are accustomed to looking forward and planning for the future. This perspective Known as the future perspective, they are forward-looking and pay more attention to the goals and tasks to be completed. To complete the future goals, they are willing to abandon the present enjoyment, use time more efficiently, and thus easier to achieve higher achievements. But Because I have been worried about the future, my happiness is not strong."

Each person’s natural endowment may largely determine which of these five categories we are. It is very difficult to change our course, but what we can do is probably learn to balance and solve these issues as cleverly as possible. Interrelationships.

" From the viewpoints of "balanced time view" and "extended sense of the present", Lindevo puts forward ten suggestions for treating time better. Here are these ten suggestions and my explanation of each suggestion: 1. Live in Now-do not look forward and backward, do not look left and right, do not worry about gains and losses; 2. Take time seriously-carefully and solemnly think about the value of time to us and use it well; 3. Pay attention to the space you have and enjoy it find your own " Exclusive moments", don’t get tired of running; 4. Reflect on the time perspectives of yourself and others—recognize the similarities and differences of time perspectives between yourself and others, and think in another place; 5. Start from the present to connect to the past—the past is not far away It still has meaning for today; 6. Not completely immersed in the past-the present is more important than the past; 7. Developing a plan to achieve the goal-the future perspective makes our actions more orderly; 8. Balance planned and unplanned Time——Due to the influence of randomness and unforeseen factors, our lives cannot be completely planned. Balancing planning and unplanning are to find a balance between the perspective of the future and the perspective of the present; 9. To see the future exist in the present—the future It is not out of reach, it appears every minute and every second that is coming; 10. Maintain a positive attitude towards the future since the future is unpredictable, facing it with a positive attitude can make us more active in the moment Motivation. "

The most terrifying state is that there is no cognition, and the second is that there is cognition but cannot be achieved in action. The best state is probably to achieve the unity of knowledge and action? Your thoughts can guide your behavior. This is probably freedom?

"Five years will usually pass the "next stage" of life and enter the "next stage." After all, the undergraduate course is only four years, and most office workers will complete at least one job-hopping within three or four years, or move from the bottom of the staff. It takes less than five years to get into a management position, from falling in love to getting married and having children... If you are a senior high school student, after five years, you may have completed your undergraduate studies and traveled to the United States to study; Sweet love. After five years, your child may have been playing on your back. "Five years" also means that you can master a skill that can be held by your body, or complete a systematic approach in an academic field. The reserves of knowledge... it means that you can think about whether it is possible to persist in doing a valuable thing, or even to the extreme."

If the current stage of life is A, we often look at the life stage B; The strategy here is to think about life stages C . If we take Phase C as the mid-term goal, then we know what choices we should make when we enter Phase B, and thus decide what specific things we should do in Phase A at the moment. Doesn't the country use 5 years as the length of the plan?

"From the perspective of the long-term future, people tend to think in abstract and general ways. For example, a freshman who has just entered a psychology major may set a long-term goal of "becoming a psychologist." But this goal is abstract to him. He doesn't even know how to define a "psychologist" or what kind of effort it takes to become a "psychologist." The reason why he set this goal may only be because This goal is "high enough" to meet his expectations of "realizing the value of life." Therefore, the thinking from the perspective of the long-term future often lacks details, and more consideration is the value and significance of this matter to oneself. And shortly From a perspective, people are more likely to think about specific situations, thinking more about not "whether or not to do it" but "how to do it." For example, this freshman is studying the subject of "General Psychology". During the course, I will remind myself to do a pre-class preview, class notes, and after-class exercises, and at the same time actively communicate with the teacher, and even find out the temper and preferences of the teacher. And these specific efforts may ultimately point to It means getting a good score, but looking at it from a long-term perspective, getting a high score is probably not the most important thing for him."

Focusing on the future, or based on the present, are all things that can be done. What we can do is to combine the two and seek the most comfortable balance for ourselves. There may be problems in favor of one or the other.

" From the perspective of "long-term future", we should "focus on tactics and neglect strategy" and reduce the emphasis on value and meaning. We should not worry about what to do if the goal is not completed, but should think more about the specific ways to achieve the goal. Focus on “how to do”, especially on actions that can be implemented immediately. On the other hand, from the perspective of “near future”, the cost of evasion should be increased, and some “extreme” can even be adopted. Measures, such as deleting all movies and games on the computer, cutting off the network cable, replacing the mobile phone with a non-smartphone, etc. Some people may say that you can download the movie if you delete it, you can connect it after the network cable is cut, and you can reconnect the phone if you change it. In other words, is this method useful? It is useful. Because although there may be repetitions, this repetition will make the original simple and usual alternative behavior more troublesome, and the convenience of avoiding is greatly reduced, which increases the transfer of the parties. And the possibility of doing experiments and reading papers. "

Based on my personal experience point of view, sometimes we do an event A, and more often than not because of events like A, often to escape an event B . By artificially setting yourself obstacles to doing event A and providing yourself with the convenience of doing event B, you may be able to do things more in line with your expectations.

"When analyzing whether a thing is worth doing and how much energy is spent on doing it, you can evaluate it from two perspectives: one is the amount of benefit that this event will bring to "me" at the moment. This benefit can be At the mental and emotional level, it can also be at the physical or material level. I call it "revenue value." The second is the rate at which this income decays over time. I call it the "return half-life". The impact will last longer."

Anything good for us, we do it, human beings, as living creatures, pay more attention to the immediate benefits is understandable, after all, in the future, no one can tell. The key is that our living environment is very different from our precarious ancestors. We need to use reason to control the outdated parts of our nature, to avoid our shortsightedness as much as possible.

"This law implies two meanings: 1. The value of the return is irrelevant. As long as it is not a short half-life thing, as long as the return can be accumulated, just do it. 2. Don't just stare at the "high" things. Some unimportant and non-urgent things can still be done as long as they have long-term benefits for you."

In addition to the two dimensions of "return value" and "half-life" used by the author, we can also use the dimensions of "important" and "urgent". The terms are different, and the cores are similar. Do we need to investigate whether what we are doing now will have a positive effect on us five years later? If it is still playing an active role in 5 years, it will be worth it. If five years later, the positive impact it brings has long since disappeared, then it is not worth doing.

1. 每做完一件工作，脑子里回想一下，做一个回顾总结，也就是“复盘”，久而久之，就能学到很多东西。牛人总是在前瞻性思维和总结性思维上都非常出色。他们既能提前设想未来事件中可能出现的方方面面的情形，又能从已经发生的行动中加以反思，因此他们总是比一般人想得更加深入和周全。在做完一件事后，我们应该怎么反思呢？我觉得至少可以从下面这几个方面来进行： 信息 在做这件事时我利用了哪些信息？其中哪些信息是最关键的？ 这些信息是从哪些渠道中得来的？哪些渠道被证明是很有价值的？ 我可能遗漏了哪些信息？这些信息可以怎么得到？ 预期 在做事之前，是否对事情的过程和结果形成了正确的预期？ 我为什么会形成这样的预期？是什么造成了预期和事实之间的偏差？ 我的预期是否促进或者阻碍了事情的进程？今后应该如何管理自己的预期？ 结果 怎样描述这件事的结果？怎样评价这件事的结果？ 在描述和评价这件事的结果时我用了哪些指标？这些指标是否需要改进？ 结果需要哪些改进？如何改进？ 进度 事件的进度合适吗，是太快了还是太慢了？是什么因素导致了这样的结果？ 当进度出现问题时使用了哪些手段进行干预？效果如何？为什么效果理想或者不理想？ 工具 在完成这件事情的过程中，我使用了哪些工具？ 哪些工具起到了重要的促进作用？哪些工具起到了阻碍作用？ 如何改进现有的工具使其发挥更好的功效？ 情绪 在做事的过程中我的情绪状态是什么样的？是否出现过情绪失控的情况？是什么引发的？ 我是否有意识地调整自己的情绪？在这期间使用了什么方法？是否需要改进？ 阻碍 在做事的过程中我遇到了哪些阻碍？其中最重大的阻碍是什么？ 我是如何应对这些阻碍的？取得了什么效果？ 这些阻碍中哪些会长期存在？我需要通过什么持续的努力来减少这些阻碍？ 优势 在做事的过程中，我发挥了什么样的优势？是否有什么优势还没有利用和发挥的？ 在做事的过程中，我的主要收获有哪些？我的哪些知识和能力得到了提升？ 我可以向做同类事情的其他人学习什么？他们有哪些优势是我不具备的？ 缺憾 在做事的过程中，我的遗憾有哪些？最大的遗憾是什么？是什么原因造成了这个遗憾？ 在做事的过程中，我暴露了哪些缺点？其中哪些缺点是必须且迫切需要改正的？ 关于这件事，别人对我有什么批评和评价？他们的批评有哪些可取之处？ 意义 这件事对我来说最大的意义是什么？对我的短期生活和长期生活分别有什么影响？ 这件事对周围人、对社会、对整个世界和对地球的意义分别是什么？ 我发现了哪些意想不到的意义？
2.“先做好准备再上场”观念的一个致命问题是：我们永远都无法做好“完全”的准备。总有我们还未顾及的问题，总有我们能力上的短板，总有我们未搜罗完全的信息，可因此我们就要一直准备下去吗？当然不是。只有你做出了实实在在的东西，你的思路才会更清晰，才能才得以切实地锻炼，视野才更加开阔。
3.一个重要的学习理念 ，就是：把知识当成一项技能来学习。 求知分为三个层级：信息、知识和技能。最差的学习者只接收信息，贪多求广；好一点的学习者看重知识，以记忆为目标；高手磨炼技能，只求日日精进。信息、知识和技能本不冲突，只不过技能是终点，前两者是迈向这个终点的路与桥
4.如何过滤没有价值的信息： 精选可信赖的信息源；不追逐当下流行或过热的信息；重事实信息，轻观点和评论；定期闭关，屏蔽外界纷扰
5.年轻人容易犯的毛病是热情有余，少了一些冷静踏实；急于求成，少了一些耐心细致。如果能早一些明白“不苟且”的重要性并躬身践行、一以贯之，那么人生之路可能就会好走很多，个人的才能也更容易培育和施展，用“二八开”的方式分配时间
6.建筑家保罗·谢菲尔德（Paul Shepheard）说：“主流是一种非常强大的潮流，人在其中无法思考。
7. 深入观察，不断迁移这是第一个精进，这样是不够的，还需要第二个精进那就是练习和改进。 如王 云五学习循环： 选英文佳作，翻译中文，间隔一周，翻译回英文，对比学习

部分章节，可以感受到作者花费的功夫和思考。尤其是心理学的参与。 有些章节，感觉略草了。 适合大学生，也适合职场比较困惑的人群。 道理不论怎样，都是差不多，就看自己是如何去执行了。

想要教导别人如何变得厉害，可能先得自己成为一个厉害的人。采铜先生可能自己很厉害，但似乎不太擅于，或者说不太敢于，用自己的声音说话。当观点成为清单式的对别人观点的罗列，你或许可以读出采铜先生的恐慌，和每个人的恐慌一模一样。称不上值得推荐的好书，但是值得点赞的知乎回答。

整体还行。有的方法论可能我已经掌握了，所以没有以往读《暗时间》时的拨云见日之感。
引证有点多，文中强调行文简洁，而自己却没做到。

作者从对待时间、做出抉择、行动、学习、思维训练等方便旁征博引论述了如何成就一个更优秀的自己。合理利用有限的时间，使用正确的学习方法高效地努力学习提高。对于哪些之前随波逐流而如今正在意识到自我提升重要性的读者来说，还是很好的一剂良药。对于学习方法及理论部分，抽丝剥茧,我还是比较认可的；但个人感觉全书行文多处啰嗦，底子好的人看每章末提炼即可。
