Wonderful book review:
One:
I once read Li Shanglong's first book, You Just Work hard, when I was confused, and I benefited a lot at that time. Although I am calm now, I will still read related works out of my love for it. This book is the third book published by Li Shanglong and the last inspirational book he claims to publish. It contains 4/kloc-0 stories that the author personally experienced and heard, including many articles on WeChat official account, such as "Life after work determines a person's life" and "Loneliness is the best value-added period", etc., and was selected for People's Daily Night Reading.
I was deeply impressed by several viewpoints in the book:
One is about concentration. As described in the book: "Fragmented reading and intermittent information absorption, the biggest harm to the brain is to make a person's concentration ability worse and worse. Slowly, people can only look at things in a few minutes. Without reading long stories and thinking deeply, people will become more and more unable to concentrate. "
In today's information explosion, concentration has become a scarce product. The internet connects us together, but it also makes the world fragmented. In this environment, we need to make necessary choices and know how to filter. "When the information starts to explode, the most important thing is not to read it all and accept it all, but to ask yourself what you need, then find the information you need and see the suggestions that are useful to you. Information serves people, not controls them. People should also control their attention and not be bound by the focus and walk around aimlessly. "
The second one is about being alone. As the book says: "In fact, people live a nine-to-five life after graduation and find that they have no time to study during the day and have no strength to change at night. Gradually, they got used to a mediocre life. Many people are asked what they regret most about their four years in college, and their answer is that they didn't study hard. In fact, everyone does not regret that the university did not study hard for four years, but regretted not making good use of those lonely times. " People are lonely after all. Only those who learn to be alone can be kind to themselves and others, so loneliness is the best value-added period. As the saying goes: clubbing, tattooing and punching holes seem cool, but these things are not difficult at all, as long as you are willing. What is cooler should be things that are not easy to do, such as reading, making money, and exercising, which are boring in the eyes of ordinary people and difficult to adhere to.
The third is about continuous learning. "We should constantly update our status, keep pace with the times and tear down the walls in our hearts. More importantly, we should always be ready and make continuous progress so that we will not be eliminated by society. " Vision determines the realm, as the so-called high pitch is far away, not moved by the autumn wind. Only by constantly updating our knowledge system can we avoid falling into the trap of inertial thinking. "Only with progressive habits, unsatisfied hearts and feelings of exploring the unknown can we jump out of the preacher's well and see a bigger world." Of course, the most important thing is to take action, as written in Progress: "The best time to plant a tree is ten years ago, followed by now."
The fourth is about humility. Only those who are strong in heart, good at solitude and humble can be seen more and go further. In this world, on the contrary, it is those who have no achievements, who are particularly concerned about other people's comments and eyes, and are particularly self-righteous. They just hung around for a long time with half a bucket of water. "In this world, either walk with your head up or run with your head down. Don't look into other people's eyes when walking, and don't adjust your pace according to other people's preferences. If you go on like this, you will definitely turn right or forget the reason for your departure. Don't take yourself too seriously and walk proudly in the street. You know, there is light in humble people. This light may not be so bright at first, but once it is found, it will be a seven-color rainbow, a radiant light. And grandiose people, although they bring their own light, every ray of light can stab others' eyes and make people unable to open or get close. "
Finally, I want to encourage everyone with a favorite sentence in the book: "The more people experience, the less they like to express;" The more books you read, the more you understand your ignorance; The farther you go, the more you know your own smallness. A person who has been quiet for a long time, has read too much, gone far, and has a strong heart will naturally exist. "
Two:
It is difficult for people to face their true selves, so "chicken soup" has become a derogatory term full of irony.
However, do you really have to pretend to be self-deceiving all the time?
Ask yourself, do you really want to be better? You really don't want more?
Obviously, the answer is no.
Don't say "if", don't say "but", many people prevaricate themselves like this.
When some words arouse your inner desire again, please don't use a "chicken soup" to douse this power.
It will always be you who ruined you.
There is a spirit called dragon soul.
Once, "You just look hard" just hit my pain point, so I stopped pretending, performing, gritting my teeth, clenching my fists and telling myself loudly: I want to be a quality and diligent person and build a better self.
Then, I did not hesitate to embark on a dream-chasing journey that was unwilling to be mediocre.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
However, life will never take the initiative to open the way for you because of your enthusiasm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After waking up, I will feel more lonely and painful. In the face of various pressures, I have thought about compromise, giving up and being carefree again. However, I can't, I can't deceive myself like this.
Because I've had enough of the pain of suppressing my dreams! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
In the face of the pressure of "out", I will never bow my head. I will firmly write down two big words: excellent!
You can stand out from the crowd. I'm going to join hands with Brother Long again-"You are either excellent or out".
Drink your own chicken soup and let others talk!
After listening to so many other people's stories, tell me your own.
Once, evaluating professional titles was my greatest pursuit, just like all teachers in the country.
I force myself to pursue all kinds of "certificates", even though I think some of them are deviating from the essence of education.
In this way, the surging tide wrapped around me, running around,
It seems that a voice reminds me from time to time: this is your life.
Slowly, I believe it, and I will even amplify the sound, for fear that it will not affect my heart.
At that time, I would also use the word "chicken soup" to attack all kinds of inspirational articles.
I was very excited when someone debunked the myth of inspirational idols.
In this way, I spent almost all my bloody years.
If I don't have a hobby that I really can't change, I will definitely be "happy" like this.
This hobby, which has a long history and deep roots, is hard to get rid of, and that is-reading.
After reading a lot of books, I still have a hard time. I may be the best annotation of this sentence.
When reading a book, my heart always beats from time to time, like an animal in a cage.
However, due to my supervision in place, it's all right ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
If I hadn't read this book, I believe life would go on for a long time-"You just have to read hard".
I don't know whether life played a joke on me or I played a joke on life.
Three:
I spent the whole morning reading "You are either excellent or out" by Li Shanglong. This book was defined by the author as his "last inspirational book", but it was beyond my first impression. I thought it was another chicken soup article of "struggling" and "sprinkling blood", but I was moved by the author's words.
I was shocked to see someone satirizing Li Shanglong's behavior of dropping out of military school as a deserter in the post bar-Keyboard Man is everywhere! You haven't experienced Li, how can you guess his original intention of dropping out of school to join New Oriental? As Li Shanglong said in "Retreat, the Power of the Wild", "With the passage of time, what can be tested by truth is truth". For a person, one thing, whether it is praise or criticism, is not a rational and objective attitude. There are many things, and what we see in Qian Qian is often only one side of the story. For strange people or things, we either look at them from a distance, hold a skeptical and dialectical attitude, do not look at them, and do not abuse them; Either understand, cut in from multiple angles, analyze and experience. This is what I admire about Li Shanglong's viewpoint: the best way for a celebrity is to "stay close to his works and stay away from his private life".
This book consists of six parts, about friendship and love, all of which are composed of Li Shanglong's own personal experience or other people's stories. Reading without a sense of distance is very kind. It is also through this book that I learned about the author's personal experience, hardships and achievements along the way. Although inspirational, these hardships and achievements are not a big deal for anyone who wants to make a career, but just the talk capital used by the author to write articles. What is really useful to individuals is some tempering and experience left by these hardships or achievements, which is the wealth of a lifetime.
The article that touched me the most was the fourth article "Good friends are out of trouble". Over the years, there are not many good friends around, and most of them are casual acquaintances, so it is difficult to walk into each other's hearts. I really feel the same way after reading this article. On weekdays, good friends often overlap. Either you annoy me or I annoy you. China is a human society. I owe you one, and I will always remember to pay it back. It is in this mutual trouble that we have deepened our understanding of each other and our feelings will be profound and natural. Friends who are afraid to disturb each other and dare not disturb each other easily on weekdays naturally only stay in superficial communication. If you fear each other too much, don't blame others for being too cold to you. Remember: if you don't disturb each other, there will be no communication. Without communication, you will naturally lose your best feelings. It's not sad to think of friends who used to be good friends and became increasingly unfamiliar because they didn't study at each other's side, but became strangers because they didn't intersect after all. No matter how good the friendship is, it will eventually become a thing of the past for various reasons. Don't let yourself regret because of temporary laziness. If you bother others more, others will be embarrassed to bother you. Please believe that "trouble" is a commendatory term here.
In the process of reading, there will always be more or less feelings. If you can do as the author did, maybe you will become better than you are now. But on second thought, it's nothing. Dry this bowl of chicken soup first, then come out quickly, otherwise, it's time to go out!
Four:
Some people say that a good book is a cup of fragrant teas. I'm not sensitive to tea, but I like reading very much. Read a lot of books, but also very miscellaneous. I have always followed the principle of open book and read all kinds of books, such as "You are either excellent or out" inspirational books read the most.
Maybe it's a little strange for an old man like me to read some inspirational books. The main audience of inspirational books is young people. At this stage, people born after 1990 can barely be regarded as young people. People like me who came of age in the early 1980s have long existed like uncles. But I think, uncle can also have dreams. Even if my dream really can't come true, there is no reason to stop me from reading such an inspirational book. This kind of book is very exciting to read, which is why I like reading this kind of book best. This book "You are either excellent or out" is even more exciting. From the book, I can see a young man who is very motivated, loves learning, cherishes time and is sure to succeed. I admire such a young man. Even if he hasn't achieved anything yet, he will be a blockbuster and soar one day. We can like a book because of a person, and we will like a person because of a book. After reading the book "You are either excellent or out", I think this author is quite pleasing.
After living for more than thirty years, I stumbled. Some people say that you have seen ups and downs. I said, you can respect me, and I saw it, but I haven't felt anything yet. However, there is still some understanding of life. The author Shang Long is a young man, at least younger than me. The book "You are either outstanding or outstanding" mentions all kinds of people, and almost every reader can find himself. Even if you can't find exactly the same, you can find some examples that are the same as some of your own characteristics. Although what the author said may not be all right, his understanding is quite mainstream and enlightening. In the book "You are either excellent or out", the author talked a lot of useful truths. Anyway, I was inspired. Although I have no inspiring ambition, it is also a good thing to make good use of the rest of my life as much as possible.
"You are either excellent or out" has more than 300 pages and more than 200,000 words, which is quite thick to the touch. Durable words are so attractive that I spent the whole day and couldn't bear to put them down and read them all at once. In inspirational books, there are not many books that people can read at one go. So we readers should do it and cherish it.
