Chapter 2 How to get the most out of this book

1. If you want to get the most out of this book, you must meet a crucial and indispensable basic condition, otherwise it will be useless to study it no matter how much you do.If you have this condition, you don't need to read this suggestion, and you can still receive wonderful results. What is this magical condition?It is a voracious desire to learn, an unwavering determination to learn the ability to get along with people. To do this, you should constantly remind yourself of how important these principles are to you.You can imagine: If you can skillfully apply these principles in your daily life, you will have a wider world and a richer financial income.You have to tell yourself over and over again: "If I can apply the principles taught in this book for a long time, I will enjoy peace of mind and happiness. My income may also increase greatly."

Two, I hope you can quickly browse through each chapter to get an overall concept, so that you may want to read it quickly.But if you're doing it to pass the time, don't read this book.If you really want to stop worrying and enjoy life, you should go back and read each chapter carefully.This is a time-saving and effective way. 3. When reading this book, you should always think about what you read, and reflect on how and when you should use each piece of advice.Reading this way is much more helpful than reading it all at once. 4. When reading, prepare a pen in your hand.When you read a suggestion that you think is useful to you, you can mark it with a pen.If you read a really good piece of advice, draw each sentence and mark it next to it.Marking lines on the book can not only increase the interest of reading, but also make it easier to review and review.

5. I know such a female manager who has worked in an insurance company for 15 years.Every month, she peruses all the insurance contracts issued by the company that month.Day after day, year after year, she reads the same contract in this way.Indeed.why?Because experience told her that only in this way can every clause in the contract be clear in her mind. I once spent two years writing a book on public speaking, and during that time I found myself having to look back at what I had written from time to time.It's astounding how quickly we forget. So if you really want to get lasting benefits from this book, it's not enough to read it casually.After reading the entire book, you should spend a few hours each month reviewing it.Please put this book on your desk every day, read it frequently, and remind yourself that overcoming worry is a skill that can be continuously honed and improved.

Remember, these principles will only evolve into your regular behavior through consistent, active review and application.Other than that, there is no other way. 6. George Bernard Shaw once said: "If you teach a man everything, he will never learn well." George Bernard Shaw was right.Learning is an active process that can only be learned by doing.So if you aspire to master the principles in this book, put them into action, and use them at every opportunity.Otherwise, you will soon leave the principles behind, and only the knowledge that can be used will be stored in your mind. Perhaps, you will find it difficult to implement these principles from time to time.I understand that although I wrote the book, I often find it difficult for me to use it.So, when you read this book, please keep in mind that you are not just acquiring information, you are also trying to develop new good habits, and you are exploring a new way of life.It takes time, perseverance, and daily application.

Therefore, please read this book often, and regard this book as a manual for solving problems in life.If you have trouble applying it, don't get discouraged, don't be impulsive, it's usually not the right approach.Instead, open the book, look at the passages you marked, try new methods, and see what wonders they can do! 7. See your process of practicing the principles in this book as a lively and dynamic game, and reward your partner, children, or colleagues with a coin every time they find you violating a certain principle. 8. In one of my classes, a famous Wall Street banker told everyone about the efficient methods he used to improve himself.The bank manager did not have much formal education, yet he became a well-known financier throughout the United States.He admits that this is all thanks to his method of improving himself. He said: "I have kept a diary for many years, and the diary records what I did that day. My family never arranges a Saturday night for me. activities, because they know that every Saturday night I have a job review and introspection. After dinner, I go to a corner by myself, open my journal, and look back at what happened during the week. I ask myself 'what went wrong at that time' ?What did I do right? How can I improve? What can I learn from that'.

"At that time, I always felt that this kind of retrospect made me very unhappy. But after a few years, such mistakes rarely reappeared. Now this way of introspection makes me feel very relieved. This kind of persistence year after year In the end, this method of self-analysis and self-education is more effective than any method I have ever used.” So why don't you use a similar method to examine your own process of implementing the principles in this book?If you can do this, you can get this effect: First, you will feel that you are in a precious and magical educational process; Second, you will find that your communication skills have improved rapidly.

9. I suggest you keep a diary often.You should keep a record of your own successful application of the principles in this book and the results you have achieved.Be as specific as possible, noting names, dates, and results.Keeping records like this will motivate you to work harder.Years from now, when you inadvertently look back, you will definitely find it a lot of fun! Ok, let's get to the point now!
