Reading self-help books is an art.As you read, pay attention, and try to think of the author as your friend, who wrote these words just for you. Recall Abraham Lincoln, when he read, he always connected the principles in the book with his own experience, and borrowed some of the principles in the book.This is a good method worth learning. When reading self-help books, you should also know what you are looking for.If you know what you want, you're more likely to find it.If you really want to apply the methods in an inspirational book to your own life, you will work hard for it.Mortimer J. Adler (Jewish, American philosopher) in urges readers to find a fixed mode of reading.Here is a more practical pattern:

The first step is to read and grasp the general idea of ​​the book.This is the first reading, and should be a quick read, skimming the main ideas in the book.However, important phrases and phrases should also be marked.Write notes in the margins of the book, such as writing down something that pops into your mind while reading.Of course, only write notes like this on your own book.And those notes and markers will make the book even more valuable to you. The second step is to read the specific focus.The purpose of the second reading is to condense the details that need to be mastered. You need to pay special attention to whether you really understand and master the new ideas put forward in the book.

The third step is to read for the future.The more important task of the third reading is to recall rather than to read.Recall things that have special meaning to you, and find ways to relate them to the problems you're currently facing.Try new ideas, try hard, ditch the ones that don't work, and incorporate what works into your own habits. The fourth step is to read again, refresh your memory, and rekindle your passion.A salesman once stood in front of the sales manager and said: "The original sales situation is like that. I am a little lacking in courage." We may all lack courage. At this time, we should read our best Books that rekindle the fire that keeps us going.

1. Possess an insatiable desire to learn and a firm determination to learn the ability to get along with others.This is a crucial and indispensable basic condition. To achieve this, you should constantly remind yourself of the importance of these principles.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."

Second, I hope you can quickly browse through each chapter and get an overall concept, which can motivate you to read.But if you're doing it to pass the time, don't read this book.If you have the idea of ​​improving the quality of your life, then 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, reflect on what you should do, and when you should use each piece of advice.Reading in this way is more rewarding than reading it all at once. 4. When reading, prepare a pen in your hand.When you read a suggestion that 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. It’s shocking how quickly we forget.If you really want to get lasting benefits from this book, it takes more than just a casual read.After reading the entire book, you should spend a few hours each month reviewing it.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.Otherwise, you will soon leave the principles behind, and only the knowledge that can be used will be stored in your mind.

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. Treat 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. Adhere to weekly self-analysis and self-education, check the mistakes you have made, the achievements you have made, and the lessons you have learned in the process of learning and application, so as to check your progress.If you can persevere, you can receive 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 write down your own successful application of the principles in this book and the results you have achieved. Be as specific as possible, with names, dates, and results.Keeping records like this will motivate you to work harder.Years later, when you inadvertently look back on the past, you must have fun!
