Listen to a book while doing simple work

I listened to Fan Deng’s lecture on extraordinary reading yesterday. I listened with great interest for eight hours. They were all professor-level experts, and they inspired me a lot. I posted invoices for a day and listened to books for a day. I did a great job and gained a lot of knowledge. The following is the most enlightening thing I heard.

The second moment was after I went to Nanjing to study. I have never been to Nanjing before, and I have played around since I came here, but I have never really experienced it. Until I read "Zeng Guofan" written by Mr. Tang Haoming. The book was very beautiful and had a strong storyline. It was a best-seller. After reading it, my biggest impression was that I suddenly felt that Nanjing was in my eyes. came alive.

The last chapter of this book talks about the fall of Tianjin, how Zeng Guoquan and Zeng Guofan fought from Yuhuatai and Taipingmen. The place names mentioned are all the places I usually walk when I go to school and work. place. I later ran through the paths mentioned in the book, and the distances were all correct. Some ruins are even still there, such as Long Neck, Tianbao City, and Dibao City. When I walked there again, the entire city of Nanjing became a place that seemed to have a blood connection with me. I later discovered that this was actually a very good shortcut for traveling.

Of course, you don’t have to read books. You can also watch movies. For example, before you go to Chongqing, you can watch "Crazy Stone", before you go to Leshan Giant Buddha, you can watch "The Mysterious Giant Buddha" and so on. You will feel very different after reading these things. I think it was at that moment that my mood towards the city and environment I lived in changed greatly.

As people grow older, the scope of influence of books on you shrinks. A book can change your entire life in one go when you are a teenager. In middle age, it may change your attitude towards life or your living environment. By now, it may have had a little impact on some aspects of my profession and myself. I think this is a bit sad, but it just proves what Teacher Zhu just said, lifelong learning and lifelong growth.

Li Xiaoyu: I don’t think this is sad. I think reading is actually a process of constant encounters between people and books. At the beginning, books are stronger and people are weaker, so it will affect you more. But as you slowly grow up and become stronger, in fact, you can take more control in the encounter, and you can also use your life experiences to complement the book.
