Reading and sharing in November
The total reading time in November is 62 hours and 5 minutes, of which about 8 hours are listening to books and 2 physical books are read, so the actual reading time is about 60 hours.
The state is still stable, and I can maintain 2 hours of reading time every day.
There is no deliberate reading plan, just push one by one, the reading app will recommend some according to your reading records, share some with book friends, have some extended reading in the book, or be stimulated to figure out something and take the initiative to search for related books.
Read this month:1, "Becoming Yongzheng".
Becoming Yongzheng can be ranked in the top 10 of the annual good books list in my reading list this year. At the beginning of the month, I wrote a special article to recommend this book: Reading "Becoming Yongzheng" - Reacquainting with the Fourth Elder Brother Yinzhen.
For this reason, I also found Zheng Xiaoyou, who studied Qing history, to write "Yongzheng: The Only Howl of Heaven and Earth", "Nine Kings Seize the Inheritance", "The Death of Nian Qianyao", and "The Case and Punishment of the Qing Dynasty", and I plan to read them quickly.
2, "The Death of Nian Qianyao".
I am a person who likes to chase dramas, and a good part of my free time in my life is spent chasing dramas, and most of the so-called "historical knowledge" is not learned from textbooks, but from dramas.
Therefore, for Nian Qianyao's cognition, he still stays in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "Yongzheng Dynasty", and has always thought that Nian is a rude and arrogant general, but he doesn't know that he is from a standard Hanlin background.
Nian Qianyao is very good, and he is young and promising. At the age of twenty-one, he entered the ranks, and at the age of thirty, he was promoted all the way to the Zhengsanpin Cabinet Bachelor, a proper civil official, and at the age of forty-one, he was appointed as the governor of Sichuan, and the next year he was promoted to the governor of Sichuan and Shaanxi.
Reading this book, it really fulfills that sentence: I saw him rise up a tall building, I saw him feast guests, and I saw his building collapse.
However, the author has not written much about Nian Qianyao's psychological process, perhaps because there are not many historical materials, but there are more pages on how Yongzheng turned the year. For history novices, it is still worth reading, after all, the content is based on historical materials and documents.
3, "Too Platinum Star is a little annoying".
Read Ma Boyong's first book, and enter the play in one second.
Turning a mythical story like Journey to the West into a workplace**, it is really a heavenly workplace, and there are all kinds of social situations, I admire Mr. Ma's brain.
Every word is written as a myth in the sky, but every word is our own story.
It took a lot of time to read the picture in my head, and it was a must-see for workers in the workplace, and at least twice in the system.
At the end of the year, I am going to collect Mr. Ma's "Lychee in Chang'an", "Da Ming under the Microscope" and "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", which should be excellent to read during the Chinese New Year.
4. "Boundaries: Just Right Relationship Wisdom".
A book that can help us figure out what boundaries are and how to establish spatial, economic, and psychological boundaries with parents, intimacy, and children.
Don't take care of other people's affairs, even if that person is your closest relative, distinguish between your own problems and other people's problems, and don't interfere too much with others.
Allow others to have emotions, and allow others to take responsibility for their own emotions, even if it takes some twists and turns.
Only those who are truly themselves are happy and energetic. All the pretense you make when you are afraid of being turned away from others will become a burden to you. You have to allow yourself to be imperfect, accept your true self, and know yourself correctly in order to make a difference.
We all have an energy body, but when the energy is exhausted, allow yourself to slow down and have time to repair yourself, after all, you and I are mortal.
5, "Never Expected".
The change in the way of thinking, many perspectives and interpretations remind us that it is time to re-examine our perceptions and lives.
Several touches: 1. In the past, we were always Xi to the pursuit of certainty and eager to grasp the laws of everything. The book reminds us that the world itself is uncertain, and we need to learn to accept the uncertainty of things, use the scientific method and rational thinking, and not rely solely on intuition or traditional ideas.
2. We often think that the value of things is directly proportional to the time, money, and energy they invest. In practice, marginal effects are not always incremental, and sometimes even decreasing. This means that when we put in the effort, we need to find the best point of input and avoid ineffective efforts.
Some worldviews and formulas**, worth reading.
6, "Two Meals a Day".
The core point is related to insulin resistance. There are three main contents, one is to stay away from industrialized carbohydrate food, such as finely processed rice, flour, grain and oil;The second is intermittent fasting;Three recommended some recipes.
Many of the ideas in the book are contrary to our universal views, such as we advocate eating three meals a day on time, eating breakfast, and skipping breakfast is easy to get stomach problems and even stomach cancer.
The author suggests that you eat when you are hungry, preferably two meals a day or one and a half meals, a bit of 8+16 points, but in a different way.
The first half is also worth watching, and the later recipes are less practical (applicable). The language expression and logic are a little less meaningful, and the readability is not very strong.
7-8. "Single Consultation" and "The Power of One".
Two professional books, still gnawing at a turtle speed, and I'll share them when I'm almost done. To be honest, the traditional Chinese version that is bent out is really hard to read.
Okay, that's all for today, we'll see you tomorrow.
