As a 30+ social animal, every day there is a daydream of getting promoted and raising salary to the pinnacle of life, but the daily state is to go to work to move bricks, get off work and watch dramas, can't wake up during the day and can't sleep at night, can't squeeze out time to learn and grow, and lose hair when anxiety is on fire, so what else can we do to achieve a counterattack in life with nothing to do?
Through the author's personal experience, the book "7 Steps to Life at the Age of 30" shows readers how people who have no resources, background, and even an advantage in appearance and learning can achieve a counterattack in life through their own efforts and a series of strategies.
The book introduces the "7-step method" to achieve counterattack:
1. Get rid of self-awareness. Excessive self-awareness can blind oneself, which can be achieved by looking at one's own problems from the perspective of a bystander, detaching oneself from an inflated sense of self, and reflecting on one's own behavior from time to time.
2. Shape identity. If you want to have an identity, act as if you already have it, and change your identity to achieve that goal by reading, changing circumstances, or joining groups working towards the same goal.
3. Be vigilant against genetic miscommand. Most people rely on genes and instinct when making decisions, and do not think rationally, and only by getting rid of prejudices can they continue to move forward when others rationalize and give up.
4. Constantly train the brain. People's intelligence can be improved through training, so that the brain can continue to compound in the process of reading, form its own knowledge system, and constantly absorb new knowledge.
5. Retrograde's toolbox. The toolbox contains the giver theory (one gives two), the probability game (only bet on probability), the titan prop (craftsman's spirit), metacognition, and execution.
6. Specific ways to gain financial freedom. The fundamental method is to make the other party comfortable and happy, create compound interest and after-sleep income, and pay attention to investment.
7. The runner of the retrograde. People who fight against fate will not be satisfied with the status quo, no matter how miserable it is now, face the status quo, only think about what should be done now, set specific goals and plans, and practice the 7-step method.
We always envy Xiaobai's cool drama of counterattack, but we never thought that we could also turn the tables against the wind. Perhaps there is only one "execution" between success and failure, and we always set limits for ourselves before we start, and there are no three words in life. May each of us grow full of energy and continue to harvest a better version of ourselves.
