That day, a ** said: "If a person wants to increase his rationality, he must often do three things: one is to make some friends, the second is to read some books covered by clouds and fog, and the third is to take some inexplicable classes." ”
It means: "A person can't just make friends with people who have similar experiences to himself, which will produce extreme resonance and limit his vision, and a person who takes the initiative to make friends with some powerful characters outside his cognitive field will help him to transcend arrogance and transcend radical resonance."
In the same way, people should read all kinds of classic books to understand the diversity of the world. Books that we can't read can make us think. All kinds of classic books are the author's long-term thinking in a certain field, and after many years of conclusion, there will definitely be content worthy of our grasp. Once we truly understand the contents of the book, we are essentially learning the wisdom of our predecessors.
As for inexplicable classes, it's the same, a person who stays in his comfort zone for a long time is prone to slack off and is more conceited. As a novice, learning new knowledge and skills in a new field will allow us to regain our humility and enthusiasm for learning.
Many of the courses are not related to my major or work, but as long as they are famous courses, I like to listen to them. Zhuangzi said: "Technique is close to Tao. "The ultimate achievement of any skill or type of knowledge is a process of shortcut. Sometimes just listening to them is a happy thing.
* seems to be my kind of person. I am full of curiosity about new things, I am willing to try unfamiliar areas, I meet interesting people on the way forward and stop to chat, and those new people, things, and things in life often make me feel that every day is fresh and interesting.
And the biggest takeaway from all this is that I know that the answers to many questions are not unique, my own ideas are not necessarily comprehensive, and the so-called right and wrong may have different results at different ages and different cognitive levels.
I consider myself a long-term person, who will not betray the person I recognize, and trust unconditionally; I don't want results for what I like, and I will continue to do it. But I'm also a person who likes to be new, moving forward in life and embracing the surprises that life brings me.
Although the field of work has revolved around hospitals over the years, the work environment and content have changed every few years. All the new tasks allowed me to get to know different cultures and gain new skills. Every time I go to a new field, I have to become a novice in the workplace again, learn with an open mind, and start anew. Once again, I experienced the bitterness of newcomers in the workplace, but there was also the excitement of rebirth that others could not experience.
Life doesn't start over, and even if there is me, I'm not a person who likes to turn back. There is still a long way to go for the rest of your life, and what remains in the future is the most precious. Whoever we meet and what we get in this life will help us better understand life. May those who like the new and never get tired of the old come out of half their lives and return as teenagers! Every day is full of joy!
