It is often said thatKnowledge is powerKnowledge can change fate, but only if they are transformed into abilities, it is possible to change fate.
I believe that many people have often heard these two sentences in their lives: "After reading so many books, I still can't live a good life", "I understand the truth, but I can't live a good life", these two sentences are similar.
Just like there is a bridge in the original English book of the movie "The Godfather", the godfather Corleone said:People who spend a second to see through the essence of things, and those who spend half their lives unable to see the essence of things, are destined to have completely different fates.
The philosopher Schopenhauer said: The largest prison in the world is the consciousness of everyone.
The lower the level of cognition, the easier it is to live in your own little world, not wanting to forge ahead, constantly falling into a vicious circle, constantly failing, and finally doubting fate.
A person's greatest poverty lies not in economic hardship, but in cognitive poverty.
To open up the gap between ordinary people and top masters, many times it is not the poor information, but the ability to dig out useful information, and the most fundamental is the gap in thinking and cognition.
The height of cognition determines a person's vision, and it is also a person's decision-making algorithm, which determines our growth rate and development height.
The greatest sorrow in life is the lack of deep thinking, just spending a lifetime of wisdom on tactics. When you look up, you find that the profession or industry you are in has declined, or the social and personal values are low, or the general direction of the strategy is wrong.
Reading and studying is largely about gaining knowledge, but most people just get information.
When a person's cognitive level is very low, the ideas in his mind tend to be monolithic and inflexible, so the decisions he makes are very narrow.
I'm sure many people have seen this story.
Two southerners went to the north to sell umbrellas. But after arriving in the north, they all found that there was little rain in the north, and few people needed umbrellas. As a result, both men are in a dilemma.
One of them saw that he had been selling on the street for a few days and had no one to take care of, so he went home.
The other, after some thought, decided to convert the umbrella into a sun umbrella. The next day, when I went to the street to shout, the northerners saw that the sun umbrella was novel and useful, so they snapped up it.
As the writer said:"Cognitive ability determines that doing the right thing is 100 times more important than doing it right. ”
We often hear the phrase "you can never make money beyond what you know", and it turns out to be true.
The lower a person's cognitive level, the more one-dimensional his thoughts will become, and it will be difficult to change and accept, and the person will behave stubbornly.
When you learn enough knowledge and encounter things, there will be connections between these knowledge, which will help you make the right judgment.
If you learn knowledge but do not know how to apply it, and only think of learning knowledge but do not think of applying knowledge, it is equivalent to not learning knowledge, and at best you are just a "two-legged bookcase" and a "book slave". If knowledge is used incorrectly, instead of power and wealth, knowledge becomes a cause of loss and disaster.
The writer Wu Mangang once said:"Those who do not know enough will be trapped in their own hearts, and they will see only some meaningless things as far as they can see, desperately seeking them, but they will not change their own destiny in the slightest. ”
For each of us, don't be a miner who collects knowledge, but polish the knowledge that has been collected into a brilliant jewel, which is the real study.
But in the end, I still can't help but remind everyone: the most rare thing in life is not that you see the real scenery after reading about cognitive impairment.
The rarest thing in life is that when you have a glimpse of the mountains, you can still keep that original heart.
Kindness is the same, innocence is still the same!
May you climb over a thousand mountains and return as a teenager.
