cognitive awakening
preface
Unlock the driving force for self-change
Our ignorance about ourselves makes us look like a "wakeful sleeper"
Take the initiative to create achievements rather than passively accept the status quo
The fundamental difference between people is the difference in cognitive ability. Cognition affects choice, and choice changes destiny, so the essence of growth is to make the brain's cognition clearer.
Chapter One
The brain: the origin of all problems
Brain: Rediscover yourself
The three human brains: instinctive brain, emotional brain (action), rational brain (computation)
Instinct brain, emotional brain: short-sighted, immediate gratification nature---take refuge in the easy, eager for success
Although we sit in suits and ties and work in reinforced concrete buildings today, in essence we are still the "primitive people" who are always ready to fight, escape or enjoy themselves in order to survive.
Humans are self-explanatory animals: most of the time we think we are thinking, but we are actually rationalizing our actions and desires.
Changing habits: You cannot rely on self-control, but on knowledge (generating new cognitions and making new choices)
Security: ability, wealth, power, influence
Anxiety: The Roots of Anxiety
Want to do many things at the same time, but also want to see results immediately (the GAP between desire and ability is too large)
HOW TO SOLVE
improving capability
keep patient
Introduction: Jin Yong's martial arts novels capture the human nature of instant gratification. The pleasure of gaining superpowers without making great efforts is refreshing.
Macro: The universal law of ability growth
Comfort Zone - Stretching Zone - Difficulty Zone === It is best to stand on the edge of the comfort zone Compound Interest Curve
Micro: Change > Act > Think > Learn
A. More is less, less is more
If we stay on the surface, we will fall into a whirlpool of desire. We want to learn everything, want everything, and are busy but achieve little results. If we can go deep into the bottom and focus on actual changes, we can escape from the vicious circle of blind anxiety and impetuousness.
B. Plateau period of learning
Lifelong learning: Patience is not the result of perseverance, but the result of long-term vision
HOW TO DEVELOP
Face your nature, let go of your psychological baggage, and accept yourself calmly
You see, the primitive man in me has come out again. It is really not easy for him to leave the jungle and live in the city. You have to understand him.
In the face of temptation, learn to delay gratification and become confrontational communication
There will be no less enjoyment at all, but not now, but after completing important things - post-entertainment
In the face of difficulties, take the initiative to change perspectives and give meaning to actions
Explore principles, proactively change cognitive perspectives, and find the meaning and benefits of actions (satisfaction after hard work > low-level satisfaction brought by entertainment)
Ask your instinctive and emotional brains to come out and solve the problem (they don’t care whether you are playing with your phone or solving equations, they only care about whether you are comfortable or not)
Patience: He who has patience wins the world
