Chapter 4 Techniques for Breakthrough Learning (2)
We often encounter such a situation: those who originally wanted to study according to the planned plan were distracted by many unexpected things.I didn't mind the barking of the neighbor's puppy at first, but now it feels very harsh.The weird-looking clay doll on the table used to look so cute, but now it looks more and more unpleasant.The pen was out of water, and the book was placed crookedly; even the wind came to join in the fun, blowing the papers flying everywhere; not to mention the headache of the French exam tomorrow... It was getting more and more annoying the more I thought about it, and the more I read it, the more annoying it became.It is becoming more and more difficult to concentrate, and the mood is getting worse and worse.well!Do not underestimate these things.Even the smallest and most trivial things can seriously disturb you sometimes.I can't read the book, what should I do?There are two ways: one is to deal with the things that are on your mind (especially when you are in a bad mood), even if they are small, as soon as possible, so as not to cause greater emotional fluctuations.The other is to let it go.For example, the barking of the puppy at the door, the upcoming exam tomorrow, etc., instead of thinking about them, it is better to turn a deaf ear, turn a blind eye, or think about some other pleasant things.

We must always maintain a happy mood and not change our emotions casually.The good and bad identified at the beginning are not necessarily very objective.If you want to know whether an apple tastes good, you can't just rely on subjective impressions, but you should taste it patiently. Once you taste the taste, you will feel that it is delicious.

The same is true for reading, memorizing French words, you will find it boring, but stick to it, when you can try to translate the French in the textbook into English, or stammer and speak French with foreigners, you will love it. Interested.The expansion of learning mentioned here has two meanings.One is vertical, that is, in-depth study in the undergraduate course (or read more extracurricular readings), and the other is horizontal, that is, organically connect the knowledge of various subjects, such as using the acquired mathematical knowledge to solve physics and chemistry problems.

It will be an unparalleled pleasure to find or develop interest in learning, which will keep you in a happy mood all the time.This approach, like "sweet after bitterness", helps to increase interest in reading.Avoiding homework that you don't like and doing homework that you like, this is human nature and a common problem.But if things go on like this, it will seriously affect your study.In order to improve your interest in reading, you can put the books you don't like in front, and use the "self-reward" method to hint: only after reading these books and doing a self-quiz to prove that you have learned something, can you read yourself. Like to read books.This kind of learning method of eating sugar cane and getting better can effectively improve your interest in learning.

In the process of implementing this learning method, the most important thing is to control yourself skillfully.You may feel uncomfortable at the beginning, but you will find a strange change after a while.This method can be called "rewarded learning method".If you can make full use of this method, you will get double the results.

Many candidates tend to feel at a loss due to the pressure and the variety of subjects. Facing many subjects, they don't know which one to learn first, resulting in a waste of time.If the method of lottery can be adopted, whichever subject is drawn, the book of which subject will be read first, which can save a lot of unnecessary troubles.Once the goal is set, there will be a will to achieve it.In psychology, it is called "achievement motivation", and learning regenerates interest.

You often have the feeling that if you solve a problem smoothly, you will feel happy and your interest will naturally increase, otherwise, your interest will be dull.The knowledge learned before is more familiar, and of course it is easier to reinterpret than what is learned later.Therefore, re-reviewing can not only deepen and consolidate the impression, but also gain inspiration from it and open up a way of thinking for solving the problems encountered later; it can not only enhance confidence, but also increase interest in learning.This is the reason why we often arrange the review homework before the preview homework.

When you read to a certain level, you will feel tired and depressed, your progress will slow down, and the effect will become poor. No matter how hard you try, you will feel powerless and in a state of stagnation.This state is called "the plateau period of learning" or "the depression period of learning" in psychology, which everyone will encounter.At this stage, it is often easy to lose confidence and interest, and even have large emotional fluctuations.When encountering this situation, we don't have to make a fuss, but we can adopt a nonchalant attitude and continue to work hard in a normal manner.We must believe that no matter how high the mountain is, there will be times when it goes downhill, and when it reaches a certain level, there will be a turning point.

Many people feel unhappy about learning, even feel pressured, and can't experience the fun of learning at all.Some stress is caused by improper timing, such as class time is 7:30.It took 7 minutes from waking up to arriving at the destination, but I didn't get up until 15:10. The beginning of the day was full of tension.If you forget to bring things or textbooks, and delay the next trip or class, the whole day will be full of anxiety.This kind of pressure is caused by your own bad habits. Usually, as long as you prepare [-] minutes before the trip, you can spend your day's work calmly.After the author pointed out this point in many speeches, I got many responses saying that as long as you prepare your schedule a little in advance, you can not only make your thinking more thoughtful, but also reduce unnecessary lateness and delay. After a day, the effect of learning will be greatly increased .What's more, you won't feel stressed anymore, and you will be in a happy mood about studying.

In addition, some learning pressures come from psychological shocks, such as temporary setbacks, or thinking that one is doomed to fail due to lack of ability in certain aspects.Research by psychologist Saliman, who studies anxiety and stress, shows that increasing learners' self-confidence and optimism will reduce psychological stress.Nearly [-]% of the stressed students got out of the vortex of psychological stress after accepting the courses they planned.Generally speaking, reading more inspirational books or successful biographies of celebrities, and getting closer to friends or teachers who are optimistic and motivated will help to enhance the power of optimism and progress.

Stress often co-occurs with nervousness. The appearance of "tension" means that you have completed the physical and psychological preparations to deal with emergencies. Nervousness is not a bad thing in the sense that "nervousness" is the total momentum of a struggle that can make you explode with enormous weight.

In pressing situations (especially life and death), even a powerless person can burst out with incredible strength, which is the function of oppression.Some students often complain that they are overwhelmed by exams.In fact, more exams are not entirely a bad thing.With pressure, (or called a sense of oppression), strength can truly be exerted.Once this point is clarified, you will not be burdened with pressure, and your mood will naturally be relaxed and happy.

As mentioned earlier: in urgent situations, strength can truly be brought into play.This shows that the emergence of "tension" indicates that the action of the mind has begun.

You will definitely have this experience: when you encounter danger, your blood pressure rises, your breathing becomes short of breath, your muscles tense (for the timid, your whole body will tremble and your limbs will cramp), and your whole body will be in a state of tension.This shows that "tense" can cause the human body to contract.And physical changes will also do a good job of warning the psychological state.This is what psychology often refers to as "excitement".Under the action of "excitement", the whole body begins to "general mobilize", making preparations to deal with emergencies.Therefore, tension has become "a kind of physical and psychological preparation (that is, general mobilization) for struggling to complete major tasks."

"Don't be afraid of this kind of nervousness, and don't lose self-control because of fear of nervousness, and go to the opposite. The appearance of nervousness tells you that the action of the mind has begun. As long as you can treat it correctly, your strength will be truly exerted. Therefore, it Not exactly a bad thing and you should treat it right.

When you are restless, look left and right, scratch your head, shake your legs, rub your hands... These are all unconscious actions that people use to ease their emotions.

When you are overly nervous, especially when you are flustered when you encounter difficulties in the examination room, you should warn yourself: Everyone is equally flustered, and I am not the most cowardly.Use this feeling of "advantage" to give yourself a "boosting shot".In addition, do some simple actions, such as stretching, clenching your fists, shaking your head, stretching your arms and legs or taking a deep breath.As long as you can relax the tensed muscles, your emotions will be relieved naturally, your flustered mental state will be invisible and your mood will be happy.

Generally speaking, in the face of various exams, there are only two kinds of people who will not feel uneasy:
One is, a person who has good homework and is very confident;
The second is people who are very dull or broken.

Comparing their scores before and after the test, whether it is good or bad, the progress is not obvious.

Those who have made more obvious progress are often those who feel uneasy to a certain extent before the exam.This sense of unease is actually a sense of oppression.Encourage you to study hard, study hard, memorize carefully, and your grades will improve rapidly.High achievers feel uneasy when their position at the top of the list is threatened, and they work hard because of it.It can be seen from the above that uneasiness is the driving force for progress.We know that moderate restlessness can effectively stimulate brain activity and make the mind more flexible.Excessive restlessness cannot control people's emotions and hinder people's thinking.At this point, taking a deep breath can help you calm down.The specific method is as follows:
Use abdominal deep breathing method, slowly inhale to make the abdomen swell up, and then slowly exhale to make the abdomen return to its original state, so it goes round and round, repeated many times to help the intelligence and nerve activity, so that it gradually tends to normal.Moreover, because the burden on the heart is reduced, the whole body can quickly enter a state of sedation.This "breathing reduction and pranayama method" is especially effective for people who are tired of coping with exams, or who feel dizzy and restless because they have to finish reading a limited book within a limited time.

It is important to remember that you study most effectively when you are in a happy mood.Be good at turning stress and tension into motivation for learning.Learning is a very easy thing, and happiness is a gift brought to us by knowledge.

excellent study habits

The power of habit to dominate people is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.The beginning of cultivating study habits is like a spider's web, and it is not very dominant.However, after years of cultivation, the spider web will undergo tremendous changes and become a solid barbed wire web, firmly affecting you.For a person who is used to studying for 4 hours a day, when the time comes, the interest in reading will naturally come, and it will be strange not to read.

Similarly, when I first learned a language and had to carry a vocabulary book with me, I felt that it was a bit troublesome to have one more thing, but now I feel uncomfortable without it, as if something is missing.Young people, develop good study habits!Once you develop it, you will feel uncomfortable if you don’t want to learn it. Isn’t it great to let the habit actively promote learning?

Many study habits will affect the efficiency of our use of time, such as the habit of snacking can easily affect the quality of sleep.In the agricultural era, because of the strong demand for labor, people began to have the habit of eating regularly. They may have to eat three or five meals a day to have enough physical strength.After entering the industrial society, although the labor force is still needed, it is not as good as the demand in the agricultural era.You may not need three meals a day to have enough energy.But we still develop the habit of three meals a day.

In today's society, work is mainly based on brain power rather than physical power, but most people still maintain the habit of eating three meals a day, resulting in excessive nutrition, which is why there are so many slimming centers on the street.When we need no more physical strength than industrial society, but still maintain the same nutrition intake habits, the excess nutrition will often be converted into fat and cause obesity.Furthermore, reducing the burden of body weight and maintaining a better physical condition will also increase work efficiency.

To adapt to the characteristics of mental work in modern society, two meals are enough to get enough nutrition. If you save a period of time for meals, you can add about one and a half hours a day, which is about one-sixth of the working time. You can finish it in a week One more working day than others, this extra working day will be able to complete a lot of work.
