communicate with every book seriously.
Have you ever had this kind of confusion? You have read a lot of books, but you really remember very few.
Ask ourselves, maybe we just "read" the book with our eyes. If you just read it with your eyes, then no amount of reading will help.
Japanese writer Okuno Nobuyuki who came from the media industry believes that blindly reading is equivalent to never reading .
For books that have been read in a long life, human memory is limited. If you want to have a solid harvest after reading each book, you need to write reading notes skillfully and develop a long-term habit.
In his book "How to Read a Book Effectively" , he introduced in detail a very scientific and efficient reading method, namely the unified notebook reading method.
This super practical note-reading method aims to teach readers how to use a note to organize and record the essence of the book in the most efficient way. Because only by remembering well can you remember well.
Okuno Nobuyuki created the unified note-reading method, which covers five steps from book selection, book purchase, reading, recording to utilization.
01 Book selection: Let collecting information become a daily habit
Okuno Nobuyuki advocates Let reading be full of initiative from the beginning .
Usually we don't have this kind of awareness. Buying books is often affected by sales rankings and bestseller display counters.
Nobuyuki Okuno clearly pointed out that it is necessary to develop the habit of collecting information, obtain book information through advertisements, book reviews, and other people's recommendations, see the books you really want to read, and form a book purchase list.
These steps will make you realize "why you want to read this book", read it with reasons, and make you willing to spend more time reading on the ground.
02 Book purchase: Choose to purchase
according to the book list. The disadvantages of passive book purchase are obvious. Because there is no preliminary preparation, the book selection process starts from the bookstore, and there is often impulse consumption due to a whim, and the result is that the book bought will soon be bought Abandon them, pile up like a mountain.
buy books according to the list, and you have the initiative to choose books: clear purpose, buy on demand, avoid hot-headed impulse consumption, and effectively shorten the time to buy books.
03 Reading: Use notes to manage your reading life
We usually feel that the process is tedious and monotonous, and it is hard to finish reading a book, but it is difficult to refine the main points and repeat it.
Okuno Nobuyuki's notebook reading method requires readers to change the reading method with reading notes, thereby bringing about a change in the way of thinking.
When we read books on the premise of thinking output, the quality of thinking input will also improve. You will actively look for the "touching content" in the book, making reading a "process of refining important content."
In order to write reading notes more efficiently, we should write notes in advance while reading. To prepare, you can filter out the important contents of the book by reading through-rereading-marking.
04 Record: materialize the reading notes
After marking, you can start to make reading notes.
This is what we often overlook in the process of reading. Usually we put a paper book back on the shelf after reading it. If we use reading software, we may keep some important content marks and screenshots.
Nobuyuki Okuno believes that the contents of the book saved by on the phone cannot be integrated.Into your heart, it cannot become your invisible wealth. And a certain passage will be deeply imprinted in the mind and body with the feeling of the body when it is copied.
The "hot pot style" extraction method introduced in the book , that is, excerpts (what you think is important) and comments (what you think at the time) are alternated, which can not only deepen understanding and memory, but also stimulate thinking The spark of the original book makes the essence of the original book and the spark of your own thinking complement each other.
05 Use: Review reading notes and break away from the original book
The notes you make need to be reread repeatedly to highlight their value.
We can break away from the original book, read and review reading notes at any time, chew repeatedly, deeply absorb the content of the book, turn the essence of the book into our spiritual wealth, and then honed to better original content.
After the above five steps, we have completed the in-depth communication with each book and obtained an unforgettable reading experience.
At the end of the book, Nobuyuki Okuno also introduced 19 tips to make the reading experience more fulfilling and effective based on his own experience. The appendix of
also lists "26 practical tools for writing reading notes" for readers' reference.
If you are a person who loves to read but can't read, from now on, take your notebook with you at any time.
Make a note, keep in mind the essence of each book , maximize the efficiency of reading, and create a spiritual library for yourself.
