Questions and Answers About University Confusion

For prospective freshmen, this book awakens me from being like a headless fly during the summer vacation. It is sad to follow the trend and find your own rhythm. Whenever my parents ask me what my goals are for going to college, whether to take the public postgraduate entrance examination like others or what I want to do, I always avoid it and numbly scroll through my phone. During my four-month internship, the older generation always asked whether it was harder to work or to study. In fact, for today's young people, it is all hard work, but the way of hard work is different. Studying gives us more choices, instead of trying to reach the top of our academic qualifications and not finding what we really want to pursue. It can be said that due to the influence of exam-oriented education from elementary school to high school, what we learned was too one-sided. The path we longed for was too deeply obliterated, and we couldn't find ourselves when we got to university. I still want to thank the author for his guidance. The guidance from the depths of my heart made me realize what I have to face next, what I have to struggle for, what I have to improve, what I have to change, and find my own direction in life.

I am a junior student, one year away from graduation. After reading this book, it really gave me a lot of inspiration. I discovered many problems of my own, such as: I am indeed easily affected by other people's thoughts and opinions. I have always said that taking the postgraduate entrance examination is just because I am avoiding entering the society. Yes, I don't know how to live, because my family asked me to take the postgraduate entrance examination, so I used this reason to confuse myself and told myself to take the postgraduate entrance examination, but I knew I couldn't pass the postgraduate entrance examination, so I told myself to pretend to take the postgraduate entrance examination to deal with my family. I just want to work, and now I think about how naive my thoughts were. While I was deceiving myself and my parents, I was wasting my life wantonly. If I didn't pass the exam, I wasted the last year. Even if I passed the exam, my personality and my thinking are not suitable for academic research, and I would I wasted three years of my youth on this, and in the end I still accomplished nothing and was useless. You might say that maybe in my third year of graduate school, I figured it out and thought of my goal. Then I would say that since I figured it out, should I continue to finish graduate school? The answer is uncertain. I have not yet completely figured out what my goal is and what I want to do in the future, but I have a prototype in my mind. I want to be an entrepreneur. What I need to improve now is business thinking, vision, leadership, communication, critical thinking, execution and other soft skills, instead of wasting four and three years. Thank you for this book and the author of this book.

The writing is very good, and it has great reference significance not only for college students, but also for people in society. It comprehensively and systematically addresses various aspects of personality, life, cognition, thinking, learning, etc. Completely consistent with reality. It points out the direction of travel, has profound meaning, and is worth reading again and again.

When studying in college, you must not only pay attention to hard power, but also pay attention to soft power. In particular, according to your career goals or interests and talents, you should cultivate an ability in depth and build it into a professional core competitiveness. In addition to improving professional skills, studying in college should also have goals such as improving thinking ability, vision and innovation consciousness, improving self-learning ability, communication and expression skills, improving personality and psychology, and cultivating an attitude of loving life. It is a book worth reading. Not only in college, parents can reflect on their own educational concepts. Their children, college students, or confused young people can see themselves in the book and think, adjust, and change in a timely manner. People must first change their thoughts, and then they can hope to change their actions.

The lecture is very systematic and practical. Going to college is not about studying, finding a job is not about studying, and supporting a family and surviving is not about studying, but multi-dimensional ability improvement and training. Grading in school is not everything in life. Issues must be viewed from a higher perspective. Although a certain part is outdated, it is only a very small part that people with discernment can definitely see at a glance.

It is natural to connect this book with "Excellent Sheep". Although the latter was a book written more than ten years ago, it still fits the current situation of many college students (including myself): blind following, homogeneity, and reliance on external evaluation systems. Isn't this a sign of lack of soft power? Lack of thinking ability and self-awareness, so they are like sheep: obedient, conforming, and converging. I am very grateful to the author for writing this book. Maybe I won't be able to make much change in a short period of time. After all, abilities need to be accumulated and exercised, but at least it opened a window for me, allowing me to discover many of my problems and point out the direction of my efforts. Worth reading for all college students!

It is a very good book. As a college teacher, I would like to recommend it to students. It also helps my teaching

The teacher's words are quite good, really easy to understand, and there are specific examples, so you don't have to worry about not understanding. After reading so much, I understand the importance of a person's character better, and the most important point is that self-confidence is really important. Now I have almost lost the passion and interest in life. Under so many blows in life, but, yes, we cannot be decadent! I will explore my strengths and regain my former confidence and happiness. Thank you teacher for your guidance.

Today is Thursday, June 5, 2025. I am currently a freshman in a private second-level university. I play games every day during my freshman year. The craziest thing is that the average daily mobile screen usage time in a week is 14 hours and 37 minutes. It's almost here now. At the end of the semester, I saw this book. The examples described in the book were exactly the same as mine and the classmates around me. What struck me the most was the abnormal phenomenon in college. The latecomers get the upper hand. The students who came first sit in the last row. The first row is always full of people. I am very grateful that I came across this book when I was an empty-headed freshman.

After reading this book, I still can't calm down. Many places actually describe my current situation. Now I am also a graduate who is about to enter the society. I am also confused about finding a job. After reading this book, my biggest feeling is that in today's society's employment environment, it is more about finding a career that you like, and then completing the skills and capabilities required for the position according to the needs of the position. This is my biggest feeling. It is worth reading if you are confused.

I am a freshman and I hope more college students can read this book.

This book talks about many issues about college students, such as poverty, doing things, and communicating. In fact, I think it is more like a book that the author calls sharp criticism. From childhood to adulthood, these questions are all asking: What should I do? What should I do? In fact, this problem is not a problem only for college students, but a problem that we consider when we have the consciousness to think. The society is unpredictable, and we are faced with the problem of "What should I do?" All the time. But to be honest, with how developed the Internet is now, if you don't know what to do, just do it and take action instead of waiting for others to give you the answer. In fact, the whole book only emphasizes one point of view: soft power and hard power. Problems are not problems, problems are solutions. If you don't know how to start, it means that your soft power, including your ability, is not good enough. You will just run around in circles instead of taking the initiative to break the situation. Growth is not something you wait for, but comes when you jump out of your comfort zone, collide with more people, and seize more opportunities. And some people even don't know that they are self-sufficient in their own circle. Busy, confused, blind. Essentially poor. However, you will never make money beyond your knowledge. This is the realm. So, you ask yourself again: What should you do?

This book is like a kind big brother sharing his experience and wisdom with you. The case studies in the book explain things in a simple way, and the suggestions given are also very practical. It made me understand that when I am confused, I need to recognize myself, find the direction, and work hard to improve my soft and hard skills. This is not only a guide book, but also a baptism of the soul, worth reading!

The biggest impression this book gives me is that it always emphasizes the importance of personal soft power. It is not so much a question and answer on confusion as it is a question and answer on soft power. The beginning of the book says whether we should take the postgraduate entrance examination and whether we should learn English should be decided based on our own circumstances and our own majors, rather than following the crowd and following most people (I feel this deeply, as I just entered the school in my freshman year The school counselor told us to take the postgraduate entrance examination. We were brainwashed at that time, so we took professional courses in the library every day, did not socialize or join clubs. Later, people around me said that I would change my major, so I thought about it and followed suit. Now that I think about it, this is a model of following the crowd. I have no ability to think, which leads to a lot of wasting time and choosing many wrong paths.) This is related to my own soft power: critical thinking. There is a saying in the book: Action is a necessity, thinking is a luxury. What impressed me the most is that this sentence describes the current situation of most people. Nowadays, many people lack the ability to act. They are thinking about the consequences of failure before they finish things, which leads to a delay in taking action, and even fewer people have critical thinking. Nowadays, the Internet is developed, and marketing accounts can set the rhythm casually. People online do not think about it, and they just go to bully others online. These words made me realize the importance of improving soft power. Summary: After reading this book, I feel that the postgraduate entrance examination and grade point examination are not suitable for me. I should socialize more, try more and make more mistakes during college, know what I like, and improve my soft skills (personality, communication, emotional intelligence, learning ability, etc.), Especially my communication and expression skills. I feel that my ability in this area is very lacking. As soon as I go on stage to speak, I get nervous and my mind goes blank.

The book introduces the skills that college students should develop. When college students understand themselves, cultivate themselves, and choose the path that suits them, we need to develop the ability to think independently. For example, the ideas in the book may not be applicable to you. You need to look at problems from different perspectives. My high school teacher likes to talk about the short board theory and requires our students who are partial to subjects to make up for their own shortcomings. This is right in the exam. In modern society, the division of labor is becoming more and more detailed, and society often wants to be outstanding in a certain aspect. At this time, it is obvious that the long board theory. But you cannot say that you are arbitrary about who is right and who is wrong. You have different judgments at different times.

This is the first time I have systematically understood soft power. I had only briefly thought about this concept before, but it was only after reading this book that I realized soft power and became more aware of the future direction. First of all, I am very grateful to the author, and secondly, I am even more grateful to myself who read this book at the time.

It's a really good book📚, with comprehensive case analysis and solutions. If you are also a confused college student, if you feel like you are just passing by every day, anxious about the future, and have no plan, then read this book. (I sincerely recommend all fellow college students to read this book together. It's really worth it!) Quote from the original text: First of all, this is not an inspirational book. It should be regarded as a book about soft power thoughts, or at least a Q&A book on life methodology.

I think this book can wake up some people. It is very worth reading. Reading is a mirror. You can reflect on yourself and understand your current situation more clearly. It can be summarized and summarized again. It is worth reading several times!

Lots of insights. If we don't get in touch with people outside our comfort zone, we are just frogs in the well. The whole book emphasizes soft power. This is something that I have realized before but have not understood or summarized. You can correspond to some opinions based on your own life reality, and you will see your own enlightenment.

It's suitable for me who is dumbfounded and doesn't know how to think. Before reading this book, I always thought that I was stupid, that my IQ was inherited, and that I would be scolded by others for everything I learned. Only now did I understand that it was because I didn't have strong soft skills and focused too much on memorizing knowledge without understanding or thinking. Over time, my thinking ability declined. Thanks to the author Brain for providing this book, there are fewer confusing roads. I will ask more questions and ask myself every day.

It's a very good book. It helped me understand some basic problems among college students to a certain extent. But at the same time, I also lamented that if I had woken up a year earlier, if I had had the current thinking a year ago, I might have been able to get into college. However, the bad situation this year made me lament that if I had not dropped out, my family's income would have been cut off. Fortunately, I dropped out and have been saving money in a planned job. Some time ago, my family asked me for money, and I was able to pay it. Damn, it's really life

This book is worth reading and it is very helpful to me. When I am inexplicably nervous, I will not hesitate to click on this book. No matter which chapter it is, I can reflect on myself and learn new perspectives. Soft power is very important. When improving yourself, you should improve your soft power more.

There are really big differences in ideas between people due to various reasons. You have to take yourself as the main subject, and whether it is good or bad depends on whether it is conducive to my development. And knowing yourself is extremely important.

After reading this book, I feel that my horizons have broadened a lot, and it has also alleviated my internal friction and anxiety. It has given me a deeper understanding of this era, and it also has great reference significance for my future development and career choices. It is very worth reading.

The writing is very good. It is completely based on the current situation of college students. It has a lot of inspiration and is worth reading again and again.

I gained a lot from this book. Not only did I gain a lot of practical advice, it also gave me a clearer and deeper understanding of myself. It is a good book worth reading carefully and pondering over and over again.

It goes straight to the heart and makes people truly feel the portrayal of people's lives in all walks of life. We are confused about our future jobs when we graduate.

Many good examples, very inspiring to me

I have benefited a lot. Thank you to the author. I regret not encountering this book earlier!

This book was very helpful to me. It pointed out the misunderstandings that I had never heard in college. The postgraduate entrance examination is not suitable for everyone. For example, I don't like academics. I want to make money and don't want to stay in school anymore. I understand the importance of soft power (emotional intelligence, communication and expression skills, learning ability, innovative thinking, etc.) And no longer stick to superficial professional knowledge.
