[In the future, the gap between people will be the gap in concentration! Li Xiaolai's new book will be released in 2025! People who can stay focused for a long time will be more competitive no matter what they do.
The latest masterpiece of Li Xiaolai, the enlightener of the concept of wealth freedom in China, this book conveys a basic understanding: people who can continue to focus for a long time will be fundamentally more competitive no matter what they do.
There is evidence that attention deficits arise from organic damage to the brain. Take a look around and you will easily come to the conclusion that "the hijacking of the brain by mobile phones will become increasingly severe." This book first breaks down for you how the brain works to maintain concentration, and then gives simple (but not easy) solutions. For example, children should not look at mobile phones for long periods of time until they reach a certain age. It is best to develop hobbies such as sports, reading aloud, and music to lay a solid foundation for the future and become a natural winner.
Reader comments
It is a short and concise book. After reading it, I felt that I gained a lot and took notes. But as the author said, you must retell it in your own words and from your own perspective in order to transform the content knowledge into your own, and make your brain believe that "I came up with it myself", so that you can believe it. So know this book. After reading this book, I know it, but there is still a long way to go before I can get it and do it. I will continue to practice "retelling".
I also think this book is very suitable for reading when you are relaxed or in a bad mood.
For me, it is a new understanding. I am very grateful to the author. I have learned a lot and continue to study hard.
A book on how to improve your concentration, covering both theory and practical methods. The book explains everything from dopamine to values, and from the internal mechanism of the brain to the external environment of the brain. It turns out that the essence of weak attention is the lack and fragility of values, and the article contains two important methods: 1) Meditation is not the only way to improve your concentration. Anything that can relax you and immerse yourself in it for a long time will help improve your concentration. 2) If you want to change your behavior, the most important thing is to repeat it, keep repeating it, until you believe it is true, it will be internalized in your subconscious and become a part of you. Very helpful for people who want to improve their self-focus.
Long-term sustained focus is the foundation of competitiveness.
Concentration is not a matter of willpower, but the natural result of clear values, physiological support, and restructuring of habits;
Attention is the scarcest and most valuable means of production for individuals.
[Inattention is subjective laziness]
Why do modern people generally feel "lack of concentration"?
The brain damage mentioned here is not a physical structural lesion, such as a brain disease, but the damage to the brain's neural connections caused by long-term fragmented information stimulation.
Instant message push and frequent switching of multi-tasking modes on mobile phones and other devices;
Let the prefrontal lobe of the brain, the core area responsible for concentration, get used to passive reception rather than active focus;
It causes changes in synaptic connection patterns, making it difficult to maintain deep concentration.
For example, many people are used to watching short videos while working, and their brains quickly jump between different pieces of information;
Over time, the ability to actively control attention weakens, just as muscles deteriorate from lack of exercise.
How to improve concentration
Concentration has a physiological basis, but it can also be reshaped.
Neuroplasticity exists in the brain, even if neural connections are disrupted due to fragmented stimuli;
Through continuous training, such as fixed-duration focus tasks and mindfulness meditation, neural pathways can also be repaired and prefrontal lobe function can be strengthened.
And for children:
Prevent children from being exposed to mobile phones prematurely and reduce the interference of fragmented stimulation in the development of brain neural networks;
Cultivate hobbies such as sports, reading aloud, and music. Sports promote oxygen supply and neuroplasticity to the brain, reading aloud strengthens the connection between the language center and attention, and music trains multi-sensory information processing capabilities;
It can not only improve physical fitness, but also allow the brain to establish a stable concentration mode in a natural environment, so that it can be more focused on complex tasks in the future.
Values
The essence of concentration is to be clear about what is most important and have clear values. Temptations will naturally fail without any need for deliberate restraint.
Ask yourself every day: What is more important? What's most important?
Put values first, screen behaviors with answers, and reject irrelevant consumption.
Sleep > Exercise > Relaxation > Study > Work, ensure physical strength first, and then talk about mental strength.
Summary
Attention is the only resource that can be controlled independently, is non-renewable, and directly produces value;
Time is uncontrollable, money is renewable, and life will go wherever you put your attention.
The author has his own practical experience, which makes it feel real when reading. It is not a superficial transfer of second-hand knowledge, data argumentation that makes people sleepy, and case studies. The writing is straightforward and very enjoyable to read!
The author is Chinese, so he can better understand the difficulties faced by the Chinese people.
Very useful.
First I listened to the book, then I read it, and finally I read the second half of the book.
Naturalism
When I first saw the title of this book, I thought it was about teaching you how to improve concentration. I didn't expect it to be so in-depth. It tells the truth about concentration from the human body's dopamine and various body systems.
When reading this book, you will connect your trivial thoughts together. It is also short and can be read quickly. The author really has an in-depth understanding and thinking about life. Thanks to the author for sharing this valuable knowledge and insights.
It's never too late to read this book.
Focus is the rarest quality in today's era.
Since there are so many temptations and distractions that are unimaginable, it is even more worthwhile to reflect and examine the state of one's concentration. How one's concentration is can be said to be a person's cultivation.
This book broadened my horizons and made me aware of the dopaminergic system, the dangers of hijacking the dopaminergic system, and the importance of attention to a person. Each of us has limited time, energy, attention, and willpower. We must accept ourselves and use our limited attention to learn important skills, such as learning to use words and learning to retell. By repeating important knowledge over and over again, you can make your brain believe that you have learned it. Reviewing this book is also a brave attempt.
This book is worth reading over and over again. It is short, superb, and very to the point. It is quite rewarding. I read the physical book once and the e-book twice. It is really good and worth revisiting again and again. The book's scientific theories about the cerebral cortex and parents' control over their children's mobile screens are all very realistic.
It's fascinating, especially able to catch people's attention, and it's also very practical. It can inspire people from two aspects of things, such as the fear and brainwashing mentioned in this book. Wouldn't it be great if it was used to help yourself?
It greatly improves people's awareness
It's not your fault that you lack concentration, it was just stolen away from you. After reading this book, it's time to get your attention back.
Why do people want to take out their mobile phones and watch short videos whenever they have free time? Instead of doing something meaningful. The book gives a good explanation. As for the explanation, you will naturally understand it after reading it.
Some of the points the author mentions in the book are the importance of values, the importance of attention, from the hijacking of the dopamine system to how to improve concentration. The author answers some of the questions we encounter in our daily life in great detail in the book. Let's live a better life.
Very good book, I like to read books with scientific basis.
This is a very condensed, valuable and meaningful book. I will make a book promotion video for it.
This book gave me a lot of inspiration. I know the principle of addiction. People's attention is cut into pieces by videos. The author explains each argument in a simple and easy-to-understand way, which makes me understand one thing more deeply. The training of retelling after reading is very important. I have done it before, and it has definitely improved. If I don't insist on doing it, I should do more important things that can generate profits at the moment. Many people read to escape and avoid facing what they should do. It is worth reading this book.
The content of this book is explained in a simple and profound way, which can better improve our understanding of concentration and have a profound impact on our own life values and choices. At the same time, let us reflect on the logical relationships caused by some of our daily actions, so that we can better change our thoughts and take action. A book worth reading several times. Other related books by this author can be better read together in a continuous series.
Although this book analyzes the impact of concentration on people, I like the finishing touch at the end the most. Only by establishing correct values to guide one's life can a person avoid being lost in the trivialities of life. With firm values and self-discipline, how can fragile values support a slow life?
After reading, I always want to do something
Starting from July last year, I came into contact with the concept of brain science, and suddenly I found that the world is different. Many things can be explained, and I also understand that many things cannot be changed. Learning is a process of constantly exploring the world and myself, and enjoying the process. This book has once again deepened my understanding of cognition. What I read on paper will always be shallow, but I know that it must be done in practice.
Very useful advice. Electronic devices are harmful to ourselves, children, the elderly, and electronic devices in all directions, but we are happy with them. How stupid! With the explosion of information, we must reduce useless input, give our brains a break, and embrace content that truly makes us healthy.
Being true, objective, and close to reality can help you stay awake in this impetuous society. A book well worth reading again and again.
It is indeed a good book.
What a great book, worth reading
Or do books written by native speakers resonate with me?
There is a lot of knowledge that I have feelings about but haven't summarized.
What a good book, it helped me discover my own problems
