Outline of Paradigms of Independence
Thoughts
今天嘗試把Outline寫下來,因為每次做周末大總結的時候,又返回去看一遍,花得時間很多,主要是平時沒有針對一天的閱讀情況做總結,所以只能都推到周末再做,但那樣就變成一個苦差事。寫一個Outline對文章有一個框架,這樣不至于看過了,除了一些感受之外,其他就沒什么印象了。
今天給我最多的感觸便是P problems are pc opportunites,很多時候自己都是不想解決問題,選擇逃避問題,殊不知問題可以是轉化成機會,一個可以鍛煉自己解決問題,處理各種麻煩事的機會。逃避問題只會堆積更多的問題,只會后患無窮。反過來改變一下心態,把問題轉化成機會,就有動力去做事情了。
