When writing this article, I looked up at my watch: 16:03.
/kloc-get off work at 0/7: 00, and there are still 57 minutes before getting off work, which means there are self-study classes; Can you write a book review of 1500 words in one class?
A little hung up. Although the book is finished, some experiences and notes in the reading process are scattered, and the mind map is not exported on the mobile phone. Some reading notes are written on the pages, some in notebooks, some in "Douban Reading Notes" and some in "Hammer Notes"; Besides, it's no use just having so many materials. We should integrate materials into words according to a certain logical relationship. Well, I'm a little sweaty just thinking about it.
I can't be distracted, so write quickly. "Ding-dong ..." But at this moment, an APP push popped up on the mobile phone screen. In order to concentrate on my work and study, I set all social software such as WeChat as "no message reminder", but there are more and more apps on my mobile phone, and one or two reminders will pop up from time to time. ...
This is my normal state now-find time to read and write after work every day. However, time is always not well used; The speed of reading and writing articles is too slow ... once the slogan shouted "slash", it is really not easy to practice now; I have set up countless flags for myself, but I can never finish them. No, I've been reading this book of130,000 words for five days, and the book review is still stumbling. Look at the talents on the Douban book review list. Some excellent book reviewers can even submit several book reviews a day. How did they do it?
Speed! Speed! Speed! They must read and write articles much faster than me! As for me, I am always chased by time and death line. Fortunately, the book I am reading is about how to improve the speed of daily work, reading and sorting out materials-Zero-second work: McKinsey's working skills to solve everything with speed published by Houlang Publishing Company. Do you also care about the experience I mentioned above? Then come and read this book with me.
The picture comes from the internet.

Zero-second work: McKinsey's working technology of solving everything with speed is the latest masterpiece of the author of the best-selling book Zero-second Thinking. Chiyu Yuji "used to work at McKinsey on 14, and one person was in charge of the 7- 10 project at the same time; After starting my own business, I also participated in the management reform of several enterprises, giving more than 50 speeches every year ... The key to the author's ability to complete such a huge workload lies in his work philosophy:' the speed of thinking can be infinitely accelerated' and' the speed of work can be infinitely improved'. "
How can we complete such a huge workload and make many tasks proceed as orderly as the author? The purpose of this book is to teach readers "the secret of how to complete a huge workload and efficient work", which is the author's "dry goods sharing" to "improve work speed".
The author of "Working in Zero Seconds" teaches us to "improve work efficiency", but he is not blindly eager for quick success and instant benefit. In his view, in order to improve the work speed, we must "have a clear aim", and the first thing to do is to find out why we are "slow". The article "On Knowing and Doing" by Zhuzi School said: "Don't pay attention to names. You must ask why. " In other words, we should not only know why, but also know why. At the beginning of Zero-second Work, the author first asked a question: "Why is the work efficiency so low?" ?
Then, starting from the working status of Japanese social and business people, he sorted out the "reasons for the slow progress of work":
After finding the reason, the author repeatedly stressed the importance of improving the work speed: "When the speed is improved, other work and business will be completed in an orderly manner, and finally, to some extent, this work can be easily started at some time before the deadline, thus forming a virtuous circle."
I remember when I was a child, I often heard a folk proverb: "Shave your head early, cool down early", which talked about the necessity of rushing early in everything, not rushing late. Whether for students who are still studying or employees who are working hard in the workplace, if everything is completed as soon as possible, there will be more time to repair and correct, and there will be no psychological oppression of death; Working in a relaxed state of mind is obviously better than working under a huge psychological burden, which is what the author calls a "virtuous circle".
After clarifying the importance of speed, in the following chapters, the author expounds "eight principles of improving work speed" and various improvement methods without reservation, hoping that "more people can personally experience the happiness brought by finding points that can be improved in work and improving work speed."
As shown in my mind map drawn in the process of reading this book, the author introduced the experience of "doing everything in detail" in all aspects of business work. In addition to some easy-to-popularize methods, he even explained in detail the way he is used to saving dates when keeping files, and the expansion of "personal common vocabulary". Why is such a "mother-in-law" introduction such a subtle experience? Because, after personal "experiments", the author found that using these methods can save minutes or even seconds! And think about how many times you can't even control your hand to touch your mobile phone, whether at work or at school?
I remember that when I read Rose Benedict's Chrysanthemum and the Knife, I was amazed at the "unreasonable" and "contradictory characters (such as loving beauty and being martial, being polite and aggressive, liking the new but being stubborn, being obedient and being unruly, etc.). )"; After reading the book Working in Zero Seconds, the author Xiong Ji Chiyu's "Honey Persistence" in "Improving Work Speed" and his meticulous and patient attitude of almost irrationally looking for ways to improve work speed have repeatedly amazed me-the author is almost teaching readers how to prepare for meetings, how to use whiteboards in meetings, how to write emails, how to reply emails and how to do things for themselves.
This meticulous, patient and tireless work is simply "unreasonable" (here is a compliment). And isn't this an "initial heart" that we need to maintain in the torrent of informationization? Isn't this the road to self-cultivation that a qualified workplace person should take in the face of work?
