Brother Meng's direction is to talk about how to broaden his horizons, expand his ideas and learn something in his college life. Just now, Mr Ghost (who just entered Wuhan University and became Wu Dalang) asked me some questions about how to spend my college life. Therefore, this article is also written for him, which may answer some questions he will encounter. To sum up, there are the following eight points for the time being (I have tried my best to keep these experiences from being vague when writing, and I still hope to tell the truth if they are not satisfactory) 1. Whether we can cultivate an open mind and way of thinking, whether we can really broaden our horizons and improve our thinking, whether we can have an open mind, a reliable independent world outlook and a rational way of thinking, and whether we can abide by basic principles are all prerequisites. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, people's open mind, peaceful, moderate, pragmatic and rational way of thinking and aesthetic taste were one of the reasons why they created advanced material civilization and splendid culture and reached an unprecedented height. In this respect, people's endowments are different. I don't know sister Meng's innate conditions and nurture. However, as a person who has just entered the university from rural areas and small towns, he can suddenly have a much broader learning ocean and different social experiences, and there is still a lot of room for exercise the day after tomorrow. The specific methods are the last few. 2. Getting information that helps to train the mind through the Internet or books Talking about reading in the Internet age seems a bit outdated, and the frequency of my own reading has also been greatly reduced. So I'm not just talking about reading. I'm talking about getting information that helps to train the mind through various channels, including the Internet and paper books and periodicals. Meng Xiong has a good reading habit. I believe this good habit should always exist for Meng Xiaomei. What should the university study? Aside from practical professional courses, practical skills such as language or IT, I, who was born in the liberal arts and consciously benefited from it, would like to make such a recommendation: (1) I should at least read some literature, so that I can maintain my eloquence and ability to master words, and also maintain proper aesthetic taste. At least one or two books a semester, not many. (2) Read more historical things (especially some classics that put forward different perspectives from middle school textbooks), so as to form a macro vision, establish a view of development, movement and connection in the depth of history, make people have a better insight into human nature and social laws, and also make things you encounter or observe more open and transparent. If some convincing historical cases are accumulated, it will also be beneficial to enhance oral eloquence and thinking logic. (3) Look at the introduction to philosophy and things like that. There is a concept between the views of several schools and the general history of philosophy, and then look back at reality with the impression formed in my mind. If you happen to be a person who likes to think about the abstract general laws behind things, you will find that many things in life have not escaped the philosopher's summary. Moreover, the ability of logical thinking can be maintained and improved by openly and fairly absorbing the views of several schools. (4) As a bachelor of economics, I think economics has made me smart. Of course, I will solemnly recommend books on economics. This is a good tool for thinking training and practical knowledge. Even reading entry-level economic essays, economic essays or other popular books, learning the way of thinking, doing some thinking and even writing will make people smart. (5) You can also look at the classics or cases of management to make yourself closer to the business society and times. 3. Fully investigate and consult to understand the future as soon as possible. When I started looking for a formal senior internship in my junior year, I lamented that freshmen and sophomores lacked attention and analysis on information about the future, and there would be no clear and reliable planning. When I was a freshman, I took the initiative to learn more about employment, further studies, study abroad and other information through the internet, so that I could have a general understanding of the choices I might face in the future. Then, according to my own interests and conditions, I made a realistic positioning as soon as possible, made a strategic route, and gave myself a basic planning axis. Even if it takes a semester, it's worth it. Otherwise, like some of my classmates and I, we will lose some calmness and lofty aspirations when making choices, and at the same time sigh, "I knew too little at the beginning, but now I understand it too late." Dealing with well-informed people and communicating with the right people can broaden people's horizons, not to mention bringing contacts and opportunities. When you are a freshman, you don't have to rush to fully contact the society. You can keep in touch and communicate with some recognized seniors with good reputation in all aspects. I have several female students who have done better in this respect than when I first started. I admire them very much. 5. After having a clear orientation and basic preparation, try to deal with people in the circle. After basically determining the industry, occupation and lifestyle you want to enter, you have to deal with people in the circle. Whether through online forums, blogs, circles or other forms, try to integrate but not indulge. Instead of being confused after graduation and starting from scratch, it is better to know more about the life, study and thinking mode of peers, learn more about the experiences and lessons of predecessors, and observe and understand with the help of good tools such as the Internet. Although it is easy to be frustrated as a student to do such a thing, it still has a position advantage relatively. If you are no longer a student, this identity premium no longer exists. 6. Join one or two interest groups and participate in on-campus activities and off-campus practices that meet the positioning. Whether you plan to find a job, start a business, go to graduate school or study abroad after graduation, having a little interest, a little specialty and some relevant qualifications will give you extra points in the breadth and depth of thinking, life vision and professional experience. Of course, there are many ways to obtain this qualification, and it varies from person to person-that is the optional knowledge that needs to be explored separately. By the way, remember to participate in some public welfare activities. Doing or doing such a thing will make you feel better and have a more positive attitude. 7. Don't hesitate when you can go out for a walk when travel conditions permit. After all, in addition to internal cultivation, people need to broaden their external knowledge. A well-informed person is also easy to open his heart, accept different things easily and be more popular with others. 8. About love When another classmate advised me to write this topic, I refused at first. First, because this is an emotional topic, people are emotional and girls are emotional animals. Talking about emotional topics with sensible animals in a rational tone is either unacceptable or easy to fall into fallacy. Second, because: I may not be qualified on this issue, and I may not have a say-because so far, I haven't started any formed love. (Children just asked me: Did you fall in love in college? I said no, and he asked, do you feel sorry? I replied: "from a rational perspective, it is not regrettable, because after all, it is a choice in its own rational state; But when you are emotional, there will still be a little loss, or loss also includes feelings mixed with desires. "However, I still thought about this topic last night, and I was just asked by Mr. Ghost again. I feel that the suggestions in this respect are practical and have a great influence on the expansion of people's personal horizons in their life choices, especially "love is blind". In particular, girls fall into blindness on this topic, which still has some negative effects. I am not a feudal guardian, nor a backward slave of chastity-I am an open-minded person now, and I can naturally be more advanced in sexual and emotional concepts. So I won't advise my younger brothers and sisters not to fall in love. But I would suggest: if possible, start a relationship as carefully as possible and try to avoid falling into a narrow and blind emotional situation. Of course, if fate comes, you can accept it calmly and don't have to avoid it deliberately. After all, this matter is as big as it is, and it will be like that if it is small. This is to persuade children not to be impatient, or they will be confused and lose themselves. When you can't see clearly where you are, how can you broaden your horizons? Any outward expansion is based on inner strength. Ok, the text of this proposition composition ends here. Appendix: Other questions asked by the child just now and my answers: The ghost said:
3. What Jung regretted most during his college years (especially during his freshman and sophomore years). Rong Yiren-Rong Yuan-Bellon-Dongshan Rongyu-Seven-tailed layman said: I didn't think much about it. The answer may be biased. 1. The most influential thing is: what field I pay attention to and what way of thinking I use when I participate in this field. 2. What books to read: I came from a liberal arts background, so I said I was a literary philosopher. I read a little literature books, so that I lost my eloquence and ability to control words. Philosophy should at least pay attention to general things and maintain and improve thinking ability; History can be seen more. Macro vision and development perspective can make people have a better insight into human nature and social laws, and can also see them more clearly. Recommended economics is a good tool for thinking training and practical knowledge. It's hard to say "the most" regret. Now I think about what I once regretted: I had the opportunity to study for a bachelor's degree at the National University of Singapore when I was a freshman, but I gave it up easily without thinking clearly; When I ran for the student union in my freshman year, I failed for the first time, so I have not set foot in this circle now. Although there are similar alternative activities, I took a different path. Then he asked the ghost and said,
Brother Rong thinks the student union is really important? The ghost said: I ran for public office some time ago. .
The ghost said, and I'm never going to set foot in it again. I cancelled it before I could answer him. I replied here: "It's not that important. But it varies from person to person and may not be universal. "
