How best to remember and apply in life what you read
- Fix key points, instructive information and ideas
Most of us, while reading a book or articles on the Internet, mechanically lead our eyes through the text and do not make any notes. Useful information is forgotten. If you capture what attracts your attention, then remember and use what you read in life.
Break down information into categories
When making notes, record where information can be used and why you liked it. Break it into the categories you need. For example: "Beautiful phrases", "Information for work", "Ideas that require implementation."Create a dossier
To better remember the book, create a dossier on it. You can do this in Evernote or somewhere else. Follow this pattern:Load the cover of the book.
Write in your own words what the book is about.
Write out all the quotes and key points.
Write down what ideas and thoughts you have when reading.
- Discuss what you read with your friends
Choose from your environment a person with polar views or non-standard thinking and discuss with him the book. So you not only pump the skill of analysis, learn how to formulate thoughts and remember what you read, but also look at the text differently.
- Write about what you read
One of the best ways to consolidate knowledge is to pass it on to someone. Having written about the book, we not only convey its meaning, but also enrich our own ideas and experiences.
