3 benefits of taking notes! A must-see for scholars and writers!

Have you ever been in such a situation?

After reading many books, people ask you, which part of the book impressed you the most? What does the story line tell? What's your favorite line?

As a result, you find that you can't think of anything in your mind. Even if I just finished reading the book, I almost forget.

To be honest, this situation is very common. Even a professional scholar, it is difficult to digest immediately.

Some people will say that even though you can't remember them, the words don't flow into the body. As Sanmao said, reading more books changed his appearance.

The question is, shouldn't the purpose of reading be to learn, master, and apply? Different books provide different answers. We are looking for related books to solve life's problems. If you forget after reading it, the book's meaning and author's value will also be lost.

So, as an ordinary person, how to absorb and stabilize the essence of the book. The answer is: take note!

Remember the old adage: good memory is worse than bad writing. Yes, no matter how good the head is, we need to write it down.

Why is taking notes so important? Because it has 3 benefits!

One, it's easier to understand

When we read books, we see more with our eyes and think with our brains. This type of reading allows us to read ten lines at a glance. However, just seeing and thinking cannot make us understand.

Only when we record our own understanding and confusion in words can we absorb and understand it on a deeper level.

2. Easily gather inspiration

Making a good notebook isn't just about gathering questions, it's also about gathering inspiration. For example, in the process of reading a book, your brain suddenly comes up with an idea. Then, you can just write it down.

At the same time, you can extract these inspirational sentences and write them down, so that the next time you see them, you can understand the source of the inspiration.

3. Convenient for immediate use later

Usually, many of the writers we see have the habit of quoting famous aphorisms. Some people even record jokes and funny sentences on the Internet. The advantage is that when you use it later, you can use it right away.

At the same time, when we record beautiful sentences in a notebook, we once again deepen our memory and understanding of those words.

Summary: Notebooks are the ultimate proof of our success in learning. If you feel that you are someone who forgets when you see him, then from now onwards, have a notebook, pen and write down all your understandings. Read together, record together!
