As early as before I got this book, I had heard a friend talk about the two words of entropy increase, and at that time, I didn't know it very well, but I felt as if it was very advanced.
It was only recently after seeing this "Law of Entropy Increase" that I deeply understood that there was logic behind the original things.
Why we give up so easily, because persistence is hard;
Why we are so easy to be lazy, because self-discipline is difficult;
Why do we get fat so easily, because exercise is hard...
These seemingly unrelated connections are actually followed by the law of entropy increase.
The authors He Shengjun and Wang Yi take us together to understand the underlying logic of the problem and solve the most essential problem.
The law of entropy increase was first proposed by the physicist Clausius, who believed that heat always flows from high-temperature objects to low-temperature problems, revealing that things always go from order to disorder and eventually to extinction.
Entropy reflects the degree of chaos in a system, the more chaotic the system, the greater the entropy value; the more ordered the system, the lower the entropy value.
Cai Dingchen said: Life depends on negative entropy for a living.
Obviously, we accept the natural process of things moving from order to disorder, recognize that this is a normal natural phenomenon, and in order for the system to be in order, we must reduce the entropy value.
The room was messy, which is a manifestation of entropy. Tidy up the room and make it orderly, then you need to consume energy to do the work, in order to restore the neat effect.
Therefore, in order to reduce entropy, it is necessary to consume energy to turn disorder into order; only when there are constant "external forces doing work" outside the system, constantly reducing the dimension of input energy, then it is natural to accept this process.
This book proposes 11 laws of entropy reduction and teaches us to deal with troublesome life with ease.
There are 11 laws of entropy reduction, such as growth thinking, flow, Rosen effect, horse cang effect, compound interest effect, etc.
Here we focus on ways to reduce entropy for flow.
The flow of the heart is a warm current that guides me, as if I can drift up.
When a person enters the flow state, he will be boundless and very focused, and if the following four states appear, it means that he has entered the flow state.
1. Time flies, and you will not feel that time passes very slowly, as if a morning has passed in an instant;
2. Not being aware of other things, immersed in them, not being affected by other things, even when it is time to leave work;
3. It works automatically, everything seems to come naturally, and it is no longer felt that it is difficult. Just like a writer, writing naturally to the point every day, there is no need to do a lot of homework to force yourself to write, but writing is a must for homework, it will not feel difficult, and it will be full of joy after writing.
4. Feel happy, there will be a sense of fulfillment after completion, the heart is happy, and the joy will naturally flow.
If flow is such a good experience, how can we better enter when we can't enter the state of flow?
A learn to meditate
Studies have shown that 8 minutes of meditation at a time can quickly alleviate fatigued brains and various anxious negative behaviors.
The method of meditation is very simple and can be initiated anytime and anywhere, inhaling with the nose, exhaling with the mouth, focusing all the attention on the breath, focusing on the point of focus naturally, and then fatigue, anxiety and so on are slowly eliminated.
B Movement
Neuroscience has shown that exercise can effectively stimulate the brain to release endocaglin, which is a natural painkiller that can help the brain return to a relaxed state in time.
It's like a wound is the time of pain, and if there is painkiller at this time, it is not stopped in time.
C toggles the viewing angle
Simply put, it is to change a way of looking at the problem, the angle is different, and the way to solve the problem is different.
Recently, after receiving the salary, my friend found that the amount was not correct, dozens of yuan less than last month. So I reconciled with the financial side, and the first reply I got was to deduct dozens of dollars in taxes. Later, the local tax deduction threshold was to reach 5,000 yuan before the tax was deducted, and finally the docking personnel of the finance department had to admit that it was their dereliction of duty.
My friend asked me if the dozens of dollars would make the other party feel very calculated if I had been chasing people like this.
I reply: No. Taking the salary received in response is a normal behavior, and it is already very benevolent not to pursue her work negligence, and it is not that we are a calculating person, and we have not received much to get back to ourselves.
This is actually a different perspective to think about the problem, the angle is different, and the final method is of course different.
If it is the reason for the tax deduction, it is too wronged, and it is obvious that it is yourself who suffers.
Write to the end
The law of entropy increase runs through every point of life, and the reduction of entropy value is the homework we must do.
This also explains that fat is easy, exercise is difficult.
Because fat is the process of going to disorder, lying flat and eating can be, and exercise will consume physical energy, so it will be tired, which is why many people give up.
There are also many ways to reduce entropy, from work to life covers the entire process, it is recommended to start.
