Hello everyone, I am Zhang Mengmeng sister.
Many sisters are asking me a question, that is, what books do you usually read, Sister Meng? I have also read a lot of messages from everyone, and I think that for reading books, choosing books is more important than reading books.
I often think about it, what books are worth recommending to everyone?
Today I would like to recommend you a book that I particularly like, and this is the one
The Power of The Moment
▼
As an entrepreneur, I was thinking about closing the company, and I didn't want to do it! The reason is simple, I think it's all because of the busy work, so it makes my body become broken.
But at that time I had an old friend named Peccenini, the global founder of Wall Street English, who is now in his 80s.
He came to my store at that time, I had an offline store at that time, he said to me, I gave you a treasure, I said what?
他说《The power of now》，就是这本书的英文版本，一本蓝色的封皮
At that time, I finished reading to tell the truth, although I graduated from the English major, I did not understand it after reading it, I think there are too many proper nouns here, what presence includes what being, which is a spiritual English exclusive vocabulary, I did not understand.
Later, I bought a Chinese version and studied it carefully, and its biggest feature was that it could quiet my manic heart.
I used to be a person with a particularly bad mood, I would get angry at every turn, I would lose my temper at every turn, you know that in fact, when I lost my temper, I would often use a sentence to flaunt myself, that is, it was easy to hold out mastitis if my temper did not come out.
So I was endless, expressing my emotional dissatisfaction with the people around me, so I offended a lot of friends, colleagues and family.
But when I finished reading this book, one of the biggest feelings was that a person, at any one time, could be divided into three parts, and one part was that when I just finished saying this sentence now, this sentence became the past in an instant.
So now I'm focusing, and when I'm recording this video, it's called the present, and then the next second comes to something called the future, but there are a lot of people who spend a lot of time and attention focusing on the past and worrying about the future.
Do you think about whether you worry about the future every day?
For example:
The future can not make money, the future can not marry out
Future husband cheating or future health is not good
The future may be a collapse of life
......
So many people spend a lot of time and energy to focus on the future, and some people worry about the past, such as I regret doing this, regretting when you did that...
So when your attention is a 100% battery, you divide 20% of the attention to the past, and 30% of the attention to the future, how much attention do you have at the moment?
You only have 50%, you pay attention, when you only have fifty percent of your attention to pay attention to the present, whether it is your life competitors or life companions, they are PK with you with eighty or ninety percent of the attention.
If you only have 50% attention to each thing, then you think that there are a series of events in life, then in a series of events, you actually lose everything, from this point of view, paying attention to the present is actually the most important thing to do.
So in 2016, after I finished reading the book, I started to pay attention to my present moment. For example, I increased the exercise thing, and now 5 years, you see my hands are full of cocoons, that is, boxing, I have begun to enter the professional competition, from the past I was just a hobby of strengthening and losing weight, and now I have entered the professional track, then this is the first item I added.
The second is to increase this kind of immersive conversation time with family members every week.
Do you know that I talked to my family in the past? It's just looking at the phone and doing this and doing that, but now that I'm starting to do these things, I'm going to focus on thinking about it.
I was thinking that I was doing this at the moment, I must be able to do this 100% All in this way, so I never use my mobile phone to talk to my family, the mobile phone must be in the living room, it cannot be brought into the bedroom, so I have this principle.
In addition, I used to like mote task multitasking and multithreading management, doing this while also doing that. Now when I do this, I'm never distracted, I have this "philosophy of seemingly slow", but I really want to tell you that it's really fast, because you can do everything fast and good, and get it done well in the process.
So it didn't take long, I had multiple nodules in my thyroid gland to heal in less than a year, so many people asked me: What did Sister Meng do? Later, I published the Energy Management Handbook myself, which actually told me about my entire healing experience.
But what I really want to share with you is that this book is actually. I think Mr. Eckhart Tolle, who is a famous spiritual master in the United States, told us with his wisdom in life. How can you focus only on the present moment, my assistant some time ago this book was hers, and then she read it, and she told me that I didn't understand it.
Later, I did my own reading project, and then I told you about 25 books a year, because many people actually read this book, at the beginning you read it, when you opened it, I asked my assistant to read her sister Meng I didn't understand, I said you are serious and continue to read. Then she read it again, and she said that I haven't read it yet, but it's actually a particularly difficult book to read.
Later, I took everyone to read it little by little, I first talked about it for an hour or so, and then she would find that she said that Sister Meng really needed to guide this book, and I was wondering why I would often do the guide work, in fact, what I especially hope is that those books that are particularly helpful for the enlightenment in life, the books that you may have ignored in the past, but they are actually valuable to our lives.
So this book "The power of now" I recommend to a very large number of people, I once purchased 100 copies myself, I saw a friend to send, the reason is that I think, if you are anxious at the moment, or if you have a lot of problems at the moment can not understand, or you have encountered difficulties in life.
Well, at this time, you should stop, not to say that you do not work hard, but to stop and think about whether you have the focus on the present moment, this book can bring you spiritual wisdom and recommend it to you.
