I have been behind
single-view learning experience, and I meet the standards of a good student in the minds of most people: I won the first prize in the National Physics Competition in high school and was admitted to Tsinghua University ; then I was admitted to Hong Kong University of Science and Technology with a full scholarship without examination; then I went to Brown University to pursue a doctorate degree. Although
has not continued to do academic work, it has spread scientific knowledge on the Internet and has become one of the most influential science popularization experts.
If you only look at these superficial resumes, outsiders will probably think that I am very talented in mathematics and physics. It seems that my life has been quite smooth so far, but this is definitely not the case. In fact, I was once at the bottom of the trough when I was studying physics, which seemed to be my best.
When I first entered high school, I had many outstanding classmates around me, all of whom were the best students in the city. Compared to them, my physics and mathematics are very poor. This is not a modest statement. How bad is it? I only got 40 points for a 150-point physics test paper. It may be hard to imagine that this is a first prize in the national physics competition, with the results of the first prize.
At that time, I was almost giving up on the subject of physics. My feelings were the same as most people: I understood every sentence when reading the textbook, but at the beginning, I did the questions wrong and felt quite desperate. Let’s look at the students around me who have learned well, especially those "seed players" who were selected into the competition class by teachers as soon as they entered the school. I can only sigh and sincerely admire their IQ.
I have a good teacher
I want to ask how my transformation happened? I must say that I met a very good physics teacher, Mr. Xiong. Teacher Xiong is not just excellent in teaching. The key is that he has a professional attitude of not giving up on any student.
Facing a student like me who only scored 40 points, Teacher Xiong showed full concern and encouraged me to participate in the physics competition training. My thought at the time was: Is this teacher having some brain problems? How can a student with such poor grades be encouraged to participate in the competition? Even the director of class , , expressed opposition to me going to the competition class.
After I got the qualification for Tsinghua University, I asked Teacher Xiong this question specifically. Teacher Xiong's answer surprised me very much. He said:
"You got 40 points in the first exam, 150 points. Although it was very low, I got 80 points in the second exam. Although I failed, the improvement ratio reached 100%, so I think you have great potential." What did physics bring to me?
Teacher Xiong's answer was rough and not rough. Later he told me that he had said something similar to encouragement to many of his classmates, but I was the only one who took it seriously.
Of course, having a good teacher does not guarantee that you can go from a bottom student to a first place all at once. The process is quite difficult, but in fact it is not the kind of hard work that we usually think is the kind of hard work and reward. For the study of subjects such as physics and mathematics, its progress curve will give you a great sense of gain.
I would describe this sense of harvest like this: No effort will bring no rewards; no effort will bring no rewards; percent hard work will bring great rewards. For the study of disciplines such as physics, it improves your cognitive level and cognitive dimension of the world, and can change your way of thinking from the perspective of keeping up.
When you don’t understand it, it is really difficult for you, but once you understand it, it is integration. The "opening up the Ren and Du meridians" mentioned in martial arts novels is probably this feeling, because what you get is a qualitative improvement in the thinking level.
I once clearly remembered that when I was studying Gaussian theorem in electromagnetics, I didn’t understand it at first. Although from the current perspective, Gaussian theorem is a very basic theorem, it was a huge challenge to my understanding when I first learned it.
At this time, I have to play the spirit of fighting to the death. I remember that I was holding the book, flipping back and forth through the two pages of Gauss' theorem, paced back and forth in the corridor in front of the classroom for almost three hours. The moment I realized it later was an instant enlightenment.
looked back at the related topics. It was really a flying feeling, and I suddenly felt that the fog in front of me was completely dispersed. To understand the mind and see the nature is probably what this feeling is about.
So, let me tell you what physics has brought to me? I can only say that my understanding of physics can really make me feel that I have become a smart person, and I truly feel the improvement of wisdom. And this improvement is a jumping style, just like the quantum energy level, rather than a gradual process.
Most people may feel that advanced physics is very far away from our daily lives, it is a castle in the sky and something in an ivory tower. But I have gained too much benefit, too much wisdom, and too much cognitive upgrades from the process of learning physics.
So I can't wait to introduce the benefits I have gained to more people through my way. So there is this seemingly hardcore "Six Pole Physics" that is not difficult to understand.
I know how to talk about
It's like a person who wants to lose weight, he must be asking for experience from people who have been fat and have successfully lost weight, rather than learning from a person who is born thin.
The reason why I am confident in talking about physics is precisely because I have come all the way from a bottom student. During the learning process, I did not have any so-called talent and intuition to rely on, but I had to study physics in a solid manner with the most layman attitude.
So, I know in particular how to explain some of the most difficult knowledge to people who are not majoring in physics but are curious about physics, because that's how I taught myself at that time.
I deeply realize that because physics is the lowest connection between us and the world, the words "the way of the great is simple" are most appropriate to describe physics. Even if you have profound physics knowledge, the ideas in it will not be difficult to understand.
Those with high physical level are not able to directly understand complex concepts, but after long-term learning, they can quickly disassemble complex concepts into multiple simple concepts. People cannot directly understand complex concepts. It depends on whether you have the patience to disassemble, or whether there is someone who can disassemble them. Let you explain them clearly in an easy-to-understand way.
For example, I put the entire physics knowledge into six extreme situations that we can easily understand, including extremely fast, extremely large, extremely small, extremely cold, extremely hot, and extremely heavy. This is the simplification of complex systems.
This is exactly my original intention of developing the audio program "Six Pole Physics Class". Now this course is finally going to be exclusively launched in Himalaya , and it is during the Himalaya Technology Carnival (September 23 to 25). If you place an order to buy
now, you can also get a Xiaoya Nano smart speaker worth 198 yuan. If you are interested in upgrading your thinking and if you have a huge desire for knowledge, then I recommend you to take my course. Because your talent in this area has not been verified yet.
