Siheyuan: Returning from studying abroad, with extraordinary understanding

In Fang Yongji's dormitory.

The conflict between Fang Yongji and Ding Dajiang was resolved in this way.

Their comradeship was restored.

Everyone began to quiet down and listened carefully to Fang Yongji's explanation of the difference between experience and rules.

"Everyone knows what experience is. It means that after doing something, one has a rough memory of it. If one does it several times, the impression will be more profound. Then we say that he has experience."

"And what is a law? In simple terms, it is the unchanging connection within things themselves. For example, 0, these ten numbers are arranged from smallest to largest."

"You can easily find the pattern between them. Add 1 to the previous number to get the next number. This is a pattern. With this pattern, we can easily get the next number."

"For example, the changing of seasons and the changes of day and night, these things that have never changed, are also rules."

"Laws are not subject to human will. In other words, they cannot be changed just because you want them to be. Nor do they cease to exist just because you say you haven't discovered them."

“As for experience, different people have different experiences and different ways of doing things, so everyone’s experience is different.”

"Do you all understand this explanation?"

Fang Yongji stopped and let everyone digest it.

"I understand a little bit. I'll think about it myself."

"Yes! If you think for yourself, you will have a deeper understanding."

Seeing that everyone was thinking, Fang Yongji did not disturb them, but waited quietly.

This scene was so familiar. It was exactly what happened to him in the afternoon. He sorted it out in his mind and finally understood it.

Ding Dajiang thought for a while and finally understood the meaning of the two words: experience and rules.

However, when he thought about the leader's suggestion at the meeting that we should sum up experience and rules, he still didn't quite understand:

"Comrade Fang Yongji, the leaders often say that summarizing experience and summarizing laws, according to your explanation, it should be said that experience is not important, and laws are the most important."

"Then I have a question, why does the leader still talk about summarizing experience?"

"Yeah! I have the same question!"

“Experience and rules are different, but why are they often put together?”

"Does that mean we can just summarize the rules instead of summarizing the experience?"

"Yes, when I was in the company before, I was told to exchange experiences with the victorious company instead of exchanging rules. Why is that?"

The roommates raised their questions one after another.

Fang Yongji listened carefully, and then explained:

“Experience is a must because it is part of our practice. If you don’t have experience and have not experienced it yourself, it is impossible for you to do something well.”

“And the law is hidden in a thing. It is the internal connection of things. When you do something and gain experience, you will find that if you want to do it well, you must do this step first and then that step.”

"You can only do it well if you follow certain steps, instead of doing it randomly. This specific step is actually a rule."

"Leaders often emphasize that summarizing experience means that we need to summarize how this thing was done well. Let us recall which step was done well and which step was not done well, why it was done well, and why it was not done well?"

"In the process of summarizing, we will slowly discover the rules and summarize the rules, so that we can do things quickly and well."

After Fang Yongji's explanation, everyone finally understood.

"So that's how it is! No wonder leaders always ask us to summarize our experiences and rules. I usually don't know how to summarize, but now I understand."

"Yes, I found that I can't do things as well or as fast as others. It's obviously the same thing, but others do it well and quickly. It turns out that I haven't summarized my experience! In addition, I need to find comrades who are doing well, exchange experiences and learn more."

The roommates shared their own experiences and ideas, instantly turning the dormitory into an experience exchange meeting.

"In fact, it is easier to summarize experience than to discover and summarize patterns. We can all do it. Moreover, experience varies from person to person. Having experience in doing one thing does not mean you have experience in doing another thing."

"That's why leaders tell us to communicate more and summarize experiences. As for the rules, we need to think and summarize more deeply."

"Because the law involves one thing - migration. It is useful in this case, and can also be used in other cases."

"For example, gunpowder can be used to make bullets, grenades, and even cannons. It was discovered that when it is sealed, it will explode when ignited."

At the experience exchange meeting, Fang Yongji carefully talked about what he had learned.

My roommates accepted this baptism and immediately felt that they had learned a lot.

At this time, Ding Dajiang recalled the general method that Fang Yongji had first talked about, and he found that the method was a law for understanding things.

He recalled the first time he learned to shoot.

At that time, when the veteran taught him, he didn't let him learn to shoot right away.

Instead, tell him what kind of gun it is, which is the safety, how to load the gun, how to hold the gun.

At that time, he didn't listen carefully at all, he was always thinking about shooting.

I was dismissive of the veteran's explanation, thinking it was useless and it would be better to let him get started directly.

When he first started, he did not listen to the veteran's advice and fired his first shot, which not only missed the target but also numbed his shoulder.

After a few more shots, his shoulder couldn't take it anymore.

After realizing that target shooting was not easy, he began to learn from the veterans.

After serious study, his marksmanship gradually improved.

If you think carefully about the entire process of learning to shoot, it is inseparable from the four aspects of what, why, how to do it, and constantly summarizing experience.

Furthermore, he found that every time he learned something new, he could not do without these four aspects.

This is the case when learning new things, and it is the same when he teaches others how to do things.

This is simply a universal formula!

After Ding Dajiang discovered the correctness of this rule, he immediately regretted it.

He realized that he had underestimated the abilities of international students. If it weren't for Lin Changqing, an international student, who pointed out this rule, no one would have realized it.

They will not even tell it out loud so that everyone can master and use it.

He should try to go to class so that he can learn more.

This made him envy Fang Yongji even more.

However, he was not jealous because Fang Yongji would teach him what he had learned.

Although he did not study with Lin Changqing in person, he still had the opportunity to learn.
