Never watch your mobile phone on the subway.

Subway is an important means of transportation for people to and from work. In the first-tier cities of Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, the average time for people to commute by subway is about two hours. And the subway runs smoothly, which is very suitable for watching mobile phones.

However, don't watch your mobile phone on the subway.

Why?

First of all, divergent thinking and concentrated thinking.

The human brain has two modes of thinking, divergent thinking and concentrated thinking.

Divergent thinking: it is a mode when the brain is relatively relaxed. In this mode, knowledge will be randomly associated. Just like wandering in a messy library, you may draw attention to that book.

Concentrated thinking: it is a way of thinking that people concentrate on understanding, understanding, remembering and solving problems. In this mode, people's attention will be highly focused on one point. Just like looking for management books in a messy library, it is very tiring to find one book after another.

Therefore, the advantage of divergent thinking is that it is possible to think of unexpected solutions.

And many times, in the focused thinking mode, I can't think of a solution to the problem, but in the divergent thinking mode, I immediately have a flash of light and think of the crux of the problem.

Taking the subway is a good time to enter the divergent thinking mode. Maybe I can think of a good idea.

If you want to control the direction of divergent thinking, you can first focus on the problem you want to diverge and pay attention to it, not just think about it. Then let the brain enter divergent thinking.

When you take the subway in the morning, you can think about what to do today first, and then your brain will spread your thinking mode. Start thinking differently according to what you want to do today.

After working on the subway, think about the problems you encountered or learned today, and then enter the divergent thinking mode.

Entering divergent thinking mode is also a process to rest the brain.

Take the subway-go to work-take the subway

Divergent thinking (brain rest)-concentrated thinking (brain work)-divergent thinking (brain rest)

When you brush your mobile phone, it will make your brain enter the focus mode, and your brain will not get a rest.

Take the subway-go to work-take the subway

Concentrate on thinking (mental work)-concentrate on thinking (mental work)-concentrate on thinking (mental work)

The brain doesn't get enough rest time. How to have outstanding performance at work and how to get a higher salary. So don't brush your mobile phone in a daze on the subway, it's better than brushing your mobile phone.
