What do you mean by involution?

I believe many college students have been exposed to the problem of involution. I'm a freshman now, and I'm lucky to be assigned to a dormitory. It's all "papers", so I personally have a deep understanding of internal papers. As for how to deal with the internal volume, we must first have a clear understanding of the internal volume, treat it objectively from both sides, and then deal with it.

First,? Definition of involution

Involution originally refers to a cultural pattern, which cannot be stabilized or transformed into a new form after reaching a certain final form, and can only become more complicated internally. However, many college students use it to refer to irrational internal competition or "voluntary" competition through the Internet. Simply put, it is the "expansion" of herd mentality in terms of efforts. The founder and CEO of Weijin Technology once sent a message to ridicule the inner volume:

"What is involution? In order to avoid being hunted by Jianghu, Lin Pingzhi has printed tens of thousands of copies of exorcism sword spectrum, which can be purchased after paying, and can be obtained by anyone in Jianghu. Suddenly no one bothered the Lins. However, people in the Jianghu are already in deep trouble: 1. If you don't practice, others will practice you to death; 2. Practice, not only bring a knife from the palace, but also practice after practice-because everyone else will do it. Finally, the rivers and lakes were disabled alive. " This metaphor explains involution very vividly and tells us that involution is actually the result of people's competitive psychology and conformity psychology. So now that we know what involution is, we should deeply understand what involution has brought us.

Second,? Influence of involution

Everything has two sides, involution is no exception. It has both good and bad effects.

First of all, the positive influence is to motivate college students. Many time-wasting students are anxious when they see many people reading, studying and researching. They are afraid that they will fall behind others and start to pick up books and study. In this chasing atmosphere, college students can really enrich themselves on the university campus, which is what everyone is happy to see. As mentioned above, my dormitory is so "rolled up" and the dormitory next door is also "rolled up", which is the positive impact.

At the same time, it also brings some negative effects. Mentioning in the positive effect will make students feel anxious and start learning. However, if the anxiety is too great, it will lead to students' psychological problems, and it is difficult to concentrate on their studies, thus falling into a disgusting cycle. In addition, some students follow the trend, some read books, some research, some take the postgraduate entrance examination, and have no own ideas, which leads to single thinking and no planning for the future. Involution has advantages and disadvantages, so we should treat it correctly, maximize the positive impact and minimize the negative impact.

Third,? How to deal with the inner volume

You know, when everyone is running, you will feel pressure if you don't run. This kind of pressure is normal, don't resist it. There is a girl in my dormitory who gets up at six every morning and doesn't go out until eleven in the evening. During that time, I was very anxious. I don't know if she is studying outside and what she has learned. I was always afraid that I would fall behind her a lot, so I learned her routine, which led to my reading upside down and I couldn't see anything at all. Then later I found that no matter whether I was in a hurry or not, she always insisted on her schedule and didn't change it, so I thought that other people's study was someone else's business and I couldn't change it. I can only change myself, so I began to make plans for myself, and the results were very different. When you can't change a thing, learn to accept it and find a suitable way to take it from yourself. So don't study blindly, find a suitable learning method and timetable.

So how to deal with the confusion caused by conformity? For example, if others look at high numbers and you want to read books, then think about those weak subjects; If others do textual research and you want to take the exam, then you must think about what certificate is most useful for you in the future and has the highest gold content; When others are preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination, you should think about whether you will continue your studies or start an internship in the future. When you want to do the same kind of things with others, you should think about which aspect of this kind of things suits you best, so as to minimize the negative impact of involution.
