So what is entropy? What is entropy increase? Entropy is the invalid energy in the system, which is used to measure the degree of chaos in the system. Among them, the degree of chaos can be understood as the effectiveness of available energy in the system, because energy will gradually change from reversible to irreversible, and eventually it will be transformed into heat energy with the lowest energy. Entropy increase means that the chaos of an isolated system will increase continuously without external work.
It must be said that the principle of entropy increase (that is, the second law of thermodynamics) has a very high status. Together with Einstein's mass-energy equation (mass and energy are equivalent) and Newton's law, it can be called the three greatest formulas in human history.
Entropy increase is the ultimate law, from the universe to human beings, everywhere. It is the witness of the final end of the universe-"hot silence", and it is also the potential figurine maker of people's routines.
Why is it easier to give up than to persist? Why is self-discipline more painful than laziness? The reason for this is that the former needs your efforts, while the latter only needs you to maintain the existing state or even deteriorate, and the process of entropy increase is easy and effortless. Because objects will spontaneously change from order to disorder and from "good" to "bad" over time. And if you want to go against this inevitable process, that is, to reduce entropy, you must do work and pay, so you will feel pain. Self-discipline in life, such as reading regularly, exercising regularly and drinking water. All belong to entropy reduction, which is a counterbalance to entropy increase.
Since the two premises of entropy increase are isolated system and no work. Then we can start from these two aspects.
1, active work, away from equilibrium.
In fact, we can live high because we don't want to be in a state of balance, that is, a state that makes us feel comfortable. We are unwilling to be extraordinary, and we don't always work hard. We have studied hard since childhood, and it is a process of entropy reduction by receiving ordered information entropy.
The best job is actually exercise. Yes, life lies in sports. We should actively ingest low-entropy substances, energy, information and so on. In this process, we clean ourselves up by absorbing new substances and discharging useless substances and information.
When you feel confused when your emotions are complicated, try to sort out your emotions or absorb good positive emotions. Specific methods can be implemented through exercise, running and communication with people.
When the brain is confused, empty it. You can take a rest and look into the distance, or you can write down what you want to do on paper and make a list of tasks. In this way, what I thought before will suddenly appear in front of me, and naturally I will not feel confused, but will be organized.
2. Open systems
In fact, if you want to open up, the most important thing is not to dwell on the past, don't dwell on past thoughts, past troubles and past emotions. On the contrary, we should try to embrace the outside world, travel (new environment), read books (acquire new knowledge) and make friends (meet new people).
In fact, it is nothing more than letting yourself flow and contact unfamiliar fields. This also taught us that we should always update and learn to explore new knowledge and things, and the benefits are self-evident.
